DC/DC Regulator
The LTC
®
3407-2 is a dual, constant frequency, synchro-
nous step down DC/DC converter. Intended for low power
applications, it operates from 2.5V to 5.5V input voltage
range and has a constant 2.25MHz switching frequency,
allowing the use of tiny, low cost capacitors and inductors
with a profile ≤1.2mm. Each output voltage is adjustable
from 0.6V to 5V. Internal synchronous 0.35Ω, 1.2A power
switches provide high efficiency without the need for
external Schottky diodes.
A user selectable mode input is provided to allow the user
to trade-off noise ripple for low power efficiency. Burst
Mode
®
operation provides high efficiency at light loads,
while Pulse Skip Mode provides low noise ripple at light
loads.
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
40µA. In shutdown, the device draws <1µA.
