The LTC®3612 is a low quiescent current monolithic synchronous buck regulator using a current mode, constant
frequency architecture. The no-load DC supply current
in sleep mode is only 70µA while maintaining the output
voltage (Burst Mode operation) at no load, dropping to
zero current in shutdown. The 2.25V to 5.5V input supply
voltage range makes the LTC3612 ideally suited for single
Li-Ion as well as fixed low voltage input applications. 100%
duty cycle capability provides low dropout operation,
extending the operating time in battery-powered systems.
The operating frequency is externally programmable up to
4MHz, allowing the use of small surface mount inductors.
For switching noise-sensitive applications, the LTC3612
can be synchronized to an external clock at up to 4MHz.
Forced continuous mode operation in the LTC3612 reduces
noise and RF interference. Adjustable compensation allows
the transient response to be optimized over a wide range
of loads and output capacitors.
The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and
eliminates the need for an external catch diode, saving
external components and board space. The LTC3612 is
offered in a leadless 20-pin 3mm × 4mm QFN or a thermally
enhanced 20-pin TSSOP package.

LTC3612
Applications Information
The RDS(ON) for both the top and bottom MOSFETs can
be obtained from the Typical Performance Characteristics curves. To obtain I2R losses, simply add RSW to
RL and multiply the result by the square of the average
output current.
Other losses including CIN and COUT ESR dissipative
losses and inductor core losses generally account for
less than 2% of the total loss.
Thermal Considerations
In most applications, the LTC3612 does not dissipate much
heat due to its high efficiency.
However, in applications where the LTC3612 is running at
high ambient temperature with low supply voltage and high
duty cycles, such as in dropout, the heat dissipated may
exceed the maximum junction temperature of the part. If
the junction temperature reaches approximately 160°C,
both power switches will be turned off and the SW node
will become high impedance.
To prevent the LTC3612 from exceeding the maximum
junction temperature, some thermal analysis is required.
The temperature rise is given by:
TRISE = (PD)(θJA)
where PD is the power dissipated by the regulator and θJA
is the thermal resistance from the junction of the die to
the ambient temperature. The junction temperature, TJ,
is given by:
TJ = TA + TRISE
Therefore, the junction temperature of the regulator operating at 70°C ambient temperature is approximately:
TJ = 0.675W • 43°C/W + 70°C = 99°C
We can safely assume that the actual junction temperature
will not exceed the absolute maximum junction temperature of 125°C.
Note that for very low input voltage, the junction temperature will be higher due to increased switch resistance,
RDS(ON). It is not recommended to use full load current
for high ambient temperature and low input voltage.
To maximize the thermal performance of the LTC3612 the
Exposed Pad should be soldered to a ground plane. See
the PCB Layout Board Checklist.
Design Example
As a design example, consider using the LTC3612 in an
application with the following specifications:
VIN = 2.25V to 5.5V, VOUT = 1.8V, IOUT(MAX) = 3A, IOUT(MIN)
= 100mA, f = 2.6MHz.
Efficiency is important at both high and low load current,
so Burst Mode operation will be utilized.
First, calculate the timing resistor:
PD = (IOUT)2 • RDS(ON) = 675mW
3.82 •1011Hz
Ω – 16kΩ = 130kΩ
2.6MHz
Next, calculate the inductor value for about 30% ripple
current at maximum VIN:
where TA is the ambient temperature.
As an example, consider the case when the LTC3612 is in
dropout at an input voltage of 3.3V with a load current of
3A at an ambient temperature of 70°C. From the Typical
Performance Characteristics graph of Switch Resistance,
the RDS(ON) resistance of the P‑channel switch is 0.075Ω.
Therefore, power dissipated by the part is:
RT =
1.8V 1.8V
L=
• 1–
= 0.466µH
2.6MHz •1A 5.5V
Using a standard value of 0.47µH inductor results in a
maximum ripple current of:
1.8V
1.8V
∆IL =
• 1–
= 0.99A
2.6MHz• 0.47µH 5.5V
For the QFN package, the θJA is 43°C/W.

LTC3612
Applications Information
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
68µF (or 47µF plus 22µF) ceramic capacitor is used with
a X5R or X7R dielectric.
CIN should be sized for a maximum current rating of:
IRMS = 3A •
1.8V 3.6V
•
– 1 = 1.5ARMS
3.6V 1.8V
Decoupling the PVIN with two 22µF capacitors, is adequate
for most applications.
If we set R2 = 196k, the value of R1 can now be determined
by solving the following equation.
1.8V
R1 = 196k •
−1
0.6V
Finally, define the soft start-up time choosing the proper
value for the capacitor and the resistor connected to TRACK/
SS. If we set minimum tSS = 5ms and a resistor of 2M,
the following equation can be solved with the maximum
SVIN = 5.5V :
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
checklist should be used to ensure proper operation of
the LTC3612:
1. A ground plane is recommended. If a ground plane layer
is not used, the signal and power grounds should be
segregated with all small-signal components returning
to the SGND pin at one point which is then connected
to the PGND pin close to the LTC3612.
2. Connect the (+) terminal of the input capacitor(s), CIN,
as close as possible to the PVIN pin, and the (–) terminal
as close as possible to the exposed pad, PGND. This
capacitor provides the AC current into the internal power
MOSFETs.
3. Keep the switching node, SW, away from all sensitive
small-signal nodes.
A value of 392k will be selected for R1.

2M •In
5.5V – 0.6V
4. Flood all unused areas on all layers with copper. Flooding with copper will reduce the temperature rise of
power components. Connect the copper areas to PGND
(exposed pad) for best performance.
5. Connect the VFB pin directly to the feedback resistors.
The resistor divider must be connected between VOUT
and SGND.
The standard value of 22nF guarantees the minimum softstart up time of 5ms.
Figure 1 shows the schematic for this design example.
