Triple step-down switching regulator with 100% duty cycle operation

Description
Demonstration circuit 1980A is a triple current mode PWM
step-down DC/DC converter featuring the
demo circuit is designed for 5V, 3.3V and 1.8V outputs
from a 5.4V to 36V input. The current capability of 5V
and 1.8V outputs is 1A and the 3.3V output is capable of
2A output. Individual soft-start and current limit for each
output as well as frequency synchronous function simplify
the complex design of triple-output power converters.
Each converter is synchronized to either a common ex-
ternal clock input or a resistor programmable 250kHz to
2.2MHz internal oscillator. Programmable frequency allows
optimization between efficiency and external component
size. Each output can be independently disabled using its
own RUN/SS pin.
The LT3514 data sheet gives complete description of the
device, operation and application information. The data
sheet must be read in conjunction with this quick start
guide for the demo circuit 1980A.
