LT3973 Datasheet Step-down Regulator

Manufacturer: Linear Technology (now Analog Devices)

General Description

The LT®3973 is an adjustable frequency monolithic buck switching regulator that accepts a wide input voltage range up to 42V, and consumes only 2.5µA of quiescent current.

A high efficiency switch is included on the die along with the catch diode, boost diode, and the necessary oscillator, control and logic circuitry.

Low ripple Burst Mode operation maintains high efficiency at low output currents while keeping the output ripple below 10mV in a typical application.
