The 2.85V to 5.5V input voltage range makes the LTC3562  
ideally suited for single Li-Ion battery-powered applica-  
tions. At low output load conditions, the regulators can  
be switched into LDO, Burst Mode operation, or forced  
Burst Mode operation, extending battery life in portable  
systems. The quiescent current drops to under 100μA  
with all regulators in LDO mode, and under 0.1μA when  
all regulators are shut down.  
APPLICATIONS

Miscellaneous Handheld Applications with Multiple  
Supply Rails  
n
Personal Information Appliances  
Switching frequency is internally set to 2.25MHz, allowing  
the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors.  
All regulators are internally compensated. The LTC3562 is  
available in a low profile 3mm × 3mm QFN package.

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 2: The LTC3562E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications  
from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating  
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation  
with statistical process control.  
Note 3: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended  
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions.  
Overtemperature protection is active when junction temperature exceeds  
the maximum operating junction temperature. Continuous operation above  
the specified maximum operating junction temperature may result in  
device degradation or failure.  
Note 4: The serial port is tested at rated operating frequency. Timing  
parameters are tested and/or guaranteed by design.

Introduction

Through I C control, V  
can be programmed from  
FBxA  
800mV (full scale) down to 425mV in 25mV increments.  
When the RUN pins (RUN600A and RUN400A) are used  
to activate these regulators, the default feedback servo  
voltage is set to 800mV.  
The LTC3562 is a highly integrated power management

IC that contains four I C controllable, monolithic, high ef-  
ficiency step-down regulators. Two regulators provide up  
to 600mA of output current and the other two regulators  
produce up to 400mA. All four regulators are 2.25MHz,

enable signals coming from the I C port (refer to the Block  
Diagram) such that regulators R600A and R400A can be

enabled if the I C port is unavailable. The RUN600A pin is  
active low and the RUN400A pin is active high.  
When the RUN pins are activated, the Type-A regulators  
are enabled in a default setting. The default mode for the  
regulators is pulse skip mode and the default feedback  
servo voltage setting is 800mV. Once enabled with these  
default settings, the settings can always be changed on

The output of the current comparator resets the internal  
latch which causes the main P-channel MOSFET switch to  
turn off and the N-channel MOSFET synchronous rectifier  
to turn on. The N-channel MOSFET synchronous rectifier  
turns off at the end of the 2.25MHz cycle or if the current  
through the N-channel MOSFET synchronous rectifier  
drops to zero. Using this method of operation, the error  
amplifier adjusts the peak inductor current to deliver the  
required output power. All necessary compensation is  
internal to the switching regulator requiring only a single  
ceramic output capacitor for stability. At light loads in  
pulse skip mode, the inductor current may reach zero  
on each pulse which will turn off the N-channel MOSFET  
synchronous rectifier. In this case, the switch node (SW)  
goes high impedance and the switch node voltage will  
“ring.” This is discontinuous mode operation, and is  
normal behavior for a switching regulator. At very light  
loads in pulse skip mode, the switching regulators will  
automatically skip pulses as needed to maintain output

Unlike the Type-A regulators, the two Type-B regulators  
do not require an external resistor divider network to  
program its output voltage. Regulators R600B and R400B  
havefeedbackresistornetworksinternaltothechipwhose  
2
values can be adjusted through I C control. These inter-  
nal feedback resistors can be configured such that the  
output voltages can be programmed directly. The output  
voltages can be programmed from 600mV to 3.775V in  
25mV increments.  
Pins OUT600B and OUT400B are feedback sense pins that  
connecttothetopoftheinternalresistordividernetworks.  
These output pins should sense the output voltages of  
the regulators right at the output capacitor C (after the  
inductor), as illustrated in Figure 2.

