The LTC®1149 series is a family of synchronous step-
down switching regulator controllers featuring automatic
Burst ModeTM operation to maintain high efficiencies at
low output currents. These devices drive external comple-
mentary power MOSFETs at switching frequencies up
to 250kHz using a constant off-time current-mode archi-
tecture.

Adaptive Nonoverlap Gate Drives
Special onboard regulation and level-shift circuitry allow
operation at input voltages from dropout to 48V (60V
absolute max). The constant off-time architecture main-
tains constant ripple current in the inductor, easing the
design of wide input range converters. Current mode
operation provides excellent line and load transient
response. The operating current level is user-program-
mable via an external current sense resistor.

SENSE– (Pin 8): Connects to internal resistive divider
which sets the output voltage in LTC1149-3.3 and
LTC1149-5 versions. Pin 8 is also the (–) input for the
current comparator.
RGND (Pin 14): Low Dropout Regulator Ground. Con-
nects to power ground.
SHDN2 (Pin 15): Master Shutdown Pin. Taking Pin 15
high shuts down VCC and all control circuitry; requires a

CAP(Pin16):ChargeCompensationPin. Acapacitorfrom
Pin 16 to VCC provides the charge required by the P-drive
level-shift capacitor during supply transitions. The Pin 16
capacitor must be larger than the Pin 4 capacitor.

U
OPERATIO
(Refer to Functional Diagram)
The LTC1149 series uses a current mode, constant off-
time architecture to synchronously switch an external pair
of complementary power MOSFETs. Operating frequency
is set by an external capacitor at the timing capacitor,
Pin 6.
A low dropout 10V regulator provides the operating volt-
age VCC for the MOSFET drivers and control circuitry. The
driver outputs at Pins 4 and 13 are referenced to ground,
which fulfills the N-channel MOSFET gate drive require-
ment. The P-channel gate drive at Pin 1 must be refer-
encedtothemainsupplyinputVIN, whichisaccomplished
by level-shifting the Pin 4 signal via an internal 500k
resistor and external capacitor.
The output voltage is sensed either by an internal voltage
divider connected to SENSE–, Pin 8 (LTC1149-3.3 and
LTC1149-5) or an external divider returned to VFB Pin 10
(LTC1149). A voltage comparator V, and a gain block G,
compare the divided output voltage with a reference
voltage of 1.25V. To optimize efficiency, the LTC1149
series automatically switches between two modes of
operation, burst and continuous. The voltage comparator
is the primary control element for Burst Mode operation,
whilethegainblockcontrolstheoutputvoltageincontinu-
ous mode.
During the switch “ON” cycle in continuous mode, current
comparator C monitors the voltage between Pins 8 and 9
connected across an external shunt in series with the
inductor. When the voltage across the shunt reaches its
threshold value, the PGATE output is switched to VIN,
turning off the P-channel MOSFET. The timing capacitor
connected to Pin 6 is now allowed to discharge at a rate
determined by the off-time controller. The discharge
5
LTC1149

