The LTC7103 is a 2.3A, 105V input capable synchronous step-down switching regulator.
This makes it suitable for a variety of transportation, industrial and communications applications such as 48V automotive, 36V to 72V telecom, avionics and dual battery vehicle systems.
The LTC7103’s high efficiency internal power switches can deliver up to 2.3A of continuous output current.
It incorporates proprietary technology that reduces EMI/EMC emissions to an ultralow level, passing automotive CISPR#25, Class 5 limits without sacrificing efficiency, the company claims.
According to LTC it delivers efficiencies over 96% while regulating a 12V output and over 90% while regulating a 3.3V output. To avoid noise-sensitive frequency bands, the switching frequency can be set between 200kHz and 2MHz, or synchronised anywhere in this range using the device’s internal phase-locked loop.
The LTC7103 uses a unique constant frequency average current mode control architecture. This enables a fast transient response with loop stability as well as fast and accurate output current programming and monitoring with no external sense resistor.
This adjustable, brick-wall style current limit feature suits the device for current source applications such as battery or capacitor charging and LED lighting.
It draws only 2µA of input quiescent current while regulating the output voltage at no load, extending battery operating life in always-on applications.
Low ripple burst mode operation maintains high efficiency at light load currents while keeping output ripple small.
To further minimise ripple, a pulse-skipping mode can be selected. The LTC7103 features a low minimum on-time of 40ns and a maximum duty cycle of 100%, enabling the output voltage to be set anywhere from 1V up to the input voltage.
It has eight pin-selectable fixed output voltage set points that include commonly used rails from 1.2V to 15V. These pre-programmed output voltages save board space and reduce the no-load quiescent current by eliminating an external resistor divider.
Internal voltage loop compensation automatically adjusts based on the switching frequency to ensure both speed and stability. Alternatively, the voltage loop can be optimised externally using OPTI-LOOP compensation.
The LTC7103 is packaged in a thermally enhanced 5x6mm QFN-36(26) package with high voltage pin spacing.
An industrial temperature version, the LTC7103IUHE, is tested and guaranteed to operate from a -40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature. A high temperature version, the LTC7103HUHE, operates from a -40°C to 150°C operating junction temperature.
Finally, a high reliability version, the LTC7103MPUHE, operates from a –55°C to 150°C operating junction temperature.
Pricing starts at $4.50 each in 1,000-piece quantities and all versions are available from stock.
Its wide 4.4V to 105V input voltage range is designed for operation from a continuously high voltage input source or from an input that has high voltage surges, eliminating the need for external surge suppression devices.
This makes it suitable for a variety of transportation, industrial and communications applications such as 48V automotive, 36V to 72V telecom, avionics and dual battery vehicle systems.
