Analog Devices Inc. LT8337/LT8337-1 Silent Switcher® Converter
Analog Devices Inc. LT8337/LT8337-1 Step-Up Silent Switcher® Converter is a low IQ, synchronous step-up DC-DC converter. It features Silent Switcher architecture and optional spread spectrum frequency modulation (SSFM) to minimize EMI emissions while delivering high efficiencies at high switching frequencies. The wide input/output voltage range, low VIN pin quiescent current in Burst Mode operation, and 100% duty-cycle capability for the synchronous MOSFET in PassThru operation (VIN > VOUT) make the LT8337/LT8337-1 ideally suited for battery-powered systems and general-purpose step-up applications.The LT8337/LT8337-1 integrates 28V, 5A power switches, operating at a fixed switching frequency programmable between 300kHz and 3MHz and synchronizable to an external clock. The LT8337/LT8337-1 features output soft-start and output overvoltage lockout. The LT8337-1 allows external compensation via the VC pin for a fast transient response. The LT8337 offers an output Power Good flag via the PG pin.
The Analog Devices Inc. LT8337/LT8337-1 Silent Switcher is offered in a space-saving LQFN-16 package.
