LT8609/LT8609A/LT8609B 42V, 2A/3A Peak Synchronous Step-Down Regulator with 2.5µA Quiescent Current FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Wide Input Voltage Range: 3.0V to 42V The LT®8609/LT8609A/LT8609B is a compact, high ef- n Ultralow Quiescent Current Burst Mode® Operation: ficiency, high speed synchronous monolithic step-down n <2.5µA IQ Regulating 12VIN to 3.3VOUT switching regulator that consumes only 1.7µA of non- n Output Ripple <10mVP-P switching quiescent current. The LT8609/LT8609A/LT8609B n High Efficiency 2MHz Synchronous Operation: can deliver 2A of continuous current with peak loads of n >93% Efficiency at 1A, 5VOUT from 12VIN 3A (<1sec). Burst Mode operation enables high efficiency n 2A Maximum Continuous Output, 3A Peak down to very low output currents while keeping the output Transient Output ripple below 10mVP-P. A SYNC pin allows synchronization to n Fast Minimum Switch-On Time: 45ns an external clock, or spread spectrum modulation for low EMI n Adjustable and Synchronizable: 200kHz to 2.2MHz operation. Internal compensation with peak current mode n Spread Spectrum Frequency Modulation for Low EMI topology allows the use of small inductors and results in fast n Allows Use of Small Inductors transient response and good loop stability. The EN/UV pin n Low Dropout has an accurate 1V threshold and can be used to program n Peak Current Mode Operation VIN UVLO or to shut down the part. A capacitor on the TR/SS n Accurate 1V Enable Pin Threshold pin programs the output voltage ramp rate during start-up n Internal Compensation while the PG flag signals when VOUT is within ±8.5% of the n Output Soft-Start and Tracking programmed output voltage as well as fault conditions. The n Small 10-Lead or 16-Lead MSOP Package LT8609A has slower switch edges for lower EMI emissions. The LT8609B operates in pulse-skipping mode only.
