LTC3407A-2

OPERATIO
The LTC3407A-2 uses a constant frequency, current mode
architecture. The operating frequency is set at 2.25MHz
and can be synchronized to an external oscillator. Both
channels share the same clock and run in-phase. To suit
a variety of applications, the selectable MODE/SYNC pin
allows the user to trade-off noise for efficiency.
The output voltage is set by an external divider returned to
the VFB pins. An error amplifier compares the divided
output voltage with a reference voltage of 0.6V and adjusts
the peak inductor current accordingly. Overvoltage and
undervoltage comparators will pull the POR output low if
the output voltage is not within ±8.5%. The POR output
will go high after 65,536 clock cycles (about 29ms in pulse
skipping mode) of achieving regulation.
Main Control Loop
During normal operation, the top power switch (P-channel
MOSFET) is turned on at the beginning of a clock cycle
when the VFB voltage is below the reference voltage. The
current into the inductor and the load increases until the
current limit is reached. The switch turns off and energy
stored in the inductor flows through the bottom switch (Nchannel MOSFET) into the load until the next clock cycle.
The peak inductor current is controlled by the internally
compensated ITH voltage, which is the output of the error
amplifier.This amplifier compares the VFB pin to the 0.6V
reference. When the load current increases, the VFB voltage decreases slightly below the reference. This
decrease causes the error amplifier to increase the ITH
voltage until the average inductor current matches the new
load current.
automatically switches into Burst Mode operation in which
the PMOS switch operates intermittently based on load
demand with a fixed peak inductor current. By running
cycles periodically, the switching losses which are dominated by the gate charge losses of the power MOSFETs are
minimized. The main control loop is interrupted when the
output voltage reaches the desired regulated value. A
voltage comparator trips when ITH is below 0.65V, shutting off the switch and reducing the power. The output
capacitor and the inductor supply the power to the load
until ITH exceeds 0.65V, turning on the switch and the main
control loop which starts another cycle.
For lower ripple noise at low currents, the pulse skipping
mode can be used. In this mode, the LTC3407A-2 continues to switch at a constant frequency down to very low
currents, where it will begin skipping pulses.
Dropout Operation
When the input supply voltage decreases toward the
output voltage, the duty cycle increases to 100% which is
the dropout condition. In dropout, the PMOS switch is
turned on continuously with the output voltage being
equal to the input voltage minus the voltage drops across
the internal P-channel MOSFET and the inductor.
An important design consideration is that the RDS(ON) of
the P-channel switch increases with decreasing input
supply voltage (See Typical Performance Characteristics).
Therefore, the user should calculate the power dissipation
when the LTC3407A-2 is used at 100% duty cycle with low
input voltage (See Thermal Considerations in the Applications Information Section).
The main control loop is shut down by pulling the RUN/SS
pin to ground.
Low Supply Operation
Low Current Operation
The LTC3407A-2 incorporates an undervoltage lockout
circuit which shuts down the part when the input voltage
drops below about 1.65V to prevent unstable operation.
Two modes are available to control the operation of the
LTC3407A-2 at low currents. Both modes automatically
switch from continuous operation to the selected mode
when the load current is low.
To optimize efficiency, the Burst Mode operation can be
selected. When the load is relatively light, the LTC3407A-2
A general LTC3407A-2 application circuit is shown in
Figure 1. External component selection is driven by the
load requirement, and begins with the selection of the
inductor L. Once the inductor is chosen, CIN and COUT can
be selected.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Inductor Selection
Although the inductor does not influence the operating
frequency, the inductor value has a direct effect on ripple
current. The inductor ripple current ΔIL decreases with
higher inductance and increases with higher VIN or VOUT:
ΔIL =
VOUT ⎛ VOUT ⎞
• 1–
fO • L ⎜⎝
VIN ⎟⎠
Accepting larger values of ΔIL allows the use of low
inductances, but results in higher output voltage ripple,
greater core losses, and lower output current capability.
A reasonable starting point for setting ripple current is
ΔIL = 0.3 • ILIM, where ILIM is the peak switch current limit.
The largest ripple current ΔIL occurs at the maximum
input voltage. To guarantee that the ripple current stays
below a specified maximum, the inductor value should be
chosen according to the following equation:
L=
⎞
VOUT ⎛
V
• ⎜ 1– OUT ⎟
fO • ΔIL ⎝ VIN(MAX ) ⎠
The inductor value will also have an effect on Burst Mode
operation. The transition from low current operation begins when the peak inductor current falls below a level set
by the burst clamp. Lower inductor values result in higher
ripple current which causes this transition to occur at
lower load currents. This causes a dip in efficiency in the
upper range of low current operation. In Burst Mode
operation, lower inductance values will cause the burst
frequency to increase.
