DC2011A - LT8613EUDE Demo Board | Sync Buck, 5.8V ≤ VIN ≤ 42V, Vout = 5V @ 6A

Demonstration Circuit 2011A is a 42V, 6A micropower synchronous step-down regulator with current sense featuring the LT®8613. The demo board is designed for 5V output from a 5.8V to 42V input. The wide input range allows a variety of input sources, such as automotive batteries and industrial supplies. The LT8613 is a compact, high efficiency, and high speed synchronous monolithic step-down switching regulator. The integrated power switches and inclusion of all necessary circuitry reduce the components count and solution size. Ultralow 3μA quiescent current in Burst Mode® operation achieves high efficiency at very light loads. Fast minimum on-time of 40ns enables high V_IN to low V_OUT conversion at high frequency.
