The LTC3878 is a synchronous step-down switching DC/DC controller optimized for high switching frequency and fast transient response. The constant on-time valley current mode architecture allows for a wide input range, including very low duty factor operation. No external sense resistor or slope compensation is required. The LTC3878 is pin compatible with the LTC1778 in applications that do not use EXTVCC while offering better efficiency. Consult with the factory to verify compatibility. Operating frequency is set by an external resistor and compensated for variations in VIN to offer excellent line stability. Discontinuous mode operation provides high efficiency during light load conditions. A forced continuous control pin allows the user to reduce noise and RF interference. Safety features include output overvoltage protection and programmable current limit with foldback. Soft-start capability for supply sequencing is accomplished through an external timing capacitor. The current limit is user programmable. The LTC3878 allows operation from 4V to 38V at the input and from 0.8V to 90% VIN at the output. The LTC3878 is available in a small 16-pin narrow SSOP package.Applications Distributed Power Systems Embedded Computing Communications Infrastructure

The LTC2302/LTC2306 are low noise, 500ksps, 1-/2-channel, 12-bit ADCs with an SPI/MICROWIRE compatible serial interface. These ADCs include a fully differential sample-and-hold circuit to reduce common mode noise. The internal conversion clock allows the external serial output data clock (SCK) to operate at any frequency up to 40MHz. The LTC2302/LTC2306 operate from a single 5V supply and draw just 2.8mA at a sample rate of 500ksps. The auto-shutdown feature reduces the supply current to 14?A at a sample rate of 1ksps. The LTC2302/LTC2306 are packaged in a tiny 10-pin 3mm x 3mm DFN. The low power consumption and small size make the LTC2302/LTC2306 ideal for battery-operated and portable applications, while the 4-wire SPI compatible serial interface makes these ADCs a good match for isolated or remote data acquisition systems.Applications High Speed Data Acquisition Industrial Process Control Motor Control Accelerometer Measurements Battery-Operated Instruments Isolated and/or Remote Data Acquisition

Demonstration circuit 1349A is a polyphase 3-output step-down supply with tracking featuring the LTC3853EUJ. The input voltage range is 6.5V to 14V. For applications with narrow, 5V ±0.5V input range, the board has an optional resistor to tie the INTVCC pin to the VIN pin. The demo board provides three 15A outputs, with output voltages of 1.8V, 1.2V and 2.5V. The main features of the board include rail tracking, an internal 5V linear regulator for bias, RUN pins for each output, two PGOOD signals and a Mode selector that allow the converter to run in CCM, pulse skip or Burst Mode operation. Synchronization to an external clock is also possible through some minor component changes.

The LTC2226H is a 12-bit 25Msps, low power 3V A/D converter designed for digitizing high frequency, wide dynamic range signals. The LTC2226H is perfect for demanding imaging and communications applications with AC performance that includes 71.4dB SNR and 90dB SFDR. DC specs include ?0.3LSB INL (typ), ?0.3LSB DNL (typ) and no missing codes over temperature. The transition noise is a low 0.25LSBRMS. A single 3V supply allows low power operation. A separate output supply allows the outputs to drive 0.5V to 3.6V logic. A single-ended CLK input controls converter operation. An optional clock duty cycle stabilizer allows high performance at full speed for a wide range of clock duty cycles.Applications Automotive Industrial Wireless and Wired Broadband Communication

The LTC4221 is a 2-channel Hot Swap? controller that allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane. Using two independent high side gate drivers to control two external N-channel pass transistors, the output voltages can be ramped up with current foldback to limit the inrush current during the start-up period. No external compensation capacitors are required at the GATE pins. The two channels can be configured to ramp up and down separately or simultaneously for supply voltages ranging from 2.7V to 13.5V and 1V to 13.5V for channels 1 and 2 respectively.Each channel has two current limit comparators that provide dual level and dual speed overcurrent circuit breaker protection after the start-up period. If any current sense voltage exceeds 100mV for 1?s or 25mV for the timeout delay (set by the CFILTER at the FILTER pin), then the FAULT latch is set and both GATE pins are pulled low.The FB pins monitor the respective channel output voltages and provide the inputs for the PWRGD comparators as well as overvoltage protection.Applications Electronic Circuit Breaker Power Supply Sequencing Live Board Insertion and Removal Industrial High Side Switch/Circuit Breaker

The LTC4266 is a quad PSE controller designed for use in IEEE 802.3 Type 1 and Type 2 (high power) compliant Power over Ethernet systems. External power MOSFETs enhance system reliability and minimize channel resistance, cutting power dissipation and eliminating the need for heatsinks even at Type 2 power levels. External power components also allow use at very high power levels while remaining otherwise compatible with the IEEE standard. 80V-rated port pins provide robust protection against external faults.The LTC4266 includes advanced power management features, including current and voltage readback and programmable ICUT and ILIM thresholds. Available C libraries simplify power-management software development; an optional AUTO pin mode provides fully IEEE-compliant standalone operation with no software required. Proprietary 4-point PD detection circuitry minimizes false PD detection while supporting legacy phone operation. Midspan operation is supported with built-in 2-event classification and backoff timing. Host communication is via a 1MHz I2C serial interface.The LTC4266 is available in a 5mm ? 7mm QFN package that significantly reduces board space compared with competing solutions. A legacy-compatible 36-pin SSOP package is also available.Applications High Power PSE Switches/Routers High Power PSE Midspans