Inductor Core Selection
Different core materials and shapes will change the size/
current and price/current relationship of an inductor.
Toroid or shielded pot cores in ferrite or permalloy materials are small and don’t radiate much energy, but generally cost more than powdered iron core inductors with
similar electrical characterisitics. The choice of which
style inductor to use often depends more on the price vs
size requirements and any radiated field/EMI requirements than on what the LTC3407A-2 requires to operate.
Table 1 shows some typical surface mount inductors that
work well in LTC3407A-2 applications.
Input Capacitor (CIN) Selection
In continuous mode, the input current of the converter is
a square wave with a duty cycle of approximately VOUT/
VIN. To prevent large voltage transients, a low equivalent
series resistance (ESR) input capacitor sized for the maximum RMS current must be used. The maximum RMS
capacitor current is given by:
IRMS ≈ IMAX
VOUT ( VIN – VOUT )
VIN
where the maximum average output current IMAX equals
the peak current minus half the peak-to-peak ripple current, IMAX = ILIM – ΔIL/2.
This formula has a maximum at VIN = 2VOUT, where
IRMS = IOUT/2. This simple worst-case is commonly used
to design because even significant deviations do not offer
much relief. Note that capacitor manufacturer’s ripple
current ratings are often based on only 2000 hours lifetime. This makes it advisable to further derate the capacitor, or choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature
than required. Several capacitors may also be paralleled to
meet the size or height requirements of the design. An
additional 0.1μF to 1μF ceramic capacitor is also recommended on VIN for high frequency decoupling, when not
using an all ceramic capacitor solution.

Output Capacitor (COUT) Selection
The selection of COUT is driven by the required ESR to
minimize voltage ripple and load step transients. Typically,
once the ESR requirement is satisfied, the capacitance is
adequate for filtering. The output ripple (ΔVOUT) is determined by:
⎛
⎞
1
ΔVOUT ≈ ΔIL ⎜ ESR +
8 fO COUT ⎟⎠
⎝
where fO = operating frequency, COUT = output capacitance
and ΔIL = ripple current in the inductor. The output ripple
is highest at maximum input voltage since ΔIL increases
with input voltage. With ΔIL = 0.3 • ILIM the output ripple
will be less than 100mV at maximum VIN and fO = 2.25MHz
with:
ESRCOUT < 150mΩ
Once the ESR requirements for COUT have been met, the
RMS current rating generally far exceeds the IRIPPLE(P-P)
requirement, except for an all ceramic solution.
In surface mount applications, multiple capacitors may
have to be paralleled to meet the capacitance, ESR or RMS
current handling requirement of the application. Aluminum electrolytic, special polymer, ceramic and dry tantulum
capacitors are all available in surface mount packages. The
OS-CON semiconductor dielectric capacitor available from
Sanyo has the lowest ESR(size) product of any aluminum
electrolytic at a somewhat higher price. Special polymer
capacitors, such as Sanyo POSCAP, offer very low ESR,
but have a lower capacitance density than other types.
Tantalum capacitors have the highest capacitance density.
However, they also have a larger ESR and it is critical that
they are surge tested for use in switching power supplies.
An excellent choice is the AVX TPS series of surface mount
tantalums, available in case heights ranging from 2mm to
4mm. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors have a significantly larger ESR, and are often used in extremely costsensitive applications provided that consideration is given
to ripple current ratings and long term reliability. Ceramic
capacitors have the lowest ESR and cost, but also have the
lowest capacitance density, a high voltage and temperature coefficient, and exhibit audible piezoelectric effects.
In addition, the high Q of ceramic capacitors along with
trace inductance can lead to significant ringing. Other
capacitor types include the Panasonic Special Polymer
(SP) capacitors.
In most cases, 0.1μF to 1μF of ceramic capacitors should
also be placed close to the LTC3407A-2 in parallel with the
main capacitors for high frequency decoupling.

