Linear Technology
DESCRIPTION
The LTC®3564 is a high efficiency monolithic synchronous buck regulator using a constant frequency, current mode architecture. Supply current during operation is only 20μA, dropping to ≤1μA in shutdown. The 2.5V to 5.5V input voltage range makes the LTC3564 ideally suited for single Li-Ion battery-powered or 3.3V to 5V input voltage applications. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation, extending battery life in portable systems. Automatic Burst Mode® operation increases efficiency at light loads, further extending battery runtime.
