The LTC®3713 is a high current, high efficiency synchronous buck switching regulator controller optimized for
use with very low input supply voltages. It operates from
inputs as low as 1.5V and provides a regulated output
voltage from 0.8V up to (0.9)VIN. The controller uses
a valley current control architecture to enable high operating frequencies without requiring a sense resistor.
Operating frequency is selected by an external resistor and
is compensated for variations in VIN and V
. The LTC3713
OUT
uses a pair of standard 5V logic-level N-channel external
MOSFETs, eliminating the need for expensive P-channel
or low threshold devices.
Discontinuous mode operation provides high efficiency
operation at light loads. A forced continuous control
pin reduces noise and RF interference, and can assist
secondary winding regulation by disabling discontinuous
operation when the main output is lightly loaded. Fault
protection is provided by internal foldback current limiting, an output overvoltage comparator and an optional
short-circuit shutdown timer.

RUN/SS (Pin 1): Run Control and Soft-Start Input. A
capacitor to ground at this pin sets the ramp time to full
output current (approximately 3s/µF) and the time delay
for overcurrent latchoff (see Applications Information).
Forcing this pin below 0.8V shuts down the device.
VON (Pin 2): On-Time Voltage Input. Voltage trip point for
the on-time comparator. Tying this pin to the output
voltage makes the on-time proportional to V
comparator input defaults to 0.7V when the pin is grounded,
2.4V when the pin is tied to INTVCC.
PGOOD (Pin 3): Power Good Output. Open-drain logic
output that is pulled to ground when the output voltage is
not within ±7.5% of the regulation point.
V
(Pin 4): Sense Voltage Range Input. The voltage at
RNG
this pin is ten times the nominal sense voltage at maximum output current and can be set from 0.5V to 2V by a
resistive divider from INTVCC. The nominal sense voltage
defaults to 70mV when this pin is tied to ground, 140mV
when tied to INTVCC.
FCB (Pin 5): Forced Continuous Input. Tie this pin to
ground to force continuous synchronous operation at low
load, to INTVCC to enable discontinuous mode operation
at low load or to a resistive divider from a secondary output
when using a secondary winding.
I
(Pin 6): Current Control Threshold and Error Amplifier
TH
Compensation Point. The current comparator threshold
increases with this control voltage. The voltage ranges
from 0V to 2.4V with 0.8V corresponding to zero sense
voltage (zero current).
SGND (Pins 7, 11): Signal Ground. All small-signal components and compensation components should connect to
this ground, which in turn connects to PGND at one point.
ION (Pin 8): On-Time Current Input. Tie a resistor from V
to this pin to set the one-shot timer current and thereby set
the switching frequency.
V
(Pin 9): Error Amplifier Feedback Input. This pin
FB1
connects the error amplifier input to an external resistive
divider from V
SHDN (Pin 10): Shutdown, Active Low. Tie to 1V or more
to enable boost converter portion of the LTC3713. Ground
to shut down.

V

V
SW2 (Pin 13): Boost Converter Switch Pin. Connect
inductor/diode for boost converter portion here. Minimize
trace area at this pin to keep EMI down.
PGND (Pins 14, 19): Power Ground. Connect these pins
closely to the source of the bottom N-channel MOSFET,
the (–) terminal of C

Portion of LTC3713. Must be locally bypassed.
V
IN1
PGND with an RC filter (1Ω, 0.1µF).INTVCC (Pin 17): Internal Regulator Output. The driver and
control circuits are powered from this voltage. Decouple
this pin to power ground with a minimum of 4.7µF low ESR
tantalum or ceramic capacitor.
BG (Pin 18): Bottom Gate Drive. Drives the gate of the
bottom N-channel MOSFET between ground and INTVCC.
SENSE– (Pin 20): Negative Current Sense Comparator
Input. The (–) input to the current comparator is normally
connected to power ground unless using a resistive divider from INTVCC (see Applications Information).
SENSE+ (Pin 21): Positive Current Sense Comparator
Input. The (+) input to the current comparator is normally
connected to the SW1 node unless using a sense resistor
(see Applications Information).
SW1 (Pin 22): Switch Node. The (–) terminal of the
bootstrap capacitor CB connects here. This pin swings
from a diode voltage drop below ground up to VIN.
TG (Pin 23): Top Gate Drive. Drives the top N-channel
MOSFET with a voltage swing equal to INTVCC superimposed on the switch node voltage SW1.
BOOST (Pin 24): Boosted Floating Driver Supply. The (+)
terminal of the bootstrap capacitor CB connects here. This
pin swings from a diode voltage drop below INTVCC up to
V
IN
= 1.23V(1 + RF4/RF3)

and the (–) terminal of CIN.
