OPERATION
The LTC3557 can be used above 20°C, but the charge
current will be reduced below 1A. The charge current at
a given ambient temperature can be approximated by:
Thus:
Consider the above example with an ambient temperature
of 55°C. The charge current will be reduced to approxi-

If an external buck switching regulator controlled by the
LTC3577 V
a signifi cant reduction in power dissipated by the LTC3577.
This is because the external buck switching regulator will

battery at 3.3V. If you go through the example above and
substitute 3.6V for V
does not kick in until about 83°C. Thus, the external high
voltage buck regulator not only allows higher charging
currents, but lower power dissipation means a cooler
running application.
Printed Circuit Board Layout
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
list should be followed to ensure proper operation of the
LTC3577:
1. The Exposed Pad of the package (Pin 45) should connect
directly to a large ground plane to minimize thermal and
electrical impedance.

to reduce radiated EMI and parasitic coupling. Due to
the large voltage swing of the switching nodes, sensitive
nodes such as the feedback nodes (FBx, LDOx_FB and

switching nodes or poor performance could result.
