The LTC2996 is a high accuracy temperature sensor with adjustable overtemperature and undertemperature thresholds and open drain alert outputs. It converts the temperature of an external diode sensor or its own die temperature to an analog output voltage while rejecting errors due to noise and series resistance. The measured temperature is compared against upper and lower limits set with resistive dividers. If a threshold is exceeded, the device communicates an alert by pulling low the correspondent open drain logic output.The LTC2996 gives ±1°C accurate temperature results using commonly available NPN or PNP transistors or temperature diodes built into modern digital devices. A 1.8V reference output simplifies threshold programming and can be used as an ADC reference input.The LTC2996 provides an accurate, low power solution for temperature monitoring in a compact 3mm × 3mm DFN package.ApplicationsTemperature Monitoring and MeasurementSystem Thermal ControlNetwork ServersDesktop and Notebook ComputersEnvironmental Monitoring

The LTC3025-X is a micropower, VLDO™(very low dropout) linear regulator which operates from input voltages as low as 0.9V. The device is capable of supplying 500mA of output current with a typical dropout voltage of only 85mV. A BIAS supply is required to run the internal reference and LDO circuitry while output current comes directly from the IN supply for high efficiency regulation. The LTC3025-1 features an adjustable output with a low 0.4V reference while the LTC3025-2, LTC3025-3, and LTC3025-4 have fixed 1.2V, 1.5V and 1.8V output voltages respectively.The LTC3025-X’s low quiescent current makes it an ideal choice for use in battery-powered systems. For 3-cell NiMH and single cell Li-Ion applications, the BIAS voltage can be supplied directly from the battery while the input can come from a high efficiency buck regulator, providing a high efficiency, low noise output.Other features include high output voltage accuracy, excellent transient response, stability with ultralow ESR ceramic capacitors as small as 1μF, short-circuit and thermal overload protection and output current limiting. The LTC3025-X is available in a tiny, low profile (0.75mm) 6-lead DFN (2mm × 2mm) package.Output CurrentOutput VoltageLTC3025300mAAdj (0.4V to 3.6V)LTC3025-1500mAAdj (0.4V to 3.6V)LTC3025-2500mA1.2V FixedLTC3025-3500mA1.5V FixedLTC3025-4500mA1.8V FixedAPPLICATIONSLow Power Handheld DevicesLow Voltage Logic SuppliesDSP Power SuppliesCellular PhonesPortable Electronic EquipmentHandheld Medical InstrumentsPost Regulator for Switching Supply Noise Rejection

The LTC3026 is a very low dropout (VLDO™) linear regulator that can operate at input voltages down to 1.14V. The device is capable of supplying 1.5A of output current with a typical dropout voltage of only 100mV. To allow operation at low input voltages the LTC3026 includes a boost converter that provides the necessary headroom for the internal LDO circuitry.Output current comes directly from the input supply to maximize efficiency. The boost converter requires only a small chip inductor and ceramic capacitor for operation. Additionally, the boosted output voltage of one LTC3026 can supply the boost voltage for other LTC3026s, thus requiring a single inductor for multiple LDOs. A user supplied boost voltage can be used eliminating the need for an inductor altogether.The LTC3026 regulator is stable with 10μF or greater ceramic output capacitors. The device has a low 0.4V reference voltage which is used to program the output voltage via two external resistors. The device also has internal current limit, overtemperature shutdown, and reverse output current protection.

The LTC3026-1 is a very low dropout (VLDO™) linear regulator that can operate at input voltages down to 1.14V. The device is capable of supplying 1.5A of output current with a typical dropout voltage of only 100mV. Output current comes directly from the input supply to maximize efficiency.The LTC3026-1 is the same as the LTC3026 but has the boost converter internally disabled. With the boost converter disabled, the SW pin of the LTC3026 is replaced with a ground pin and the BST pin is replaced with a BIAS pin that requires an external 5V supply for operation.The LTC3026-1 regulator is stable with 10μF or greater ceramic output capacitors. The device has a low 0.4V reference voltage which is used to program the output voltage via two external resistors.

The LTC3101 is a complete power management solution for low power portable devices. It provides three high efficiency switching DC/DC converters which seamlessly transition from battery to USB/wall adapter power when available. A synchronous buck-boost regulator provides complete flexibility, allowing operation from a single Li-Ion/Polymer battery, 2 to 3 AA cells, a USB port or any other power source operating from 1.8V to 5.5V.Two always-alive outputs, a 50mA LDO and a 200mA MAX output that tracks the higher voltage input supply, provide power for critical functions or additional external regulators. Flash memory cards can be directly powered from the protected 100mA Hot Swap output. Pushbutton control logic and a programmable-duration microprocessor reset generator simplify interfacing to a microprocessor while internal sequencing and independent enable pins provide flexible power-up options.
