Product Details

Demonstration circuit 1212A-A is a monolithic step-down DC/DC switching regulatro featuring the LT3480 in the 3 × 3 DFN-10 package. The demo board provides 5V at 2A from a 6.3V to 38V input and has transient protection up to 60V. The demo boards default switching frequency is 800kHz, but the LT3480 has a SYNC pin which allows frequency synchronization to an external clock over a 250kHz to 2MHz range. The LT3480's quiescent current is 70uA, while the LT3685 has a 0.9mA quiescent current. 


An EMC filter at the input makes the circuit compatible with EMC standard EN55022 Class B.

Product Details

Demonstration circuit 1091 is a monolithic step-down switching regulator featuring the LT3480 in the MSOP-10 exposed pad package. The operating frequency can be synchronized up to 2MHz. The demo board is designed for 5V/2A output from a 6.3V to 38V input with transients up to 60V. The wide input range of the LT3480 allows a variety of input sources. The typical sources are automotive batteries, wall adaptors and industrial supplies. The modes of operation (Burst Mode and fixed frequency) are jumper selectable.

Product Details

Demonstration Circuit 1394A shows how the LT3480 high voltage step-down regulator can be used with the LTC4098 USB-compatible Li-Ion battery charger to design a 2 input source battery charger circuit that also provides power to the load from the LT3480, a 5V wall adapter or the batteries based on available power. The LTC4098 interfaces with a number of ADI switching regulators to provide a high efficiency, high voltage power path. The LT3480 operates from 8V to 38V (60V transients) and provides 2A with a voltage range that is mode and load dependent.
