Selected Monolithic Single & Dual Buck Regulators
Need a high performance, high power point-of-load power supply for your digital IC (FPGA, uP, uC, DSP, GPU, PLD, ASIC)?
The LTC7150S is a 20A, high efficiency monolithic synchronous buck regulator that incorporates Silent Switcher 2 technology,
delivering excellent EMI performance while easing board layout. Its phase-lockable controlled on-time current mode architecture
enables large step-down ratios at high switching frequencies to deliver high power density solutions. PolyPhase operation allows
multiple LTC7150S regulators to run in parallel out-of-phase, reducing the amount of required input and output capacitance.
Its operating supply voltage range is 3.1V to 20V, with an output voltage range of 0.6V to VIN. With an operating frequency
programmable from 400kHz to 3MHz, it can use physically smaller inductor and capacitor sizes, and can be externally synchro-
nized over the same range for noise sensitive applications.

Industrial Controls and Power Supplies
The LT8603 is a highly flexible, quad output regulator combining
two high input voltage capable monolithic step-down switching
regulators, one low input voltage capable monolithic step-
down regulator, and a boost controller to satisfy a wide range of
applications while occupying minimal board space.
With the boost controller configured to supply the chip VIN
supply, the LT8603 produces three precisely regulated outputs
even when the boost input voltage falls significantly below the
regulated output voltages, such as during an automotive cold crank
scenario. Alternatively, with the boost controller driven from one
of the step-down regulator outputs or configured as a SEPIC, the
LT8603 provides four precisely regulated outputs over a wide input
voltagerange.
The LT8603 provides robust regulation by including a cycle-by-cycle
current limit for all step-down regulators, thermal shutdown, and a
boost controller that can tolerate reverse battery connections and
negative transient input voltages down to –42V.
