Description
General part information
LTC3251 Series
The LTC3251/LTC3251-1.2/LTC3251-1.5 are 2-phase charge pump step-down DC/DC converters that produce a regulated output from a 2.7V to 5.5V input. The parts use switched capacitor fractional conversion to achieve twice the typical efficiency of a linear regulator. No inductors are required. VOUTis resistor programmable from 0.9V to 1.6V or fixed at 1.2V or 1.5V, with up to 500mA of load current available.A unique 2-phase spread spectrum architecture provides a very low noise regulated output as well as low noise at the input. The parts have four operating modes: Continuous Spread Spectrum, Spread Spectrum with Burst Mode operation, Super Burst™mode operation and shutdown.Low operating current (35µA in Burst Mode operation, 10µA in Super Burst mode operation) and low external parts count make the LTC3251/LTC3251-1.2/LTC3251-1.5 ideally suited for space-constrained battery-powered applications. The parts are short-circuit and over-temperature protected, and are available in a thermally enhanced 10-pin MSOP package.ApplicationsHandheld DevicesCellular PhonesPortable Electronic EquipmentDSP Power Supplies
