APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

FB Resistor Network

The output voltage is programmed with a resistor divider

between the output and the FB pin. Choose the 1% resis-

Setting the Switching Frequency

The LT3684 uses a constant frequency PWM architecture

that can be programmed to switch from 300kHz to 2.8MHz

by using a resistor tied from the RT pin to ground. A table

showing the necessary RT value for a desired switching

frequency is in Figure 1.

Operating Frequency Tradeoffs

Selection of the operating frequency is a tradeoff between

efficiency, component size, minimum dropout voltage, and

maximum input voltage. The advantage of high frequency

operation is that smaller inductor and capacitor values may

be used. The disadvantages are lower efficiency, lower

maximum input voltage, and higher dropout voltage. The

highest acceptable switching frequency (fSW(MAX)) for a

given application can be calculated as follows:

( ) fSW(MAX)

=

VD +

tON(MIN) VD

VOUT

+ VIN

–

VSW

where VIN is the typical input voltage, VOUT is the output

voltage, is the catch diode drop (~0.5V), VSW is the internal

switch drop (~0.5V at max load). This equation shows

that slower switching frequency is necessary to safely

accommodate high VIN/VOUT ratio. Also, as shown in

the next section, lower frequency allows a lower dropout

voltage. The reason input voltage range depends on the

switching frequency is because the LT3684 switch has

finite minimum on and off times. The switch can turn on

for a minimum of ~150ns and turn off for a minimum of

~150ns. This means that the minimum and maximum

duty cycles are:

DCMIN = fSWtON(MIN)

DCMAX = 1– fSWtOFF(MIN)

where fSW is the switching frequency, the tON(MIN) is the

minimum switch on time (~150ns), and the tOFF(MIN) is

the minimum switch off time (~150ns). These equations

show that duty cycle range increases when switching

frequency is decreased.

A good choice of switching frequency should allow ad-

equate input voltage range (see next section) and keep

the inductor and capacitor values small.

Input Voltage Range

The maximum input voltage for LT3684 applications de-

pends on switching frequency, the Absolute Maximum Rat-

ings on VIN and BOOST pins, and on operating mode.

If the output is in start-up or short-circuit operating modes,

then VIN must be below 34V and below the result of the

following equation:

VIN(MAX)

VOUT + VD

where VIN(MAX) is the maximum operating input voltage,

VOUT is the output voltage, VD is the catch diode drop

(~0.5V), VSW is the internal switch drop (~0.5V at max

load), fSW is the switching frequency (set by RT), and

tON(MIN) is the minimum switch on time (~150ns). Note that

a higher switching frequency will depress the maximum

operating input voltage. Conversely, a lower switching