Regulator Operating Modes  
All of the LTC3562’s switching regulators include four  
possible operating modes to meet the noise/power needs  
of a variety of applications.  
In forced Burst Mode operation, the switching regulators  
use a constant-current algorithm to control the inductor  
current. By controlling the inductor current directly and  
using a hysteretic control loop, both noise and switch-  
ing losses are minimized. In this mode output power is  
limited. While operating in forced Burst Mode operation,  
In pulse skip mode, an internal latch is set at the start of

OPERATION  
the output capacitor is charged to a voltage slightly higher  
than the regulation point. The step-down converter then  
goes into sleep mode, during which the output capacitor  
provides the load current. In sleep mode, most of the  
regulator’s circuitry is powered down, helping conserve  
battery power and increase efficiency. When the output  
voltage drops below a predetermined value, the switching  
regulator circuitry is powered on and another burst cycle  
begins. The duration for which the regulator operates in  
sleep mode depends on the load current. The sleep time  
decreasesastheloadcurrentincreases.ForcedBurstMode  
operation has a maximum deliverable output current of  
about 140mA for the 600mA regulators and 100mA for  
the 400mA regulators. Beyond the maximum deliverable  
output current, the step-down switching regulator will not  
enter sleep mode and the output will drop out of regula-  
tion. Forced Burst Mode operation provides a significant  
improvement in efficiency at light loads at the expense of  
higher output ripple when compared to pulse skip mode.  
For many noise-sensitive systems, forced Burst Mode  
operation might be undesirable at certain times (i.e.,  
during a transmit or receive cycle of a wireless device),  
but highly desirable at others (i.e., when the device is in  
Dropout Operation  
It is possible for V to approach a switching regulator’s  
IN  
programmedoutputvoltage(e.g.,abatteryvoltageof3.4V  
with a programmed output voltage of 3.3V). When this  
happens, the PMOS switch duty cycle increases until it is  
turned on continuously at 100%. In this dropout condi-  
tion, the respective output voltage equals the regulator’s  
input voltage minus the voltage drops across the internal  
P-channel MOSFET and the inductor.  
Soft-Start Operation  
Soft-start is accomplished by gradually increasing the  
peak inductor current for each switching regulator over  
a 500μs period. This allows each output to rise slowly,  
helping minimize the battery in-rush current. A soft-  
start cycle occurs whenever a given switching regula-  
tor is enabled, or after a fault condition has occurred  
(thermal shutdown). A soft-start cycle is not triggered  
by changing operating modes. This allows seamless  
output operation when transitioning between Burst  
Mode operation, forced Burst Mode operation, pulse  
skip mode or LDO mode.

offering both low noise and low power operation when  
they are needed.  
The step-down switching regulators contain new pat-  
ent pending circuitry to limit the slew rate of the switch  
node (SWx). This new circuitry is designed to transition  
the switch node over a period of a couple nanoseconds,  
significantly reducing radiated EMI and conducted supply  
noise, while keeping efficiency high.  
InBurstModeoperation,theswitchingregulatorautomati-  
callyswitchesbetweenxedfrequencypulseskipoperation  
and hysteretic control as a function of the load current. At  
light loads the regulators operate in hysteretic mode and  
at heavy loads they operate in constant-frequency mode.  
The constant-frequency mode provides the same output  
ripple and efficiency as pulse skip mode while hysteretic  
mode provides slightly lower output ripple than forced  
Burst Mode operation at the expense of slightly lower  
efficiency.  
Step-Down Switching Regulator in Shutdown  
Thestep-downswitchingregulatorsareinshutdownwhen  
not enabled for operation. In shutdown, all circuitry in  
the step-down switching regulator is disconnected from  
the switching regulator input supply, leaving only a few  
nano-amps of leakage current. The step-down switch-  
ing regulator outputs are individually pulled to ground  
through a 2k resistor on the switch pin (SWx) when in  
shutdown.  
Finally, the switching regulators have an LDO mode that  
gives a DC option for regulating their output voltages. In  
LDOmode,theswitchingregulatorsareconvertedtolinear  
regulators and deliver continuous power from their SWx  
pins through their respective inductors. This mode gives  
the lowest possible output noise as well as low quiescent  
current at light loads.

