3667fbFor more information www.linear .com/L T3667 TYPICAL APPLICATION FEATURES DESCRIPTION 40V 400mA Step-Down Switching Regulator with Dual Fault Protected LDOs The LT®3667 is a monolithic triple power supply composed of a 400mA buck switching regulator and two 200mA low dropout linear regulators (LDOs). The buck regulator includes a high efficiency switch, a boost diode, and the necessary oscillator, control and logic circuitry. Current mode topology is used for fast transient response and good loop stability. Low ripple Burst Mode operation maintains high efficiency at low output currents while keeping output ripple below 15mV in a typical application. Each LDO supplies 200mA of output current with a typical dropout voltage of 340mV, and each LDO has an accurate resistor programmable current limit. Internal protection circuitry includes reverse-battery protection, current limiting, thermal limiting and reverse current protection. The LT3667 is available in a thermally-enhanced 16-Lead MSOP and a 24-Pin 3mm x 5mm QFN package with ex - posed pad for low thermal resistance. No-Load Supply Current

Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime. Note 2: Positive currents flow into pins, negative currents flow out of pins. Minimum and maximum values refer to absolute values. Note 3: Absolute maximum voltage at the IN1, UVLO1 and EN pins is 60V for nonrepetitive 1 second transients, and 40V for continuous operation. Note 4: The LT3667E 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 LT3667I is guaranteed over the full −40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range. The LT3667H is guaranteed over the full −40°C to 150°C operating junction temperature range. Note 5: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction temperature will exceed the maximum operating junction temperature when overtemperature protection is active. Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction temperature may impair device reliability. Note 6: This is the voltage necessary to keep the internal bias circuitry in regulation. Note 7: Current limit guaranteed by design and/or correlation to static test. Slope compensation reduces current limit at higher duty cycles. Note 8: This is the minimum voltage across the boost capacitor needed to guarantee full saturation of the switch. Note 9: Dropout voltage is the minimum input-to-output voltage differential needed for an LDO to maintain regulation at a specified output current. When an LDO is in dropout, its output voltage will be equal to V IN – VDROP. Note 10: To satisfy minimum input voltage requirements, the LT3667 is tested and specified for these conditions with an external resistor divider (80.6k bottom, 422k top) which sets V OUT to 5V. The external resistor divider adds 9.93μA of DC load on the output. This external current is not factored into GND pin current. Note 11: GND pin current is tested with V IN = VOUT(NOMINAL) + 0.6V and a current source load. GND pin current increases in dropout. Note 12: The LT3667 is tested and specified for these conditions with FB2 (FB3) pin connected to the OUT2 (OUT3) pin. Note 13: Reverse output current is tested with the IN2 (IN3) pin grounded and the OUT2 (OUT3) pin forced to the rated output voltage. This current flows into the OUT2 (OUT3) pin and out of the GND pin.

