The LTC1649 is a high power, high efficiency switching regulator controller optimized for use with very low supply voltages. It operates from 2.7V to 5V input, and provides a regulated output voltage from 1.26V to 2.5V at up to 20A load current. A typical 3.3V to 2.5V application features efficiency above 90% from 1A to 10A load. The LTC1649 uses a pair of standard 5V logic-level N-channel external MOSFETs, eliminating the need for expensive P-channel or super-low-threshold devices. The LTC1649 shares its internal switching architecture with the LTC1430, and features the same ±1% line, load and temperature regulation characteristics. Current limit is user-adjustable without requiring an external low-value sense resistor. The LTC1649 uses a 200kHz switching frequency and voltage mode control, minimizing external component count and size. Shutdown mode drops the quiescent current to below 10µA. The LTC1649 is available in the 16-pin narrow SO package.
