Capable of supplying 50mA of load current, the LTC3388-1/ LTC3388-3 also incorporate an accurate undervoltage lockout (UVLO) feature to disable the converter and maintain a low quiescent current state when the input voltage falls below 2.3V. In regulation, the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 enter a sleep state in which both input and output quiescent currents are minimal. The buck converter turns on and off as needed to maintain regulation. An additional standby mode disables buck switching while the output is in regulation for short duration loads requiring low ripple. Output voltages of 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V (LTC3388-1) and 2.8V, 3.0V, 3.3V, 5.0V (LTC3388-3) are pin selectable. The LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 can operate with VIN up to 20V while the no load quiescent current remains below 1μA.

Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime. Note 2: The LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 are tested under pulsed load conditions such that TJ ≈ TA. The LTC3388E-1/LTC3388E-3 are guaranteed to meet specifications from 0°C to 85°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The LTC3388I-1/LTC3388I-3 are guaranteed over the –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range. Note that the maximum ambient temperature consistent with these specifications is determined by specific operating conditions in conjunction with board layout, the rated package thermal impedance and other environmental factors. Note 3: The junction temperature (TJ, in °C) is calculated from the ambient temperature (TA, in °C) and power dissipation (PD, in Watts) according to the formula: TJ = TA + (PD • θJA), where θJA (in °C/W) is the package thermal impedance. Note 4: Dynamic supply current is higher due to gate charge being delivered at the switching frequency.

