LT1777 Low Noise Step-Down Switching Regulator UFEATURESDESCRIPTIO ■ Programmable dI/dt Limit The LT®1777 is a Buck (step-down) regulator designed for ■ Internally Limited dV/dt noise sensitive applications. It contains a dI/dt limiting ■ High Input Voltage: 48V Max circuit programmed via a small external inductor in the ■ 700mA Peak Switch Rating switching path. Internal circuitry also generates controlled ■ True Current Mode Control dV/dt ramp rates. ■ 100kHz Fixed Operating Frequency The monolithic die includes all oscillator, control and ■ Synchronizable to 250kHz protection circuitry. The part can accept operating input ■ Low Supply Current in Shutdown: 30µA voltages as high as 48V, and contains an output switch ■ Low Thermal Resistance 16-Pin SO Package rated at 700mA peak current. Current mode control offers excellent dynamic input supply rejection and short-circuit U protection. The internal control circuitry is normally pow- APPLICATIO S ered via the VCC pin, thereby minimizing power drawn ■ Automotive Cellular and GPS Receivers directly from the VIN supply (see Applications Informa- ■ Telecom Power Supplies tion). The fused-lead SO16 package and 100kHz switch- ■ Industrial Instrument Power Supplies ing frequency allow for minimal PC board area requirements. , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.
