The LTC3315B features dual 2A monolithic synchronous step-down converters operating from a 2.25V to 5.5V input supply in one package for space-constrained applications with demanding performance requirements. Using constant frequency, peak current mode control at switching frequencies up to 10MHz with a minimum on-time as low as 25ns, both bucks achieve high efficiency and fast transient response in a very small application footprint.

The LTC3315B operates in forced continuous or pulse skip mode for low noise or in Burst Mode® operation for high efficiency at light loads. The common buck switching frequency is 6MHz and can be synchronized to an external oscillator via the MODE/SYNC pin.

The LTC3315B can regulate outputs as low as 500mV. Other features include precision enable thresholds, a PGOOD signal, output overvoltage protection, thermal shutdown, output short-circuit protection, and up to 100% duty cycle operation for low dropout. The LTC3315B is available in a compact 2mm × 2mm LQFN package.

DC2748A

3.3V VIN, Dual 2A, 6MHz Synchronous Step-Down Regulators at 1.8V and 2.0V Outputs, in a 0.71cm2 Solution

Product Details

Demonstration Circuit DC2748A features the LTC3315B dual 5V, 2A Synchronous Step-Down DC/DC regulators operating at 6MHz. One regulator provides a 1.8V output and the other provides 2.0V, both up to a 2A load. The LTC3315B supports adjustable output voltages from 0.5V to VIN, operating frequencies from 3MHz up to 10MHz. The LTC3315B is a compact, high efficiency, and high speed synchronous monolithic step-down switching regulator. Fast minimum on-time of 25ns enables high VIN to low VOUT conversion at high frequency.

The DC2748A operating mode may be selected as Burst Mode operation, Skip mode or Forced Continuous (FC) mode. Setting JP1 to the FC/SYNC position will allow the LTC3315B to sync to a clock frequency from 3MHz to 10MHz. The LTC3315B operates in Forced Continuous mode when syncing to an external clock.

The LTC3315B data sheet gives a complete description of the device, operation and application information. The data sheet must be read in conjunction with the demo manual. The LTC3315B is assembled in a 2mm × 2mm LQFN package with exposed pads for low thermal resistance. The PCB Considerations section in the data sheet.

The Efficiency vs Load graph on the demo manual shows the efficiency and the power loss of the circuit with a 3.3V input in Burst Mode operation.
