The LTC3560 is a high efficiency monolithic synchronous buck regulator using a constant frequency, current mode architecture. Supply current during operation is only 16µA, dropping to <1µA in shutdown. The 2.5V to 5.5V input voltage range makes the LTC3560 ideally suited for single Li-Ion/Li-Polymer battery-powered applications. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation, extending battery life in portable systems.Switching frequency is internally set at 2.25MHz, allowing the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors. For noise sensitive applications the LTC3560 can be externally synchronized from 1MHz to 3MHz. Burst Mode operation is inhibited during synchronization or when the SYNC/MODE pin is pulled high, 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 0.6V feedback reference voltage. The LTC3560 is available in a low profile (1mm) ThinSOT package.ApplicationsCellular TelephonesWireless and DSL ModemsDigital Still CamerasMedia PlayersPortable Instruments

The LTC3561 is a constant-frequency, synchronous, step-down DC/DC converter. Intended for medium power applications, it operates from a 2.63V to 5.5V input voltage range and has a user configurable operating frequency up to 4MHz, allowing the use of tiny, low cost capacitors and inductors 2mm or less in height. The output voltage is adjustable from 0.8V to 5V. Internal synchronous 0.11Ω power switches with 1.4A peak current ratings provide high efficiency. The LTC3561’s current mode architecture and external compensation allow the transient response to be optimized over a wide range of loads and output capacitors.To further maximize battery life, the P-channel MOSFET is turned on continuously in dropout (100% duty cycle). The no-load quiescent current is only 240µA. In shutdown, the device draws <1µA.ApplicationsWireless LAN PowerNotebook ComputersDigital CamerasCellular PhonesBoard Mounted Power Supplies

The LTC3567 is a highly integrated power management and battery charger IC for Li-Ion/Polymer battery applications. It includes a high efficiency current limited switching PowerPath manager with automatic load prioritization, a battery charger, an ideal diode, and a high efficiency synchronous buck-boost switching regulator. Designed specifically for USB applications, the LTC3567’s switching power manager automatically limits input current to a maximum of either 100mA or 500mA for USB or 1A for adapter-powered applications.The LTC3567’s switching input stage transmits nearly all of the 2.5W available from the USB port to the system load with minimal power wasted as heat. This feature allows the LTC3567 to provide more power to the application and eases thermal budgeting constraints in small spaces.The synchronous buck-boost DC/DC can provide up to 1A output current.The LTC3567 is available in a low profile 24-pin (4mm × 4mm × 0.75mm) QFN surface mount package.ApplicationsHDD Based MP3 Players, PDA, GPS, PMP ProductsOther USB Based Handheld Products
