750 mA Synchronous Step-Down DC/DC Converter Delivers 93% Efficiency at 2 MHz

June 22, 2017

Analog Devices, Inc.最近获得的Linear Technology Corporation, announces the LT8607, a 750 mA, 42 V input synchronous step-down switching regulator. A unique synchronous rectification topology delivers 93 percent efficiency while switching at 2 MHz, enabling designers to avoid critical noise-sensitive frequency bands, such as AM radio while using a very compact solution footprint.

突发模态®operation keeps quiescent current under 3 µA in no-load standby conditions, ideal for always-on systems. The device’s 3 to 42 V input voltage range is well suited for automotive applications that must regulate through cold-crank and stop-start scenarios with minimum input voltages as low as 3 V and load dump transients in excess of 40 V. Its internal 1.2 A switches deliver up to 750 mA of continuous output current. The LT8607 maintains a minimum dropout voltage of only 250 mV (at 500 mA) under all conditions, enabling it to excel in scenarios such as automotive cold-crank. Spread spectrum frequency modulation and special design techniques ensure low EMI operation, enabling it to meet CISPR25, Class 5 EMI limits required by many automotive and industrial applications. Furthermore, a fast minimum on-time of only 45 ns enables 2 MHz constant frequency switching from a 16 V input to a 1.5 V output. The LT8607’s 8-lead thermally enhanced 2 mm x 2 mm DFN or 10-lead MSOP package and high switching frequency, which keeps the external inductor and capacitors small, provide a compact, thermally efficient footprint.

The LT8607 utilizes internal top and bottom high efficiency power switches with the necessary boost diode, oscillator, control and logic circuitry integrated into a single die. Low ripple Burst Mode operation maintains high efficiency at low output currents while keeping output ripple below 10 mVP-P. Unique design techniques and a new high speed process enable high efficiency over a wide input voltage range, and the LT8607’s current mode topology enables fast transient response and excellent loop stability. Other features include internal compensation, a power good flag, output soft-start/tracking and thermal protection.

The LT8607EDC is offered in a 2 mm x 2 mm 8-lead DFN package, whereas the LT8607EMSE is in a thermally enhanced MSOP-10 package. Industrial temperature versions, the LT8607IDC and LT8607IMSE, are tested and guaranteed to operate from a –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature. Pricing starts at $2.15 each in 1000-piece quantities and all versions are available from stock. For more information, visitwww.linear.com/product/LT8607.
