DescripTion
FeaTures
The LT®3697 is a 35V, 2.5A step-down switching regulator
designed to power 5V USB applications. A precise output
voltage and programmable cable drop compensation

to the end of a long cable. The accurate, programmable

and improvesystem reliability. The provided180mA active
loadreducesoutputovershootduringloadtransients.Dual
feedback allows regulation on the output of a USB switch
and limits cable drop compensation to a maximum of 6.1V
output, protecting USB devices during fault conditions. A
separate 5V output can be taken from the SYS terminal
to power auxiliary circuitry such as a USB hub controller.
The LT3697 also provides a load current monitor output
and an overcurrent fault indicator.
