DESCRIPTIO
Operates from Input Voltage As Low As 2V Internal 0.7A Synchronous Switches Uses Ceramic Input and Output Capacitors 620mV Reference Voltage 800kHz Fixed Frequency Switching Programmable Burst Mode Operation Low Quiescent Current: 160A 8-Lead MSOP or SO Package
APPLICATIO S
s s s s
The LT(R)1612 is an 800kHz, synchronous step-down DC/ DC converter that operates from an input voltage as low as 2V. Internal 0.45 switches deliver output currents up to 500mA, and the 800kHz switching frequency allows the use of small, low value ceramic input and output capacitors. Input voltage ranges from 5.5V down to 2V and output voltage can be set as low as the 620mV reference. The device features Burst ModeTM operation, keeping efficiency high at light loads. Burst Mode operation can be defeated by pulling the MODE pin high, enabling constant switching throughout the load range for low noise. No-load quiescent current is 160A and shutdown current is less than 1A. The device is available in 8-lead SO and MSOP packages.

PIN FUNCTIONS
VC (Pin 1): Compensation Pin. This is the current sink/ source output of the error amplifier. By connecting an RC network from this pin to ground, frequency response can be tuned for a wide range of circuit configurations. The voltage at this pin also sets the current limit, and if grounded, the switch will remain in the OFF state. FB (Pin 2): Feedback Pin. This pin is the negative input to the error amplifier. Connect the resistor divider tap to this point which sets VOUT according to: VOUT = 0.62V (1 + R1/R2) VIN (Pin 3): Supply Pin. Bypass capacitor C1 must be right next to this pin. GND (Pin 4): Ground Pin. Connect directly to local ground plane. SW (Pin 5): Switch Pin. Connect inductor and boost capacitor here. Minimize trace area at this pin to keep EMI down. BOOST (Pin 6): This is the supply pin for the switch driver and must be above VIN by 1.5V for proper switch operation. Connect the boost capacitor to this pin. MODE (Pin 7): Burst Mode Operation Disable Pin. For continuous switching operation (low noise), pull this pin above 2V. For Burst Mode operation which gives better light load efficiency, tie to ground. Output ripple voltage in Burst Mode operation is typically 30mVP-P. See applications section for more information about this function. SHDN (Pin 8): Shutdown Pin. Pull this pin low for shutdown mode. Tie to a voltage between 2V and 5.5V for normal operation.

OPERATIO
The LT1612 employs fixed frequency, current mode control. This type of control uses two feedback loops. The main control loop sets output voltage and operates as follows: A load step causes VOUT and the FB voltage to be perturbed slightly. The error amplifier responds to this change in FB by driving the VC pin either higher or lower. Because switch current is proportional to the VC pin voltage, this change causes the switch current to be adjusted until VOUT is once again satisfied. Loop compensation is taken care of by an RC network from the VC pin to ground. Inside this main loop is another that sets current limit on a cycle-by-cycle basis. This loop utilizes current comparator A2 to control peak current. The oscillator runs at 800kHz and issues a set pulse to the flip-flop at the beginning of each cycle, turning the switch on. With the switch now in the ON state the SW pin is effectively connected to VIN. Current ramps up in the inductor linearly at a rate of (VIN - VOUT)/L. Switch current is set by the VC pin voltage and when the voltage across RSENSE trips the current comparator, a reset pulse will be generated and the switch will be turned off. Since the inductor is now loaded up with current, the SW pin will fly low and trigger the rectifier to turn on. Current will flow through the rectifier decreasing at a rate of VOUT/L until the oscillator issues a new set pulse, causing the cycle to repeat. If the load is light and VC decreases below A3's trip point, the device will enter the Burst Mode operation region (the MODE pin must be at ground or floating). In this state the oscillator and all other circuitry except the reference and comparator A3 are switched on and off at low frequency. This mode of operation increases efficiency at light loads but introduces low frequency voltage ripple at the output. For continuous switching and no low frequency output voltage ripple, pull the MODE pin high. This will disable comparator A3 which forces the oscillator to run continuously.

Layout Hints The LT1612 switches current at high speed, mandating careful attention to layout for proper performance. You will not get advertised performance with careless layout. Figure 2 shows recommended component placement for a buck (step-down) converter. Follow this closely in your PC layout. Note the direct path of the switching loops. Input capacitor C1 must be placed close (< 5mm) to the IC package. As little as 10mm of wire or PC trace from CIN to VIN will cause problems such as inability to regulate or oscillation. The ground terminal of input capacitor C1 should tie close to Pin 4 of the LT1612. Doing this reduces dI/dt in the ground copper which keeps high frequency spikes to a minimum. The DC/DC converter ground should tie to the PC board ground plane at one place only, to avoid introducing dI/dt in the ground plane.

OPERATIO
Burst Mode Operation Defeat To maintain high efficiency at light loads, the LT1612 will automatically shift into Burst Mode operation (MODE = 0V or floating). In this mode of operation the oscillator and switch drive circuitry is alternately turned on and off, reducing quiescent current to 160A. This reduces power

consumption but also adds low frequency voltage ripple to the output. Figure 3 shows switching waveforms for a 5V to 3.3V converter running in Burst Mode operation. Output voltage ripple is approximately 20mVP-P. If the MODE pin is pulled high, Burst Mode operation will be inhibited and the oscillator runs continuously with no low frequency ripple at the output. See Figures 4 and 5.
