About this manual

The LTC3448 is a monolithic synchronous buck regulator that operates with a constant‑frequency, current‑mode architecture. It delivers up to 600 mA output current, supports 2.5 V‑5.5 V input, and can switch to a low‑dropout linear regulator mode for light loads.

Key features include up to 96 % efficiency, a quiescent supply current of 32 µA in linear mode, shutdown current below 1 pA, and selectable 1.5 MHz or 2.25 MHz switching frequencies. The device is offered in a low‑profile 8‑lead DFN or MSOP package.
