The LT®1618 step-up DC/DC converter combines a traditional voltage feedback loop and a unique current feedback
loop to operate as a constant-current, constant-voltage
source. This fixed frequency, current mode switcher operates from a wide input voltage range of 1.6V to 18V, and
the high switching frequency of 1.4MHz permits the use of
tiny, low profile inductors and capacitors. The current
sense voltage is set at 50mV and can be adjusted using the
IADJ pin.

OPERATIO
The LT1618 uses a constant frequency, current mode
control scheme to provide excellent line and load regulation. Operation can be best understood by referring to the
Block Diagram in Figure 1. At the start of each oscillator
cycle, the SR latch is set, turning on power switch Q1. The
signal at the noninverting input of PWM comparator A3 is
a scaled-down version of the switch current (summed
together with a portion of the oscillator ramp). When this
signal reaches the level set by the output of error amplifier
A2, comparator A3 resets the latch and turns off the power
switch. In this manner, A2 sets the correct peak current
level to keep the output in regulation. If the error amplifier’s
output increases, more current is delivered to the output;
if it decreases, less current is delivered. A2 has two
inverting inputs, one from the voltage feedback loop, and
one from the current feedback loop. Whichever inverting
input is higher takes precedence, forcing the converter
into either a constant-current or a constant-voltage mode.
The LT1618 is designed to transition cleanly between the
two modes of operation. Current sense amplifier A1 senses
the voltage between the ISP and ISN pins and provides a
25× level-shifted version to error amplifier A2. When the
voltage between ISP and ISN reaches 50mV, the output of
A1 provides 1.263V to one of the noninverting inputs of A2
and the converter is in constant-current mode. If the
current sense voltage exceeds 50mV, the output of A1 will
increase causing the output of A2 to decrease, thus
reducing the amount of current delivered to the output. In
this manner the current sense voltage is regulated to
50mV. Similarly, if the FB pin increases above 1.263V, the
output of A2 will decrease to reduce the peak current level
and regulate the output (constant-voltage mode).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Inductor Selection
Several inductors that work well with the LT1618 are listed
in Table 1, although there are many other manufacturers
and devices that can be used. Consult each manufacturer
for more detailed information and for their entire selection
of related parts. Many different sizes and shapes are
available. Ferrite core inductors should be used to obtain
the best efficiency, as core losses at 1.4MHz are much
lower for ferrite cores than for the cheaper powdered-iron
ones. Choose an inductor that can handle the necessary
peak current without saturating, and ensure that the
inductor has a low DCR (copper-wire resistance) to minimize I2R power losses. A 4.7µH or 10µH inductor will be
a good choice for many LT1618 designs.

Capacitor Selection
Low ESR (equivalent series resistance) capacitors should
be used at the output to minimize the output ripple voltage.
Multilayer ceramic capacitors are an excellent choice.
They have an extremely low ESR and are available in very
small packages. X5R and X7R dielectrics are preferred, as
these materials retain their capacitance over wider voltage
and temperature ranges than other dielectrics. A 4.7µF to
10µF output capacitor is sufficient for high output current
designs. Converters with lower output currents may need
only a 1µF or 2.2µF output capacitor. Solid tantalum or
OSCON capacitors can be used, but they will occupy more
board area than a ceramic and will have a higher ESR
6
forthe same footprint device. Always use a capacitor with
a sufficient voltage rating.
Ceramic capacitors also make a good choice for the input
decoupling capacitor, which should be placed as close as
possible to the VIN pin of the LT1618. A 1µF to 4.7µF input
capacitor is sufficient for most applications. Table 2 shows
a list of several ceramic capacitor manufacturers. Consult
the manufacturers for detailed information on their entire
selection of ceramic parts.

Diode Selection
Schottky diodes, with their low forward voltage drop and
fast switching speed, are the ideal choice for LT1618
applications. Table 3 shows several Schottky diodes that
work well with the LT1618. Many different manufacturers
make equivalent parts, but make sure that the component
chosen has a sufficient current rating and a voltage rating
greater than the output voltage. The diode conducts current only when the power switch is turned off (typically
less than half the time), so a 0.5A or 1A diode will be
sufficient for most designs. The companies below also
offer Schottky diodes with higher voltage and current
ratings.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Setting Output Voltage
To set the output voltage, select the values of R1 and R2
(see Figure 1) according to the following equation.
V