Logic level input referenced to VIN2. A logic high on EN will enable the buck converter. Driving EN to VIN2 will result in no additional quiescent current on VIN. However, if EN is driven near VIH or VIL 40nA of additional quiescent current can appear on VIN. STBY (Pin 2): Standby Input. Logic level input referenced to VIN2. A logic high on STBY will place the part in standby mode. Driving STBY to VIN2 will result in no additional quiescent current on VIN. However, if STBY is driven near VIH or VIL 40nA of additional quiescent current can appear on VIN. CAP (Pin 3): Internal rail referenced to VIN to serve as gate drive for buck PMOS switch. A 1μF capacitor should be connected between CAP and VIN. This pin is not intended for use as an external system rail. VIN (Pin 4): Input Voltage. A 2.2μF or larger capacitor should be connected from VIN to GND. SW (Pin 5): Switch Pin for the Buck Switching Regulator. A 22μH or larger inductor should be connected from SW to VOUT. VOUT (Pin 6): Sense pin used to monitor the output voltage and adjust it through internal feedback. VIN2 (Pin 7): Internal low voltage rail to serve as gate drive for buck NMOS switch. Also serves as a logic high rail for output voltage select bits D0 and D1. A 4.7μF capacitor should be connected from VIN2 to GND. This pin is not intended for use as an external system rail. D1 (Pin 8): Output Voltage Select Bit. D1 should be tied high to VIN2 or low to GND to select desired VOUT (see Table 1). D0 (Pin 9): Output Voltage Select Bit. D0 should be tied high to VIN2 or low to GND to select desired VOUT (see Table 1). PGOOD (Pin 10): Power Good Open-Drain NMOS Output. The PGOOD pin is Hi-Z when VOUT is above 92% of the target value. GND (Exposed Pad Pin 11): Ground. The exposed pad should be connected to a continuous ground plane on the second layer of the printed circuit board by several vias directly under the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3. 338813f 9 LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 BLOCK DIAGRAM VIN 4 INTERNAL RAIL GENERATION VIN2 40nA 3 CAP 5 SW 7 VIN2 UVLO EN 1 VIN2 BUCK CONTROL 40nA 11 GND STBY 2 SLEEP 6 BANDGAP REFERENCE 8, 9 D1, D0 VOUT 10 PGOOD 2 REF – PGOOD + 338813 BD 338813f 10 LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 OPERATION The LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 is an ultralow quiescent current power supply designed to maintain a regulated output voltage by means of a nanopower high efficiency synchronous buck regulator. Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) When the voltage on VIN rises above the UVLO rising threshold the buck converter is enabled and charge is transferred from the input capacitor to the output capacitor. If VIN falls below the UVLO falling threshold the part will re-enter UVLO. In UVLO the quiescent current is approximately 400nA and the buck converter is disabled. Internal Rail Generation Two internal rails, CAP and VIN2, are generated from VIN and are used to drive the high side PMOS and low side NMOS of the buck converter, respectively. Additionally the VIN2 rail serves as logic high for EN, STBY, and output voltage select bits D0 and D1. The VIN2 rail is regulated at 4.6V above GND while the CAP rail is regulated at 4.8V below VIN. The VIN2 and CAP rails are not intended to be used as external rails. Bypass capacitors are connected to the CAP and VIN2 pins to serve as energy reservoirs for driving the buck switches. When VIN is below 4.6V, VIN2 is equal to VIN. CAP is at GND until VIN rises above 4.8V. Figure 1 shows the ideal VIN, VIN2 and CAP relationship. 18 16 VOLTAGE (V) 14 VIN 12 10 8 6 VIN2 4 2 CAP 0 0 5 10 VIN (V) 15 338813 F01 Figure 1. Ideal VIN, VIN2 and CAP Relationship Buck Operation The buck regulator uses a hysteretic voltage algorithm to control the output through internal feedback from the VOUT sense pin. The buck converter charges an output capacitor through an inductor to a value slightly higher than the regulation point. It does this by ramping the inductor current up to 150mA through an internal PMOS switch and then ramping it down to 0mA through an internal NMOS switch. This efficiently delivers energy to the output capacitor. The ramp rate is determined by VIN, VOUT, and the inductor value. When the buck brings the output voltage into regulation the converter enters a low quiescent current sleep state that monitors the output voltage with a sleep comparator. During this operating mode load current is provided by the buck output capacitor. When the output voltage falls below the regulation point the buck regulator wakes up and the cycle repeats. This hysteretic method of providing a regulated output reduces losses associated with FET switching and maintains an output at light loads. The buck delivers a minimum of 50mA of average load current when it is switching. When the sleep comparator signals that the output has reached the sleep threshold the buck converter may be in the middle of a cycle with current still flowing through the inductor. Normally both synchronous switches would turn off and the current in the inductor would freewheel to zero through the NMOS body diode. The LTC3388-1/ LTC3388-3 keeps the NMOS switch on during this time to prevent the conduction loss that would occur in the diode if the NMOS were off. If the PMOS is on when the sleep comparator trips, the NMOS will turn on immediately in order to ramp down the current. If the NMOS is on it will be kept on until the current reaches zero. Though the quiescent current when the buck is switching is much greater than the sleep quiescent current, it is still a small percentage of the average inductor current which results in high efficiency over most load conditions. The buck operates only when the output voltage discharges to the sleep falling threshold. Thus, the buck operating quiescent current is averaged with the low sleep quiescent current. This allows the converter to remain very efficient at loads as low as 10μA. 338813f 11 LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 OPERATION Four selectable voltages are available by tying the output select bits, D0 and D1, to GND or VIN2. Table 1 shows the four D0/D1 codes and their corresponding output voltages as well as the difference in output voltages between the LTC3388-1 and LTC3388-3. Table 1. LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 Output Voltage Selection D1 D0 VOUT VOUT Quiescent Current (I VOUT) 0 0 1.2V/2.8V 28nA/66nA 0 1 1.5V/3.0V 36nA/72nA 1 0 1.8V/3.3V 43nA/78nA 1 1 2.5V/5.0V 60nA/120nA The internal feedback network draws a small amount of current from VOUT as listed in Table 1. Dropout Operation When the input supply voltage decreases towards the output voltage, the rate of change of inductor current decreases, reducing the switching frequency of the current bursts. Further reduction in input supply voltage will eventually cause the PMOS to be turned on 100%, i.e., DC. The output voltage will then be determined by the input voltage minus the voltage drop across the PMOS and the inductor. Power Good Comparator A power good comparator causes the PGOOD pin to go Hi-Z the first time the converter reaches the sleep threshold of the programmed VOUT, signaling that the 3.5 output is in regulation. The PGOOD pin will remain Hi-Z until VOUT falls to 92% of the desired regulation voltage. Additionally, if PGOOD is high and VIN falls below the UVLO falling threshold, PGOOD will remain high until VOUT falls to 92% of the desired regulation point. This allows output energy to be used even if the input is lost. Figure 2 shows the behavior for VOUT = 1.8V and a 10μA load. At t = 2s VIN becomes high impedance and is discharged by the quiescent current of the LTC3388-1 and through servicing VOUT. VIN crosses UVLO falling but PGOOD remains high until VOUT decreases to 92% of the desired regulation point. This scenario is likely for cases in which the selected output voltage is below the UVLO falling threshold. If the input becomes high impedance and begins to fall it will be supported by the output through the body diode of the PMOS switch. For a high enough output voltage the part will not necessarily enter UVLO while VOUT remains PGOOD. This is always true for the output voltages available on the LTC3388-3. The D0/D1 inputs can be switched while in regulation as shown in Figure 3. If VOUT is programmed to a voltage with a PGOOD falling threshold above the old VOUT, PGOOD will transition low until the new regulation point is reached. When VOUT is programmed to a lower voltage, PGOOD will remain high through the transition. The PGOOD pin is designed to drive a microprocessor or other chip I/O and is not intended to drive higher current loads such as an LED. 6 CIN = 22μF, COUT = 100μF, ILOAD = 10μA 3.0 COUT = 100μF, ILOAD = 50mA D1=D0=0 D1=D0=1 D1=D0=0 5 VIN = UVLO FALLING VIN VOUT VOLTAGE (V) VOLTAGE (V) 2.5 2.0 1.5 VOUT 4 VOUT 3 2 1.0 PGOOD = LOGIC 1 1 0.5 PGOOD 0 0 0 2 4 6 TIME (sec) 8 10 338813 F02 Figure 2.

