DESCRIPTION
●The LT®3845 is a high voltage, synchronous, current mode controller used for medium to high power, high effi ciency supplies. It offers a wide 4V to 60V input range (7.5V minimum start-up voltage). An onboard regulator simplifi es the biasing requirements by providing IC power directly from VIN.
●Burst Mode® operation maintains high efficiency at light loads by reducing IC quiescent current to 120μA. Light load efficiency is also improved with the reverse inductor current inhibit function which supports discontinuous operation.
