LT8640S/LT8643S
42V, 6A Synchronous Step-Down Silent Switcher 2
with 2.5µA Quiescent Current
FEATURES
n
DESCRIPTION
The
LT
®
8640S/LT8643S
synchronous step-down regulator
features second generation Silent Switcher architecture
designed to minimize EMI emissions while delivering high
efficiency at high switching frequencies. This includes
the integration of bypass capacitors to optimize all the
fast current loops inside and make it easy to achieve
advertised EMI performance by reducing layout sensitivity.
This performance makes the LT8640S/LT8643S ideal for
noise-sensitive applications and environments.
Peak current mode control with a 30ns minimum on-time
allows high step-down ratios even at high switching
frequencies. The LT8643S has external compensation to
enable current sharing and fast transient response at high
switching frequencies.
Burst Mode operation enables ultralow standby current
consumption, forced continuous mode can control frequency
harmonics across the entire output load range, or spread
spectrum operation can further reduce EMI emissions.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
The LT8640SE/LT8643SE is guaranteed to meet performance
specifications from 0°C to 125°C junction temperature. Specifications over
the –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by
design, characterization, and correlation with statistical process controls.
The LT8640SI/LT8643SI is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C
operating junction temperature range. The junction temperature (T
J
, in
°C) is calculated from the ambient temperature (T
A
in °C) and power
dissipation (PD, in Watts) according to the formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (PD •
θ
JA
)
where
θ
JA
(in °C/W) is the package thermal impedance.
Note 3:
θ
values determined per JEDEC 51-7, 51-12. See the Applications
Information section for information on improving the thermal resistance
and for actual temperature measurements of a demo board in typical
operating conditions.
Note 4:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to
protect the device during overload conditions. Junction temperature will
exceed 150°C when overtemperature protection is active. Continuous
operation above the specified maximum operating junction temperature
will reduce lifetime.
