SeriesPT7706
The PT7706 is a new series of
high-performance, 18 Amp Integrated
Switching Regulators (ISRs) housed in
a 27-pin SIP package. The 18A
capability allows easy integration of the
latest high-speed, low-voltage µPs,
DSPs, ASICs, and bus drivers into
existing 3.3V systems.
The PT7706 series has been
designed to work in parallel with one
or more of the PT7749 - 18A current
boosters for increased I
out
in increments
of 18A.
The output voltage of the PT7706
can be easily programmed with a 4 bit
input compatible with Intel’s Pentium
II Processor. A differential remote sense
is also provided which automatically
compensates for any voltage drop from
the ISR to the load.
1200µF of output capacitance are
required for proper operation.

* ISR-will operate down to no load with reduced specifications. Please note that this product is not short-circuit protected.
**The PT7706 series can be easily paralleled with one or more of the PT7749 Current Boosters to provide increased output current in increments of 18A.
*** The minimum input voltage is 3.1V or V

+1.2V, whichever is greater. ****See SOA curves.
Output Capacitors:
The PT7706 series requires a minimum ouput capacitance of 1200µF for proper operation. Do not use Oscon type capacitors. The maximum
allowable output capacitance is 15,000µF.
Input Filter:
An input filter is optional for most applications. The input inductor must be sized to handle 18ADC with a typical value of 1µH. The input capacitance must be
rated for a minimum of 1.3Arms of ripple current. For transient or dynamic load applications, additional capacitance may be required.
