APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OVERVIEW
The LTC1504A is a complete synchronous switching
regulator controller (see Block Diagram). It includes two
on-chip 1.3Ω power MOSFETs, eliminating the need for
external power devices and minimizing external parts
count. The internal switches are set up as a synchronous
buck converter with a P-channel device (Q1) from the
input supply to the switching node and an N-channel
device (Q2) as the synchronous rectifier device from the
switching node to ground. An external inductor, input and
