FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
TheLT®3685isanadjustablefrequency(200kHzto2.4MHz)
monolithic step-down switching regulator that accepts
input voltages up to 38V operating and 60V maximum. An
internal overvoltage protection circuit turns off the power

then allows the part to safely withstand 60V transients. A
high efficiency 0.25 switch is included on the die along
with a boost Schottky diode and the necessary oscillator,
control, and logic circuitry. Current mode topology is
used for fast transient response and good loop stability.
The LT3685’s high operating frequency allows the use of
small, low cost inductors and ceramic capacitors result-
ing in low output ripple while keeping total solution size
to a minimum. The low current shutdown mode reduces
input supply current to less than 1μA while a resistor and
capacitor on the RUN/SS pin provide a controlled output
voltage ramp (soft-start). A power good flag signals when

PIN FUNCTIONS
BD (Pin 1): This pin connects to the anode of the boost
Schottky diode. BD also supplies current to the internal
regulator.
SYNC (Pin 6): This is the external clock synchronization
input. GroundthispinwhenSYNCfunctionisnotused. Tie
to a clock source for synchronization. Clock edges should
have rise and fall times faster than 1μs. See synchronizing
section in Applications Information.
BOOST (Pin 2): This pin is used to provide a drive
voltage,higherthantheinputvoltage,totheinternalbipolar
NPN power switch.
PG (Pin 7): The PG pin is the open collector output of an
internal comparator. PG remains low until the FB pin is
within 11% of the final regulation voltage. PG output is
SW (Pin 3): The SW pin is the output of the internal power
switch. Connect this pin to the inductor, catch diode and
boost capacitor.

V (Pin 9): The V pin is the output of the internal error

amplifier. The voltage on this pin controls the peak switch
current. Tie an RC network from this pin to ground to
compensate the control loop.
RUN/SS (Pin 5): The RUN/SS pin is used to put the
LT3685 in shutdown mode. Tie to ground to shut down
the LT3685. Tie to 2.5V or more for normal operation. If
the shutdown feature is not used, tie this pin to the V

OPERATION
The LT3685 is a constant frequency, current mode step-
down regulator. An oscillator, with frequency set by RT,
enables an RS flip-flop, turning on the internal power
switch. An amplifier and comparator monitor the current
The switch driver operates from either the input or from
the BOOST pin. An external capacitor and diode are used
to generate a voltage at the BOOST pin that is higher than
the input supply. This allows the driver to fully saturate the
internal bipolar NPN power switch for efficient operation.

Input Voltage Range
The maximum input voltage for LT3685 applications
depends on switching frequency, the Absolute Maximum
Ratings of the V and BOOST pins, and the operating
IN
mode.

The LT3685 can operate from input voltages up to 38V,
and safely withstand input voltages up 60V. Note that

Step-down regulators draw current from the input sup-
ply in pulses with very fast rise and fall times. The input
capacitor is required to reduce the resulting voltage
ripple at the LT3685 and to force this very high frequency
switching current into a tight local loop, minimizing EMI.
A 4.7μF capacitor is capable of this task, but only if it is
placed close to the LT3685 and the catch diode (see the
PCB Layout section). A second precaution regarding the
ceramic input capacitor concerns the maximum input
voltage rating of the LT3685. A ceramic input capacitor
combined with trace or cable inductance forms a high
quality (under damped) tank circuit. If the LT3685 circuit
is plugged into a live supply, the input voltage can ring to
twice its nominal value, possibly exceeding the LT3685’s
voltage rating. This situation is easily avoided (see the Hot

Of course, such a simple design guide will not always re-
sult in the optimum inductor for your application. A larger
value inductor provides a slightly higher maximum load
current and will reduce the output voltage ripple. If your
load is lower than 2A, then you can decrease the value of
the inductor and operate with higher ripple current. This
allows you to use a physically smaller inductor, or one
with a lower DCR resulting in higher efficiency. There are
several graphs in the Typical Performance Characteristics
section of this data sheet that show the maximum load
current as a function of input voltage and inductor value
for several popular output voltages. Low inductance may
result in discontinuous mode operation, which is okay
but further reduces maximum load current. For details of
maximum output current and discontinuous mode opera-
tion, see Linear Technology Application Note 44. Finally,
For space sensitive applications, a 2.2μF ceramic capaci-
tor can be used for local bypassing of the LT3685 input.
However, the lower input capacitance will result in in-
creased input current ripple and input voltage ripple, and
may couple noise into other circuitry. Also, the increased
voltage ripple will raise the minimum operating voltage
of the LT3685 to ~3.7V.

Loop compensation determines the stability and transient
performance. Designing the compensation network is a
bit complicated and the best values depend on the ap-
plication and in particular the type of output capacitor. A
practical approach is to start with one of the circuits in
this data sheet that is similar to your application and tune
the compensation network to optimize the performance.
Stability should then be checked across all operating
conditions, including load current, input voltage and
temperature. The LT1375 data sheet contains a more
thorough discussion of loop compensation and describes
how to test the stability using a transient load. Figure 2

Capacitor C3 and the internal boost Schottky diode (see
the Block Diagram) are used to generate a boost volt-
age that is higher than the input voltage. In most cases
a 0.22μF capacitor will work well. Figure 2 shows three
ways to arrange the boost circuit. The BOOST pin must be
more than 2.3V above the SW pin for best efficiency. For
outputs of 3V and above, the standard circuit (Figure 4a)
is best. For outputs between 2.8V and 3V, use a 1μF boost

The minimum operating voltage of an LT3685 application
is limited by the minimum input voltage (3.6V) and by the
maximum duty cycle as outlined in a previous section. For
proper startup, the minimum input voltage is also limited
by the boost circuit. If the input voltage is ramped slowly,
or the LT3685 is turned on with its RUN/SS pin when the
output is already in regulation, then the boost capacitor
may not be fully charged. Because the boost capacitor is
charged with the energy stored in the inductor, the circuit
will rely on some minimum load current to get the boost
circuit running properly. This minimum load will depend
on input and output voltages, and on the arrangement of
the boost circuit. The minimum load generally goes to
zero once the circuit has started. Figure 5 shows a plot

that result when an LT3685 circuit is connected to a 24V
supply through six feet of 24-gauge twisted pair. The
first plot is the response with a 4.7μF ceramic capacitor
at the input. The input voltage rings as high as 50V and
the input current peaks at 26A. A good solution is shown
in Figure 9b. A 0.7 resistor is added in series with the
input to eliminate the voltage overshoot (it also reduces
the peak input current). A 0.1μF capacitor improves high
frequency filtering. For high input voltages its impact on
efficiency is minor, reducing efficiency by 1.5 percent for
a 5V output at full load operating from 24V.
Power dissipation within the LT3685 can be estimated by
calculatingthetotalpowerlossfromanefficiencymeasure-
ment and subtracting the catch diode loss and inductor
loss. The die temperature is calculated by multiplying the
LT3685 power dissipation by the thermal resistance from
junction to ambient.

scriptions and design information for buck regulators and
otherswitchingregulators.TheLT1376datasheethasamore

stability testing. Design Note 100 shows how to generate a
bipolar output supply using a buck regulator.
High Temperature Considerations
The PCB must provide heat sinking to keep the LT3685
cool. The Exposed Pad on the bottom of the package must
be soldered to a ground plane. This ground should be tied
to large copper layers below with thermal vias; these lay-
ers will spread the heat dissipated by the LT3685. Place
