Input supplies as low as 2.7V, when doubled by the charge pump, provide 5V to the LTC3852’s control logic and gate drives, supporting a wide selection of logic-level N-channel power MOSFETs. The constant-frequency current mode architecture allows for a phase-lockable fixed frequency of up to 750k Hz. The RUN pin provides a precision enable threshold while the TRACK/SS pin bines tracking and adjustable soft-start Features . The MODE/PLLIN pin selects among Burst Mode® operation, pulse-skipping mode, and continuous current mode. Current foldback limits MOSFET power dissipation during short-circuit conditions. Reverse current and current foldback functions are disabled during soft-start. A power good output pin indicates when the output is within ±10% of its designed set point.
