The LTC
®
3410-1.875 is a high efficiency monolithic syn-
chronous buck regulator using a constant frequency,
current mode architecture. Supply current during opera-
tion is only 26µA, dropping to <1µA in shutdown. The 2.5V
to 5.5V input voltage range makes the LTC3410-1.875
ideally suited for single Li-Ion battery-powered applica-
tions. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation,
extending battery life in portable systems.
Switching frequency is internally set at 2.25MHz, allowing
the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors.
The LTC3410-1.875 is specifically designed to work well
with ceramic output capacitors, achieving very low output
voltage ripple and a small PCB footprint.
The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and
eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. The
LTC3410-1.875 is available in a tiny, low profile SC70
package.

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 LTC3410E-1.875 is guaranteed to meet performance
specifications from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C
operating temperature 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:
LTC3410-1.875: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
)(250°C/W)
Note 4:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 5:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to
protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
