High Efficiency
Buck + VLDO Regulator
FEATURES

DESCRIPTION
The
LTC
®
3541-2
combines a synchronous buck DC/
DC converter with a very low dropout linear regulator
(VLDO
TM
regulator) and internal feedback resistor networks
to provide two output voltages from a single input volt-
age with minimal external components. When configured
for dual output operation, the LTC3541-2’s auto start-up
feature will bring the 1.875V buck output into regulation
in a controlled manner, prior to enabling the 1.5V VLDO
output without the need for external pin control. The 1.5V
VLDO/linear regulator output prior to 1.875V buck output
sequencing may also be obtained via external pin control.
The input voltage range is ideally suited for Li-Ion battery
applications powering sub-3.3V logic from 5V or 3.3V rails.
The synchronous buck converter provides a high efficiency
output, typically 90%. It can provide up to 500mA of output
current while switching at 2.25MHz, allowing the use of
small surface mount inductors and capacitors. A mode-
select pin allows Burst Mode operation to be enabled for
higher efficiency at light load currents, or disabled for lower
noise, constant frequency operation.
The VLDO regulator provides a low noise, low voltage
output capable of providing up to 300mA of output current
using only a 2.2µF ceramic capacitor. The input supply
voltage of the VLDO regulator (LV
IN
) may come from the
buck regulator output or a separate supply.

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 LTC3541-2 is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C. VLDO/linear regulator output is tested and specified
under pulse load conditions such that T
J
≈ T
A
, and are 100% production
tested at 25°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:
Minimum operating LV
IN
voltage required for VLDO regulation is:
LV
IN
≥ LV
OUT
+ V
DROPOUT
.
Note 4:
Minimum operating VIN voltage required for VLDO and linear
regulator regulation is:
V
IN
≥ LV
OUT
+ 1.4V.
Note 5:
T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature, T
A
, and power
dissipation, P
D
, according to the following formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 43°C/W)
Note 6:
The LTC3541-2 is tested in a proprietary test mode that connects
VBUCKFB to the output of the error amplifier. For the reference regulation
and line regulation tests, the output of the error amplifier is set to the
midpoint. For the load regulation test, the output of the error amplifier is
driven to the minimum and maximum of the signal range.
Note 7:
Measurement made in closed loop linear regulator configuration
with LV
OUT
= 1.5V, I
LOAD
= 10µA.
Note 8:
Measurement made in a proprietary test mode with slope
compensation disabled.
Note 9:
Measurement is assured by design, characterization and statistical
process control.
Note 10:
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.