3667fbFor more information www.linear .com/L T3667 OPERATION The LT3667 combines a 400mA buck switching regulator and two 200mA low dropout linear regulators. Operation is best understood by referring to the Block Diagrams. The buck regulator part is a constant frequency, current mode step-down regulator. An oscillator, with frequency set by R T, sets an RS flip-flop, turning on the internal power switch. An amplifier and comparator monitor the current flowing between the IN1 and SW pins, turning the switch off when this current reaches a level determined by the voltage at VC. An error amplifier measures the output voltage through an external resistor divider tied to the FB1 pin and servos the VC node. If the error amplifier’s output increases, more current is delivered to the output; if it decreases, less current is delivered. Another comparator monitors the current flowing through the catch diode and reduces the operating frequency when the current exceeds the 500mA 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. An internal regulator provides power to the control circuitry. The bias regulator normally draws power from the IN1 pin, but if the IN3/BD (MSOP) or BD (QFN) pin is connected to an external voltage higher than 3.2V, bias power will be drawn from the external source (typically the regulated output voltage). This improves efficiency. The switch driver operates from either IN1 or from the BOOST pin. An external capacitor is used to generate a voltage at the BOOST pin that is higher than the input supply. This allows the driver to fully saturate the internal NPN power switch for efficient operation. To further optimize efficiency, the LT3667 automatically switches to Burst Mode operation in light load situations. Between bursts, all circuitry associated with controlling the output switch is shut down, reducing the input supply current to 50μA (including the current drawn by the LDOs). The switching regulator has an overvoltage protection feature which disables switching action when IN1 goes above 42V (typical) during transients. It can then safely sustain transient input voltages up to 60V. The switching regulator can also be separately shut down via the UVLO1 pin, which can be used to implement a programmable undervoltage lockout with an external resistive divider. The LDO blocks are micropower, low noise 200mA linear regulators with low dropout voltage and current limit, which provide fast transient response with minimum low ESR 2.2µF ceramic output capacitors. Each output cur - rent limit can be programmed individually with a single resistor, and pulling the EN2/ILIM2 or EN3/ILIM3 pin high shuts down the corresponding LDO. Internal protection circuitry includes reverse-battery protection, reverse- output protection, reverse-current protection, and current limit with foldback. The internal reference voltage circuitry is supplied by the IN1 and IN2 pins. This allows the LDO at IN2 to run independently and supply the switching regulator with its output OUT2. The EN pin is used to place the LT3667 in shutdown, thereby reducing the input current to less than 1μA. The LT3667 contains three power good window com - parators that indicate whether the output voltages are within ±10% of their nominal value. The outputs of these comparators are open-drain transistors which are off when their corresponding output is in regulation, allowing external resistors to pull the power good pins high. The PG pin provides a combined power good signal, while the QFN package additionally allows access to the individual power good signals through pins PG1, PG2 and PG3. Power good is valid if the LT3667 is enabled and IN1 or IN2 are above their minimum input voltages. Internal thermal limiting protects the LT3667 during overload conditions.
3667fb For more information www.linear .com/L T3667 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION SWITCHING REGULATOR FB1 Resistor Network The switching regulator output voltage of the LT3667 is programmed with a resistor divider between the output of the switching regulator and the FB1 pin. Choose the resistor values according to: R1=R2 VOUT1 1.2V –1 Reference designators refer to the Block Diagram of the LT3667. 1% resistors are recommended to maintain output voltage accuracy. Note that choosing larger resistors will decrease the quiescent current of the application circuit. Setting the Switching Frequency The LT3667 regulator uses a constant frequency PWM architecture that can be programmed to switch from 250kHz to 2.2MHz by using a resistor tied from the RT pin to ground. Table 1 shows the necessary RT value for a desired switching frequency. Table 1: Switching Frequency vs RT Value SWITCHING FREQUENCY (MHz) RT VALUE (kΩ) 0.25 475 0.3 383 0.4 274 0.5 215 0.6 174 0.8 124 1 95.3 1.2 75 1.4 61.9 1.6 51.1 1.8 43.2 2 37.4 2.2 32.4 Operating Frequency T rade-Offs Selection of the operating frequency is a trade-off between efficiency, component size, minimum dropout voltage, and maximum input voltage. The advantage of high frequency operation is that smaller inductor and capacitor values may be used. The disadvantages are lower efficiency, lower maximum input voltage, and higher dropout voltage. The highest acceptable switching frequency (f SW(MAX)) for a given application can be calculated as follows: fSW(MAX) = VOUT1 + VD tON(MIN) VIN1 – VSW + VD( ) where VIN1 is the typical input voltage, VOUT1 is the output voltage, VD is the catch diode drop (~0.5V) and VSW is the internal switch drop (~0.5V at max load). This equation shows that slower switching frequency is necessary to accommodate high V IN1/VOUT1 ratio. Lower frequency also allows a lower dropout voltage. Input voltage range depends on the switching frequency because the LT3667 switch has finite minimum on and off times. The switch can turn on for a minimum of ~150ns and turn off for a minimum of ~170ns (note that the minimum on- time is a strong function of temperature). The minimum and maximum duty cycles that can be achieved taking minimum on and off times into account are: DCMIN = fSW • tON(MIN) DCMAX = 1 − fSW • tOFF(MIN) where f SW is the switching frequency, t ON(MIN) is the minimum switch on-time (~150ns), and t OFF(MIN) is the minimum switch off-time (~170ns). These equations show that the duty cycle range increases when the switching frequency is decreased. A good choice of switching frequency should allow an adequate input voltage range (see Input Voltage Range section) and keep the inductor and capacitor values small.

