The MT3998 is a fully integrated high efficiency synchronous step-down converter which requires a minimum number of external components. It offers a very compact solution with 8A continuous output current over a wide input range. The MT3998 employs proprietary Constant On-Time (COT) control scheme providing superior transient response and maintaining constant switching frequency in the continuous conduction mode operation. The external ramp compensation network allows stable operation with ultra-low equivalent series resistance (ESR) output ceramic capacitors. An error amplifier in the control loop provides excellent line and load regulation.
