LTC3851 - Linear Technology

LTC3851 Synchronous Step-Down Switching Regulator Controller

The LTC®3851 is a high performance synchronous step-down switching regulator controller that drives an all N-channel synchronous power MOSFET stage. A constant frequency current mode architecture allows a phase-lockable frequency of up to 750kHz. OPTI-LOOP compensation allows the transient response to be optimized over a wide range of output capacitance and .
