Linear Technology LT1681
The LT1681’s operating frequency is programmable and can be synchronized up to 350kHz. The LT1681 incorporates a soft-start feature that provides a controlled increase in supplied current during start-up and after an undervoltage lockout or overvoltage/overcurrent event. The part is available in a 20-lead wide SO package to support high voltage pin-to-pin clearance.FEATURES
