LTC3708
Fast 2-Phase, No R
SENSE
Buck Controller with
Output Tracking
DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
3708 is a dual, 2-phase synchronous step-down
switching regulator with output voltage up/down tracking
capability. The IC allows either coincident or ratiometric
tracking. Multiple LTC3708s can be daisy-chained in ap-
plications requiring more than two voltages to be tracked.
Power supply sequencing is accomplished using an
external soft-start timing capacitor.
The LTC3708 uses a constant on-time, valley current mode
control architecture to deliver very low duty factors without
requiring a sense resistor. Operating frequency is selected
by an external resistor and is compensated for variations in
input supply voltage. An internal phase-locked loop allows
the IC to be synchronized to an external clock.
Fault protection is provided by an output overvoltage
comparator and an optional short-circuit shutdown timer.
The regulator current limit level is user programmable. A
wide supply range allows voltages as high as 36V to be
stepped down to 0.6V output.

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
reliabilty and lifetime.

Note 3:
The LTC3708 is tested in a feedback loop that adjusts V
FB
to
achieve a specified error amplifier output voltage (I
TH
).
Note 4:
Internal reference voltage is tested indirectly by extracting error
amplifier offset from the feedback voltage.
Note 5:
The LTC3708E 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.
Note 6:
