Linear Technology LT8697 Cable Drop Compensation Datasheet

About this manual

The LT8697 is a compact, high efficiency, high speed synchronous monolithic step-down switching regulator designed to power 5V USB applications. It features precise output voltage and programmable cable drop compensation to maintain accurate regulation at the end of long cables.

Key characteristics include a wide input range from 5V to 42V, forced continuous operation allowing current sinking for fast load transient response, and high efficiency synchronous operation at 2MHz. The device is available in a small 3mm x 5mm 24-lead QFN package.
