amp of continuous current with peak currents up to 5A to

slew large MOSFET gates quickly. The external MOSFETs

are connected with the drain of QT attached to the input

supply and the source of QT at the switching node SW. QB

is the synchronous rectifier with its drain at SW and its

source at PGND. SW is connected to one end of the

inductor, with the other end connected to VOUT. The output

capacitor is connected from VOUT to PGND.

When a switching cycle begins, QB is turned off and QT is

turned on. SW rises almost immediately to VIN and the

inductor current begins to increase. When the PWM pulse

finishes, QT turns off and one nonoverlap interval later, QB

turns on. Now SW drops to PGND and the inductor current

decreases. The cycle repeats with the next tick of the

master clock. The percentage of time spent in each mode

is controlled by the duty cycle of the PWM signal, which in

turn is controlled by the feedback amplifier. The master

clock generates a 1VP-P, 550kHz sawtooth waveform and

turns QT once every 1.8

µs. In a typical application with a

5V input and a 1.6V output, the duty cycle will be set at 1.6/

× 100% or 32% by the feedback loop. This will give

roughly a 575ns on-time for QT and a 1.22

µs on-time for

QB.

This constant frequency operation brings with it a couple

of benefits. Inductor and capacitor values can be chosen

with a precise operating frequency in mind and the feed-

back loop components can be similarly tightly specified.

Noise generated by the circuit will always be in a known

frequency band with the 550kHz frequency designed to

leave the 455kHz IF band free of interference. Subharmonic

oscillation and slope compensation, common headaches

with constant frequency current mode switchers, are

absent in voltage mode designs like the LTC1702A.

During the time that QT is on, its source (the SW pin) is at

VIN. VIN is also the power supply for the LTC1702A. How-

ever, QT requires VIN + VGS(ON) at its gate to achieve

minimum RON. This presents a problem for the

LTC1702A— it needs to generate a gate drive signal at TG

higher than its highest supply voltage. To get around this,

the TG driver runs from floating supplies, with its negative

supply attached to SW and its power supply at BOOST.

This allows it to slew up and down with the source of QT.

In combination with a simple external charge pump (Fig-

ure 2), this allows the LTC1702A to completely enhance

the gate of QT without requiring an additional, higher

supply voltage.

The two channels of the LTC1702A run from a common

clock, with the phasing chosen to be 180

° from side 1 to

side 2. This has the effect of doubling the frequency of the

switching pulses seen by the input bypass capacitor, sig-

nificantly lowering the RMS current seen by the capacitor

and reducing the value required (see the 2-Phase section).
