LT3493
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
FB Resistor Network
The output voltage is programmed with a resistor divider
between the output and the FB pin. Choose the 1% resis-
tors according to:
R2 should be 20k or less to avoid bias current errors.
Reference designators refer to the Block Diagram.
An optional phase lead capacitor of 22pF between V
and FB reduces light-load output ripple.
Input Voltage Range
The input voltage range for LT3493 applications depends
on the output voltage and on the absolute maximum rat-
ings of the V
The minimum input voltage is determined by either the
LT3493’s minimum operating voltage of 3.6V, or by its
maximum duty cycle. The duty cycle is the fraction of
time that the internal switch is on and is determined by
the input and output voltages:
where V
(~0.4V) and V
(~0.4V at maximum load). This leads to a minimum input
voltage of:
with DC
The maximum input voltage is determined by the absolute
maximum ratings of the V
tinuous mode operation, the maximum input voltage is
determined by the minimum duty cycle DC
Note that this is a restriction on the operating input voltage
for continuous mode operation; the circuit will tolerate
transient inputs up to the absolute maximum ratings

Minimum On Time
The part will still regulate the output at input voltages that
exceed V
ripple increases as the input voltage is increased. Figure 1
illustrates switching waveforms in continuous mode for a
3V output application near V
As the input voltage is increased, the part is required
to switch for shorter periods of time. Delays associated
with turning off the power switch dictate the minimum
on time of the part. The minimum on time for the LT3493
is ~120ns. Figure 2 illustrates the switching waveforms
when the input voltage is increased to V
