The
LTC
®
3884/LTC3884-1
are dual output PolyPhase DC/
DC synchronous step-down switching regulator controllers
with an I
2
C-based
PMBus compliant serial interface.
The
controllers employ a constant-frequency current mode
architecture, together with a unique scheme to provide
excellent performance for sub-milliohm DCR applica-
tions. The LTC3884/LTC3884-1 are supported by the
LTpowerPlay
®
software development tool with graphical
user interface (GUI).
Programmable loop compensation allows the controller
to be compensated digitally. Switching frequency, channel
phasing, output voltage, and device address can be pro-
grammed both by the digital interface as well as external
configuration resistors. Additionally, parameters can be set
via the digital interface or stored in EEPROM. Both outputs
have independent power good indicators and
FAULT
function.
The LTC3884 has integrated gate drivers. The LTC3884-1
has three-state PWM pins to drive power blocks or DrMOS
power stages.
