LTC3838-1: High Efficiency Step-Down DC/DC Converter with Rsense Current Sensing
The LTC3838-1 is a dual-channel, PolyPhase synchronous step-down DC/DC switching regulator controller. Two independent channels drive all N-channel power MOSFETs. The controlled on-time, valley current mode control architecture allows for not only fast response to transients without clock delay, but also constant frequency switching at steady load condition. Its proprietary loadrelease transient detection feature (DTR) significantly reduces overshoot at low output voltages.
