BLOCK DIAGRA
The current fed system will have 90 phase shift at a much
lower frequency, but will not have the additional 90 shift
until well beyond the LC resonant frequency. This makes
it much easier to frequency compensate the feedback loop
and also gives much quicker transient response.
Most of the circuitry of the LT1766 operates from an
internal 2.9V bias line. The bias regulator normally draws
power from the regulator input pin, but if the BIAS pin is
connected to an external voltage higher than 3V, bias
power will be drawn from the external source (typically the

regulated output voltage). This will improve efficiency if
the BIAS pin voltage is lower than regulator input voltage.
High switch efficiency is attained by using the BOOST pin
to provide a voltage to the switch driver which is higher
than the input voltage, allowing switch to be saturated.
This boosted voltage is generated with an external
capacitor and diode. Two comparators are connected to
the shutdown pin. One has a 2.38V threshold for under-
voltage lockout and the second has a 0.4V threshold for
complete shutdown.
