LT3645
36V 500mA Step-Down
Regulator and 200mA LDO
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
TheLT®3645isadualoutputregulatorcombininga500mA
buck regulator and a 200mA low dropout linear regula-
tor (LDO). The wide input voltage range of 3.6V to 36V
makes the LT3645 suitable for regulating power from a
wide variety of sources, including 24V industrial supplies
and automotive batteries. Its high operating frequency
allows the use of tiny, low cost inductors and capacitors,
resulting in a very small solution.

down to 1.2V. It supplies 200mA of output current with a
typical dropout voltage of 310mV.
Other features of the LT3645 include a <2μA shutdown,
short circuit protection, soft-start and thermal shutdown.
The LT3645 is available in the thermally enhanced 16-lead
(3mm × 3mm) QFN package, or a 12-lead MSE package.
