LT3579/LT3579-1 6A Boost/Inverting DC/DC Converter with Fault Protection
FEATURES DESCRIPTION
n
6A, 42V Combined Power Switch
The LT®3579 is a PWM DC/DC converter with built-in fault n
Output Short Circuit Protection
protection features to aid in protecting against output shorts, n
Wide Input Range: 2.5V to 16V Operating,
input/output overvoltage, and overtemperature conditions.
40V Maximum Transient
The part consists of a 42V master switch, and a 42V slave n
LT3579-1: Dual-Phase Capable
switch that can be tied together for a total current limit of 6A. n Master/Slave (3.4A/2.6A) Switch Design The LT3579 is ideal for many local power supply designs. It n User Configurable Undervoltage Lockout can be easily configured in Boost, SEPIC, Inverting, or Flyback n Easily Configurable as a Boost, SEPIC, Inverting, or configurations, and is capable of generating 12V at 1.7A, or Flyback Converter –12V at 1.2A from a 5V input. In addition, the LT3579’s slave n Low VCESAT Switch: 250mV at 5.5A (Typical) switch al ows the part to be configured in high voltage, high n Can Be Synchronized to External Clock power charge pump topologies that are very efficient and n Can Synchronize other Switching Regulators require fewer components than traditional circuits. n High Gain SHDN Pin Accepts Slowly Varying Input Signals The LT3579’s switching frequency range can be set bet- n 20-Lead TSSOP and 20-Pin 4mm × 5mm QFN ween 200kHz and 2.5MHz. The part may be clocked inter- Packages nally at a frequency set by the resistor from the RT pin to ground, or it may be synchronized to an external clock. A buffered version of the clock signal is driven out of
