OPERATING PRINCIPLES
The LTC3672BEDC-2 is a monolithic fixed output,
400mA, synchronous buck regulator and two 150mA
LDOS.
VOUT1 is driven by a high efficiency synchronous buck
regulator with a fixed output of 1.2V. The buck regulator
on the LTC3672BEDC-2 operates at approximately
2.25MHz, allowing the use of small inductors and
capacitors.
The two fixed output LDOs, have a maximum dropout
voltage of 250mV, over process and temperature. This
allows all three outputs to remain in regulation with VIN
as low as 2.98V.
All of the regulators on the LTC3672BEDC-2 are enabled
via the ENALL pin, controlled by JP1.
