LT8650S Dual Channel 4A, 42V, Synchronous Step-Down Silent Switcher 2 with 6.2µA Quiescent Current FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Silent Switcher®2 Architecture: The LT®8650S is a dual step-down regulator that delivers n Ultralow EMI on Any PCB up to 4A of continuous current from both channels and n Eliminates PCB Layout Sensitivity supports loads up to 6A from each channel. The LT8650S n Internal Bypass Capacitors Reduce Radiated EMI features the second generation Silent Switcher architecture n Optional Spread Spectrum Modulation to minimize EMI emissions while delivering high efficiency n 4A DC from Each Channel Simultaneously at high switching frequencies. This includes integration of n Up to 6A on Either Channel bypass capacitors to optimize high frequency current loops n Ultralow Quiescent Current Burst Mode® Operation: and make it easy to achieve advertised EMI performance n 6.2μA IQ Regulating 12VIN to 5VOUT1 and 3.3VOUT2 by eliminating layout sensitivity. n Output Ripple <10mVP-P The fast, clean, low overshoot, switching edges enable n Optional External VC Pin: Fast Transient Response high efficiency operation even at high switching frequen- and Current Sharing (Extra 50µA IQ/Channel) cies, leading to a small overall solution size. Peak current n Forced Continuous Mode mode control with a 40ns minimum on-time allows high n High Efficiency at High Frequency step down ratios at high switching frequencies. n 94.6% Efficiency at 2A, 5VOUT from 12VIN at 2MHz n 93.3% Efficiency at 4A, 5V Burst Mode operation features a 6.2μA quiescent current OUT from 12VIN at 2MHz n Fast Minimum Switch On-Time: 40ns resulting in high efficiency at low output currents, forced n Wide Input Voltage Range: 3.0V to 42V continuous mode allows fixed switching frequency opera- n Adjustable and Synchronizable: 300kHz to 3MHz tion over the entire output load range, and spread spectrum n Small 4mm × 6mm 32-Pin LQFN Package operation can further reduce EMI emissions. External VC n AEC-Q100 Qualified for Automotive Applications pins allow optimal loop compensation for fast transient response. The VC pins can also be used for current sharing APPLICATIONS and the CLKOUT pin enables synchronizing two LT8650S chips to generate a 4-phase, 16A supply. n General Purpose Step-Down n Automotive and Industrial Supplies All registered trademarks and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
