ADI LTC3634MPFE#TRPBF

The LTC3634 is a high efficiency, dual-channel monolithic synchronous step-down regulator which provides power supply and bus termination rails for DDR1, DDR2, and DDR3 SDRAM controllers. The operating input voltage range is 3.6 to 15, making it suitable for point-of-load power supply applications from a 5V or 12V input, as well as various battery powered systems. The VΠ regulated output voltage is equal to VDDQIN•0.5. An on-chip buffer capable of driving a 10mA load provides a low noise reference output (VTTR) also equal to VDDQIN•0.5. The operating frequency is programmable and synchronizable from 500kHz to 4MHz with an external resistor. The two channels can operate 180° out-of-phase, which relaxes the requirements for input and output capacitance. The unique controlled on-time architecture is ideal for powering DDR applications from a 12 supply at high switching frequencies, allowing the use of smaller external components. The LTC3634 is offered in both 28-pin 4mm×5mm QFN and 28-pin exposed pad TSSOP packages.