3667fb For more information www.linear .com/L T3667 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION This simple design guide will not always result in the optimum inductor selection for a given application. As a general rule, lower output voltages and higher switching frequency will require smaller inductor values. If the ap - plication requires less than 400mA load current, then a lesser inductor value may be acceptable. This allows the use of a physically smaller inductor, or one with a lower DCR resulting in higher efficiency. However, the inductance should in general not be smaller than 10µH. Be aware that if the inductance differs from the simple rule above, then the maximum load current will depend on input voltage. In addition, low inductance may result in discontinuous mode operation, which further reduces maximum load current. For details of maximum output current and discontinuous mode operation, see Linear Technology’s Application Note 44. Finally, for duty cycles greater than 50% (V OUT1/VIN1 > 0.5), a minimum inductance is required to avoid sub-harmonic oscillations: LMIN = VOUT1 + VD( ) • 2 fSW where fSW is the switching frequency in MHz, V OUT1 is the output voltage, V D is the catch diode drop (~0.5V) and LMIN is the inductor value in µH. Catch Diode The catch diode (D1 from block diagram) conducts current only during switch off-time. Use a 1A Schottky diode for best performance. Peak reverse voltage is equal to V IN1 if it is below the overvoltage protection threshold. This feature keeps the switch off for VIN1 > OVLO (44V maximum). For inputs up to the maximum operating voltage of 40V, use a diode with a reverse voltage rating greater than the input voltage. If transients at the input of up to 60V are expected, use a diode with a reverse voltage rating only higher than the maximum OVLO of 44V. If operating at high ambient temperatures, consider using a Schottky with low reverse leakage. For example, Diodes Inc. SBR1U40LP or DFLS160, ON Semi MBRM140, and Central Semiconductor CMMSH1-60 are good choices for the catch diode. Input Capacitor Bypass the input of the LT3667 circuit with a ceramic capacitor of X7R or X5R type. Y5V types have poor performance over temperature and applied voltage, and should not be used. A 1μF to 4.7μF ceramic capacitor is adequate to bypass the LT3667 and will easily handle the ripple current. Note that a larger input capacitance is required when a lower switching frequency is used (due to longer on-times). If the input power source has high impedance, or there is significant inductance due to long wires or cables, additional bulk capacitance may be necessary. This can be provided with a low performance electrolytic capacitor. Step-down regulators draw current from the input supply in pulses with very fast rise and fall times. The input capacitor is required to reduce the resulting voltage ripple at the LT3667 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 LT3667 (see the PCB Layout section). A second precaution regarding the ceramic input capacitor concerns the maximum input voltage rating of the LT3667. A ceramic input capacitor combined with trace or cable inductance forms a high quality (under damped) tank circuit. If the LT3667 circuit is plugged into a live supply, the input voltage can ring to twice its nominal value, possibly exceeding the LT3667’s voltage rating. This situation is easily avoided (see the Hot Plugging Safely section). Output Capacitor and Output Ripple The output capacitor has two essential functions. Along with the inductor, it filters the square wave generated by the LT3667 to produce the DC output. In this role it determines the output ripple, and low impedance at the switching frequency is important. The second function is to store energy in order to satisfy transient loads and stabilize the switching regulator’s control loop. Ceramic capacitors have very low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and provide the best ripple performance. A good starting value is: COUT1 = 50 VOUT1 • fSW

