LT3668 40V 400mA Step-Down Switching Regulator with Dual Fault Protected Tracking LDOs FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Dual Low Dropout Linear Tracking Regulators The LT®3668 is a monolithic triple power supply composed n 200mA Outputs with Programmable Current Limits of a 400mA buck switching regulator and two 200mA low n 1.6V to 45V Input Range dropout linear tracking regulators (LDOs).This provides a n Fault Protected to ±45V complete and robust power solution for applications that n Triple Output Supply from a Single Input Requires require the power supply of a sensor to tightly track the Only One Inductor power supply of a measurement ASIC. n IQ = 50μA at 12VIN to 6V and 5V with No Load Each tracking LDO supplies 200mA of output current with n Buck Regulator: a typical dropout voltage of 340mV, and each LDO has an n Low Ripple (<15mVP-P) Burst Mode ® Operation accurate resistor programmable current limit. n 400mA Output with Internal Power Switch n 4.3V to 40V Input Operation Range (60V Max) Internal protection circuitry includes reverse-battery n Adjustable 250kHz to 2.2MHz Switching Frequency protection, current limiting, thermal limiting and reverse n current protection. Power Good Indicator n Available in a Thermally-Enhanced 16-Lead The buck regulator includes a high efficiency switch, a MSOP Package boost diode, and the necessary oscillator, control and logic circuitry. Current mode topology is used for fast APPLICATIONS transient response and good loop stability. Low ripple n Burst Mode operation maintains high efficiency at low Fault-Protected Sensor Supply n output currents while keeping output ripple below 15mV Automotive and Industrial Supplies n in a typical application.
