LT3592
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
their maximum voltage capability. If a capacitor with a
lower voltage rating is found to not be stable in a design,
it will often result in a smaller solution to choose a larger
capacitor value of the same voltage rating than to choose
one of the same capacitance and higher voltage rating. For
example, a 10μF , 10V ceramic capacitor might be smaller
than a 4.7μF , 16V part, if a 4.7μF , 10V capacitor is found
to not be adequate in a given application. The LT3592HV
can tolerate sustained output voltages of up to 25V. For
output voltages above 12V, use an external Schottky diode
for the boost circuit with the anode tied to CAP and the
cathode tied to BOOST (as shown in Figure 13).
Transient Performance with Voltage Control Loop
The voltage control loop transient characteristics are similar
to, but not identical to the current control loop. Figure 12
shows the transient for a 12V input application running at
20

900kHz with a 6.8μH inductor and a 4.7μF ceramic output
capacitor. The LT3592 is in BRIGHT (500mA) mode but
the current load is switched from 50mA to 450mA and
back, so the current control loop is not active for either
current level and the output voltage is regulated through
the resistive voltage divider to the FB pin.

Application Notes AN19, AN35, and AN44 contain more
detailed descriptions and design information for Step-down
regulators and other switching regulators. The LT1376 data
sheet has an extensive discussion of output ripple, loop
compensation, and stability testing. Design Note DN100
shows how to generate a bipolar output supply using a
Step-down regulator.
