The innovative ultralow noise architecture provides excep-
tional low frequency (0.1Hz to 100kHz) output noise per-
formance in a switching regulator. The output voltage can
be programmed with a single resistor, providing unity-
gain operation over the output range, resulting in virtually
constant output noise independent of output voltage.

Silent Switcher architecture minimizes EMI emissions
while delivering high efficiency at high switching fre-
quencies. The top of the package features exposed die
for optional heat sink attachment which can be used to
significantly improve thermal performance.

The LT8627SP is ideal for high current, noise sensitive
applications which benefit from the high efficiency of a
synchronous switching regulator.
Note: The LT8627SP is pin-to-pin compatible with the LT8625SP-1.
