OPERATIO
(Refer to Functional Diagram)
Burst Mode Operation
Main Control Loop
The LTC3406 is capable of Burst Mode operation in which
the internal power MOSFETs operate intermittently based
on load demand.
The LTC3406 uses a constant frequency, current mode
step-down architecture. Both the main (P-channel
MOSFET)andsynchronous(N-channelMOSFET)switches
are internal. During normal operation, the internal top
power MOSFET is turned on each cycle when the oscillator
sets the RS latch, and turned off when the current com-
parator, ICOMP, resets the RS latch. The peak inductor
current at which ICOMP resets the RS latch, is controlled by
the output of error amplifier EA. When the load current
increases, it causes a slight decrease in the feedback
voltage, FB, relative to the 0.6V reference, which in turn,
causes the EA amplifier’s output voltage to increase until
the average inductor current matches the new load cur-
rent. While the top MOSFET is off, the bottom MOSFET is
turnedonuntileithertheinductorcurrentstartstoreverse,
as indicated by the current reversal comparator IRCMP, or
the beginning of the next clock cycle.
In Burst Mode operation, the peak current of the inductor
is set to approximately 200mA regardless of the output
load. Each burst event can last from a few cycles at light
loads to almost continuously cycling with short sleep
intervalsatmoderateloads.Inbetweentheseburstevents,
thepowerMOSFETsandanyunneededcircuitryareturned
off, reducing the quiescent current to 20µA. In this sleep
state, the load current is being supplied solely from the
output capacitor. As the output voltage droops, the EA
amplifier’s output rises above the sleep threshold signal-
ingtheBURSTcomparatortotripandturnthetopMOSFET
on. This process repeats at a rate that is dependent on the
load demand.

Short-Circuit Protection
in the maximum output current as a function of input
voltage for various output voltages.
Whentheoutputisshortedtoground, thefrequencyofthe
oscillator is reduced to about 210kHz, 1/7 the nominal
frequency. This frequency foldback ensures that the in-
ductorcurrenthasmoretimetodecay, therebypreventing
runaway. The oscillator’s frequency will progressively
increase to 1.5MHz when VFB or VOUT rises above 0V.
Slope Compensation and Inductor Peak Current
Slope compensation provides stability in constant fre-
quency architectures by preventing subharmonic oscilla-
tions at high duty cycles. It is accomplished internally by
adding a compensating ramp to the inductor current
signal at duty cycles in excess of 40%. Normally, this
results in a reduction of maximum inductor peak current
for duty cycles >40%. However, the LTC3406 uses a
patent-pending scheme that counteracts this compensat-
ing ramp, which allows the maximum inductor peak
current to remain unaffected throughout all duty cycles.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
The basic LTC3406 application circuit is shown in Figure 1.
Externalcomponentselectionisdrivenbytheloadrequire-
ment and begins with the selection of L followed by CIN and
inductor to use often depends more on the price vs size
requirements and any radiated field/EMI requirements
than on what the LTC3406 requires to operate. Table 1
shows some typical surface mount inductors that work
well in LTC3406 applications.

.
Inductor Selection
Table 1. Representative Surface Mount Inductors
For most applications, the value of the inductor will fall in
the range of 1µH to 4.7µH. Its value is chosen based on the
desired ripple current. Large value inductors lower ripple
current and small value inductors result in higher ripple
currents. Higher VIN or VOUT also increases the ripple
currentasshowninequation1. Areasonablestartingpoint
for setting ripple current is ∆IL = 240mA (40% of 600mA).

The DC current rating of the inductor should be at least
equal to the maximum load current plus half the ripple
current to prevent core saturation. Thus, a 720mA rated
inductorshouldbeenoughformostapplications(600mA
+ 120mA). For better efficiency, choose a low DC-resis-
tance inductor.
CIN and COUT Selection
Incontinuousmode,thesourcecurrentofthetopMOSFET
is a square wave of duty cycle VOUT/VIN. To prevent large
voltage transients, a low ESR input capacitor sized for the
maximum RMS current must be used. The maximum
RMS capacitor current is given by:
The inductor value also has an effect on Burst Mode
operation. The transition to low current operation begins
when the inductor current peaks fall to approximately
200mA. Lower inductor values (higher ∆IL) will cause this
to occur at lower load currents, which can cause a dip in
efficiency in the upper range of low current operation. In
Burst Mode operation, lower inductance values will cause
the burst frequency to increase.

The selection of COUT is driven by the required effective
induce ringing at the input, VIN. At best, this ringing can
couple to the output and be mistaken as loop instability. At
worst, a sudden inrush of current through the long wires
can potentially cause a voltage spike at VIN, large enough
to damage the part.

Using Ceramic Input and Output Capacitors
Higher values, lower cost ceramic capacitors are now
becoming available in smaller case sizes. Their high ripple
current, high voltage rating and low ESR make them ideal
for switching regulator applications. Because the
LTC3406’s control loop does not depend on the output
capacitor’s ESR for stable operation, ceramic capacitors
can be used freely to achieve very low output ripple and
small circuit size.

