The LT3046 is a high-performance, low-dropout linear regulator featuring Analog Devices, Inc. ultra-low noise and ultra-high PSRR architecture for powering noisesensitive applications. Designed as a precision current reference followed by a high-performance voltage buffer, the LT3046 can be easily paralleled to further reduce noise, increase output current, and spread heat on the PCB.

The device supplies 200mA at a typical 300mV dropout voltage. Operating quiescent current is nominally 3.7mA and drops to 26μA in shutdown. The LT3046’s wide output-voltage range (0.2V to 19V) while maintaining unity-gain operation provides virtually constant output noise, PSRR, bandwidth, and load regulation, independent of the programmed output voltage. Additionally, the regulator features programmable current limit, fast start-up capability, and programmable power good to indicate output voltage regulation.

Built-in protection includes reverse-battery protection, reverse-current protection, internal current limit with foldback and thermal limit with hysteresis. The LT3046 is available in a thermally enhanced, 12-lead, 3mm × 3mm, DFN package.

APPLICATIONS

  • RF Power Supplies: PLLs, VCOs, Mixers, LNAs, PAs
  •  Very Low-Noise Instrumentation 
  • High-Speed/High-Precision Data Converters
  •  Post-Regulator for Switching Supplies

Product Detail

The LT3046 evaluation kits (EV kits) feature the LT3046, a 20V, 200mA ultra-low noise and ultra-high power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR) low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator.

See the Ordering Information section for the two types of EV kits available to evaluate the LT3046. There is an EV kit that features a 12-lead, 3mm × 3mm, plastic dual-flat no-leads (DFN) package with an e×posed pad on the bottom side of the IC, and there is also an EV kit that features an 11-ball, 1.621mm × 1.680mm, WLCSP Package. Proper board layout is essential for ma×imum thermal performance.

The LT3046 EV boards operate over an input voltage range of 3.8V to 20V. The LT3046 delivers a maximum output current of 200mA. In addition to featuring ultra-low noise and ultra-high PSRR, the regulator offers programmable power-good functionality a programmable current limit. Current monitoring is also chieved by sensing the ILIM pin voltage.

Built-in protection includes reverse-battery protection, reverse-current protection, internal current limit with foldback and thermal limit with hysteresis.

For full details on the LT3046, refer to the LT3046 data sheet, which must be consulted with this user guide when using the LT3046 EV kits.

Design files are available on the LT3046 EV kit page.
