Analog DC/DC controller with integrated digital power management

Modern electronic systems require high-performance point-of-load power supplies and advanced and intelligent power management. Linear Technology's LTC®3880 combines best-in-class analog switching regulator controllers with precise mixed-signal data conversion to enable superior ease of power system design and management.

The LTC3880's analog current mode architecture ensures optimal loop stability, transient response, accurate DC and dynamic current sharing. In addition, the LTC3880 is a comprehensive digital power manager with more than 100 PMBus-compliant commands and on-chip EEPROM. Built-in precision data converters and EEPROM enable the capture and non-volatile storage of regulator configuration settings and telemetry variable values. The LTC3880 is supported by the LTpowerPlayTM design tool, an easy-to-use and powerful graphical user interface program. The LTC3880 can be used in computers, data communications, telecommunications equipment and storage systems.
