The LTC3810-5 is a synchronous step-down switching regulator controller that can directly step-down voltages from up to 60V, making it ideal for telecom and automotive applications. The LTC3810-5 uses a constant on-time valley current control architecture to deliver very low duty cycles with accurate cycle-by-cycle current limit, without requiring a sense resistor.A precise internal reference provides 0.5% DC accuracy. A high bandwidth (25MHz) error amplifier provides very fast line and load transient response. Large 1O gate drivers allow the LTC3810-5 to drive multiple MOSFETs for higher current applications. The operating frequency is selected by an external resistor and is compensated for variations in VINand can also be synchronized to an external clock for switching-noise sensitive applications. A shutdown pin allows the LTC3810-5 to be turned off, reducing the supply current to 240µA.Integrated bias control generates gate drive power from the input supply during start-up or when an output shortcircuit occurs, with the addition of a small external SOT23 MOSFET. When in regulation, power is derived from the output for higher efficiency.FeaturesAdj.
