DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
3773 is a high performance, 3-phase, triple output
synchronous step-down switching regulator controller
with output voltage power up/down tracking capability.
The controller allows for sequential, coincident or ratio-
metric tracking.
This 3-phase controller drives its output stages with 120°
phase separation at frequencies of up to 700kHz per phase
minimizing the RMS input current. Light load efficiency can
be maximized by using selectable Burst Mode operation.
The 0.6V precision reference supports output voltages
from 0.6V to 5V.
Fault protection features include output overvoltage, input
undervoltage lockout plus current foldback under short-
circuit or overload conditions.

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 LTC3773 is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls. T
J
is calculated from the ambient
temperature T
A
and power dissipation P
D
according to the following
formula.
LTC3773EG: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
x 95°C/W)
LTC3773EUHF: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
x 34°C/W)
Note 3:
All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device
pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground unless otherwise
specified.
Note 4:
The IC is tested in a feedback loop that adjusts V
FB
to achieve a
specified error amplifier output voltage (V
ITH
).
Note 5:
Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 6:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency. See Applications Information.
Note 7:
R
DS(ON)
limit is guaranteed by design and/or correlation to static
test.
Note 8:
The minimum on-time condition corresponds to an inductor
peak-to-peak ripple current of ≥40% of I
MAX
(see minimum on-time
considerations in the Applications Information section).