TheLTC3562maycommunicatewithahost(master)using  
The Acknowledge signal is used for handshaking between  
the master and the slave. An Acknowledge (active LOW)  
generated by the slave (LTC3562) lets the master know  
that the latest byte of information was received. The  
Acknowledge-related clock pulse is generated by the  
master. The master releases the SDA line (HIGH) during  
theAcknowledgeclockcycle.Theslave-receivermustpull

Figure 4 shows the timing relationship of the signals on  
the bus. The two bus lines, SDA and SCL, must be high  
when the bus is not in use. External pull-up resistors or  
current sources, such as the LTC1694 SMBus Accelerator,  
are required on these lines. The LTC3562 is a receive-only

The LTC3562 responds to only one 7-bit address which  
has been factory programmed to 11001010. The eighth  
bit of the address byte (R/W) must be 0 for the LTC3562  
to recognize the address since it is a write-only device.  
This effectively forces the address to be 8 bits long where  
the least significant bit of the address is 0. If the correct  
7-bit address is given but the R/W bit is 1, the LTC3562  
will not respond.

port is cleared and the two switching Type-A regulators  
are set to full scale.  
Bus Speed  
2
The I C port is designed to be operated at speeds of up  
to 400kHz. It has built-in timing delays to ensure correct  
2
operation when addressed from an I C compliant master  
device. It also contains input filters designed to suppress  
glitches should the bus become corrupted.  
Sub-Address Byte  
The sub-address byte uses bits A7 through A4 to specify  
the regulator(s) being programmed by that particular  
three-bytesequence(refertoTable2). Aspecificregulator  
gets programmed if its corresponding sub-address bit is  
high, whereas the regulator ignores the 3-byte sequence  
if its sub-address bit is low. Note that multiple regulators  
can be programmed by the same 3-byte sequence if more  
than one of the sub-address bits are high. Bits A1 and A0  
ofthesub-addressbyteareusedtoprogramtheoperating  
mode (Table 3). Bits A3 and A2 of the sub-address byte  
are not used.  
START and STOP Conditions  
A bus master signals the beginning of a communication  
to a slave device by transmitting a start condition. A start  
condition is generated by transitioning SDA from high  
to low while SCL is high. When the master has finished  
communicating with the slave, it issues a stop condition  
by transitioning SDA from low to high while SCL is high.  
2
The bus is then free for communication with another I C  
device.  
Byte Format  
Data Byte  
Each byte sent to the LTC3562 must be 8 bits long fol-  
lowed by an extra clock cycle for the Acknowledge bit to  
be returned by the LTC3562. The data should be sent to  
the LTC3562 most significant bit (MSB) first.  
The data byte only affects the regulators that are specified  
to be programmed by the sub-address byte. The MSB  
of the data byte (B7) is used to enable or disable the  
regulator(s) being programmed. A high B7 indicates an  
enable command, whereas a low B7 indicates a shutdown  
command.

OPERATION  
If a Type-A regulator is being programmed, then bits B3  
through B0 program the DAC that controls the regulator’s  
feedback servo voltage. This 4-bit sequence programs the  
feedback voltage from 425mV to 800mV in 25mV incre-  
ments (Table 4). Bits B6 through B4 are not used when  
programming a Type-A regulator.  
will ignore this stop condition and will not respond until a  
new start condition, correct address, new set of data and  
stop condition are transmitted.  
Likewise, with only one exception, if the LTC3562 was  
previously addressed and sent valid data but not updated  
with a Stop, it will respond to any Stop that appears on  
the bus, independent of the number of Repeat-Starts that  
have occurred. If a Repeat-Start is given and the LTC3562  
successfully acknowledges its address, it will not respond  
to a Stop until all three bytes of the new data have been  
received and acknowledged.  
If a Type-B regulator is being programmed, then bits B6  
through B0 program the DAC that controls the regulator’s  
output voltage. This 7-bit sequence programs the output  
voltage from 600mV to 3.775V in 25mV increments  
(Tables 5 and 6).

