The LTC
®
3736-2 is a 2-phase dual synchronous step-down
switching regulator controller with tracking that drives
external complementary power MOSFETs using few ex-
ternal components. The constant-frequency current mode
architecture with MOSFET V
DS
sensing eliminates the need
for sense resistors and improves efficiency. Power loss and
noise due to the ESR of the input capacitance are minimized
by operating the two controllers out-of-phase.
Pulse-skipping operation provides high efficiency at light
loads. 100% duty cycle capability provides low dropout
operation, extending operating time in battery-powered
systems.
The switching frequency can be programmed up to 750kHz,
allowing the use of small surface mount inductors and
capacitors. For noise sensitive applications, the LTC3736-2
switching frequency can be externally synchronized from
250kHz to 850kHz. An internal soft-start, which can be
lengthened externally, smoothly ramps the output voltage
during start-up.
The LTC3736-2 is available in the tiny thermally enhanced
(4mm
×
4mm) QFN and 24-lead narrow SSOP packages.

LTC3736-2
ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
The LTC3736E-2 is guaranteed to meet specified performance
from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating range
are assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical
process controls.
Note 3:
T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature T
A
and power
dissipation P
D
according to the following formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
•
θ
JA
°C/W)
Note 4:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 5:
The LTC3736-2 is tested in a feedback loop that servos I
TH
to a
specified voltage and measures the resultant V
FB
voltage.
Note 6:
Peak current sense voltage is reduced dependent on duty cycle to
a percentage of value as shown in Figure 1.
