DESCRIPTION
2.6礎 Quiescent Current,
15V, 300mA Synchronous
Step-Down DC/DC
Converter and 10mA LDO
The LTC
?/DIV>
3104 is a high efficiency, monolithic synchronous
step-down converter using a current mode architecture
capable of supplying 300mA of output current. The LTC3104
includes an integrated, adjustable 10mA LDO to power
noise sensitive functions.
The LTC3104 offers two operational modes: automatic
Burst Mode operation and forced continuous mode allow-
ing the user to optimize output voltage ripple, noise and
light load efficiency. With Burst Mode operation enabled,
the typical DC input supply current at no load drops to
2.6礎, maximizing the efficiency for light loads. Selec-
tion of forced continuous mode provides very low noise
constant frequency, 1.2MHz operation.
Additionally, the LTC3104 includes an accurate RUN com-
parator, thermal overload protection, a power good output
and an integrated soft-start feature to guarantee that the
power system start-up is well controlled.
