LT8648S 42V, 15A Synchronous Step-Down Silent Switcher 2 FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Silent Switcher ® 2 Architecture The LT®8648S synchronous step-down regulator n Ultralow EMI Emissions on Any PCB features second generation Silent Switcher architecture n Eliminates PCB Layout Sensitivity designed to minimize EMI emissions while delivering high n Internal Bypass Capacitors Reduce Radiated EMI efficiency at high switching frequencies. This includes n Optional Spread Spectrum Modulation the integration of input and boost capacitors to optimize n High Efficiency at High Frequency all the fast current loops inside and make it easy to n achieve advertised EMI performance by reducing layout Up to 95.5% Efficiency at 1MHz, 12VIN to 5VOUT n sensitivity. This performance makes the LT8648S ideal for Up to 93% Efficiency at 2MHz, 12VIN to 5VOUT n noise sensitive applications and environments. Wide Input Voltage Range: 3V to 42V n 15A Output Current The fast, clean, low overshoot switching edges enable high n Low Quiescent Current Burst Mode® Operation efficiency operation even at high switching frequencies, n 100µA IQ Regulating 12VIN to 5VOUT leading to a small overall solution size. Peak current mode n Output Ripple < 10mVP-P control with a 25ns minimum on-time allows high step n External Compensation: Fast Transient Response and down ratios even at high switching frequencies. External Current Sharing compensation via the VC pin allows for fast transient n Fast Minimum Switch On-Time: 25ns response at high switching frequencies. The VC pin n Low Dropout Under All Conditions: 35mV at 1A also enables current sharing and a CLKOUT pin enables n Forced Continuous Mode synchronizing other regulators to the LT8648S. n Adjustable and Synchronizable: 200kHz to 2.2MHz Burst Mode operation enables low standby current n Output Soft-Start and Power Good consumption, forced continuous mode can control n Safely Tolerates High Reverse Current frequency harmonics across the entire output load n Small 36-Lead 7mm × 4mm LQFN Package range, or spread spectrum operation can further reduce n AEC-Q100 Qualification in Progress EMI emissions. Soft-start and tracking functionality is accessed via the SS pin, and an accurate input voltage APPLICATIONS UVLO threshold can be set using the EN/UV pin. n Automotive and Industrial Supplies All registered trademarks and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
