DescripTion
TheLTC®3895isahighperformancestep-downswitching
regulator DC/DC controller that drives an all N-channel
synchronous power MOSFET stage that can operate from
input voltages up to 140V. A constant frequency current
mode architecture allows a phase-lockable frequency of
up to 850kHz.

No External Bootstrap Diode Required
Selectable Gate Drive UVLO Thresholds
Onboard LDO or External NMOS LDO for DRV
The gate drivevoltage can beprogrammed from 5V to10V
to allow the use of logic or standard-level FETs to maxi-
mize efficiency. An integrated switch in the top gate driver
eliminates the need for an external bootstrap diode. An
internalchargepumpallowsfor100%dutycycleoperation.
