The LT
®
3460 is a general purpose step-up DC/DC con-
verter. The LT3460 switches at 1.3MHz, allowing the use
of tiny, low cost and low height capacitors and inductors.
The constant frequency results in low, predictable output
noise that is easy to filter.
The high voltage switch in the LT3460 is rated at 38V,
making the device ideal for boost converters up to 36V.
The LT3460 can generate 12V at up to 70mA from a 5V
supply.
The LT3460 is available in SC70 and SOT-23 packages.

OPERATIO
The LT3460 uses a constant frequency, current mode
control scheme to provide excellent line and load regula-
tion. Operation can be best understood by referring to the
block diagram in Figure 1. At the start of each oscillator
cycle, the SR latch is set, which turns on the power switch
Q1. A voltage proportional to the switch current is added
to a stabilizing ramp and the resulting sum is fed into the
positive terminal of the PWM comparator A2. When this
voltage exceeds the level at the negative input of A2, the SR

latch is reset turning off the power switch. The level at the
negative input of A2 is set by the error amplifier A1, and is
simply an amplified version of the difference between the
feedback voltage and the reference voltage of 1.255V. In
this manner, the error amplifier sets the correct peak
current level to keep the output in regulation. If the error
amplifier’s output increases, more current is delivered to
the output; if it decreases, less current is delivered.

OPERATIO
Feedback Loop Compensation
The LT3460 has an internal feedback compensation net-
work as shown in Figure 1 (R
C
and C
C
). However, because
the small signal characteristics of a boost converter change
with operation conditions, the internal compensation net-
work cannot satisfy all applications. A properly designed
external feed forward capacitor from V
OUT
to FB (C
F
in
Figure 2) will correct the loop compensation for most
applications.

The LT3460 uses peak current mode control. The current
feedback makes the inductor very similar to a current
source in the medium frequency range. The power stage
transfer function in the medium frequency range can be
approximated as:
G
P(s )
=
K1
,
s • C2
where C2 is the output capacitance, and K1 is a constant
based on the operating point of the converter. In continu-
ous current mode, K1 increases as the duty cycle de-
creases.
The internal compensation network R

mated as follows in medium frequency range:

crosses over 0dB far before f

, the phase margin will be
small. Figure 3 is the Bode plot of the feedback loop gain
measured from the converter shown in Figure 2 without
the feedforward capacitor C
F
. The result agrees with
the previous discussion: Phase margin of about 20° is
insufficient.
