FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®3408 is a high efficiency monolithic synchro-
nous buck regulator optimized for WCDMA power ampli-
fier applications. The output voltage can be dynamically
programmed from 0.3V to 3.5V. At VOUT > 3.6V an internal
0.08Ω bypass P-channel MOSFET connects VOUT directly
to VIN, eliminating power loss through the inductor.

The input voltage range is 2.5V to 5V making the LTC3408
ideally suited for single Li-Ion battery-powered applica-
tions. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation,
extending battery life in portable systems.
Switching frequency is internally set at 1.5MHz, allowing
the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors.
The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and
eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode.

The output voltage can be dynamically programmed from
0.3V to 3.5V using theREF input. Because the gain toVOUT
from REF is internally set to 3, the corresponding input
range at REF is 0.1V to 1.167V. VOUT can be modulated
during operation by driving REF with an external DAC.

Figure 1. Typical Application
Main Control Loop
TheLTC3408usesaconstantfrequency,currentmodestep-
down architecture. The main (P-channel MOSFET), syn-
chronous (N-channel MOSFET) and bypass (P-channel
MOSFET) switches are internal. During normal operation,
the internal main switch is turned on each cycle when the
oscillator sets the RS latch, and turned off when the cur-
rent comparator, ICOMP, resets the RS latch. The peak in-
ductor current at which ICOMP resets the RS latch, is con-
trolled by the output of error amplifier EA. When the load
current increases, it causes a slight decrease in the feed-
back voltage, FB, relative to the external reference, which
inturn,causestheEAamplifier’soutputvoltagetoincrease
untiltheaverageinductorcurrentmatchesthenewloadcur-
rent. While the main switch is off, the synchronous switch
is turned on until the beginning of the next clock cycle.
WhenREFexceeds1.2V,a0.08ΩinternalbypassP-channel
MOSFET connects VIN to VOUT, dramatically reducing the
drop across the inductor and the main switch.
Short-Circuit Protection
A current sense comparator monitors the current across
the bypass P-channel MOSFET with a trip current of about
2.5A. When this current is exceeded during a VOUT short
to ground, the bypass P-channel MOSFET is immediately
turned off. The propagation delay of the current sensing
comparator, IBCMP, detecting an overcurrent condition to

100ns.OncethebypassP-channelMOSFETisoffforabout
10µs to 20µs, it is allowed to turn back on. The initial
current limit is then lowered to about 1.6A after the first
current limit trip. If the short to ground persists, the cur-

the inductor current is constantly cycled. In this mode, the

but less than VIN/3, the bypass P-channel MOSFET will be

that the REF voltage is greater than both 1.2V and VIN/3.
offandonthebypassP-channelMOSFETwithafrequency
of approximately 50kHz to 100kHz at 1.6A peak current.
This will continue until the short is removed. While the
bypass P-channel MOSFET is pulsing intermittently, the
inherent current limit of the step-down regulator limits its
peak current to about 1A.
An important detail to remember is that at low input
supply voltages, the RDS(ON) of the P-channel switch
increases (see Typical Performance Characteristics).
Therefore, the user should calculate the power dissipa-
tion when the LTC3408 is used at 100% duty cycle with
low input voltage (See Thermal Considerations in the
Applications Information section).
Dropout Operation
If the reference voltage would cause VOUT to exceed VIN,
the LTC3408 enters dropout operation. During dropout,
the main switch remains on continuously and operates at
100%dutycycle. IfthevoltageatREFislessthan1.2V, the
bypass P-channel MOSFET will stay off even in dropout
operation. The output voltage is then determined by the
inputvoltageminusthevoltagedropacrossthemainswitch
and the inductor. If the voltage at REF is greater than 1.2V,
Low Supply Operation
The LTC3408 will operate with input supply voltages as
low as 2.5V, but the maximum allowable output current is
reduced at this low voltage. Figure 2 shows the reduction
in the maximum output current as a function of input
voltage for various output voltages.

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 LTC3408 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.

currents. As Equation 1 shows, a greater difference be-
tween VIN and VOUT produces a larger ripple current.
Where these voltages are subject to change, the highest
VIN and lowest VOUT will determine the maximum ripple
current. A reasonable starting point for setting ripple

Inductor Selection
For most applications, the value of the inductor will fall in
the range of 4µH to 6µH. Its value is chosen based on the
desired ripple current. Large value inductors lower ripple

Inductor Core Selection
The selection of COUT is driven by the required effective
series resistance (ESR). Typically, once the ESR
requirement for COUT has been met, the RMS current
ratinggenerallyfarexceedstheIRIPPLE(P-P) requirement.
The output ripple VOUT is determined by:
Different core materials and shapes will change the size/
current and price/current relationship of an inductor.

cost more than powdered iron core inductors with similar
electrical characteristics. The choice of which style induc-
tor to use often depends more on the price versus size
requirements and any radiated field/EMI requirements
than on what the LTC3408 requires to operate. Table 1

well in LTC3408 applications.

higher is the voltage spike at the input. For best results,
ramp the REF pin from high to low as slow as the
application will allow. Avoid abrupt changes in voltage of
>0.2V/µs. If ramp control is unavailable, an RC filter with
a time constant of 10µs can be inserted between the REF
pin and the DAC as shown in Figure 3.

