Low Voltage Power Supplies

Robert Dobkin - Chief Technical Officer Jun 9th 2016
In this video, Linear Technology Co-founder and CTO Bob Dobkin discusses low voltage power supplies less than half a volt. Most of today's power supplies have a reference of 0.6 volts, which means the output voltage must be greater than 0.6 volts. Several years ago, Linear Technology pioneered a new type of current source ...

LTC3895 150VIN, Synchronous Step-Down Controller with 40μA Iq - Video Product Brief

Bruce Haug - Product Marketing Engineer May 16th 2016
  The LTC®3895 is a high performance step-down switching regulator DC/DC controller that drives an all N-channel synchronous power MOSFET stage that can operate from input voltages up to 140V (150V abs max). A constant frequency current mode architecture allows a phase-lockable frequency of up to 850kHz. The ...

60V, 4A Monolithic Buck Regulator w/ Rail-to-Rail Programmable Output and Integrated Current Monitoring

Steve Zhou - Senior Design Engineer Apr 12th 2016
The LTC3649 step-down regulator combines key features of a high voltage buck regulator with a complete feature set that allows for ease of use in a variety of applications.  The output voltage can be programmed with one resistor from ISET to GND, or it can be programmed directly with a voltage on the ISET pin.  The ...

LTC3892/-1 Dual, 60VIN Micropower Synchronous Buck Controller - Video Product Brief

Bruce Haug - Product Marketing Engineer Mar 3rd 2016
The LTC®3892/LTC3892-1/LTC3892-2 is a high performance dual step-down DC/DC switching regulator controller that drives all N-channel synchronous power MOSFET stages. Power loss and noise are minimized by operating the two controller output stages out-of-phase. The gate drive voltage can be programmed from 5V to 10V ...

Quad Buck Regulators in an Impossibly Small Space

Michael Nootbaar - Sr. Design Engineer Nov 11th 2015
Frequently, the power supply gets whatever board space is left over regardless of how impossibly small. Using Linear’s latest Quad Buck regulator, the LT8602, you can have four regulated outputs in an incredibly small space. The LT8602 has two high voltage buck regulators with an input voltage range of 3V to 42V. It ...

  The LT®8471 is a dual PWM DC/DC converter containing two internal 2A, 50V switches and an additional 500mA switch to facilitate step-down and inverting conversion. Each 2A channel can be independently configured as a buck, boost, SEPIC, flyback or inverting converter. Capable of generating positive and negative ...

150V, 100mA Step-Down Regulator Requires Only Three External Components

Jason Leonard - Design Manager Jun 18th 2013
The LTC3639 step-down regulator integrates key high performance features into one compact IC. It is capable of up to 150V input voltage and 100mA output current, utilizing synchronous rectification and low quiescent current to maintain high efficiency over a broad spectrum of load current. Its adjustable output can be programmed ...

Switching Regulator Power Loss

Robert Dobkin - Chief Technical Officer Jan 9th 2012
Efficiency is a misleading number for comparison of switching regulators. The efficiency number can be manipulated by the input and output voltage, while power loss is more tightly tied to the actual circuit. This video explains why. ...

Wide VIN Range Step-Down Regulators Consume Only 2.8μA Input Current

John Gardner - Design Engineer May 23rd 2011
Battery life is paramount in modern battery-powered systems. Portable applications, such as remote sensors, require voltage regulators which have low current standby states and also able to provide bursts of high power. Linear Technology’s LT®3970/LT3971 lead the industry in low current standby mode by consuming only ...
