LTC7130 High Efficiency, Dual Phase Very Low DCR Sensing 1.2V/40A Step-Down Supply

The LTC®7130 is a current mode synchronous step-down monolithic converter that can deliver up to 20A continuous load current. It employs a unique architecture which enhances the signal-to-noise ratio of the current sense signal, allowing the use of a very low DC resistance power inductor to maximize efficiency in high current applications. This feature also reduces the switching jitter commonly found in low DCR applications. The LTC7130 also includes a high speed differential remote sense amplifier and a programmable current sense limit that can be selected from 10mV to 30mV to set the output current limit up to 20A. In addition, the DCR temperature compensation feature limits the maximum output current precisely over temperature.
