APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
In 1-to-1 mode, switch S1 and S2 are connected in series
between V
regulation (see Figure 1c). The REG ENABLE signal from
the main comparator (COMP1) controls switches S1 and
S2 directly. Since all of the V

Mode Selection and Mode Skipping
The optimal step-down conversion mode is chosen based
on V
tions. Two internal comparators are used to select the
default step-down mode based on the V
voltage. A separate comparator (COMP2) is used to sense
a droop on V
charge pump to skip to a higher output current mode to

a 3-to-2 or 1-to-1 transition point. For example, under light
load conditions, the LTC1503-X can operate in 2-to-1
mode when V
ciency. However, when the load is increased, the part can
no longer supply enough output current in 2-to-1 mode to
maintain regulation. This causes V
regulation point until COMP2 trips and forces the part to
skip from 2-to-1 mode to 3-to-2 mode. The COMP2
threshold is about 17mV (V
comparator regulation point. Hysteresis in COMP2 will
force the part to transition in and out of mode skipping.
This will result in a slight V
20mV under mode skipping conditions.
Shutdown/Soft-Start Operation
The SHDN/SS pin is used to implement both low current
shutdown and soft-start. The soft-start feature limits
inrush currents when the regulator is initially powered up
or taken out of shutdown. Forcing a voltage lower than
0.35V (typ) will put the part into shutdown mode. Shut-
down mode disables all control circuitry and forces the
charge pump V
up current on the SHDN/SS pin will force the part into
active mode if the pin is left floating or is driven with an
open-drain output that is in a high impedance state. If the
pin is not driven with an open-drain device, it must be
forced to a logic high voltage of 2.2V (min) to ensure
proper V
driven to a voltage higher than V
To implement soft-start, the SHDN/SS pin must be driven
with an open-drain device and a capacitor must be
connected from the SHDN/SS pin to GND. Once the open-
drain device is turned off, a 2 A pull-up current will begin
charging the external SS capacitor and force the voltage
on the pin to ramp towards V

voltage which controls the V
