LT8650S
Dual Channel 4A, 42V,
Synchronous Step-Down Silent Switcher 2
with 6.2µA Quiescent Current
DESCRIPTION
The
LT
®
8650S
is a dual step-down regulator that delivers
up to 4A of continuous current from both channels and
supports loads up to 6A from each channel. The LT8650S
features the second generation Silent Switcher architecture
to minimize EMI emissions while delivering high efficiency
at high switching frequencies. This includes integration of
bypass capacitors to optimize high frequency current loops
and make it easy to achieve advertised EMI performance
by eliminating layout sensitivity.
The fast, clean, low-overshoot switching edges enable high
efficiency operation even at high switching frequencies,
leading to a small overall solution size. Peak current mode
control with a 40ns minimum on-time allows high step
down ratios at high switching frequencies.
Burst Mode operation features a 6.2μA quiescent current
resulting in high efficiency at low output currents, forced
continuous mode allows fixed switching frequency opera-
tion over the entire output load range, and spread spectrum
operation can further reduce EMI emissions. External VC
pins allow optimal loop compensation for fast transient
response. The VC pins can also be used for current sharing
and the CLKOUT pin enables synchronizing two LT8650S
chips to generate a 4-phase, 16A supply.

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 LT8650SE 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
LT8650SI is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction
temperature range. High junction temperatures degrade operating
lifetimes. Operating lifetime is derated at junction temperatures greater
than 125°C. The junction temperature (T
J
, in °C) is calculated from the
ambient temperature (T
A
in °C) and power dissipation (P
D
, in Watts)
according to the formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
•
θ
JA
) where
θ
JA
(in °C/W) is the package thermal
impedance.
Note 3:
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
