FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
The LT®1943 quad output adjustable switching regulator
provides power for large TFT LCD panels. The device,
housed in a low profile 28 pin thermally enhanced TSSOP
package, cangeneratea3.3Vor5Vlogicsupplyalongwith
the triple output supply required for the TFT LCD panel.
Operatingfromaninputrangeof4.5Vto22V, astep-down
regulator provides a low voltage output VLOGIC with up to
2A current. A high-power step-up converter, a lower-
power step-up converter and an inverting converter pro-

All switchers are synchronized to an internal 1.2MHz
clock, allowing the use of low profile inductors and ce-
ramic capacitors throughout. A current mode architecture
provides excellent transient response. For best flexibility,
all outputs are adjustable. Soft-start is included in all four
channels. A PGOOD pin can drive an optional PMOS pass
device to provide output disconnect for the AVDD output.
