TYPICAL APPLICATION
DESCRIPTION
Dual Channel 3A, 20V
Monolithic Synchronous
Step-Down Regulator
The LT C
®
3633A-2 is a high efficiency, dual-channel mono-
lithic synchronous buck regulator using a controlled on-time,
current mode architecture, with phase lockable switching
frequency. The two channels can run 180° out of phase to
relax the requirements for input and output capacitance. The
operating supply voltage range is from 3.6V to 20V, making
it suitable for lithium-ion battery stacks as well as point of
load power supply applications from a 12V or 5V supply.
The operating frequency is programmable from 500kHz to
4MHz with an external resistor and may be synchronized
to an external clock signal. The high frequency capabil
-
ity allows the use of small surface mount inductors and
capacitors. The unique constant frequency/controlled on-
time architecture
is ideal for high step-down ratio applica
-
tions that operate at high frequency while demanding fast
transient response. An internal phase locked loop servos
the on-time of the internal one-shot timer to match the
frequency of the internal clock or an applied external clock.
The LTC3633A-2 can select between forced continuous
mode and high efficiency Burst Mode operation. The
LTC3633A-2 and LTC3633A-3 differ in their output volt
-
age sense range (refer to Table 1 in the Operation section
for a description of the entire LTC3633A product family).