U
OPERATIO (Refer to Functional Diagram)
current is made proportional to the output voltage (mea-
sured by Pin 8) to model the inductor current, which
decays at a rate which is also proportional to the output
voltage. While the timing capacitor is discharging, the
NGATE output is high, turning on the N-channel MOSFET.
The circuit now enters sleep mode with both power
MOSFETs turned off. In sleep mode, much of the circuitry
is turned off, dropping the supply current from several
milliamperes (with the MOSFETs switching) to 600µA.
When the output capacitor has discharged by the amount
of hysteresis in comparator V, the P-channel MOSFET is
again turned on and this process repeats. To avoid the
operation of the current loop interfering with Burst Mode
operation, a built-in offset is incorporated in the gain
stage. This prevents the current comparator threshold
from increasing until the output voltage has dropped
below a minimum threshold.
When the voltage on the timing capacitor has discharged
past VTH1, comparator T trips, setting the flip-flop. This
causes the NGATE output to go low (turning off the
N-channel MOSFET) and the PGATE output to also go low
(turning the P-channel MOSFET back on). The cycle then
repeats.
As the load current increases, the output voltage
decreases slightly. This causes the output of the gain
stage to increase the current comparator threshold, thus
tracking the load current.
To prevent both the external MOSFETs from ever being
turned on at the same time, feedback is incorporated to
sense the state of the driver output pins. Before the N-gate
output can go high, the P-drive output must also be high.
Likewise, the P-drive output is prevented from going low
when the N-gate output is high.
The sequence of events for Burst Mode operation is very
similar to continuous operation with the cycle interrupted
by the voltage comparator. When the output voltage is at
orabovethedesiredregulatedvalue,theP-channelMOSFET
is held off by comparator V and the timing capacitor
continues to discharge below VTH1. When the timing
capacitor discharges past VTH2, voltage comparator S
trips, causing the internal SLEEP line to go low and the
N-channel MOSFET to turn off.
Using constant off-time architecture, the operating fre-
quency is a function of the input voltage. To minimize the
frequency variation as dropout is approached, the off-
time controller increases the discharge current as VIN
drops below VOUT + 1.5V. In dropout the P-channel
MOSFET is turned on continuously.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Typical Application Circuit
Since efficiency generally increases with ripple current,
the maximum allowable ripple current is assumed, i.e.,
IRIPPLE(P-P) = 25mV/RSENSE (see CT and L Selection for
Operating Frequency). Solving for RSENSE and allowing a
margin for variations in the LTC1149 series and external
component values yields:
The basic LTC1149 series application circuit is shown in
Figure 1. External component selection is driven by the

RSENSE Selection for Output Current
The load current below which Burst Mode operation
commences, IBURST, and the peak short-circuit current,
ISC(PK), both track IMAX. Once RSENSE has been chosen,
IBURST and ISC(PK) can be predicted from the following
equations:
RSENSE is chosen based on the required output current.
The LTC1149 series current comparator has a threshold
range which extends from a minimum of 25mV/RSENSE to
a maximum of 150mV/RSENSE. The current comparator
threshold sets the peak of the inductor ripple current,
yielding a maximum output current IMAX equal to the peak
value less half the peak-to-peak ripple current. For proper
Burst Mode operation, IRIPPLE(P-P) must be less than or
equal to the minimum current comparator threshold.

Note that as VIN decreases, the frequency decreases.

L and CT Selection for Operating Frequency
The LTC1149 series uses a constant off-time architecture
with tOFF determined by an external timing capacitor CT.
Each time the P-channel MOSFET switch turns on, the
voltage on CT is reset to approximately 3.3V. During the
off-time, CT is discharged by a current which is propor-
tional to VOUT. The voltage on CT is analogous to the
current in inductor L, which likewise decays at a rate
proportional to VOUT. Thus the inductor value must track
the timing capacitor value.
As the inductor value is increased from the minimum
value, the ESR requirements for the output capacitor are
eased at the expense of efficiency. If too small an inductor
is used, the inductor current will decrease past zero and
changepolarity.AconsequenceofthisisthattheLTC1149

Once the minimum value for L is known, the type of
inductor must be selected. High efficiency converters
generally cannot afford the core loss found in low cost
powdered iron cores, forcing the use of more expensive
ferrite, molypermalloy, or Kool Mµ® cores. Actual core
loss is independent of core size for a fixed inductor value,
but it is very dependent on inductance selected. As induc-
tance increases, core losses go down. Unfortunately,
increased inductance requires more turns of wire and
therefore copper losses increase.

where ∂ is the temperature dependency of RDS(ON) and K
is a constant related to the gate drive current. Note the two
distinct terms in the equation. The first gives the I2R
losses, which are highest at low input voltages, while the
second gives the transition losses, which are highest at
high input voltages. For VIN < 24V, the high current
efficiency generally improves with larger MOSFETs
(although gate charge losses begin eating into the gains.
See Efficiency Considerations). For VIN > 24V, the transi-
tion losses rapidly increase to the point that the use of a
higher RDS(ON) device with lower CRSS actually provides
higher efficiency. This is illustrated in the Design Example
section.