3667fb For more information www.linear .com/L T3667 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION External Programmable Current Limit, Enable Each EN/ILIM pin (EN2/ILIM2 and EN3/ILIM3) is the col- lector of a PNP which mirrors the corresponding LDO’s output at a ratio of 1:799 (see Block Diagram). The EN2/ ILIM2 and EN3/ILIM3 pins are also the inputs to preci - sion current limit amplifiers. If an output load increases to the point where it causes the corresponding current limit amplifier input voltage to reach 0.4V, the current limit amplifier takes control of output regulation so that its input clamps at 0.4V, regardless of the output voltage. The current limit threshold (I LIMIT) of an LDO is set by attaching a resistor (RIMAX) from the corresponding EN/ ILIM pin to ground: RIMAX = 799 •0.4V ILIM – 80Ω In order to maintain stability, each EN/ILIM pin requires a 47nF capacitor from that pin to ground. In cases where the input to output voltage differential exceeds 10V, foldback current limit will lower the inter - nal current level limit, possibly causing it to preempt the external programmable current limit. See the Internal Current Limit vs Input/Output Differential graph in the Typical Performance Characteristics section. If an external current limit is not needed, the correspond- ing EN/ILIM pin must be connected to ground, in which case no capacitor is required. Each LDO can be individually shut down by pulling its EN/ ILIM pin above 1.2V (1V typical). Note that in this case this pin will draw up to 500µA in certain operating conditions until the LDO is shut down, which the circuit driving this pin must be able to deliver. When an EN/ILIM pin is only used to enable/disable an LDO, no capacitor is required on this pin. Overload Recovery Each LDO of the LT3667 has a safe operating area pro - tection, which decreases current limit as input-to-output voltage increases, and keeps the power transistor inside a safe operating region for all values of input-to-output voltage. Each LDO provides some output current at all values of input-to-output voltage up to the device break- down. When power is first applied to an LDO, the input voltage rises and the output follows the input; allowing the regulator to start-up into very heavy loads. During start-up, as the input voltage is rising, the input-to-output voltage differential is small, allowing the regulator to supply large output currents. With a high input voltage, a problem can occur wherein the removal of an output short will not allow the output to recover. The problem occurs with a heavy output load when the input voltage is high and the output voltage is low. Common situations are: immediately after the removal of a short-circuit or if an LDO is enabled via its EN/ILIM pin after the input voltage is already turned on. In such cases, the regulator would have to operate its power device outside its safe operating are (high voltage and high current) in order to bring up the output voltage. Since this is prevented by the safe operating area protec- tion, the output gets stuck at a low voltage. Essentially, the load line for such a load intersects the output current curve at two points, resulting in two stable output operating points for the regulator. With this double intersection, the input power supply needs to be cycled down to zero and brought up again to make the output recover. Protection Features The LT3667 LDO’s protect against reverse-input volt - ages, reverse-output voltages and reverse output-to-input voltages. Current limit protection and thermal overload protection protect the LDOs against current overload conditions at their outputs. For normal operation, do not exceed the maximum operating junction temperature. The LT3667 IN2 and IN3 (QFN only) pins withstand reverse voltages of 45V. The device limits current flow to less than 300μA (typically less than 10μA) and no negative voltages appear at OUT2 or OUT3. The LDOs incur no damage if their outputs are pulled below ground. If an input is left open circuit or grounded, the corresponding output can be pulled below ground by 45V. No current flows through the pass transistor from the output. However, current flows in (but is limited by) the corresponding resistor divider that sets the output voltage. Current flows from the bottom resistor in the divider and from the FB2/FB3 pin’s internal clamp through the top resistor in the divider to the external circuitry pulling OUT2/OUT3 below ground. If the input is powered by a voltage source, the output sources cur -