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
LTC3408’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:
However, care must be taken when ceramic capacitors are
usedattheinputandtheoutput.Whenaceramiccapacitor
is used at the input and the power is supplied by a wall
adapter through long wires, a load step at the output can
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.
Efficiency = 100% – (L1 + L2 + L3 + ...)
whereL1, L2, etc. aretheindividuallossesasapercentage
of input power.
Although all dissipative elements in the circuit produce
losses, two main sources usually account for most of the
losses in LTC3408 circuits: VIN quiescent current and I2R
losses. The VIN quiescent current loss dominates the effi-
ciencylossatlowloadcurrentswhereastheI2Rlossdomi-
nates the efficiency loss at medium to high load currents.
In a typical efficiency plot, the efficiency curve at low load
currents can be misleading since the actual power lost is
of little consequence as illustrated in Figure 4.
When choosing the input and output ceramic capacitors,
choose the X5R or X7R dielectric formulations. These
dielectrics have the best temperature and voltage charac-
teristics of all the ceramics for a given value and size.
Ceramic capacitors of Y5V material are not recommended
because normal operating voltages cause their bulk ca-
pacitance to become much less than the nominal value.

To prevent the LTC3408 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

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.
Figure 4. Power Lost vs Load Current
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,
thus, their effects will be more pronounced at higher
supply voltages. (The gate charge of the bypass FET is,
of course, negligible because it is infrequently cycled.)
2. I2R losses are calculated from the resistances of the
internal switches, RSW, and external inductor RL. In con-
tinuousmode, theaverageoutputcurrentflowingthrough
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:
The junction temperature, TJ, is given by:
TJ = TA + TR
where TA is the ambient temperature.
As an example, consider the LTC3408 in dropout at an
inputvoltageof2.7V,aloadcurrentof600mA(0.9V≤VREF
< 1.2V) and an ambient temperature of 70°C. With VREF
<
1.2V, the entire 600mA flows through the main P-channel
FET. From the typical performance graph of switch resis-
tance, the RDS(ON) of the P-channel switch at 70°C is
approximately 0.52Ω. Therefore, power dissipated by the
part is:
RSW = (RDS(ON)TOP)(DC) + (RDS(ON)BOT)(1 – DC)
PD = (ILOAD2) • RDS(ON) = 187.2mW
The RDS(ON) for both the top and bottom MOSFETs can be
obtained from the Typical Performance Charateristics
curves. Hence, to obtain I2R losses, simply add RSW to RL
and multiply the result by the square of the average output
current.
For the 8L DFN package, the θJA is 43°C/W. Thus, the
junction temperature of the regulator is:
TJ = 70°C + (0.1872)(43) = 78°C
which is below the maximum junction temperature of
125°C.
Other losses including CIN and COUT ESR dissipative
losses and inductor core losses generally account for less
than 2% total additional loss.
Modifying this example, suppose that VREF is raised to
1.2V or higher. This turns on the bypass P-channel FET as
wellasthemainP-channelFET.Assumethattheinductor’s
DC resistance is 0.1Ω, the RDS(ON) of the main P-channel
switch is 0.52Ω, and the RDS(ON) of the bypass P-channel
switchis0.08Ω.ThecurrentthroughtheP-channelswitch
and the inductor will be 69mA, causing power dissipation
of (0.069A)2 • 0.62Ω = 2.9mW. The bypass FET will
Thermal Considerations
In most applications the LTC3408 does not dissipate
much heat due to its high efficiency. But, in applications
where the LTC3408 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 maximum

dissipate (0.531A)2 • 0.08Ω = 22.6mW. Thus, TJ = 70°C +
(0.0143 + 0.0425)(43) = 71.1°C.
PC Board Layout Checklist
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
checklist should be used to ensure proper operation of the
LTC3408. These items are also illustrated graphically in
Figures 5 and 6. Check the following in your layout:
Reductions in power dissipation occur at higher supply
voltages, where the junction temperature is lower due to
reduced switch resistance (RDS(ON)).
1. The power traces, consisting of the GND trace, the SW
traceandtheVIN traceshouldbekeptshort,directandwide.
Checking Transient Response
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 dis-
chargeCOUT, whichgeneratesafeedbackerrorsignal. The
regulator loop then acts to return VOUT to its steady state
value.DuringthisrecoverytimeVOUT canbemonitoredfor
overshoot or ringing that would indicate a stability prob-
lem. For a detailed explanation of switching control loop
theory, see Application Note 76.
2. Does the (+) plate of CIN connect to VIN as closely as
possible? This capacitor provides the AC drive to the
internal power MOSFETs.
3. Keep the (–) plates of CIN and COUT as close as possible.
Design Example
As a design example, assume the LTC3408 is used in a
singlelithium-ionbattery-poweredcellularphoneapplica-
tion. 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 standby
mode, requiring only 2mA. Efficiency at both low and high
load currents is important. Output voltage is 2.5V. With
this information we can calculate L using Equation (1),
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.
