High Voltage Step-Down
Controller With 40µA
Quiescent Current
The LT C
®
3824 is a step-down DC/DC controller designed
to drive an external P-channel MOSFET. With a wide input
range of 4V to 60V and a high voltage gate driver, the
LTC3824 is suitable for many industrial and automotive
high power applications. Constant frequency current mode
operation provides excellent performance.
The LTC3824 can be configured for Burst Mode operation.
Burst Mode operation enhances low current efficiency
(only 40µA quiescent current) and extends battery run
time. The switching frequency can be programmed up to
600kHz and is easily synchronizable.
Other features include current limit, soft-start, micropower
shutdown, and Burst Mode disable.
The LTC3824 is available in a 10-lead MSE power package.