Ceramic Input and Output Capacitors
Higher value, lower cost ceramic capacitors are now
becoming available in smaller case sizes. These are tempting for switching regulator use because of their very low
ESR. Unfortunately, the ESR is so low that it can cause
loop stability problems. Solid tantalum capacitor ESR
generates a loop “zero” at 5kHz to 50kHz that is instrumental in giving acceptable loop phase margin. Ceramic capacitors remain capacitive to beyond 300kHz and usually
resonate with their ESL before ESR becomes effective.
Also, ceramic caps are prone to temperature effects which
requires the designer to check loop stability over the
operating temperature range. To minimize their large
temperature and voltage coefficients, only X5R or X7R
ceramic capacitors should be used. A good selection of
ceramic capacitors is available from Taiyo Yuden, TDK,
and Murata.
Great care must be taken when using only ceramic input
and output capacitors. When a ceramic capacitor is used
at the input and the power is being supplied through long
wires, such as from a wall adapter, a load step at the output
can induce ringing at the VIN pin. At best, this ringing can
couple to the output and be mistaken as loop instability.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
At worst, the ringing at the input can be large enough to
damage the part.
Since the ESR of a ceramic capacitor is so low, the input
and output capacitor must instead fulfill a charge storage
requirement. During a load step, the output capacitor must
instantaneously supply the current to support the load
until the feedback loop raises the switch current enough to
support the load. The time required for the feedback loop
to respond is dependent on the compensation and the
output capacitor size. Typically, 3-4 cycles are required to
respond to a load step, but only in the first cycle does the
output drop linearly. The output droop, VDROOP, is usually
about 3 times the linear drop of the first cycle. Thus, a good
place to start is with the output capacitor size of approximately:
COUT ≈ 3
ΔIOUT
fO • VDROOP
More capacitance may be required depending on the duty
cycle and load step requirements.
In most applications, the input capacitor is merely required to supply high frequency bypassing, since the
impedance to the supply is very low. A 10μF ceramic
capacitor is usually enough for these conditions.
Setting the Output Voltage
The LTC3407A-2 develops a 0.6V reference voltage between the feedback pin, VFB, and ground as shown in
Figure 1. The output voltage is set by a resistive divider
according to the following formula:
⎛ R2 ⎞
VOUT = 0.6 V ⎜ 1+ ⎟
⎝ R1⎠
Keeping the current small (<5μA) in these resistors maximizes efficiency, but making them too small may allow
stray capacitance to cause noise problems and reduce the
phase margin of the error amp loop.
To improve the frequency response, a feed-forward capacitor CF may also be used. Great care should be taken to
route the VFB line away from noise sources, such as the
inductor or the SW line.
Power-On Reset
The POR pin is an open-drain output which pulls low when
either regulator is out of regulation. When both output
voltages are within ±8.5% of regulation, a timer is started
which releases POR after 216 clock cycles (about 29ms in
pulse skipping mode). This delay can be significantly
longer in Burst Mode operation with low load currents,
since the clock cycles only occur during a burst and there
could be milliseconds of time between bursts. This can be
bypassed by tying the POR output to the MODE/SYNC
input, to force pulse skipping mode during a reset. In
addition, if the output voltage faults during Burst Mode
sleep, POR could have a slight delay for an undervoltage
output condition and may not respond to an overvoltage
output. This can be avoided by using pulse skipping mode
instead. When either channel is shut down, the POR
output is pulled low, since one or both of the channels are
not in regulation.
Mode Selection & Frequency Synchronization
The MODE/SYNC pin is a multipurpose pin which provides
mode selection and frequency synchronization. Connecting this pin to VIN enables Burst Mode operation, which
provides the best low current efficiency at the cost of a
higher output voltage ripple. When this pin is connected to
ground, pulse skipping operation is selected which provides the lowest output ripple, at the cost of low current
efficiency.
The LTC3407A-2 can also be synchronized to another
LTC3407A-2 by the MODE/SYNC pin. During synchronization, the mode is set to pulse skipping and the top switch
turn-on is synchronized to the rising edge of the external
clock.
Checking Transient Response
The regulator loop response can be checked by looking at
the load transient response. Switching regulators take
several cycles to respond to a step in load current. When
a load step occurs, VOUT immediately shifts by an amount
equal to ΔILOAD • ESR, where ESR is the effective series
resistance of COUT. ΔILOAD also begins to charge or
discharge COUT generating a feedback error signal used by
the regulator to return VOUT to its steady-state value. During
3407a2f
10
LTC3407A-2
U
W
U
U
APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
this recovery time, VOUT can be monitored for overshoot
or ringing that would indicate a stability problem.
