Description
The LTC®3815 is a high efficiency, 6A monolithic synchronous buck regulator using a phase lockable controlled on-time, current mode architecture. The output voltage is programmable from 0.4V to 72% of VIN with a single external resistor or an external voltage reference through the reference input (REF) pin. The output voltage can be margined up or down up to ±25% with 0.1% resolution via a PM Bus-compliant serial interface. The serial interface can also be used to read back fault status and both time averaged (~4ms) and peak input/output current, input/ output voltage and temperature. System configuration and monitoring is supported by the LT power Play® development system.
The architecture provides extremely fast transient response and allows operation at the very low on-times required to regulate low output voltages at high switching frequencies.
