Maximum duty cycle

Category: Hardware
Product Number: LTM8060

Hi,

May I know the maximum possible duty cycle for the LTM8060 device?

I couldn't find any specific numbers in the datasheet, but I did find a dropout plot. Can I use the dropout plots to determine my input voltage and output voltage? My intention is to operate the device at or around a 0.6V dropout (e.g., Vin = 3.2V, Vout = 2.6V, with an efficiency of around 90%) . This design requires around 90% Duty cycle, Will this be possible? 


  • Add to the question above,
    The application information shows that a minimum input of 4.2V is required for a 2.5V output. I would like to know on what basis this recommendation has been made. Is this negotiable with respect to any other parameters such as load current, frequency  etc.
