GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A programmable Timeout function on the FTO pin forces the internal NFETs to turn off after a certain user defined time. An external SD pin (LM3551) or EN pin (LM3552) is available to put the device into low power shutdown mode. During shutdown, the feedback resistors and the load are disconnected from the input to avoid leakage current paths to ground. User programmable soft-start circuitry has been integrated to eliminate large inrush currents at start-up. Over-voltage protection circuitry and a 1.25MHz switching frequency allow for the use of small, low-cost output capacitors with lower voltage ratings. The LM3551 and LM3552 are available in a low profile 14 pin LLP package. FEATURES
