LTC3405A 1.5MHz, 300mA Synchronous Step-Down Regulator in ThinSOT FEATURES DESCRIPTIO High Efficiency: Up to 96% The LTC 3405A is a high efficiency monolithic synchro- Very Low Quiescent Current: Only 20A nous buck regulator using a constant frequency, current During Operation mode architecture. Supply current during operation is 300mA Output Current at V = 3V only 20A and drops to <1A in shutdown. The 2.5V to IN 2.5V to 5.5V Input Voltage Range 5.5V input voltage range makes the LTC3405A ideally 1.5MHz Constant Frequency Operation suited for single Li-Ion battery-powered applications. 100% No Schottky Diode Required duty cycle provides low dropout operation, extending Low Dropout Operation: 100% Duty Cycle battery life in portable systems. Stable with Ceramic Capacitors Switching frequency is internally set at 1.5MHz, allowing 0.8V Reference Allows Low Output Voltages the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors. Shutdown Mode Draws < 1A Supply Current The LTC3405A is specifically designed to work well with 2% Output Voltage Accuracy ceramic output capacitors, achieving very low output Current Mode Operation for Excellent Line and voltage ripple and a small PCB footprint. Load Transient Response Overtemperature Protected The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and TM Low Profile (1mm) ThinSOT Package eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. Low U output voltages are easily supported with the 0.8V feed- APPLICATIO S back reference voltage. The LTC3405A is available in a low profile (1mm) ThinSOT package.
