Analog Devices LTC7852-1

Description

The LTC®7852/LTC7852-1 is a six-phase, dual outputcurrent mode synchronous step-down switching regulatorcontroller that works in conjunction with externalpower train devices such as DrMOS, power blocks ordiscrete N-channel MOSFETs and associated gate drivers.Its flexible design enables 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, and 6-phaseconfigurations. The LTC7852 offers a unique feature thatenhances the signal-to-noise ratio of the current sensesignal, allowing the use of inductors with very low DCwinding resistances for maximum efficiency. The controllerachieves a minimum on-time of just 40ns, permitting theuse of high switching frequency at high step-down ratios.8-, 10- or 12 phases with two ICs can be paralleled forvery high current requirements up to 400A.
