LTC3632
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The undervoltage lockout requirement on VIN can be
satisfied with a resistive divider from VIN to the RUN and
HYST pins. Choose R1 = 2M and calculate R2 and R3 as
follows:
R2
=



1.21V
VIN(RISING) –
1.21V



•
R1=
224k
R3
=



1.1V
VIN(FALLING)
–
1.1V



•
R1–
R2
=
90.8k
Choose standard values for R2 = 226k and R3 = 91k.
The ISET pin should be left open in this example to select
maximum peak current (50mA). Figure 9 shows a complete
schematic for this design example.

3. Keep the switching node, SW, away from all sensi-
tive small-signal nodes. The rapid transitions on the
switching node can couple to high impedance nodes,
in particular VFB, and create increased output ripple.
4. Flood all unused area on all layers with copper. Flooding
with copper will reduce the temperature rise of power
components. You can connect the copper areas to any
DC net (VIN, VOUT, GND or any other DC rail in your
system).

PC Board Layout Checklist
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
checklist should be used to ensure proper operation of
the LTC3632. Check the following in your layout:
1. Large switched currents flow in the power switches
and input capacitor. The loop formed by these compo-
nents should be as small as possible. A ground plane
is recommended to minimize ground impedance.
2. Connect the (+) terminal of the input capacitor, CIN, as
close as possible to the VIN pin. This capacitor provides
the AC current into the internal power MOSFETs.
