DescripTion
Low Ripple Burst Mode® Operation
The LT®3970 is an adjustable frequency monolithic buck
switching regulator that accepts a wide input voltage
range up to 40V, and consumes only 2.5µA of quiescent
current. A high efficiency switch is included on the die
along with the catch diode, boost diode, and the neces-
saryoscillator, controlandlogiccircuitry. LowrippleBurst
Mode operation maintains high efficiency at low output
currents while keeping the output ripple below 5mV in a
typical application. Current mode topology is used for fast
transient response and good loop stability. A catch diode
current limit provides protection against shorted outputs
and overvoltage conditions. An enable pin with accurate
threshold is available, producing a low shutdown current

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
LT3970I is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction
temperature range. The LT3970H is guaranteed over the full –40°C to
150°C operating junction temperature range. High junction temperatures
degrade operating lifetimes. Operating lifetime is derated at junction
temperatures greater than 125°C.
Note 3: Bias current flows into the FB pin.
Note 4: This is the minimum voltage across the boost capacitor needed to
Note 2: The LT3970E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 125°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C
to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design,
characterization, and correlation with statistical process controls. The
guarantee full saturation of the switch.

The LT3970 is a constant frequency, current mode step-
down regulator. An oscillator, with frequency set by RT,
sets an RS flip-flop, turning on the internal power switch.
An amplifier and comparator monitor the current flowing
If the EN pin is low, the LT3970 is shut down and draws
0.7µA from the input. When the EN pin exceeds 1V, the
switching regulator will become active.

if it decreases, less current is delivered.
Anothercomparatormonitorsthecurrentflowingthrough

the current exceeds the 400mA bottom current limit. This
foldback in frequency helps to control the output current
in fault conditions such as a shorted output with high
input voltage. Maximum deliverable current to the output
is therefore limited by both switch current limit and catch
diode current limit.
The LT3970 contains a power good comparator which
trips when the FB pin is at 90% of its regulated value. The
PG output is an open-drain transistor that is off when the
output is in regulation, allowing an external resistor to pull
the PG pin high. Power good is valid when the LT3970 is
enabled and V is above 4.2V.
IN
An internal regulator provides power to the control cir-
cuitry. The bias regulator normally draws power from
the V pin, but if the BD pin is connected to an external

theexternalsource(typicallytheregulatedoutputvoltage).
This improves efficiency.

A good choice of switching frequency should allow ad-

the inductor and capacitor values small.
Input Voltage Range
The minimum input voltage is determined by either the
LT3970’s minimum operating voltage of 4.2V or by its
maximum duty cycle (as explained in previous section).

lesser inductor value may be acceptable. This allows use
of a physically smaller inductor, or one with a lower DCR
resulting in higher efficiency. There are several graphs in

Step-down regulators draw current from the input sup-
ply in pulses with very fast rise and fall times. The input
capacitor is required to reduce the resulting voltage
ripple at the LT3970 and to force this very high frequency
switching current into a tight local loop, minimizing EMI.
A 1µF capacitor is capable of this task, but only if it is
placed close to the LT3970 (see the PCB Layout section).

A ceramic input capacitor combined with trace or cable
inductance forms a high quality (under damped) tank
circuit. If the LT3970 circuit is plugged into a live supply,
the input voltage can ring to twice its nominal value, pos-
sibly exceeding the LT3970’s voltage rating. This situation
is easily avoided (see the Hot Plugging Safely section).

When choosing a capacitor, look carefully through the
data sheet to find out what the actual capacitance is under
operating conditions (applied voltage and temperature).
A physically larger capacitor or one with a higher voltage
rating may be required. Table 3 lists several capacitor
vendors.
Output Capacitor and Output Ripple
The output capacitor has two essential functions. It stores
energy in order to satisfy transient loads and stabilize the
LT3970’s control loop. Ceramic capacitors have very low
equivalent series resistance (ESR) and provide the best
ripple performance. A good starting value is:

value of output capacitor can be used to save space and

Ceramic Capacitors
Ceramic capacitors are small, robust and have very low
ESR. However, ceramic capacitors can cause problems
whenusedwiththeLT3970duetotheirpiezoelectricnature.
When in Burst Mode operation, the LT3970’s switching
frequency depends on the load current, and at very light
loads the LT3970 can excite the ceramic capacitor at audio
frequencies, generating audible noise. Since the LT3970
operates at a lower current limit during Burst Mode

with the inductor, filters the square wave generated by the

A final precaution regarding ceramic capacitors concerns
the maximum input voltage rating of the LT3970. As pre-
viously mentioned, a ceramic input capacitor combined
with trace or cable inductance forms a high quality (under
damped)tankcircuit. IftheLT3970circuitispluggedintoa

