Constant Frequency Current Mode Step-Down DC/DC Controller in SOT-23

The LTC1772B is a constant frequency current mode step-down DC/DC controller providing excellent AC and DC load and line regulation. The device incorporates an accurate undervoltage lockout feature that shuts down the LTC1772B when the input voltage falls below 2.0V.

The LTC1772B provides a ±2.5% output voltage accuracy and consumes only 270µA of quiescent current. In shutdown, the device draws a mere 8µA.

To further maximize the life of a battery source, the external P-channel MOSFET is turned on continuously in dropout (100% duty cycle). High constant operating frequency of 550kHz allows the use of a small external inductor.

The LTC1772B is available in a small footprint 6-lead SOT-23.

For a Burst Mode operation enabled version of the LTC1772B, please refer to the LTC1772 data sheet.
