LTM4601/LTM4601-1
Solution
Lower the switching frequency at lower input voltages to
allow for higher duty cycles, and meet the 400ns mini-
mum off-time at 4.5V input voltage. The off-time should
be about 500ns with 100ns guard band. The duty cycle
for (3.3V/4.5) = ~73%. Frequency = (1 – DC)/t
(1 – 0.73)/500ns = 540kHz. The switching frequency needs
to be lowered to 540kHz at 4.5V input. t

current to 24μA. This enables the 540kHz operation and
the 4.5V to 20V input operation for down converting to
3.3V output. The frequency will scale from 540kHz to 1.1
MHz over this input range. This provides for an effective
output current of 8A over the input range.
