APPLICATIONS INFORMATION FB Resistor Network
where VIN is the typical input voltage, VOUT is the output voltage, V The output voltage is programmed with a resistor divider D is the catch diode drop (~0.5V) and VSW is the internal switch drop (~0.5V at max load). This equation between the output and the FB pin. Choose the 1% resis- shows that slower switching frequency is necessary to tors according to: safely accommodate high VIN/VOUT ratio. Also, as shown V in the next section, lower frequency allows a lower dropout R1= R2 OUT – 1 0.79V voltage. The reason input voltage range depends on the switching frequency is because the LT1913 switch has fi nite Reference designators refer to the Block Diagram. minimum on and off times. The switch can turn on for a minimum of ~150ns and turn off for a minimum of ~150ns.
Setting the Switching Frequency
Typical minimum on time at 25°C is 80ns. This means that The LT1913 uses a constant frequency PWM architecture the minimum and maximum duty cycles are: that can be programmed to switch from 200kHz to 2.4MHz DC t MIN = fSW ON MIN ( ) by using a resistor tied from the RT pin to ground. A table showing the necessary RT value for a desired switching DC t MAX = 1– fSW OFF MIN ( ) frequency is in Figure 1. where fSW is the switching frequency, the tON(MIN) is the

Operating Frequency Tradeoffs
overload conditions, the switching frequency should be Selection of the operating frequency is a tradeoff between chosen according to the following equation: effi ciency, component size, minimum dropout voltage, and V maximum input voltage. The advantage of high frequency V OUT + VD – V IN MAX ( ) = D + VSW operation is that smaller inductor and capacitor values may f t SW ON MIN ( ) be used. The disadvantages are lower effi ciency, lower maximum input voltage, and higher dropout voltage. The where VIN(MAX) is the maximum operating input voltage, highest acceptable switching frequency (f V SW(MAX)) for a OUT is the output voltage, VD is the catch diode drop given application can be calculated as follows: (~0.5V), VSW is the internal switch drop (~0.5V at max load), f V SW is the switching frequency (set by RT), and f D + VOUT tON(MIN) is the minimum switch on time (~100ns). Note that SW MAX ( ) = t – V ( SW ) a higher switching frequency will depress the maximum ON MIN ( ) VD + VIN 1913f 10
