1 LT86141 Rev. FFor more information FeedbackTYPICAL APPLICATION FEATURESDESCRIPTION42V, 4A Synchronous Step-Down Silent Switcher with A Quiescent CurrentThe LT 8614 Step-Down regulator features Silent Switcher architecture designed to minimize EMI emissions while delivering high efficiency at frequencies up to 3 MHz. Assembled in a 3mm 4mm QFN, the monolithic con-struction with integrated power switches and inclusion of all necessary circuitry yields a solution with a minimal PCB footprint. An ultralow A quiescent current with the output in full regulation enables applications requiring highest efficiency at very small load currents. Transient response remains excellent and output voltage ripple is below 10mVP-P at any load, from zero to full current.

2 The LT8614 allows high VIN to low VOUT conversion at high frequency with a fast minimum top switch on-time of 30ns. Operation is safe in overload even with a saturated features are included and easy to use: An open-drain PG pin signals when the output is in regulation. The SYNC pin allows clock synchronization and choice of Burst Mode operation or pulse-skipping mode. Soft-start and tracking functionality is accessed via the TR/SS pin. An accurate enable threshold can be set using the EN/UV pin and a resistor at the RT pin programs switch 4A Step-Down Converter12 VIN to 5 VOUT EfficiencyAPPLICATIONS nSilent Switcher Architecture nUltralow EMI Emissions nHigh Efficiency at High Frequency nUp to 96% Efficiency at 1 MHz, 12 VIN to 5 VOUT nUp to 94% Efficiency at 2 MHz, 12 VIN to 5 VOUT nWide Input Voltage Range: to 42V nUltralow Quiescent Current Burst Mode Operation: A IQ Regulating 12 VIN to nOutput Ripple < 10mVP-P nFast Minimum Switch On-Time: 30ns nLow Dropout Under All Conditions: 125mV at 1A nSafely Tolerates Inductor Saturation in Overload nAdjustable and Synchronizable.

Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and 2: The LT8614E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications from 0 C to 125 C junction temperature. Specifications over the 40 C to 125 C operating junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization, and correlation with statistical process controls. The LT8614I is guaranteed over the full 40 C to 125 C operating junction temperature range. The LT8614H is guaranteed to meet performance specifications from 40 C to 150 C operating junction temperature range. The l denotes the specifications which apply over the full operating temperature range, otherwise specifications are at TA = 25 junction temperatures degrade operating lifetimes.

8 Operating lifetime is derated at junction temperatures greater than 125 C. Note 3: values determined per JEDEC 51-7, 51-12. See the Applications Information section for information on improving the thermal resistance. Note 4: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to protect the device during overload conditions. Junction temperature will exceed 150 C when overtemperature protection is active.
