APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
controller feedback loop. As a result, the loop crossover
frequency increases and it may cause the feedback loop
to be unstable if the phase margin is insuffi cient.
To overcome this problem, the LTC3831 monitors the
peak voltage of the ramp signal and adjust the oscillator
charging current to maintain a constant ramp peak.
Input Supply Considerations/Charge Pump
The LTC3831 requires four supply voltages to operate: V
for the main power input, PV
gate drive and a clean, low ripple V
internal circuitry (Figure 5).
In many applications, V
through an RC fi lter. This supply can be as low as 3V. The
low quiescent current (typically 800μA) allows the use
of relatively large fi lter resistors and correspondingly
small fi lter capacitors. 100Ω and 4.7μF usually provide
adequate fi ltering for V
the 4.7μF bypass capacitor as close to the LTC3831 V
pin as possible.
Gate drive for the top N-channel MOSFET Q1 is supplied
