About this manual

The LTC3707 controller drives two N‑channel synchronous MOSFETs to provide dual 5 V/3.3 V step‑down conversion. It features 180° phased dual controllers, low‑dropout operation, and programmable frequency from 150 kHz to 300 kHz. OPTI‑LOOP® compensation and a power‑good output monitor improve accuracy and stability.

Typical applications include notebook and palmtop computers, battery chargers, portable instruments, and DC power distribution systems. The device is supplied in a 28‑lead narrow SSOP package and includes pins for soft‑start, run control, current limiting, and remote voltage sensing.
