LTC3879IMSE#PBF

LTC3879 is a synchronous step-down switching regulator controller optimized for high switching frequency and fast transient response. The constant on-time valley current mode architecture allows for a wide input range, including very low duty factor operation. No external sense resistor or slope compensation is required. System flexibility is offered through a user-programmable soft-start pin and independent RUN pin. The voltage ramping soft-start function can be programmed with a capacitor or made to track an external reference source. Operating frequency is set by an external resistor and compensated for variations in VIN to offer excellent line stability. Discontinuous mode operation provides high efficiency during light load conditions. A forced continuous control pin allows the user to reduce noise and RF interference. It is used in application such as distributed power systems, embedded computing, communications infrastructure etc.
