LTC1877  
High Efficiency  
Monolithic Synchronous  
Step-Down Regulator  
FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
The LTC®1877 s a high efficiency monolithic synchronous  
buck regulator using a constant-frequency, current mode  
architecture. Supplycurrentduringoperationisonly10μA  
and drops to < 1μA in shutdown. The 2.65V to 10V input  
voltage range makes the LTC1877 ideally suited for both  
singleanddualLi-Ionbattery-poweredapplications.100%  
duty cycle provides low dropout operation, extending bat-  
tery life in portable systems.

Synchronizable from 400kHz to 700kHz  
Switching frequency is internally set at 550kHz, allowing  
the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors.  
For noise sensitive applications the LTC1877 can be exter-  
nally synchronized from 400kHz to 700kHz. Burst Mode  
operation is inhibited during synchronization or when the  
SYNC/MODE pin is pulled low, preventing low frequency  
ripple from interfering with audio circuitry.

The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency  
and eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode.  
Low output voltages are easily supported with the 0.8V  
feedback reference voltage. The LTC1877 is available in a  
space saving 8-lead MSOP package. Lower input voltage  
applications (less than 7V abs max) should refer to the  
LTC1878 data sheet.

are disabled drawing <1μA supply current. Forcing this

clock, apply a clock with a frequency between 400kHz

LTC1877  
(Refer to Functional Diagram)  
OPERATION  
The LTC1877 uses a constant-frequency, current mode  
step-down architecture. Both the main (P-channel MOS-  
FET) and synchronous (N-channel MOSFET) switches are  
internal. During normal operation, the internal top power  
MOSFET is turned on each cycle when the oscillator sets  
the RS latch, and turned off when the current comparator,  
then disconnected from the output of the EA amplifier and  
parked a diode voltage above ground.  
In sleep mode, both power MOSFETs are held off and a  
majority of the internal circuitry is partially turned off,  
reducing the quiescent current to 10μA. The load current  
is now being supplied solely from the output capacitor.

Frequency Synchronization  
A phase-locked loop (PLL) is available on the LTC1877 to  
allowtheinternaloscillatortobesynchronizedtoanexternal  
source connected to the SYNC/MODE pin. The output of  
the phase detector at the PLL LPF pin operates over a 0V  
to 2.4V range corresponding to 400kHz to 700kHz. When  
locked, the PLL aligns the turn-on of the top MOSFET to  
the rising edge of the synchronizing signal.  
Burst Mode Operation  
The LTC1877 is capable of Burst Mode operation in which  
the internal power MOSFETs operate intermittently based  
on load demand. To enable Burst Mode operation, simply  
tie the SYNC/MODE pin to V or connect it to a logic

dissipation when the LTC1877 is used at 100% duty cycle  
with a low input voltage (see Thermal Considerations in  
the Applications Information section).  
Slope Compensation and Inductor Peak Current  
Slope compensation provides stability in constant-fre-  
quency architectures by preventing subharmonic oscilla-  
tions at high duty cycles. It is accomplished internally by  
addingacompensatingramptotheinductorcurrentsignal  
at duty cycles in excess of 40%. As a result, the maximum  
inductor peak current is reduced for duty cycles >40%.

required.Severalcapacitorsmayalsobeparalleledtomeet

the manufacturer if there is any question.  
Inductor Core Selection  
Once the value for L is known, the type of inductor must  
be selected. High efficiency converters generally cannot  
affordthecorelossfoundinlowcostpowderedironcores,  
forcing the use of more expensive ferrite, molypermalloy,  
or Kool Mμ cores. Actual core loss is independent of core  
size for a fixed inductor value, but it is very dependent  
on inductance selected. As inductance increases, core  
losses go down. Unfortunately, increased inductance  
requires more turns of wire and therefore copper losses  
will increase.  
The selection of C  
is driven by the required effective  
OUT  
series resistance (ESR). Typically, once the ESR require-  
ment is satisfied, the capacitance is adequate for filtering.  
The output ripple ΔV  
is determined by:

ΔVOUT ≅ ΔI ESR+  
Ferrite designs have very low core losses and are pre-  
ferred at high switching frequencies, so design goals can  
concentrate on copper loss and preventing saturation.  
Ferrite core material saturates hard, which means that  
inductancecollapsesabruptlywhenthepeakdesigncurrent

A 15μH inductor works well for this application. For best  
efficiency choose a 1A inductor with less than 0.25Ω  
series resistance.  
As a design example, assume the LTC1877 is used in a  
singlelithium-ionbattery-poweredcellularphoneapplica-  
tion. The input voltage will be operating from a maximum  
of 4.2V down to about 2.7V. The load current requirement  
is a maximum of 0.3A but most of the time it will be in  
standby mode, requiring only 2mA. Efficiency at both  
low and high load currents is important. Output voltage  
is 2.5V. With this information we can calculate L using  
Equation (1),
