Boost, flyback or SEPIC controller for high-temperature, 175C operation
Its 2.5V to 36V input voltage range is intended for high temperature applications such as oil exploration drilling equipment with power sources ranging from 3V to 36V. The LTC1871X’s electrical parameters are 100% tested at 175°C, offering a VREF accuracy of ±2% over the entire –40°C to 175°C temperature range. The LTC1871X’s flexibility for use in boost, SEPIC or flyback topologies is suitable for a range of battery-powered applications commonly found in downhole drilling applications. Its Burst Mode operation offers low quiescent current, for applications that require extended operating battery life. Specialized Cu/Ni/Au bond pad plating ensures long life in high temperature environments while an MSOP-10 package offers a highly compact solution footprint.
It is priced at $125.00 (1,000).
