ADI LTC3256MPMSE#PBF

The LTC3256 is a wide input range switched capacitor step-down DC/DC converter that produces two regulated outputs: a 5V output via direct connection to the charge pump output, and a 3.3V output via a low dropout (LDO) linear post-regulator. The device provides up to 350mA of total output current. At 12V VIN and maximum load on both outputs, power dissipation is reduced by over 2W compared to a dual LDO regulator solution. The LTC3256 maximizes efficiency by running the charge pump in 2:1 mode over as wide an operating range as possible, and automatically switches to 1:1 mode as needed due to VIN and load conditions. Controlled input current and switching slew rates minimize conducted and radiated EMI. An integrated watchdog timer, independent power good outputs and reset input ensure reliable system operation and fault monitoring. A buffered 1.1V reference output enables system self-testing for safety critical applications. The LTC3256 has numerous safety features including overcurrent fault protection, overtemperature protection and tolerance of 38V input transients. The LTC3256 is available in a thermally enhanced 16-lead MSOP plastic package with exposed pad (MSE16).
