DESCRIPTION
Dual Synchronous
1.4A/800mA 4MHz
Step-Down DC/DC Regulator
The LTC
®
3417 is a dual constant frequency, synchronous
step-down DC/DC converter. Intended for medium power
applications, it operates from a 2.25V to 5.5V input volt-
age range and has a constant programmable switching
frequency, allowing the use of tiny, low cost capacitors
and inductors 2mm or less in height. Each output voltage
is adjustable from 0.8V to 5V. Internal synchronous low
R
DS(ON)
power switches provide high effi ciency without
the need for external Schottky diodes.
A user selectable mode input allows the user to trade
off ripple voltage for light load effi ciency. Burst Mode
®
operation provides high effi ciency at light loads, while
Pulse Skip mode provides low ripple noise at light loads.
A phase mode pin allows the second channel to operate
in-phase or 180° out-of-phase with respect to channel 1.
Out-of-phase operation produces lower RMS current on
V
IN
and thus lower RMS derating on the input capacitor.
To further maximize battery life, the P-channel MOSFETs
are turned on continuously in dropout (100% duty cycle)
and both channels draw a total quiescent current of only
125µA. In shutdown, the device draws <1µA.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
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 LTC3417 is guaranteed to meet specifi ed performance from
0°C to 85°C. Specifi cations over the –40°C to 85°C operating ambient
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls.
Note 3: The LTC3417 is tested in feedback loop which servos V
FB1
to the
midpoint for the error amplifi er (V
ITH1
= 0.6V) and V
FB2
to the midpoint for
the error amplifi er (V
ITH2
= 0.6V).
Note 4: Total supply current is higher due to the internal gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
The l denotes the specifi cations which apply over the full operating
temperature range, otherwise specifi cations are at T
A
= 25°C. V
IN
= 3.6V unless otherwise specifi ed. (Note 2)
Note 5: Switch on-resistance is guaranteed by design and test correlation
on the DHC package and by fi nal test correlation on the FE package.
Note 6: Variable frequency operation with resistor is guaranteed by design
but not production tested and is subject to duty cycle limitations.
Note 7: 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 specifi ed maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 8: T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature, T
A
, and power dis-
sipation, P
D
, according to the following formula:
LTC3417EDHC: T
J
= T
A
+ (P

• 43°C/W)
LTC3417EFE: T

= T
