Dual Synchronous
1.5A/1A 4MHz Step-Down
DC/DC Regulator with POR
The LTC
®
3417A-1 is a dual constant frequency, synchro-
nous step-down DC/DC converter. Intended for medium
power applications, it operates from a 2.25V to 5.5V input
voltage range and has a constant programmable switching
frequency, allowing the use of tiny, low cost capacitors
and inductors 2mm or less in height. Each output voltage
is adjustable from 0.8V to 5V. Internal synchronous, low
R
DS(ON)
power switches provide high effi ciency without
the need for external Schottky diodes.
The open drain POR pin goes low when either output
voltage falls 6% below regulation. The output will remain
low 150ms longer than the duration of the out of regula-
tion condition.
A user selectable mode input allows the user to trade
off ripple voltage for light load effi ciency. Burst Mode
operation provides high effi ciency at light loads, while
pulse skip mode provides low ripple noise at light loads.
A phase mode pin allows the second channel to operate
in-phase or 180° out-of-phase with respect to channel 1.
Out-of-phase operation produces lower RMS current on
V
IN
and thus lower stress on the input capacitor.
To further maximize battery life, the P-channel MOSFETs
are turned on continuously in dropout (100% duty cycle)
and both channels draw a total quiescent current of only
100µA. In shutdown, the device draws <1µA.
