Description
Demonstration Circuit 1883A features the LTC
efficiency, monolithic synchronous step-down converter
using a current mode architecture capable of supplying
300mA of output current. The IC operates with a fixed
frequency oscillator at 1.2MHz.
The LTC3103 has two user selectable (JP2) operating
modes: Burst Mode
operation (fixed frequency PWM). The IC has internal
compensation and an accurate programmable RUN pin.
The LTC3103 operates with a 2.5V to 15V input voltage
range. The demo board has been designed with a main
output set to 1.8V. Since the LTC3103 is a buck converter,