Efficiency Considerations
The efficiency of a switching regulator is equal to the
output power divided by the input power times 100%. It is
oftenusefultoanalyzeindividuallossestodeterminewhat
is limiting the efficiency and which change would produce
the most improvement. Efficiency can be expressed as:

Although all dissipative elements in the circuit produce
losses, two main sources usually account for most of the
losses in LTC3406 circuits: VIN quiescent current and I2R
losses. The VIN quiescent current loss dominates the
efficiency loss at very low load currents whereas the I2R
loss dominates the efficiency loss at medium to high load
currents. In a typical efficiency plot, the efficiency curve at
very low load currents can be misleading since the actual
power lost is of no consequence as illustrated in Figure 4.
2. I2R losses are calculated from the resistances of the
internal switches, RSW, and external inductor RL. In
continuous mode, the average output current flowing
through inductor L is “chopped” between the main
switch and the synchronous switch. Thus, the series
resistance looking into the SW pin is a function of both
top and bottom MOSFET RDS(ON) and the duty cycle
(DC) as follows:
RSW = (RDS(ON)TOP)(DC) + (RDS(ON)BOT)(1 – DC)
The RDS(ON) for both the top and bottom MOSFETs can
beobtainedfromtheTypicalPerformanceCharateristics
curves. Thus, to obtain I2R losses, simply add RSW to
RL and multiply the result by the square of the average
output current.

In most applications the LTC3406 does not dissipate
much heat due to its high efficiency. But, in applications
where the LTC3406 is running at high ambient tempera-
ture with low supply voltage and high duty cycles, such
as in dropout, the heat dissipated may exceed the maxi-
mum junction temperature of the part. If the junction
temperature reaches approximately 150°C, both power
switches will be turned off and the SW node will become
high impedance.
LOAD CURRENT (mA)
3406 F04
Figure 4. Power Lost vs Load Current
1. The VIN quiescent current is due to two components:
the DC bias current as given in the electrical character-
istics and the internal main switch and synchronous
switch gate charge currents. The gate charge current
results from switching the gate capacitance of the
internal power MOSFET switches. Each time the gate is
switched from high to low to high again, a packet of
charge, dQ, moves from VIN to ground. The resulting
dQ/dtisthecurrentoutofVINthatistypicallylargerthan
To avoid the LTC3406 from exceeding the maximum
junction temperature, the user will need to do some
thermal analysis. The goal of the thermal analysis is to
determine whether the power dissipated exceeds the
maximum junction temperature of the part. The tempera-
ture rise is given by:
the DC bias current. In continuous mode, IGATECHG
=
f(QT + QB) where QT and QB are the gate charges of the
internal top and bottom switches. Both the DC bias and
gate charge losses are proportional to VIN and thus
their effects will be more pronounced at higher supply
voltages.
TR = (PD)(θJA)
where PD is the power dissipated by the regulator and θJA
is the thermal resistance from the junction of the die to the
ambient temperature.

The junction temperature, TJ, is given by:
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 charging to 3.3V would require a
250µs rise time, limiting the charging current to about
130mA.
TJ = TA + TR
where TA is the ambient temperature.
As an example, consider the LTC3406 in dropout at an
input voltage of 2.7V, a load current of 600mA and an
ambient temperature of 70°C. From the typical perfor-
mance graph of switch resistance, the RDS(ON) of the
P-channel switch at 70°C is approximately 0.52Ω. There-
fore, power dissipated by the part is:
PD = ILOAD2 • RDS(ON) = 187.2mW
PC Board Layout Checklist
For the SOT-23 package, the θJA is 250°C/W. Thus, the
junction temperature of the regulator is:
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
checklist should be used to ensure proper operation of the
LTC3406. These items are also illustrated graphically in
Figures 5 and 6. Check the following in your layout:
TJ = 70°C + (0.1872)(250) = 116.8°C
which is below the maximum junction temperature of
125°C.
1. The power traces, consisting of the GND trace, the SW
trace and the VIN trace should be kept short, direct and
wide.
Note that at higher supply voltages, the junction tempera-
ture is lower due to reduced switch resistance (RDS(ON)).
Checking Transient Response
2. Does the VFB pin connect directly to the feedback
resistors? The resistive divider R1/R2 must be con-
nected between the (+) plate of COUT and ground.
The regulator loop response can be checked by looking at
the load transient response. Switching regulators take
several cycles to respond to a step in load current. When
a load step occurs, VOUT immediately shifts by an amount
equal to (∆ILOAD • ESR), where ESR is the effective series
resistance of COUT. ∆ILOAD also begins to charge or
discharge COUT, which generates a feedback error signal.
The regulator loop then acts to return VOUT to its steady-
state value. During this recovery time VOUT can be moni-
toredforovershootorringingthatwouldindicateastability
problem. For a detailed explanation of switching control
loop theory, see Application Note 76.
3. Does the (+) plate of CIN connect to VIN as closely as
possible? This capacitor provides the AC current to the
internal power MOSFETs.
4. Keep the switching node, SW, away from the sensitive
VFB node.
5. Keepthe(–)platesofCIN andCOUT ascloseaspossible.

Design Example
Substituting VOUT = 2.5V, VIN = 4.2V, ∆IL = 240mA and
f = 1.5MHz in equation (3) gives:
As a design example, assume the LTC3406 is used in a
single lithium-ion battery-powered cellular phone
application. The VIN will be operating from a maximum of
4.2V down to about 2.7V. The load current requirement
is a maximum of 0.6A but most of the time it will be in
standbymode, requiringonly2mA. Efficiencyatbothlow
and high load currents is important. Output voltage is
2.5V. With this information we can calculate L using
equation (1),

A 2.2µH inductor works well for this application. For best
efficiency choose a 720mA or greater inductor with less
than 0.2Ω series resistance.
CIN will require an RMS current rating of at least 0.3A ≅
ILOAD(MAX)/2 at temperature and COUT will require an ESR
of less than 0.25Ω. In most cases, a ceramic capacitor will
satisfy this requirement.
