The LTC
®
3425 is a synchronous, 4-phase boost converter
with output disconnect capable of operation below 1V
input. It includes four N-channel MOSFET switches and
four P-channel synchronous rectifiers for an effective
R
DS(ON)
of 0.045 and 0.05, respectively. 4-phase
operation greatly reduces peak inductor currents, and
capacitor ripple current, and increases effective switching
frequency, minimizing inductor and capacitor sizes. True
output disconnect eliminates inrush current and allows
zero load current in shutdown. External Schottky diodes
are not required in most applications (V
OUT
< 4.3V). Power
saving Burst Mode operation can be user controlled or left
in automatic mode.
Other features include 1µA shutdown current, program-
mable frequency with sync in and out, programmable
soft-start, antiringing control, thermal shutdown, adjust-
able current limit, reference output and power good
comparator.
The LTC3425 is available in a small, thermally enhanced
32-pin QFN package.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: Current is measured into the V

pin since the supply current is
bootstrapped to the output. The current will reflect to the input supply by

Note 3: Once the output is started, the IC is not dependent on the V

supply.
Note 4: Total with all four FETs in parallel.
Note 5: The LTC3425E 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 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.
