Dual 600mA 15V Monolithic
Synchronous Step-Down
DC/DC Regulator
Description
The LTC®3607 is a 15V dual 600mA monolithic synchro-
nous step-down regulator which has only 55µA quiescent
current. Intended for a variety of applications, including
dual lithium-ion battery products, it operates from a wide
4.5V to 15V input voltage range. It features a constant
2.25MHz switching frequency, enabling the use of tiny,
low cost capacitors and inductors 1mm or less in height.
Each output voltage is adjustable from 0.6V to VIN. The
internal synchronous power switches provide high ef-
ficiency without the need for external Schottky diodes.
A user selectable mode input is provided to allow the user
to trade off ripple noise for light load efficiency; Burst
Mode operation provides the highest efficiency at light
loads, while pulse-skipping mode provides the lowest
ripple noise.
To further the maximize battery run time, the P-channel
MOSFETs are turned on continuously in dropout (100%
duty cycle). In shutdown, the device draws <1µA.
