The LTC
®
3803-5 is a constant frequency current mode
flyback controller optimized for driving 4.5V and 6V-rated
N-channel MOSFETs in high input voltage applications.
The LTC3803-5 operates from inputs as low as 5V. Con-
stant frequency operation is maintained down to very light
loads, resulting in less low frequency noise generation
over a wide range of load currents. Slope compensation
can be programmed with an external resistor.
The LTC3803-5 provides
±1.5%
output voltage accuracy
and consumes only 240µA of quiescent current. Ground-
referenced current sensing allows LTC3803-5-based con-
verters to accept input supplies beyond the LTC3803-5’s
absolute maximum V
CC
. For simplicity, the LTC3803-5
can be powered from a high V
IN
through a resistor, due to
its internal 8V shunt regulator. An internal undervoltage
lockout shuts down the IC when the input voltage falls
below 3.2V, guaranteeing at least 3.2V of gate drive to the
external MOSFET.
The LTC3803-5 is available in a low profile (1mm) 6-lead
SOT-23 (ThinSOT
TM
) package.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LTC3803H-5 is guaranteed to meet specifications from –40°C
to 150°C. The LTC3803E-5 is guaranteed to meet specifications from 0°C
to 85°C with specifications over the –40°C to 85°C temperature range
assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process
controls.
Junction temperature (T
J)
is calculated from the ambient temperature T
A
and the power dissipation P
D
in the LTC3803-5 using the formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 230°C/W)
Note 3:
High junction temperatures degrade operating lifetimes. Operating
lifetime at junction temperatures greater than 125°C is derated to 1000
hours.
Note 4:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 5:
The LTC3803-5 is tested in a feedback loop that servos V
FB
to the
output of the error amplifier while maintaining I
TH
/RUN at the midpoint of
the current limit range.
Note 6:
Peak current sense voltage is reduced dependent on duty cycle
and an optional external resistor in series with the SENSE pin (R
SL
). For
details, refer to the programmable slope compensation feature in the
Applications Information section.
Note 7:
Guaranteed by design.
