550kHz Micropower Step-Down DC/DC Controller
The LTC
®
3801/LTC3801B are constant frequency cur-
rent mode step-down DC/DC controllers in a low profile
(1mm max) 6-lead SOT-23 (ThinSOT
TM
)
package. The
parts provide excellent AC and DC load and line regula-
tion with ±1.5% output voltage accuracy. The LTC3801
consumes only 195µA of quiescent current in normal
operation, dropping to 16µA under no-load conditions.
The LTC3801
/LTC3801B
incorporate an undervoltage lock-
out feature that shuts down the device when the input
voltage falls below 2.2V. The LTC3801 automatically
switches into Burst Mode operation at light loads which
enhances efficiency at low output current. In the LTC3801B,
Burst Mode operation is disabled for lower output ripple at
light loads.
To further maximize the life of a battery source, the
external P-channel MOSFET is turned on continuously in
dropout (100% duty cycle). High switching frequency of
550kHz allows the use of a small inductor.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: The LTC3801ES6/LTC3801BES6 are guaranteed to meet specifica-
tions 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:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
θ
JA
°C/W)
Note 4: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 5: The LTC3801/LTC3801B are tested in a feedback loop that servos
V
FB
to the output of the error amplifier while maintaining I
TH
/RUN at the
midpoint of the current limit range.
Note 6: Peak current sense voltage is reduced dependent on duty cycle as
given in Figure 1.
