APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
LT3470
(Figure 2b). The circuit in Figure 2a is more efficient
because the BOOST pin current and BIAS pin quiescent
current comes from a lower voltage source. You must also
be sure that the maximum voltage ratings of the BOOST
and BIAS pins are not exceeded.
The minimum operating voltage of an LT3470 application
is limited by the undervoltage lockout (4V) and by the
maximum duty cycle as outlined in a previous section. For
proper start-up, the minimum input voltage is also limited
by the boost circuit. If the input voltage is ramped slowly,
or the LT3470 is turned on with its SHDN pin when the
output is already in regulation, then the boost capacitor
may not be fully charged. The plots in Figure 3 show

minimum V
inductor current becomes discontinuous and the effective
duty cycle can be very high. This reduces the minimum
input voltage to approximately 300mV above V
higher load currents, the inductor current is continuous
and the duty cycle is limited by the maximum duty cycle of
the LT3470, requiring a higher input voltage to maintain
regulation.
Shorted Input Protection
If the inductor is chosen so that it won’t saturate exces-
sively at the top switch current limit maximum of 450mA,
an LT3470 buck regulator will tolerate a shorted output
even if V
systems where the output will be held high when the input
to the LT3470 is absent. This may occur in battery charg-
ing applications or in battery backup systems where a
battery or some other supply is diode OR-ed with the
LT3470’s output. If the V
SHDN pin is held high (either by a logic signal or because
it is tied to V
pull its quiescent current through its SW pin. This is fine
if your system can tolerate a few mA in this state. If you
ground the SHDN pin, the SW pin current will drop to
essentially zero. However, if the V
the output is held high, then parasitic diodes inside the
LT3470 can pull large currents from the output through
the SW pin and the V
will run only when the input voltage is present and that
protects against a shorted or reversed input.
