The LTC3312SA features dual monolithic synchronous 6A step-down converters in a 4mm × 3mm package for space saving applications with demanding performance requirements. Using a constant frequency, peak current mode architecture at switching frequencies up to 3MHz, both bucks achieve high efficiency and fast transient response with small external components. The LTC3312SA can also be configured as a single output, 2-phase 12A step-down converter.

The LTC3312SA operates in forced continuous or pulse-skipping mode for low noise, or in Burst Mode operation for high efficiency at light loads. The common switching frequency is set to a default 2MHz, programmed with an external resistor, or synchronized to an external oscillator via the MODE/SYNC pin. To reduce input ripple current, the dual converters switch 180 degrees out of phase.

With an input range of 2.25V to 5.5V the LTC3312SA regulates to outputs as low as 500mV. Other features include precision enable thresholds, PGOOD signals, output overvoltage protection, thermal shutdown, and output short circuit protection. Programmable soft-start and a temperature monitor output are also included. The device is available in a low profile 22-lead 4mm × 3mm × 0.95mm LQFN package with exposed pad for low thermal resistance.

LTC3312SA | 3.3V to 1V 12A, 2MHz Dual-Phase Low Ripple Step-Down DC/DC Regulator

Product Detail

Demo Circuit 3092A features the LTC3312SA, 5V, dual 6A/dual-phase 12A step-down DC/DC regulator IC. This demo circuit is configured as a 2-phase, 2MHz, 3.3V input, single 1V output, 12A buck regulator. The top switches are 180-degree out of phase to reduce the output ripple.

The LTC3312SA features dual monolithic synchronous 6A step-down power stages in a 3mm × 4mm package for space saving applications with demanding performance requirements. Both bucks achieve high efficiency and fast transient response with low external component count. The LTC3312SA can also be configured as a dual output, 6A per output, step-down converter. Please refer to DC3091A as a dual output application example. The LTC3312SA data sheet gives a complete description of its operation and application information. The data sheet must be read in conjunction with the demo manual when evaluating or modifying this demo circuit.

DC3092A supports three operation modes, including pulse skip, forced continuous, and Burst Mode® operation. The clock frequency and the operation mode are shared by both buck phases. User can select desired operation mode with JP1 jumper. Setting JP1 to FC/SYNC position also allows the LTC3312SA to sync to a clock frequency from 1MHz to 3MHz, operating in forced continuous mode.

An EMI filter is included in this demo circuit for noise sensitive applications. To power with EMI filter, please apply input voltage via VIN EMI terminal.
