DESCRIPTION
The LT^®3995 is an adjustable frequency monolithic buck
switching regulator that accepts a wide input voltage range
up to 60V. Low quiescent current design consumes only
2.7µA of supply current while regulating with no load. Low
ripple Burst Mode operation maintains high efficiency at
low output currents while keeping the output ripple below
15mV in a typical application. The LT3995 can supply up
to 3A of load current and has current limit foldback to
limit power dissipation during short circuit. A low dropout
voltage of 500mV is maintained when the input voltage
drops below the programmed output voltage, such as
during automotive cold crank.
An internally compensated current mode topology is used
for fast transient response and good loop stability. A high
efficiency 85mΩ switch is included on the die along with a
boost Schottky diode and the necessary oscillator, control,
and logic circuitry. An accurate 1.02V threshold enable pin
can be driven directly from a microcontroller or used as a
programmable undervoltage lockout. A capacitor on the
SS pin provides a controlled inrush current (soft-start).
A power good flag signals when V_OUT reaches 91.6% of
the programmed output voltage. The LT3995 is available
in a small 16-lead MSOP package with exposed pad for
low thermal resistance.
