Applications Information
Design Example
As a design example, consider using the LTC3622 in an
application with the following specifications:
VIN1 = VIN1 = 10.8V to 13.2V
VOUT1 = 5V
VOUT2 = 3.3V
IOUT1(MAX) = 1A
IOUT2(MAX) = 1A
IOUT(MIN) = 0
fSW = 2.25MHz
Because efficiency is important at both high and low load
current, Burst Mode operation will be utilized.
Given the internal oscillator of 2.25MHz, we can calculate
the inductors value for about 40% ripple current at maxi-
mum VIN:

=
2.75µH
Using standard value of 3.3µH and 2.7µH for inductors
results in maximum ripple currents of:
ΔIL1
=
5V
2.25MHz •
3.3µH
1–



=
0.42A
ΔIL2

2.25MHz • 2.7µH
1–
3.3V
13.2V


=
0.41A
COUT will be selected based on the ESR that is required to
satisfy the output voltage ripple requirement and the bulk
capacitance needed for loop stability. For this design, a
22µF ceramic capacitor will be used.
CIN should be sized for a maximum current rating of:
IRMS1

1A





13.2 – 1 = 0.49A

IRMS2
=
1A


3.3
13.2


13.2 – 1 = 0.43A
3.3
Decoupling the VIN1 and VIN2 pins with 10µF ceramic
capacitors is adequate for most applications.