then deliver the sub-address byte for the regulator(s)  
being programmed. Again the LTC3562 acknowledges  
and then the data byte is delivered starting with the most  
significant bit. The data byte and the two mode bits in the  
sub-address byte are transferred to an internal holding  
latch for each programmed regulator upon the return  
of an Acknowledge. After the sub-address byte and data  
byte have been transferred to the LTC3562, the master  
may terminate the communication with a stop condition.  
Alternatively, a repeat-start condition can be initiated by  
the master and the entire sequence can be repeated, this  
time accessing a different sub-address code to program  
another regulator. Likewise, the master can also initiate a

Table 7 shows several inductors that work well with the

feragoodcompromiseincurrentrating,DCRandphysical

on their entire selection of inductors.  
Many different sizes and shapes of inductors are avail-  
able from numerous manufacturers. Choosing the right  
inductor from such a large selection of devices can be  
overwhelming, but following a few basic guidelines will  
make the selection process much simpler.

for the more powerful switching regulators R600A and  
R600B.Largervalueinductorsreduceripplecurrentwhich  
improves output ripple voltage. Lower value inductors  
result in higher ripple current and improved transient re-  
sponse time, but will reduce the available output current.  
To maximize efficiency, choose an inductor with a low DC  
resistance. For a 1.2V output, efficiency is reduced about  
2% for 100mΩ series resist-ance at 400mA load current,  
and about 2% for 300mΩ series resistance at 100mA load  
current. Choose an inductor with a DC current rating at  
least 1.5 times larger than the maximum load current to  
ensure that the inductor does not saturate during normal  
operation. If output short circuit is a possible condition,  
the inductor should be rated to handle the maximum peak  
current specified for the step-down converters.

Differentcorematerialsandshapeswillchangethesize/cur-  
rent and price/current relationship of an inductor. Toroid  
or shielded pot cores in ferrite or Permalloy™ materials  
are small and do not radiate much energy, but generally  
cost more than powdered iron core inductors with similar  
electrical characteristics. Inductors that are very thin or  
have a very small volume typically have much higher core  
and DCR losses, and will not give the best efficiency. The  
choice of which style inductor to use often depends more  
on the price versus size, performance, and any radiated  
EMI requirements than on what the LTC3562 requires to  
operate.  
* Typical DCR  
Input/Output Capacitor Selection  
LowESR(equivalentseriesresistance)ceramiccapacitors  
should be used at the switching regulator outputs as well  
as the input supply. Only X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors  
should be used because they retain their capacitance  
over wider voltage and temperature ranges than other  
ceramic types. A 10μF output capacitor is sufficient for  
most applications. For good transient response and sta-  
bility the output capacitor should retain at least 4μF of  
capacitance over operating temperature and bias voltage.  
The input supply should be bypassed with a 10μF capaci-  
tor, or greater. Consult with capacitor manufacturers for  
detailed information on their selection and specifications  
of ceramic capacitors. Many manufacturers now offer  
The inductor value also has an effect on Burst Mode and  
forced Burst Mode operations. Lower inductor values will  
cause the Burst Mode and forced Burst Mode switching  
frequencies to increase.

result in higher thermal resistances.  
Furthermore, duetoitshighfrequencyswitchingcircuitry,  
it is imperative that the input capacitors, inductors, and  
output capacitors be as close to the LTC3562 as possible  
and that there be an unbroken ground plane under the  
LTC3562 and all of its external high frequency compo-  
nents. High frequency currents on the LTC3562 tend to  
find their way along the ground plane in a myriad of paths  
ranging from directly back to a mirror path beneath the  
incident path on the top of the board. If there are slits or  
cuts in the ground plane due to other traces on that layer,  
the current will be forced to go around the slits. If high  
frequency currents are not allowed to flow back through  
their natural least-area path, excessive voltage will build  
up and radiated emissions will occur. There should be a  
group of vias directly under the grounded backside of the
