LTC1877 Datasheet PDF

●The LTC1877EMS8#PBF is a high efficiency monolithic synchronous Step-down Regulator uses a constant-frequency, current mode architecture. Supply current during operation is only 10µA and drops to <1µA in shutdown. The 2.65 to 10V input voltage range makes it ideally suited for both single and dual Li-ion battery-powered applications. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation, extending battery life in portable systems. Switching frequency is internally set at 550kHz, allowing the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors. For noise sensitive applications the LTC1877 can be externally synchronized from 400 to 700kHz. Burst Mode® operation is inhibited during synchronization or when the SYNC/MODE pin is pulled low, preventing low frequency ripple from interfering with audio circuitry. The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. Low output voltages are easily supported with 0.8V feedback reference voltage.