Low Ripple Burst Mode Operation
Figure 3. Switching Frequency in Burst Mode Operation
To enhance efficiency at light loads, the LT3970 operates
inlowrippleBurstModeoperationwhichkeepstheoutput
capacitor charged to the proper voltage while minimizing
the input quiescent current. During Burst Mode opera-
tion, the LT3970 delivers single cycle bursts of current to
the output capacitor followed by sleep periods where the
output power is delivered to the load by the output capaci-
tor. Because the LT3970 delivers power to the output with
single, low current pulses, the output ripple is kept below
5mV for a typical application. See Figure 2.
At higher output loads (above ~45mA for the front page
application) the LT3970 will be running at the frequency
programmed by the R resistor, and will be operating in
T
standard PWM mode. The transition between PWM and
low ripple Burst Mode is seamless, and will not disturb
the output voltage.
BOOST and BD Pin Considerations
CapacitorC3andtheinternalboostSchottkydiode(seethe
Block Diagram) are used to generate a boost voltage that
is higher than the input voltage. In most cases a 0.22µF
capacitor will work well. Figure 4 shows two ways to ar-
range the boost circuit. The BOOST pin must be more than
1.9V above the SW pin for best efficiency. For outputs of
2.2V and above, the standard circuit (Figure 4a) is best.
For outputs between 2.2V and 2.5V, use a 0.47µF boost
capacitor. For output voltages below 2.2V, the boost diode
can be tied to the input (Figure 4b), or to another external
supply greater than 2.2V. However, the circuit in Figure 4a
is more efficient because the BOOST pin current and BD
pin quiescent current come from a lower voltage source.
Also, be sure that the maximum voltage ratings of the
BOOST and BD pins are not exceeded.
Astheloadcurrentdecreasestowardsanoloadcondition,
the percentage of time that the LT3970 operates in sleep
mode increases and the average input current is greatly
reduced resulting inhigh efficiencyevenatvery low loads.
Note that during Burst Mode operation, the switching
frequency will be lower than the programmed switching
frequency. See Figure 3.

Figure 4. Two Circuits for Generating the Boost Voltage
If the input voltage is ramped slowly, the boost capacitor
may not be fully charged. Because the boost capacitor is
charged with the energy stored in the inductor, the circuit
will rely on some minimum load current to get the boost
circuit running properly. This minimum load will depend
on input and output voltages, and on the arrangement of
the boost circuit. The minimum load generally goes to
zero once the circuit has started. Figure 5 shows a plot
of minimum load to start and to run as a function of input
voltage. In many cases the discharged output capacitor
will present a load to the switcher, which will allow it to

Shorted and Reversed Input Protection
If the inductor is chosen so that it won’t saturate exces-
sively, a LT3970 buck regulator will tolerate a shorted
output. There is another situation to consider in systems
where the output will be held high when the input to the
LT3970 is absent. This may occur in battery charging ap-
plications or in battery backup systems where a battery

a local, unbroken ground plane below these components.
The SW and BOOST nodes should be as small as possible.
Finally, keep the FB nodes small so that the ground traces
will shield them from the SW and BOOST nodes. The
Exposed Pad on the bottom of the DFN package must be
soldered to ground so that the pad acts as a heat sink. To
keep thermal resistance low, extend the ground plane as
much as possible, and add thermal vias under and near
the LT3970 to additional ground planes within the circuit
board and on the bottom side.
High Temperature Considerations
For higher ambient temperatures, care should be taken
in the layout of the PCB to ensure good heat sinking
of the LT3970. The Exposed Pad on the bottom of the
DFN package must be soldered to a ground plane. This
ground should be tied to large copper layers below with
thermal vias; these layers will spread the heat dissipated
by the LT3970. Placing additional vias can reduce thermal
resistance further. In the MSOP package, the copper lead
frame is fused to GND (Pin 5) so place thermal vias near
this pin. The maximum load current should be derated
as the ambient temperature approaches the maximum
junction rating.

GND
Power dissipation within the LT3970 can be estimated by
calculatingthetotalpowerlossfromanefficiencymeasure-
ment and subtracting inductor loss. The die temperature
is calculated by multiplying the LT3970 power dissipation
by the thermal resistance from junction to ambient.

Application Notes 19, 35 and 44 contain more detailed
descriptions and design information for buck regulators
and other switching regulators. The LT1376 data sheet
has a more extensive discussion of output ripple, loop
compensation and stability testing. Design Note 100
shows how to generate a bipolar output supply using a
buck regulator.
Hot Plugging Safely
The small size, robustness and low impedance of ceramic
capacitors make them an attractive option for the input
bypass capacitor of LT3970 circuits. However, these ca-
pacitors can cause problems if the LT3970 is plugged into
a live supply. The low loss ceramic capacitor, combined
