LTC1142(RevC) Datasheet PDF - Linear Technology

DESCRIPTION
The LTC®1142/LTC1142L/LTC1142HV are dual synchronous step-down switching regulator controllers featuring automatic Burst ModeTM operation to maintain high efficiencies at low output currents. The devices are composed of two separate regulator blocks, each driving a pair of external complementary power MOSFETs, at switching frequencies up to 250kHz, using a constant off-time current mode architecture providing constant ripple current in the inductor.
