The LT3991IMSE-3.3#TRPBF is a high-efficiency, low noise 3.3V, 1A buck (step-down) switching regulator. Part of the Linear Technology family of chip, it belongs to the Power Management ICs (PMICs), with particular application in DC-DC switching regulators. This article will discuss the application field, and working principle, of the device.

Application Field

The LT3991IMSE-3.3#TRPBF\'s main application lies in the consumer electronics, automotive, computer and industrial fields. Examples of products the device can be used for include laptop computers, consumer electronic cameras, and industrial tools. The device excels at low noise operation, and is highly suitable for low quiescent current applications, where it provides a high-efficiency solution with a very small external component count. It can operate from a wide input voltage range from 2.5V up to 10V.

Working Principle

At the heart of LT3991IMSE-3.3#TRPBF lies a buck synchronous DC-DC converter with a switching frequency of 1MHz. The device itself is a "non-isolated" DC-DC regulator, meaning that there is no galvanic isolation between the input and output stages. This device has both low "on-state" resistance (R_on) and low "off-state" leakage current (I_off) characteristics. The on-state resistance is determined by the size of the internal switches, while the off-state leakage is largely due to the controller based design.

The LT3991IMSE-3.3#TRPBF’s output voltage is adjustable from 0.8V to its input voltage. Its operating power supply is divided into two stages. The first stage is the power rail, which is to provide the power supply to the internal "power conditional" circuitry, while the second stage becomes the output rail or load. The output load is regulated by the internal MOSFET switch, which is turned on and off by the control logic. The control logic adjusts the on/off time of the switch according to the output voltage to achieve its regulated value.

A Load Line loop is included for better stability and regulation. In the event of a short circuit occurrence, the device will shut off the output voltage. The device is configured to enter skip mode at light loads as well, allowing for a more efficient operation.

In summary, the LT3991IMSE-3.3#TRPBF is a highly efficient, low noise, DC-DC switching regulator with particular application in the consumer electronics, automotive, computer, and industrial fields. It can regulation an output voltage from 0.8V to the input voltage, and operates over a wide 2.5V to 10V input high voltage range. This device provides a highly reliable solution, as well as high noise immunity and low power consumption, thanks to its low static power dissipation. It also has a load line loop to prevent current overloads, as well as a skip mode operation for light load.
