No-Opto 100V Isolated Monolithic Flyback Regulator
Operates over a -55°C to 150°C Junction Temperature Range
MILPITAS, CA – May 3, 2011 – Linear Technology Corporation announces a new high
reliability (MP-grade) version of the LT3511, a high voltage isolated monolithic flyback
regulator that operates over a -55°C to 150°C junction temperature range. This device simplifies
the design of an isolated DC/DC converter since it needs no optocoupler, third winding or signal
transformer for feedback, as the device’s output voltage is sensed from the primary-side flyback
signal. The LT3511 operates over a 4.5V to 100V input voltage range, has a 240mA, 150V
onboard power switch and delivers up to 2.5 watts, making it well suited for a wide variety of
telecom, datacom, automotive, industrial and medical applications.
The LT3511 operates in a boundary mode, a current-mode control switching scheme,
resulting in +/-5% typical regulation over the full line, load and temperature range. Boundary
mode, also known as critical conduction mode (CrCM), permits the use of a smaller transformer
compared to equivalent continuous conduction mode designs. The output voltage is easily set by
two external resistors and the transformer turns ratio. Several transformers identified in the data
sheet can be used for numerous applications. Additional features include an onboard low dropout
regulator for IC power, undervoltage lockout and output voltage temperature compensation. The
high level of integration results in a simple, clean, tightly regulated solution for isolated power
delivery.
The LT3511MPMS is available in a small MSOP-16 package with 4 pins removed for
additional high voltage pin spacing. Pricing starts at $8.95 each in 1000-piece quantities. For
