TYPICAL APPLICATION
DESCRIPTION
800mA Synchronous
Step-Down DC/DC with
Average Input Current Limit
The LTC
®
3606B is an 800mA monolithic synchronous
buck regulator using a constant frequency current mode
architecture.
The input supply voltage range is 2.5V to 5.5V, making it
ideal for Li-Ion and USB powered applications. 100% duty
cycle capability provides low dropout operation, extending
the run time in battery-operated systems. Low output
voltages are supported with the 0.6V feedback reference
voltage. The LTC3606B can supply 800mA output current.
The LTC3606B’s programmable average input current limit
is ideal for USB applications and for point-of-load power
supplies because the LTC3606B’s limited input current
will still allow its output to deliver high peak load cur-
rents without collapsing the input supply. The operating
frequency is internally set at 2.25MHz allowing the use of
small surface mount inductors. Internal soft-start reduces
in-rush current during start-up. The LTC3606B is available
in an 8-Lead 3mm × 3mm DFN package.

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: Guaranteed by long term current density limitations.
Note 3: The LTC3606BE is guaranteed to meet performance specifi cations
from 0°C to 85°C. Specifi cations over the –40°C to 85°C operating
junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and
correlation with statistical process controls. The LTC3606BI is guaranteed
to meet specifi ed performance over the full –40°C to 125°C operating
junction temperature range.
Note 4: Dynamic 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
junction temperature range, otherwise specifi cations are at T
A
= 25°C, V
IN
= 5V, unless otherwise noted.
Note 5: The switch on-resistance is guaranteed by correlation to wafer
level measurements.
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 specifi ed maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 7: The converter is tested in a proprietary test mode that connects
the output of the error amplifi er to the SW pin, which is connected to an
external servo loop.
Note 8: T

is calculated from the ambient temperature T

and the power
dissipation as follows: T