P-Channel MOSFET Selection
Two external power MOSFETs must be selected for use
with the LTC1149 series: a P-channel MOSFET for the
main switch, and an N-channel MOSFET for the synchro-

The minimum input voltage determines whether standard

For VIN > 8V, standard threshold MOSFETs (VGS(TH) < 4V)
may be used. If VIN is expected to drop below 8V, logic-
level threshold MOSFETs (VGS(TH) < 2.5V) are strongly
recommended. When logic-level MOSFETs are used, the
absolute maximum VGS rating for the MOSFETs must be
greater than the LTC1149 series internal regulator
voltage VCC.
N-Channel MOSFET and D1 Selection
The same input voltage constraints apply to the N-channel
MOSFET as to the P-channel with regard to when logic-
level devices are required. However, the dissipation calcu-

The selection of COUT is driven by the required effective
series resistance (ESR). The ESR of COUT must be less
than twice the value of RSENSE for proper operation of the
LTC1149 series:
where ∂ is the temperature dependency of RDS(ON). Note
that there is no transition loss term in the N-channel
dissipation equation because the drain-to-source voltage
is always low when the N-channel MOSFET is turning on
or off. The remaining I2R losses are the greatest at high
input voltage or during a short circuit, when the N-channel
duty cycle is nearly 100%. Fortunately, low RDS(ON)
N-channel MOSFETs are readily available which reduce
losses to the point that heat sinking is not required, even
during continuous short-circuit operation.
C
OUT Required ESR < 2RSENSE
Optimum efficiency is obtained by making the ESR equal
to RSENSE. As the ESR is increased up to 2RSENSE, the
efficiency degrades by less than 1%. If the ESR is greater
than 2RSENSE, the voltage ripple on the output capacitor
willprematurelytriggerBurstModeoperation, resultingin
disruption of continuous mode and an efficiency hit which
can be several percent.

the AVX TPS series of surface mount tantalums, available
in case heights ranging from 2mm to 4mm. For example,

the voltage comparator. This causes the Burst Mode
operation to be activated when the LTC1149 series would
normally be in continuous operation. The effect is most
pronounced with low values of RSENSE and can be
improved by operating at higher frequencies with lower
values of L. The output remains in regulation at all times.
A second, more severe transient is caused by switching in
loads with large (>1µF) supply bypass capacitors. The
dischargedbypasscapacitorsareeffectivelyputinparallel
with COUT, causing a rapid drop in VOUT. No regulator can
deliver enough current to prevent this problem if the load
switch resistance is low and it is driven quickly. The only
solution is to limit the rise time of the switch drive so that
the load rise time is limited to approximately (25)(CLOAD).
Thus a 10µF capacitor would require a 250µs rise time,
limiting the charging current to about 200mA.
Checking Transient Response
Switching regulators take several cycles to respond to a
step in DC (resistive) load current. When a load step
occurs, VOUT shifts by an amount equal to (∆ILOAD)(ESR),
where ESR is the effective series resistance of COUT
.

