The LTC
®
3405A is a high efficiency monolithic synchro-
nous buck regulator using a constant frequency, current
mode architecture. Supply current during operation is
only 20µA and drops to <1µA in shutdown. The 2.5V to
5.5V input voltage range makes the LTC3405A ideally
suited for single Li-Ion battery-powered applications. 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 LTC3405A is specifically designed to work well with
ceramic output capacitors, achieving very low output
voltage ripple and a small PCB footprint.
The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and
eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. Low
output voltages are easily supported with the 0.8V feed-
back reference voltage. The LTC3405A is available in a low
profile (1mm) ThinSOT package.
For fixed 1.5V and 1.8V output versions, refer to the
LTC3405A-1.5/LTC3405A-1.8 data sheet.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: The LTC3405AE is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls.
Note 3: T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature T
A
and power
dissipation P
D
according to the following formula:
LTC3405A: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
)(250°C/W)
Note 4: The LTC3405A is tested in a proprietary test mode that connects
V
FB
to the output of the error amplifier.
Note 5: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
