The LTC
®
1778 is a synchronous step-down switching
regulator controller optimized for CPU power. The con-
troller uses a valley current control architecture to deliver
very low duty cycles with excellent transient response
without requiring a sense resistor. Operating frequency is
selected by an external resistor and is compensated for
variations in V
IN
.
Discontinuous mode operation provides high efficiency
operation at light loads. A forced continuous control pin
reduces noise and RF interference, and can assist second-
ary winding regulation by disabling discontinuous opera-
tion when the main output is lightly loaded.
Fault protection is provided by internal foldback current
limiting, an output overvoltage comparator and optional
short-circuit shutdown timer. Soft-start capability for sup-
ply sequencing is accomplished using an external timing
capacitor. The regulator current limit level is user program-
mable. Wide supply range allows operation from 4V to 36V
at the input and from 0.8V up to (0.9)V
IN
at the output.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life of
a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature T
A
and power
dissipation P
D
as follows:
LTC1778E: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 130°C/W)
Note 3:
The LTC1778 is tested in a feedback loop that adjusts V
FB
to achieve
a specified error amplifier output voltage (I
TH
).
Note 4:
The LTC1778E 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. The LTC1778I is guaranteed over the full – 40°C to 125°C
operating temperature range.