mode, IGATECHG = f (QN + QP). The typical gate charge
for a 0.1Ω N-channel power MOSFET is 25nC, and for
a P-channel about twice that value. This results in
IGATECHG = 7.5mA in 100kHz continuous operation, for
a 5% to 10% typical mid-current loss with VIN = 24V.
Note that the gate charge loss increases directly with
both input voltage and operating frequency. This is the
principal reason why the highest efficiency circuits
operate at moderate frequencies. Furthermore, it
argues against using larger MOSFETs than necessary
to control I2R losses, since overkill can cost efficiency
as well as money!
Efficiency Considerations
The percent efficiency of a switching regulator is equal to
the output power divided by the input power times 100%.
It is often useful to analyze individual losses to determine
what is limiting the efficiency and which change would
produce the most improvement. Percent efficiency can be
expressed as:
3. I2R losses are easily predicted from the DC resistances
of the MOSFET, inductor and current shunt. In continu-
ous mode all of the output current flows through L and
RSENSE, but is “chopped” between the P-channel and
N-channel MOSFETs. If the two MOSFETs have
approximately the same RDS(ON), then the resistance of
one MOSFET can simply be summed with the resis-
tances of L and RSENSE to obtain I2R losses. For
example, if each RDS(ON) = 0.1Ω, RL = 0.15Ω and
RSENSE = 0.05Ω, then the total resistance is 0.3Ω. This
results in losses ranging from 3% to 12% as the output
current increases from 0.5A to 2A. I2R losses cause the
efficiency to roll-off at high output currents.
%Efficiency = 100 – (L1 + L2 + L3 + ...)
where L1, L2, etc., are the individual losses as a percent-
age of input power. (For high efficiency circuits only small
errors are incurred by expressing losses as a percentage
of output power.)
Although all dissipative elements in the circuit produce
losses, four main sources usually account for most of the
losses in LTC1149 series circuits: 1) LTC1149 DC supply
current, 2)MOSFETgatechargecurrent, 3)I2Rlossesand
4) P-channel transition losses.
1. The DC supply current is the current which flows into
VIN Pin 2 less the gate charge current. For VIN = 12V the
LTC1149 DC supply current is 0.6mA for no load, and
increases proportionally with load up to 2mA after the
LTC1149 series has entered continuous mode.
Because the DC supply current is drawn from VIN, the
resulting loss increases with input voltage. For
VIN =24V, theDCbiaslossesaregenerallylessthan3%
for load currents over 300mA. However, at very low
loadcurrentstheDCbiascurrentaccountsfornearlyall
of the loss.
4. Transition losses apply only to the P-channel MOSFET,
and only when operating at high input voltages (typi-
cally 24V or greater). Transition losses can be esti-
mated from:
Transition Loss ≈ 5(VIN)2(IMAX)(CRSS)(f)
For example, if VIN = 48V, IMAX = 2A, CRSS = 300pF (a very
largeMOSFET)andf=100kHz, thetransitionlossis0.7W.
A loss of this magnitude would not only kill efficiency but
would probably require additional heat sinking for the
MOSFET! See Design Example for further guidelines on
how to select the P-channel MOSFET.
2. MOSFETgatechargecurrentresultsfromswitchingthe
gate capacitance of the power MOSFETs. Each time a
MOSFET gate is switched from low to high to low again,
a packet of charge dQ moves from VIN to ground. The
resulting dQ/dt is a current out of VIN which is typically
much larger than the DC supply current. In continuous
Other losses including CIN and COUT ESR dissipative
losses, Schottkyconductionlossesduringdead-time, and
inductor core losses, generally account for less than 2%
total additional loss.

2. Does the LTC1149 SENSE– Pin 8 connect to a point
close to RSENSE and the (+) plate of COUT? In adjustable
applications, the resistive divider R1, R2 must be
connected between the (+) plate of COUT and signal
ground.
3. AretheSENSE– andSENSE+ leadsroutedtogetherwith
minimum PC trace spacing? The differential decou-
pling capacitor between Pins 8 and 9 should be as close

Output Crowbar
An added feature to using an N-channel MOSFET as the
synchronous switch is the ability to crowbar the output
with the same MOSFET. Pulling the timing capacitor Pin 6
above 1.5V when the output voltage is greater than the
desiredregulatedvalue,willturnontheN-channelMOSFET.
A fault condition which causes the output voltage to go
above a maximum value can be detected by external

Figure 8. LTC1149 Series Layout Diagram (see Layout Checklist)
correctly in both continuous and Burst Mode operation.
The waveform to monitor is the voltage on the timing
capacitor Pin 6.
in series with each sense lead to help decouple Pins 8
and 9. However, when these resistors are used, the
capacitor should be no larger than 1000pF.
In continuous mode (ILOAD > IBURST) the voltage on Pin 6
should be a sawtooth with a 0.9VP-P swing. This voltage
should never dip below 2V as shown in Figure 9a.
4. Does the (+) plate of CIN connect to the source of the
P-channel MOSFET as closely as possible? An addi-
tional 0.1µF ceramic capacitor between VIN and power
ground may be required in some applications.
When load currents are low (ILOAD < IBURST) Burst Mode
operation should occur with the CT pin waveform periodi-
cally falling to ground as shown in Figure 9b.
5. Is the VCC decoupling capacitor connected closely
between Pin 5 of the LTC1149 and power ground? This
capacitor carries the MOSFET driver peak currents.
If Pin 6 is observed falling to ground at high output
currents,itindicatespoordecouplingorimproperground-
ing. Refer to the Board Layout Checklist.
6. Is the SHDN1 Pin 10 (fixed output versions only)
actively pulled to ground during normal operation? The
SHDN1 pin is high impedance and must not be allowed
to float. In adjustable versions, Pin 10 is the feedback
pinandisverysensitivetopickupfromtheswitchnode.
Care must be taken to isolate VFB from possible capaci-
tive coupling of the inductor switch signal.
