The LT1268B and LT1268 are monolithic high power
switching regulators. Identical to the popular LT1070,
except for switching frequency (150kHz) and higher
switch current, they can be operated in all standard
switching configurations including buck, boost, flyback,
and inverting. A high current, high efficiency switch is
included on the die along with all oscillator, control, and
protection circuitry. Integration of all functions allows
the LT1268 to be built in standard 5-pin power packages.
This makes it extremely easy to use and provides “bust
proof” operations similar to that obtained with 3-pin
linear regulators.

The LT1268 operate with supply voltages from 3.5V to
30V and draw only 7mA quiescent current. By utilizing
current mode switching techniques, it provides excellent
AC and DC load and line regulation.

USER NOTE:
This data sheet is only intended to provide specifications, graphs, and a general functional
description of the LT1268B/LT1268. Application circuits are included to show the capability of the
LT1268B/LT1268.Acompletedesignmanual(AN19)shouldbeobtainedtoassistindevelopingnew
designs. This manual contains a comprehensive discussion of both the LT1070 and the external
components used with it, as well as complete formulas for calculating the values of these
components. The manual can also be used for the LT1268B/LT1268 factoring in the higher switch
current rating and higher operating frequency.

An externally activated shutdown mode reduces total
supply current to 100µA typical for standby operation.