PGOOD Operation During D0/D1 Transition 338813f 12 LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 OPERATION Enable and Standby Modes Two logic pins, EN and STBY, determine the operating mode of the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3. When EN is high and STBY is low the synchronous buck converter is enabled and will regulate the output if the input voltage is above the programmed output voltage and above the UVLO threshold. If EN is low the buck converter circuitry is powered down to save quiescent current. The internal rail generation circuits are kept alive and the voltages at VIN2 and CAP are maintained. When low, EN also shuts down the PGOOD circuitry and pulls the PGOOD pin low. If EN is high and the input falls below the UVLO threshold, the buck converter is shut down. While enabled, the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 can be placed in standby mode by bringing STBY high. In standby mode the buck converter is disabled, eliminating the quiescent current used to run the buck circuitry. The PGOOD and sleep comparators are kept alive to maintain the state of the PGOOD pin. The sleep comparator has lower quiescent current than the PGOOD comparator and when the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 is in sleep mode the PGOOD comparator is shut down and PGOOD is held high. The same occurs in standby mode. If the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 was in sleep before entering standby it will stay in sleep in standby, saving the quiescent current of the PGOOD comparator. If VOUT falls below the sleep falling threshold the PGOOD comparator will be enabled. If VOUT falls below the PGOOD falling threshold the PGOOD pin will be pulled low. If STBY is driven high with EN low it will be ignored and the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 will remain shut down. If EN and STBY are driven high but near VIH or low but near VIL, additional quiescent current may appear on VIN. This additional quiescent current is typically 40nA and depends on VIN and temperature. Driving EN or STBY to 0V or VIN2 will prevent additional quiescent current on VIN. Figure 4 shows VOUT during a transition into and out of standby. While in standby, the buck is off and VOUT is quiet.

External components are selected based on the performance requirements of the application. Input Capacitor Selection The input capacitor at VIN should be selected to adequately bypass the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 and filter the switching current presented by the buck regulator. The VIN capacitor should be rated to withstand the highest voltage ever present at VIN. It should be placed as close as possible to the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 to force the high frequency switching current into a tight local loop to minimize EMI. A 2.2μF ceramic X7R or X5R capacitor should be adequate for bypassing. High ripple current, high voltage rating, and low ESR make ceramic capacitors ideal for switching regulator applications. However, care must be taken when these capacitors are used at the input and output. When a ceramic capacitor is used at the input and the power is supplied by a wall adapter through long wires, a load step at the output can induce ringing at the input, VIN. A sudden inrush of current through the long wires can potentially cause a voltage spike at VIN large enough to damage the part. For such applications with inductive source impedance, such as a long wire, a series RC network may be required in parallel with CIN to dampen the ringing of the input supply. Figure 5 shows this circuit and the typical values required to dampen the ringing. The RC resistor may be replaced by a single electrolytic capacitor that has an ESR equivalent to the needed series resistance of the network. See Application Note 88 for a complete discussion of this phenomenon. Output Capacitor Selection The duration for which the regulator sleeps depends on the load current and the size of the output capacitor. The sleep time decreases as the load current increases and/or as the output capacitor decreases. The DC sleep hysteresis window, VHYST, is ±8mV and ±16mV around the programmed output voltage on the LTC3388-1 and LTC3388-3 respectively. Ideally this means that the sleep time is determined by the following equation: V t SLEEP = COUT HYST ILOAD This is true for output capacitors on the order of 100μF or larger, but as the output capacitor decreases towards 10μF delays in the internal sleep comparator along with the load current may result in the VOUT voltage slewing past the ±8mV/±16mV thresholds. This will lengthen the sleep time and increase VOUT ripple. A capacitor less than 10μF is not recommended as VOUT ripple could increase to an undesirable level.

Series RC to Reduce VIN Ringing 338813f 14 LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION If transient load currents above 50mA are required then a larger capacitor can be used at the output. This capacitor will be continuously discharged during a load condition and the capacitor can be sized for an acceptable drop in VOUT: ILOAD −IBUCK COUT = VOUT + – VOUT – t LOAD ( current rating greater than 200mA. The DCR of the inductor can have an impact on efficiency as it is a source of loss. Trade-offs between price, size, and DCR should be evaluated. Table 2 lists several inductors that work well with the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3. ) Table 2. Recommended Inductors for LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 Here VOUT+ is the value of VOUT when PGOOD goes high and VOUT– is the desired lower limit of VOUT. IBUCK is the average current being delivered from the buck converter, typically IPEAK /2. A standard surface mount ceramic capacitor can be used for COUT, though some applications may be better suited to a low leakage aluminum electrolytic capacitor or a supercapacitor. These capacitors can be obtained from manufacturers such as Vishay, Illinois Capacitor, AVX, or CAP-XX.

