The LTC3100 combines a high efficiency 700mA synchronous step-up converter, a 250mA synchronous stepdown converter and a 100mA LDO regulator. The LTC3100 features a wide input voltage range of 0.65V to 5V. The step-down converter can be powered by the output of the step-up converter or from a separate power source between 1.8V and 5.5V. The LDO can also be used as a sequencing switch on the output of the boost.

A switching frequency of 1.5MHz minimizes solution footprint by allowing the use of tiny, low profile inductors and ceramic capacitors. The switching regulators use current mode control and are internally compensated, reducing external parts count. Each converter automatically transitions to Burst Mode operation to maintain high efficiency over the full load range. Burst Mode operation can be disabled for low noise applications. The integrated LDO provides a third low noise, low dropout supply.

Anti-ringing circuitry reduces EMI by damping the boost inductor in discontinuous mode. Additional features include shutdown current of under 1μA and overtemperature shutdown. The LTC3100 is housed in a 16-lead 3mm × 3mm 0.75mm QFN package.

Product Details

Demonstration circuit 1326A consists of three voltage regulators; a synchronous boost, a synchronous buck and a linear LDO. Jumpers are provided for selecting a total of nine output voltages (3 boost output voltages: 1.8V/3.3V/5V, 3 buck output voltages: 1.2V/1.5V/1.8V, and 3 LDO output voltages: 1.5V/2.85V/3V). The high efficiency DC/DC converters feature 700mA switches for the boost, 250mA for the buck and a 100mA rating for the LDO regulator. With a light load, the boost converter can startup with an input voltage as low as 700mV and once started, the input can go as low as 500mV while maintaining a regulated output. That maximum boost and buck input voltage is 5.5V. The buck converter requires 1.8V minimum input.
