40V Low I, Triple Output, 3-Phase Synchronous Step-Down Controller

The LTC7819 is a high performance triple step-down synchronous DC/DC switching regulator controller that drives all N-channel power MOSFET stages. Constant frequency current mode architecture allows a phase-lockable switching frequency of up to 3MHz. The LTC7819 operates from a wide 4.5V to 40V input supply range. Power loss and supply noise are minimized by operating the three controller output stages out-of-phase.

The very low no-load quiescent current extends operating runtime in battery powered systems. OPTI-LOOP compensation allows the transient response to be optimized over a wide range of output capacitance and ESR values. The LTC7819 features a precision 0.8V reference and power good output indicators. The MODE pin selects among Burst Mode operation, pulse-skipping mode, or continuous inductor current mode at light loads.

The LTC7819 additionally features spread spectrum operation which significantly reduces the peak radiated and conducted noise on both the input and output supplies, making it easier to comply with electromagnetic interference (EMI) standards.
