Theoperatingfrequencyisprogrammablefrom800kHzto
4MHz with an external resistor. The high frequency capa-
bility allows the use of small surface mount inductors. For
switching noise sensitive applications, it can be externally
synchronized from 800kHz to 4MHz. The PHMODE pin
allows user control of the phase of the outgoing clock
signal. The unique constant frequency/controlled on-time
architecture is ideal for high step-down ratio applications
that are operating at high frequency while demanding
fast transient response. Two internal phase-lock loops
synchronize the internal oscillator to the external clock
and also servos the regulator on-time to lock on to either
the internal clock or the external clock if it’s present.

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. Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond
which the life of a device may be impaired.
Note 4: The LTC3605 is tested in a feedback loop that adjusts V to
achieve a specified error amplifier output voltage (ITH).
FB
Note 5: T is calculated from the ambient temperature T and
J
A
power dissipation as follows: T = T + P • (37°C/W). See Thermal
J
A
D
Considerations section.
Note 2: The LTC3605E 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 controls. The LTC3605I is guaranteed over the full
–40°C to 125°C operating temperature range.
Note 6: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 3: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the internal gate charge
being delivered at the switching frequency.

condition except during start-up when the TRACK pin is
ramping up to 0.6V.
The LTC3605 is a current mode monolithic step-down
regulator. In normal operation, the internal top power
MOSFET is turned on for a fixed interval determined by
a one-shot timer, OST. When the top power MOSFET
turns off, the bottom power MOSFET turns on until the

Once the value for L is known, the type of inductor must

for a fixed inductor value, but is very dependent on the

inductance requires more turns of wire and therefore
copper losses will increase.

additional efficiency degradations in the overall power
system. It is very important to include these “system”
level losses in the design of a system. Transition loss
arises from the brief amount of time the top power

node transitions. The LTC3605 internal power devices

bias the PGOOD pin to a negative voltage. With no output
current load, measure the PGOOD voltage at an ambient
temperature of 25°C, 75°C and 125°C to establish a slope
relationship between the delta voltage on PGOOD and
deltaambienttemperature.Oncethisslopeisestablished,
then the junction temperature rise can be measured as a
function of power loss in the package with corresponding
outputloadcurrent.Keepinmindthatdoingsowillviolate
absolute maximum voltage ratings on the PGOOD pin,
however, with the limited current, no damage will result.

TheQFN4mm×4mmpackagejunction-to-ambientthermal
resistance, θ , is around 37°C/W. Therefore, the junction
JA
temperature of the regulator operating in a 25°C ambient
temperature is approximately:
T = 1.14W • 37°C/W + 25°C = 67°C
J
Remembering that the above junction temperature is
obtained from an R
at 25°C, we might recalculate
DS(ON)
the junction temperature based on a higher R
since
DS(ON)
it increases with temperature. Redoing the calculation
assuming that R increased 15% at 67°C yields a new
SW
junction temperature of 72°C. If the application calls for
a higher ambient temperature and/or higher switching
frequency, careshouldbetakentoreducethetemperature
rise of the part by using a heat sink or air flow. Figure 2
is a temperature derating curve based on the DC1215
demo board.
Board Layout Considerations
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
checklist should be used to ensure proper operation of
the LTC3605 (refer to Figure 3). Check the following in
your layout:

1. Do the capacitors C connect to the power PV and

power PGND as close as possible? These capacitors
provide the AC current to the internal power MOSFETs
and their drivers.

Because efficiency is important at both high and low load
current, discontinuous mode operation will be utilized.

package to the PGND plane. Connect this PGND plane
to other layers with thermal vias to help dissipate heat
from the LTC3605.
