LT3669/LT3669-2
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
to check that the LT3669 will be able to deliver the required
output current. Note again that these equations assume
that the inductor current is continuous. Discontinuous
operation occurs when IOUT is less than ΔIL/2.
Input Capacitor
Bypass the input of the LT3669 circuit with a ceramic ca-
pacitor of X7R or X5R type. Do not use Y5V types, which
have poor performance over temperature and applied
voltage. A 4.7μF ceramic capacitor is adequate to bypass
the LT3669 and will easily handle the ripple current. Note
that larger input capacitance is required when a lower
switching frequency is used. If the input power source has
high impedance, or there is significant inductance due to
long wires or cables, additional bulk capacitance may be
necessary. This can be provided with a lower performance
electrolytic capacitor.
Step-down regulators draw current from the input sup-
ply in pulses with very fast rise and fall times. The input
capacitor is required to reduce the resulting voltage
ripple at the LT3669 and to force this very high frequency
switching current into a tight local loop, minimizing EMI.
A 4.7μF capacitor is capable of this task, but only if it is
placed close to the LT3669 (see the PCB Layout section
for more information). A second precaution regarding
the ceramic input capacitor concerns the maximum input
voltage rating of the LT3669. A ceramic input capacitor
combined with trace or cable inductance forms a high-Q
(underdamped) tank circuit. If the LT3669 circuit is plugged
into a live supply, the input voltage can ring to twice its
nominal value, possibly exceeding the LT3669’s voltage
rating. For guidance see Application Note 88.
Output Capacitor and Output Ripple
The output capacitor has two essential functions. Along
with the inductor, it filters the square wave generated by
the LT3669 to produce the DC output. In this role, it de-
termines the output ripple. Additionally, low impedance at
the switching frequency is important. The second function
is to store energy needed to satisfy transient loads and
stabilize the LT3669’s control loop. Ceramic capacitors
have very low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and
provide the best ripple performance. A good starting
value is:
COUT
=
k
VOUT
fSW
(k = 17 in LT3669; k = 43 in LT3669-2)
where fSW is in MHz, and COUT is the recommended output
capacitance in μF. Use X5R or X7R types. This choice will
provide low output ripple and good transient response.
Transient performance can be improved with a higher
value capacitor if combined with a phase lead capacitor
(typically 22pF) between the output and the feedback pin
(FBOUT). A lower value of output capacitor can be used to
save space and cost but transient performance will suffer.
When choosing a capacitor, look carefully through the
data sheet to find out what the actual capacitance is under
operating conditions (applied voltage and temperature).
A physically larger capacitor, or one with a higher voltage
rating, may be required. High performance tantalum or
electrolytic capacitors can be used for the output capaci-
tor. Low ESR is important, so choose one that is intended
for use in switching regulators. The ESR should be 0.05Ω
or less. Such a capacitor will be larger than a ceramic
capacitor and will have a larger capacitance, because the
capacitor must be large to achieve low ESR.
LT3669-2 Diode Selection
The catch diode (D1 from the LT3669-2 Block Diagram)
conducts current only during the switch-off time. Average
forward current in normal operation is
ID(AVG) = IOUT • (1−DC)
where DC is the duty cycle. However, a diode with 1A cur-
rent rating is required for overload conditions. For inputs
up to the maximum operating voltage of 40V, use a diode
with a reverse-voltage rating greater than the input voltage.
If transients at the input of up to 60V are expected, use a
diode with a reverse-voltage rating only higher than the
maximum OVLO of 45V. If operating at high ambient tem-
peratures, consider using a Schottky with low reverse leak-
age. For example, Diodes, Inc. SBR1U40LP or DFLS160,
ON Semiconductor MBRM140, and Central Semiconductor
CMMSH1-60 are good choices for the catch diode.
