µModule Regulator
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LTM®8027 is a complete 4A, DC/DC step-down power
supply. Included in the package are the switching control-
ler,powerswitches,inductorandallsupportcomponents.
Operatingoveraninput voltage rangeof4.5V to 60V (7.5V
minimum voltage to start), the LTM8027 supports output
voltages up to 24V, and a switching frequency range of
100kHz to 500kHz, each set by a single resistor. Only
the bulk input and output filter capacitors are needed to
finish the design.
