LTC3548  
Dual Synchronous,  
400mA/800mA, 2.25MHz  
Step-Down DC/DC Regulator  
FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
TheLTC®3548isadual, constant-frequency, synchronous  
step down DC/DC converter. Intended for low power ap-  
plications, it operates from 2.5V to 5.5V input voltage  
range and has a constant 2.25MHz switching frequency,  
allowing the use of tiny, low cost capacitors and inductors  
with a profile ≤1mm. Each output voltage is adjustable  
from 0.6V to 5V. Internal synchronous 0.35Ω, 0.7A/1.2A  
power switches provide high efficiency without the need  
for external Schottky diodes.

A user selectable mode input is provided to allow the user  
to trade-off noise ripple for low power efficiency. Burst  
Mode operation provides high efficiency at light loads,  
while pulse-skipping mode provides low noise ripple at  
light loads.

To further maximize battery runtime, the P-channel  
MOSFETs are turned on continuously in dropout (100%  
duty cycle), and both channels draw a total quiescent cur-  
rent of only 40μA. In shutdown, the device draws <1μA.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings  
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute  
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device  
reliability and lifetime.  
Note 3: The LTC3548 is tested in a proprietary test mode that connects V  
to the output of the error amplifier.  
Note 4: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the internal gate charge  
being delivered at the switching frequency.

OPERATION  
The LTC3548 uses a constant-frequency, current mode  
architecture. The operating frequency is set at 2.25MHz  
and can be synchronized to an external oscillator. Both  
channels share the same clock and run in-phase. To suit a  
variety of applications, the selectable Mode pin allows the  
user to choose between low noise and high efficiency.  
Main Control Loop  
Duringnormaloperation,thetoppowerswitch(P-channel  
MOSFET) is turned on at the beginning of a clock cycle  
when the V voltage is below the the reference voltage.  
FB  
The current into the inductor and the load increases until  
the current limit is reached. The switch turns off and  
energy stored in the inductor flows through the bottom  
switch (N-channel MOSFET) into the load until the next  
clock cycle.  
The output voltage is set by an external divider returned  
to the V pins. An error amplifier compares the divided  
FB  
outputvoltagewithareferencevoltageof0.6Vandadjusts  
the peak inductor current accordingly. An undervoltage  
comparator will pull the POR output low if the output  
voltage is not above –8.5% of the reference voltage. The  
POR output will go high after 262,144 clock cycles (about  
117ms) of achieving regulation.  
The peak inductor current is controlled by the internally  
compensated I voltage, which is the output of the  
TH  
error amplifier.This amplifier compares the V pin to  
FB  
the 0.6V reference. When the load current increases,  
the V voltage decreases slightly below the reference.  
FB  
3548fc

LTC3548  
OPERATION  
This decrease causes the error amplifier to increase the  
TH  
new load current.  
For lower ripple noise at low currents, the pulse-skipping  
modecanbeused. Inthismode, theLTC3548continuesto  
switch at a constant frequency down to very low currents,  
whereitwillbeginskippingpulses. Theefficiencyinpulse-  
skipping mode can be improved slightly by connecting  
the SW node to the MODE/SYNC input which reduces the  
clock frequency by approximately 30%.

The main control loop is shut down by pulling the RUN

Dropout Operation  
When the input supply voltage decreases toward the  
output voltage, the duty cycle increases to 100% which  
is the dropout condition. In dropout, the PMOS switch is  
turnedoncontinuouslywiththeoutputvoltagebeingequal  
to the input voltage minus the voltage drops across the  
internal P-channel MOSFET and the inductor.  
To optimize efficiency, the Burst Mode operation can be  
selected. When the load is relatively light, the LTC3548  
automaticallyswitchesintoBurstModeoperation,inwhich  
the PMOS switch operates intermittently based on load  
demand with a fixed peak inductor current. By running  
cycles periodically, the switching losses which are domi-  
nated by the gate charge losses of the power MOSFETs  
are minimized. The main control loop is interrupted when  
the output voltage reaches the desired regulated value. A  
An important design consideration is that the R  
DS(ON)  
of the P-channel switch increases with decreasing input  
supply voltage (see Typical Performance Characteristics).  
Therefore, the user should calculate the power dissipation  
when the LTC3548 is used at 100% duty cycle with low  
input voltage (see Thermal Considerations in the Applica-  
tions Information section).

To prevent unstable operation, the LTC3548 incorporates  
an undervoltage lockout circuit which shuts down the part  
when the input voltage drops below about 1.65V.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
The inductor value will also have an effect on Burst Mode  
operation. The transition from low current operation  
begins when the peak inductor current falls below a level  
set by the burst clamp. Lower inductor values result in  
higher ripple current which causes this to occur at lower  
load currents. This causes 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.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
tantalum capacitors are all available in surface mount  
packages.TheOS-CONsemiconductordielectriccapacitor  
available from Sanyo has the lowest ESR (size) product  
of any aluminum electrolytic at a somewhat higher price.  
Special polymer capacitors, such as Sanyo POSCAP,  
Panasonic Special Polymer (SP), and Kemet A700, of-  
fer very low ESR, but have a lower capacitance density  
than other types. Tantalum capacitors have the highest  
capacitance density, but they have a larger ESR and it  
is critical that the capacitors are surge tested for use in  
switching power supplies. An excellent choice is the AVX  
TPS series of surface mount tantalums, available in case  
heightsrangingfrom2mmto4mm.Aluminumelectrolytic  
capacitors have a significantly larger ESR, and are often  
usedinextremelycost-sensitiveapplicationsprovidedthat  
consideration is given to ripple current ratings and long  
term reliability. Ceramic capacitors have the lowest ESR  
and cost, but also have the lowest capacitance density,  
a high voltage and temperature coefficient, and exhibit  
audible piezoelectric effects. In addition, the high Q of  
ceramic capacitors along with trace inductance can lead  
to significant ringing.  
ESLbeforeESRbecomeseffective. Also, ceramiccapsare  
prone to temperature effects which requires the designer  
to check loop stability over the operating temperature  
range. To minimize their large temperature and voltage  
coefficients, only X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors should  
beused.Agoodselectionofceramiccapacitorsisavailable  
from Taiyo Yuden, AVX, Kemet, TDK and Murata.  
Great care must be taken when using only ceramic input  
and output capacitors. When a ceramic capacitor is used  
at the input and the power is being supplied through long  
wires, suchasfromawalladapter, aloadstepattheoutput  
can induce ringing at the V pin. At best, this ringing can  
IN  
couple to the output and be mistaken as loop instability.  
At worst, the ringing at the input can be large enough to  
damage the part.  
Since the ESR of a ceramic capacitor is so low, the input  
and output capacitor must instead fulfill a charge storage  
requirement.Duringaloadstep,theoutputcapacitormust

is to limit the turn-on speed of the load switch driver. A

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