3667fbFor more information www.linear .com/L T3667 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION The power dissipation of each LDO is comprised of two components. Each power device dissipates: PPASS = (VIN − VOUT) • IOUT where PPASS is the power, V IN the input voltage, V OUT the output voltage, and IOUT the output current. The base currents of the LDO power PNP transistors flow to ground internally and are the major component of the ground current. For each LDO, this causes a power dissipation PGND of: PGND = VIN • IGND where VIN is the input voltage and IGND the ground current generated by the corresponding power device. GND pin current is determined by the current gain of the power PNP, which has a typical value of 40 for the purpose of this calculation: IGND = IOUT The total power dissipation equals the sum of the power loss in the switching regulator and the two LDO compo- nents listed above. The LT3667 has internal thermal limiting that protects the device during overload conditions. If the junction temperature reaches the thermal shutdown threshold, the LT3667 will shut down the LDOs and stop switching to prevent internal damage due to overheating. For continuous normal conditions, do not exceed the maximum operat - ing junction temperature. Carefully consider all sources of thermal resistance from junction-to-ambient including other nearby heat sources. Both LT3667 packages have exposed pads that must be soldered to a ground plane to act as heat sink. To keep thermal resistance low, extend the ground plane as much as possible, and add thermal vias under and near the LT3667 to additional ground planes within the circuit board and on the bottom side. The die temperature rise is calculated by multiplying the power dissipation of the LT3667 by the thermal resistance from junction to ambient. Example: Given the front page application with maximum output current, an input voltage of 12V and a maximum ambient temperature of 85°C, what will the maximum junction temperature be? As can be seen from the Typical Performance Characteris- tics, the switching regulator efficiency approaches 85% at 400mA output current. This leads to a power loss, PLOSS, of: PLOSS = 5V • 400mA • 1 0.85 –1 = 353mW (For the sake of simplicity and as a conservative estimate assume that all of this power is dissipated in the LT3667.) The power dissipations of the LDO power devices are: PPASS2 = (5V − 2.5V) • 100mA = 250mW PPASS3 = (5V − 3.3V) • 100mA = 170mW For 100mA load current a maximum ground current of 2.5mA is to be expected. Thus, the corresponding power dissipations are: PGND2 = PGND3 = 5V • 2.5mA = 12.5mW Finally, the total power dissipation is: PTOT = PLOSS + PPASS2 + PPASS3 + PGND2 + PGND3 = 786mW Using the MSOP package, which has a thermal resistance of approximately 40°C/W, this total power dissipation would raise the junction temperature above ambient by: 0.786 W • 40°C/W = 32°C With the assumed maximum ambient temperature of 85°C, this puts the maximum junction temperature at: TJMAX = 85°C + 32°C = 117°C Other Linear Technology Publications 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 318 shows how to generate a bipolar output supply using a buck regulator.

3667fb For more information www.linear .com/L T3667 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS This application allows a small input current to support a high current pulsed load. The switching regulator is supplied by the LDO2 at OUT2, which is programmed to limit its current to 3.5mA. PG2 serves as “READY” signal to tell a controller (not shown) that C6 is charged to 17V, the regulation voltage of LDO2. It can then turn on a load drawing high current out of the switching regulator. Since LDO2 can only supply 3.5mA, this quickly discharges C6 and decreases VOUT2 (=VIN1). The switching regulator will maintain its programmed output voltage until V IN1 drops below the undervoltage lockout threshold of 5.5V set by R3 and R4. Pulsed Power Supply for 4mA to 20mA Current Loops. OUT2 Supplies the Switching Regulator, Which Is Kept Off at Lower Voltages by UVLO1 EN2/ILIM2 EN3/ILIM3GND EN L T3667 BOOST LDO2 Input SW DA FB1 IN3 PG2 BD OUT3 FB3
