  • 1MHz to 3MHz Programmable/Synchronizable Oscillator Frequency (2MHz Default)
  • Die Temperature Monitor Output
  • Thermally Enhanced 38-Lead 5mm × 7mm QFN and TSSOP Packages
  • Pin-Compatible with LTC3374
  • AEC-Q100 Qualified for Automotive Applications

The LTC3374A is a multioutput power supply IC consisting of eight synchronous 1A buck converters, all powered from independent 2.25V to 5.5V input supplies. An upgraded pin-compatible version of the LTC3374, the LTC3374A, has higher efficiency, improved output voltage accuracy and an added overvoltage (OV) indicator.

The DC/DCs may be used independently or in parallel to achieve higher output currents of up to 4A with a shared inductor. The common buck switching frequency may be programmed with an external resistor, synchronized to an external oscillator, or set to a default internal 2MHz clock. The operating mode for all DC/DCs may be programmed via the MODE pin.

To reduce input noise the buck converters are phased in 90° steps. Precision enable pin thresholds simplify powerup sequencing. The LTC3374A is available in a 38-lead 5mm × 7mm QFN package as well as a 38-lead exposed pad TSSOP package.

LTC3374AEUHF Demo Board | High Accuracy 8-Ch Parallelable 1A Sync Bucks; 2.25V ≤ VIN ≤ 5.5V, VOUT1 - VOUT8 = 1V to 3.3V @ 1A

Product Details

Demonstration circuit 2440A is an 8-output power supply featuring the LTC3374A with improved efficiency and accuracy compared to the LTC3374. The LTC3374A has eight 1A synchronous buck regulators each with an independent VIN supply that can range from 2.25V to 5.5V (the minimum VCC supply voltage is 2.7V). The input range of the LTC3374A is ideal for single cell Li-Ion/Polymer battery applications. Up to four buck regulators may be paralleled together to create a higher power buck regulator with a single inductor.
