LT1777 Series

The LT1777 is a Buck (step-down) regulator designed for noise sensitive applications. It contains a dI/dt limiting circuit programmed via a small external inductor in the switching path. Internal circuitry also generates controlled dV/dt ramp rates.The monolithic die includes all oscillator, control and protection circuitry. The part can accept operating input voltages as high as 48V, and contains an output switch rated at 700mA peak current. Current mode control offers excellent dynamic input supply rejection and short-circuit protection. The internal control circuitry is normally powered via the VCCpin, thereby minimizing power drawn directly from the VINsupply (see Applications Information). The fused-lead SO16 package and 100kHz switching frequency allow for minimal PC board area requirements.ApplicationsAutomotive Cellular and GPS ReceiversTelecom Power SuppliesIndustrial Instrument Power Supplies
