ADI LTC3856EUH#PBF

The LTC3856 is a single output, dual channel PolyPhase synchronous step-down DC/DC controller that drives all N-channel power MOSFET stages. This device includes a high speed differential amplifier for remote output voltage sense. Power loss and supply noise are minimized by operating the two controller output stages out-of-phase and up to 12-phase operation can be achieved. The LTC3856 monitors the output current by sensing the voltage drop across the output inductor (DCR) or by using a sense resistor. DCR temperature compensation maintains an accurate current sense threshold over a broad temperature range. A constant-frequency, current mode architecture allows a phase-lockable frequency of up to 770kHz. A wide 4.5V to 38V input supply range encompasses most intermediate bus voltages and battery chemistries. Burst Mode operation, continuous or Stage Shedding modes are supported. A TK/SS pin shared by both channels ramps the output voltage during start-up.
