The LTC3728L-1 is a dual high performance step-down switching regulator controller that drives all N-channel synchronous power MOSFET stages. A constant frequency current mode architecture allows phase-lockable frequency of up to 550kHz. Power loss and noise due to the ESR of the input capacitors are minimized by operating the two controller output stages out of phase. The LTC3728L-1 is identical to the LTC3728L except that the LTC3728L-1 lacks the over current latch-off feature.

OPTI-LOOP compensation allows the transient response to be optimized over a wide range of output capacitance and ESR values. The precision 0.8V reference and power good output indicator are compatible with future microprocessor generations, and a wide 4.5V to 28V (30V maximum/35V for LTC3728LI-1) input supply range encompasses all battery chemistries.

A RUN/SS pin for each controller provides soft-start. Current foldback limits MOSFET dissipation during shortcircuit conditions. The FCB mode pin can select among Burst Mode operation, constant frequency mode and continuous inductor current mode or regulate a secondary winding. The LTC3728L-1 includes a power good output pin that indicates when both outputs are within 7.5% of their designed set point.
