7 / 16 page LTC3548 7 3548fa decrease causes the error amplifier to increase the ITH voltage until the average inductor current matches the new load current. The main control loop is shut down by pulling the RUN pin to ground. Low Current Operation By selecting MODE/SYNC (pin 6), two modes are available to control the operation of the LTC3548 at low currents. Both modes automatically switch from continuous operation to the selected mode when the load current is low. To optimize efficiency, the Burst Mode operation can be selected. When the load is relatively light, the LTC3548 automatically switches into Burst Mode operation, in which the PMOS switch operates intermittently based on load demand with a fixed peak inductor current. By running cycles periodically, the switching losses which are domi- nated by the gate charge losses of the power MOSFETs are minimized. The main control loop is interrupted when the output voltage reaches the desired regulated value. A voltage comparator trips when ITH is below 0.35V, shutting off the switch and reducing the power. The output capaci- tor and the inductor supply the power to the load until ITH exceeds 0.65V, turning on the switch and the main control loop which starts another cycle. For lower ripple noise at low currents, the pulse skipping mode can be used. In this mode, the LTC3548 continues to switch at a constant frequency down to very low cur- rents, where it will begin skipping pulses. The efficiency in pulse skip mode can be improved slightly by connecting the SW node to the MODE/SYNC input which reduces the clock frequency by approximately 30%. Dropout Operation When the input supply voltage decreases toward the output voltage, the duty cycle increases to 100% which is the dropout condition. In dropout, the PMOS switch is turned on continuously with the output voltage being equal to the input voltage minus the voltage drops across the internal p-channel MOSFET and the inductor. An important design consideration is that the RDS(ON) of the P-channel switch increases with decreasing input supply voltage (See Typical Performance Characteristics). Therefore, the user should calculate the power dissipation when the LTC3548 is used at 100% duty cycle with low input voltage (See Thermal Considerations in the Applica- tions Information Section). Low Supply Operation To prevent unstable operation, the LTC3548 incorporates an Under-Voltage Lockout circuit which shuts down the part when the input voltage drops below about 1.65V. A general LTC3548 application circuit is shown in Figure 2. External component selection is driven by the load requirement, and begins with the selection of the inductor L. Once the inductor is chosen, CIN and COUT can be selected. Inductor Selection Although the inductor does not influence the operat- ing frequency, the inductor value has a direct effect on ripple current. The inductor ripple current ΔIL decreases with higher inductance and increases with higher VIN or VOUT: IL = VOUT fO •L •1– VOUT VIN Accepting larger values of ΔIL allows the use of low inductances, but results in higher output voltage ripple, greater core losses, and lower output current capability. A reasonable starting point for setting ripple current is ΔIL = 0.3 • IOUT(MAX), where IOUT(MAX) is 800mA for chan- nel 1 and 400mA for channel 2. The largest ripple current ΔIL occurs at the maximum input voltage. To guarantee that the ripple current stays below a specified maximum, the inductor value should be chosen according to the following equation: L = VOUT fO • IL •1– VOUT VIN(MAX) OPERATION APPLICATIONS INFORMATION |
