APPLICATIONS
Operation
The LTC1517-3.3 uses a switched-capacitor charge pump
to boost V
achieves regulation by sensing the output voltage through
an internal resistor divider and enabling the charge pump
when the divided output droops below the comparator’s
lower trip point (set by V
enabled, a 2-phase nonoverlapping clock controls the
internal charge pump switches. Flying capacitor C1 is
charged to V
the clock, C1 is stacked in series with V
to V
charging and discharging the flying capacitor occurs at a
free running frequency of 700kHz (typ) and continues until
the divided output voltage reaches the upper trip point of
the comparator. Once the output is back in regulation, the
charge pump is disabled. This method of bursting the
charge pump on and off enables the LTC1517-3.3 to
achieve high efficiency at extremely low output loads.
Capacitor Selection
For best performance, it is recommended that low ESR
capacitors be used for both C
and ripple. The C
ceramic or tantalum and should be 3.3 F or greater.
Ceramic capacitors will provide the smallest size for a
given capacitance. If the input source impedance is very
low (< 0.5 ), C
are recommended for the flying capacitor C1 with values
of 0.1 F or 0.22 F. Smaller value flying capacitors may be
used in low I

Output Ripple
Normal LTC1517-3.3 operation produces voltage ripple
on the V
parts to regulate. Low frequency ripple exists due to the
hysteresis in the sense comparator and propagation de-
lays in the charge pump enable/disable circuits. High
frequency ripple is also present mainly from the ESR
(equivalent series resistance) in the output capacitor.
Typical output ripple with V
is 75mV peak-to-peak with a low ESR 3.3 F output capaci-
tor (minimum recommended C
requiring V
less than 75mV of peak-to-peak ripple, a 6.8 F to 10 F
C
in output ripple can be achieved by using C
larger than 10 F.
Short-Circuit/Thermal Protection
During short-circuit conditions, the LTC1517-3.3 will draw
between 20mA and 150mA from V
junction temperature. On-chip thermal shutdown circuitry
disables the charge pump once the junction temperature
exceeds approximately 160 C. The charge pump is
reenabled once the junction temperature drops to approxi-
mately 145 C. The LTC1517-3.3 will cycle in and out of
thermal shutdown indefinitely without latchup or damage
until the V
