The LTC3642 can supply up to 50m A load current and Features a programmable peak current limit that provides a simple method for optimizing efficiency in lower current applications. The LTC3642’s bination of Burst Mode® operation, integrated power switches, low quiescent current, and programmable peak current limit provides high efficiency over a broad range of load currents. With its wide 4.5V to 45V input range and internal overvoltage monitor capable of protecting the part through 60V surges, the LTC3642 is a robust converter suited for regulating a wide variety of power sources. Additionally, the LTC3642 includes a precise run threshold and soft‑start feature to guarantee that the power system start-up is well-controlled in any environment. The LTC3642 is available in the thermally enhanced 3mm × 3mm DFN and MS8E packages. L, LT, LTC, LTM, Burst Mode, Linear Technology, and...
