TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
UW
voltage is obtained by using the output of a voltage
sensing error amplifier to set current trip level. This
technique has several advantages. First, it has immediate
response to input voltage variations, unlike ordinary
switchers which have notoriously poor line transient
response. Second, it reduces the 90° phase shift at
The LT1070/LT1071 is a current mode switcher. This
means that switch duty cycle is directly controlled by
switch current rather than by output voltage. Referring to
the Block Diagram, the switch is turned “on” at the start
of each oscillator cycle. It is turned “off” when switch
current reaches a predetermined level. Control of output