R1 = R2  OUT – 1
 1.263 
For current source applications, use the FB pin for overvoltage protection. Pick R1 and R2 so that the output
voltage will not go too high if the load is disconnected or
if the load current drops below the preset value. Typically
choose R1 and R2 so that the overvoltage value will be
about 20% to 30% higher than the normal output voltage
(when in constant-current mode). This prevents the voltage loop from interfering with the current loop in current
source applications. For battery charger applications, pick
the values of R1 and R2 to give the desired end of charge
voltage.
the output of the error amplifier (the VC pin) will be pulled
down and the LT1618 will stop switching.
A pulse width modulated (PWM) signal can also be used
to adjust the current sense voltage; simply add an RC
filterto convert the PWM signal into a DC voltage for the
IADJ pin. If the IADJ pin is not used, it should be tied to
ground. Do not leave the pin floating.
For applications needing only a simple one-step current
sense adjustment, the circuit in Figure 2 works well. If a
large value resistor (≥2MΩ) is placed between the IADJ pin
and ground, the current sense voltage will reduce to about
25mV, providing a 50% reduction in current. Do not leave
the IADJ pin open. This method gives a well-regulated
current value in both states, and is controlled by a logic
signal without the need for a variable PWM or DC control
signal. When the NMOS transistor is on, the current sense
voltage will be 50mV, when it is off, the current sense
voltage will be reduced to 25mV.
Selecting RSENSE/Current Sense Adjustment
LT1618
Use the following formula to choose the correct current
sense resistor value (for constant current operation).
RSENSE = 50mV/IMAX
For designs needing an adjustable current level, the IADJ
pin is provided. With the IADJ pin tied to ground, the
nominal current sense voltage is 50mV (appearing between the ISP and ISN pins). Applying a positive DC
voltage to the IADJ pin will decrease the current sense
voltage according to the following formula:
VISENSE =
1.263V – (0.8)VIADJ
25
For example, if 1V is applied to the IADJ pin, the current
sense voltage will be reduced to about 18mV. This
adjustability allows the regulated current to be reduced
without changing the current sense resistor (e.g. to adjust
brightness in an LED driver or to reduce the charge current
in a battery charger). If the IADJ pin is taken above 1.6V,

Considerations When Sensing Input Current
In addition to regulating the DC output current for currentsource applications, the constant-current loop of the
LT1618 can also be used to provide an accurate input
current limit. Boost converters cannot provide output
short-circuit protection, but the surge turn-on current can
be drastically reduced using the LT1618’s current sense
at the input. SEPICs, however, have an output that is DCisolated from the input, so an input current limit not only
helps soft-start the output but also provides excellent
short-circuit protection.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
When sensing input current, the sense resistor should be
placed in front of the inductor (between the decoupling
capacitor and the inductor) as shown in the circuits in the
Typical Applications section. This will regulate the average
inductor current and maintain a consistent inductor ripple
current, which will, in turn, maintain a well regulated input
current. Do not place the sense resistor between the input
source and the input decoupling capacitor, as this may
allow the inductor ripple current to vary widely (even
though the average input current and the average inductor
current will still be regulated). Since the inductor current
is a triangular waveform (not a DC waveform like the
output current) some tweaking of the compensation
values (RC and CC on the VC pin) may be required to ensure
a clean inductor ripple current while the constant-current
loop is in effect. For these applications, the constantcurrent loop response can usually be improved by reducing the RC value, or by adding a capacitor (with a value of
approximately CC /10) in parallel with the RC and CC
compensation network.
Frequency Compensation
The LT1618 has an external compensation pin (VC), which
allows the loop response to be optimized for each application. An external resistor and capacitor (or sometimes just
a capacitor) are placed at the VC pin to provide a pole and
a zero (or just a pole) to ensure proper loop compensation.
Numerous other poles and zeroes are present in the closed
L1
loop transfer function of a switching regulator, so the VC
pin pole and zero are positioned to provide the best loop
response. A thorough analysis of the switching regulator
control loop is not within the scope of this data sheet, and
will not be presented here, but values of 2kΩ and 10nF will
be a good choice for many designs. For those wishing to
optimize the compensation, use the 2kΩ and 10nF as a
starting point. For LED backlight applications where a
pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal is used to drive
the IADJ pin, the resistor is usually not included in the
compensation network. This helps to provide additional
filtering of the PWM signal at the output of the error
amplifier (the VC pin).
Switch Node Considerations
To maximize efficiency, switch rise and fall times are made
as short as possible. To prevent radiation and high frequency resonance problems, proper layout of the
highfrequency switching path is essential. Keep the output
switch (SW pin), diode and output capacitor as close
together as possible. Minimize the length and area of all
traces connected to the switch pin, and always use a
ground plane under the switching regulator to minimize
interplane coupling. The high speed switching current
path is shown in Figure 3. The signal path including the
switch, output diode and output capacitor contains nanosecond rise and fall times and should be kept as short as
possible.
