Linear Technology’s H-grade version of the LT3641 is a dual channel, current mode step-down switching regulator with power-on reset and a watchdog timer. Its 4V to 42V input voltage range, with 55V transient capability, makes it ideal for load dump and cold crank conditions commonly found in automotive applications, which require constant output regulation even with input transients as high as 55V. The LT3641 uses a unique dual channel design with a high input voltage (4VIN to 42VIN, 55VIN transient capability) nonsynchronous channel that delivers 1.3A of output current, combined with a lower input voltage (2.5VIN to 5.5VIN) synchronous channel that delivers up to 1.1A of continuous output current.Learn more from Linear.