These capacitors hold up the internal rails during buck switching and compensate the internal rail generation circuits. In applications where the input source is limited to less than 6V, the CAP pin can be tied to GND and the VIN2 pin can be tied to VIN as shown in Figure 6. This circuit does not require the capacitors on VIN2 and CAP, saving components and allowing a lower voltage rating for the single VIN capacitor. The buck is optimized to work with an inductor of at least 22μH. This value represents a suitable trade-off between size and efficiency for typical applications. A larger inductor will benefit high voltage applications by increasing the on-time of the PMOS switch and improving efficiency by reducing gate charge loss.

Smallest Solution Size 1.2V Low Input Voltage Power Supply 338813f 15 LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Efficiency Considerations The 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. Efficiency can be expressed as: Efficiency = 100% – (η1 + η 2 + η 3 + ...) where η1, η2, etc. are the individual losses as a percentage of input power. Although all dissipative elements in the circuit produce losses, three main sources usually account for most of the losses: 1) DC VIN operating current while active and in sleep, 2) MOSFET gate charge loss, and 3) I2R losses. The VIN operating current dominates the efficiency loss at very low load currents whereas the gate charge and I2R loss dominates the efficiency loss at medium to high load currents. 1. The DC VIN current is the average of the quiescent supply currents, given in the electrical characteristics, in the active and sleep modes. This can be estimated with the following equation: ⎛ ILOAD ⎞ ILOAD IVIN(AVG) = IQ(ACTIVE) + ⎜ 1− ⎟ IQ(SLEEP) IBUCK ⎝ IBUCK ⎠ where IBUCK is the average current being delivered from the buck converter, typically IPEAK/2. For very light loads IQ(SLEEP) will dominate this loss term which is why the extremely low quiescent current in sleep of the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 is critical. 2. Internal MOSFET gate charge currents result from switching the gate capacitance of the internal power MOSFET switches. Each time the gate is switched from high to low to high again, a packet of charge, dQ, moves from VIN to ground. The resulting dQ/dt is the current out of VIN that is typically larger than the DC bias current. Of course, this switching current only appears when the buck is on and is important at high load currents. Gate charge loss can be reduced by increasing the inductor, thereby reducing the switching frequency when the buck is active. 3. I2R losses are calculated from the resistances of the internal switches, RSW, and the external inductor DCR. When switching, the average output current flowing through the inductor is “chopped” between the high side PMOS switch and the low side NMOS switch. Thus, the series resistance looking back into the switch pin is a function of the top and bottom switch on-resistance and the duty cycle (DC = VOUT/VIN) as follows: RSW = (RP,BUCK)DC + (RN,BUCK)(1 – DC) The on-resistance for both the top and bottom MOSFETs can be obtained from the curves in the Typical Performance Characteristics section. Thus, to obtain the I2R losses, simply add RSW to the DCR and multiply the result by the square of the average output current: I2R Loss = IO2(RSW + DCR) This loss term only occurs when the buck is operating and must be multiplied by the percentage of time the buck is operating versus sleeping or ILOAD/IBUCK to see its overall effect. Other losses, including CIN and COUT ESR dissipative losses and inductor core losses, generally account for less than 2% of the total power loss. 338813f 16 LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Interfacing with a Microprocessor ripple in the output voltage of the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 will cease and the output capacitor will support the load of the microprocessor and other circuitry. While in standby the output voltage will decrease as it’s loaded. The output capacitor should be sized to minimize the decline. The PGOOD, STBY, and EN pins can be useful when powering a microprocessor from the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3. The PGOOD signal can be used to enable a sleeping microprocessor or other circuitry when VOUT reaches regulation, as shown in Figure 7. While active, a microprocessor may draw a small load when operating sensors, and then draw a large load to transmit data. Figure 7 shows the LTC3388-1/ LTC3388-3 responding smoothly to such a load step. The EN pin can be used to activate the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3. For instance, in Figure 8 the LTC3388-1 is enabled by the PGOOD output of the LTC3588-1, a piezoelectric energy harvesting power supply, to create a 1.2V rail. The quiescent current that the LTC3388-1 draws will appear at the input of the LTC3588-1, reduced by the conversion ratio of the LTC3588-1 buck converter. Because the LTC3388-1 is driven by a 3.3V supply no capacitors are needed for the internal VIN2 and CAP rails. The microprocessor or other circuitry may require a quiet supply for performing some functions. The STBY pin allows the microprocessor to place the LTC3388-1/LTC3388-3 into standby mode where the buck converter is inactive.