The initial output voltage step may not be within the
bandwidth of the feedback loop, so the standard secondorder overshoot/DC ratio cannot be used to determine
phase margin. In addition, a feed-forward capacitor can be
added to improve the high frequency response, as shown
in Figure 1. Capacitors C1 and C2 provide phase lead by
creating high frequency zeros with R2 and R4 respectively, which improve the phase margin.
The output voltage settling behavior is related to the
stability of the closed-loop system and will demonstrate
the actual overall supply performance. For a detailed
explanation of optimizing the compensation components,
including a review of control loop theory, refer to Application Note 76.
In some applications, a more severe transient can be
caused by switching in loads with large (>1μF) input
capacitors. The discharged input capacitors are effectively
put in parallel with COUT, causing a rapid drop in VOUT. No
regulator can deliver enough current to prevent this problem, if the switch connecting the load has low resistance
and is driven quickly. The solution is to limit the turn-on
speed of the load switch driver. A Hot SwapTM controller is
designed specifically for this purpose and usually incorporates current limiting, short-circuit protection, and softstarting.
Soft-Start
The RUN/SS pins provide a means to separately run or
shut down the two regulators. In addition, they can optionally be used to externally control the rate at which each
regulator starts up and shuts down. Pulling the RUN/SS1
pin below 1V shuts down regulator 1 on the LTC3407A-2.
Forcing this pin to VIN enables regulator 1. In order to
control the rate at which each regulator turns on and off,
connect a resistor and capacitor to the RUN/SS pins as
shown in Figure 1. The soft-start duration can be calculated by using the following formula:
⎛ V −1 ⎞
(s)
t SS = RSSCSSIn ⎜ IN
⎝ VIN − 1.6 ⎟⎠
For approximately a 1ms ramp time, use RSS = 4.7MΩ and
CSS = 680pF at VIN = 3.3V.
Efficiency Considerations
The percent efficiency of a switching regulator is equal to
the output power divided by the input power times 100%.
It is often useful to analyze individual losses to determine
what is limiting the efficiency and which change would
produce the most improvement. Percent efficiency can be
expressed as:
%Efficiency = 100% - (L1 + L2 + L3 + ...)
where L1, L2, etc. are the individual losses as a percentage
of input power.
Although all dissipative elements in the circuit produce
losses, 4 main sources usually account for most of the
losses in LTC3407A-2 circuits: 1)VIN quiescent current, 2)
switching losses, 3) I2R losses, 4) other losses.
1) The VIN current is the DC supply current given in the
Electrical Characteristics which excludes MOSFET driver
and control currents. VIN current results in a small (<0.1%)
loss that increases with VIN, even at no load.
2) The switching current is the sum of the MOSFET driver
and control currents. The MOSFET driver current results
from switching the gate capacitance of the power MOSFETs.
Each time a MOSFET gate is switched from low to high to
low again, a packet of charge dQ moves from VIN to
ground. The resulting dQ/dt is a current out of VIN that is
typically much larger than the DC bias current. In continuous mode, IGATECHG = fO(QT + QB), where QT and QB are the
gate charges of the internal top and bottom MOSFET
switches. The gate charge losses are proportional to VIN
and thus their effects will be more pronounced at higher
supply voltages.
3) I2R losses are calculated from the DC resistances of the
internal switches, RSW, and external inductor, RL. In
continuous mode, the average output current flows through
inductor L, but is “chopped” between the internal top and
bottom switches. Thus, the series resistance looking into
Hot Swap is a registered trademark of Linear Technology Corporation.

the SW pin is a function of both top and bottom MOSFET
RDS(ON) and the duty cycle (D) as follows:
RSW = (RDS(ON)TOP)(D) + (RDS(ON)BOT)(1 – D)
The RDS(ON) for both the top and bottom MOSFETs can be
obtained from the Typical Performance Characteristics
curves. Thus, to obtain I2R losses:
I2R losses = IOUT2(RSW + RL)
4) Other ‘hidden’ losses such as copper trace and internal
battery resistances can account for additional efficiency
degradations in portable systems. It is very important to
include these “system” level losses in the design of a
system. The internal battery and fuse resistance losses
can be minimized by making sure that CIN has adequate
charge storage and very low ESR at the switching frequency. Other losses including diode conduction losses
during dead-time and inductor core losses generally account for less than 2% total additional loss.
