The LT1357CN8#PBF is part of Analog Devices' low voltage, low power micropower DC/DC converter series. It is a monolithic, high efficiency, wide input voltage range, 1A step-down switching converter with an adjustable, low dropout linear regulator. This DC/DC converter is integrated with Schottky rectifiers, and has an input voltage range of 2.0V to 16.5V. The output voltage can be adjusted from 0.8V to 8V, and the switch current can range from 0.2A to 1A. Other features of this device include output short circuit current limiting, thermal shutdown, low power standby mode and brown-in/brown-out operation. This converter is available in an 8-pin surface mount package and is rated for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
