Analog Devices LTC3877

Beschreibung

The LTC®3877 is a VID-programmable, constant frequencycurrent mode step-down controller using an advanced andproprietary architecture. This new architecture enhancesthe signal-to-noise ratio of the current sense signal, allowingthe use of very low DC resistance power inductorsto maximize efficiency in high current applications. Thisfeature also dramatically reduces the current sensing error,so that current sharing is greatly improved in multi-phaselow DCR applications. In addition, the controller achieves aminimum on-time of just 40ns, permitting the use of highswitching frequency at high step-down ratios.The LTC3877 features dual high speed remote sense differentialamplifiers, programmable current sense limitsand DCR temperature compensation to limit the maximumoutput current precisely over temperature. The LTC3877also features a precise 0.6V reference with guaranteedaccuracy of ±0.5%. The LTC3877 is available in a lowprofile 44-lead 7mm × 7mm QFN package.
