Overview

The LTC®3868 is a high performance dual step-down switching regulator controller that drives all N-channel synchronous power MOSFET stages. A constant frequency current mode architecture allows a phase-lockable frequency of up to 850kHz.

  • Low Operating IQ: 170µA (One Channel On)
  • Wide Output Voltage Range: 0.8V ≤ VOUT ≤ 14V
  • Wide VIN Range: 4V to 24V
  • RSENSE or DCR Current Sensing
  • Out-of-Phase Controllers Reduce Required Input Capacitance and Power Supply Induced Noise
  • OPTI-LOOP® Compensation Minimizes COUT
  • Phase-Lockable Frequency (75kHz to 850kHz)
  • Programmable Fixed Frequency (50kHz to 900kHz)
  • Selectable Continuous, Pulse-Skipping or Burst Mode® Operation at Light Loads
  • Very Low Dropout Operation: 99% Duty Cycle
