Selectable Continuous, Pulse-Skipping or Low Ripple
Burst Mode® Operation at Light Loads
A constant frequency current mode architecture allows a
phase-lockable frequency of up to 850kHz. The low 40μA
no-load quiescent current extends operating run time in
battery-powered systems. OPTI-LOOP® compensation
allows the transient response to be optimized over a
wide range of output capacitance and ESR values. The
LTC3896 features a precision 0.8V reference and power
good output indicator. The soft-start (SS) pin ramps the
output voltage during start-up.
