The LTC
®
1430A is a high power, high efficiency switching
regulator controller optimized for 5V to 1.xV-3.xV applica-
tions. It includes a precision internal reference and an inter-
nal feedback system that can provide output regulation of
±1% over temperature, load current and line voltage shifts.
The LTC1430A uses a synchronous switching architecture
with two N-channel output devices, eliminating the need for
a high power, high cost P-channel device. Additionally, it
senses output current across the drain-source resistance
of the upper N-channel FET, providing an adjustable cur-
rent limit without an external low value sense resistor.
The LTC1430A includes a fixed frequency PWM oscillator
for low output ripple under virtually all operating condi-
tions. The 200kHz free-running clock frequency can be
externally adjusted from 100kHz to above 500kHz. The
LTC1430A’s maximum duty cycle is typically 93.5% com-
pared to 88% for the LTC1430. This permits 3.3V to 2.xV
conversion using a low power 5V supply. The LTC1430A
features low 350µA quiescent current, allowing greater
than 90% efficiency operation in converter designs from
1A to greater than 50A output current. Shutdown mode
drops the LTC1430A supply current to 1µA. For new
designs, refer to the LTC3830.

The denotes specifications which apply over the full operating
temperature range.
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device
pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground unless otherwise
specified.
Note 3: Supply current in normal operation is dominated by the current
needed to charge and discharge the external FET gates. This will vary with
the LTC1430A operating frequency, operating voltage and the external
FETs used.
Note 4: The I
LIM
amplifier can sink but cannot source current. Under
normal (not current limited) operation, the I
LIM
output current will be zero.
Note 5: The open-loop DC gain and transconductance from the FB pin
(SENSE
+
and SENSE
floating) to COMP pin will be A
V
and gm
V
respectively.
