Typical Application

Description

The LT®8607 is a compact, high efficiency, high speed synchronous monolithic step-down switching regulator that consumes only 1.7μA of non-switching quiescent current. The LT8607 can deliver 750mA of continuous current. Top and bottom power switches are included with all necessary circuitry to minimize the need for external components. Low ripple Burst Mode operation enables high efficiency down to very low output currents while keeping the output ripple below 10mV_P-P. Internal compensation with peak current mode topology allows the use of small inductors and results in fast transient response and good loop stability. The EN/UV pin has an accurate 1V threshold and can be used to program VIN undervoltage lockout or to shut down the LT8607 reducing the input supply current to 1μA. The PG pin signals when V_OUT is within ±8.5% of the programmed output voltage as well as fault conditions.

The LT8607 in the 10-lead MSOP allows selection of low I_Q Burst Mode operation, pulse skip or spread spectrum operation for low EMI, and can be synchronized to an external clock. The 8-lead 2mm × 2mm DFN package operates in Burst Mode operation. The MSOP has programmable soft-start and tracking.