Thermal Considerations
In a majority of applications, the LTC3407A-2 does not
dissipate much heat due to its high efficiency. However, in
applications where the LTC3407A-2 is running at high
ambient temperature with low supply voltage and high
duty cycles, such as in dropout, the heat dissipated may
exceed the maximum junction temperature of the part. If
the junction temperature reaches approximately 150°C,
both power switches will be turned off and the SW node
will become high impedance.
To prevent the LTC3407A-2 from exceeding the maximum
junction temperature, the user will need to do some
thermal analysis. The goal of the thermal analysis is to
determine whether the power dissipated exceeds the
maximum junction temperature of the part. The temperature rise is given by:
TRISE = PD • θJA
where PD is the power dissipated by the regulator and θJA
is the thermal resistance from the junction of the die to the
ambient temperature.
The junction temperature, TJ, is given by:
TJ = TRISE + TAMBIENT
As an example, consider the case when the LTC3407A-2
is in dropout on both channels at an input voltage of 2.7V
with a load current of 800mA and an ambient temperature
of 70°C. From the Typical Performance Characteristics
graph of Switch Resistance, the RDS(ON) resistance of the
main switch is 0.425Ω. Therefore, power dissipated by
each channel is:
PD = I2 • RDS(ON) = 272mW
The MS package junction-to-ambient thermal resistance,
θJA, is 45°C/W. Therefore, the junction temperature of the
regulator operating in a 70°C ambient temperature is
approximately:
TJ = 2 • 0.272 • 45 + 70 = 94.5°C
which is below the absolute maximum junction temperature of 125°C.
Design Example
As a design example, consider using the LTC3407A-2 in a
portable application with a Li-Ion battery. The battery
provides a VIN = 2.8V to 4.2V. The load requires a maximum of 800mA in active mode and 2mA in standby mode.
The output voltage is VOUT = 2.5V. Since the load still
needs power in standby, Burst Mode operation is selected
for good low load efficiency.
First, calculate the inductor value for about 30% ripple
current at maximum VIN:
L=
2.5V
⎛ 2.5V ⎞
• ⎜ 1–

Choosing the next highest standardized inductor value of
2.2μH, results in a maximum ripple current of:
ΔIL =
2.5V
⎛ 2.5V ⎞
• ⎜ 1−
= 204mA
2.25MHz • 2.2μH ⎝ 4.2V ⎟⎠
For cost reasons, a ceramic capacitor will be used. COUT
selection is then based on load step droop instead of ESR
requirements. For a 5% output droop:
COUT ≈ 2.5
800mA
= 7.1μF
2.25MHz • (5% • 2.5V)
The closest standard value is 10μF. Since the output
impedance of a Li-Ion battery is very low, CIN is typically
10μF.
The output voltage can now be programmed by choosing
the values of R1 and R2. To maintain high efficiency, the
current in these resistors should be kept small. Choosing
2μA with the 0.6V feedback voltage makes R1~300k. A
close standard 1% resistor is 280k, and R2 is then 887k.
The POR pin is a common drain output and requires a pullup resistor. A 100k resistor is used for adequate speed.
Figure 3 shows the complete schematic for this design
example. The specific passive components chosen allow
for a 1mm height power supply that maintains a high
efficiency across load.
Board Layout Considerations
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
checklist should be used to ensure proper operation of the
LTC3407A-2. These items are also illustrated graphically
in the layout diagram of Figure 2. Check the following in
your layout:
1. Does the capacitor CIN connect to the power VIN (Pin 3)
and GND (exposed pad) as closely as possible? This
capacitor provides the AC current to the internal power
MOSFETs and their drivers.
2. Are COUT and L1 closely connected? The (–) plate of
COUT returns current to GND and the (–) plate of CIN.
3. The resistor divider formed by R1 and R2 must be
connected between the (+) plate of COUT and a ground
sense line terminated near GND (exposed pad). The feedback signals VFB1 and VFB2 should be routed away from
noisy components and traces, such as the SW lines (Pins
4 and 7), and their traces should be minimized.
4. Keep sensitive components away from the SW pins. The
input capacitor CIN and the resistors R1 to R4 should be
routed away from the SW traces and the inductors.
5. A ground plane is preferred, but if not available keep the
signal and power grounds segregated with small signal
components returning to the GND pin at one point.
Addtionally the two grounds should not share the high
current paths of CIN or COUT.
6. Flood all unused areas on all layers with copper.
Flooding with copper will reduce the temperature rise of
power components. These copper areas should be connected to VIN or GND.
