LT4356 Surge Stopper: Overvoltage Protection Regulator and Inrush Current Limiter
The LT4356 Surge Stopper eliminates the need for bulky filtering components (capacitors, inductors, TVS diodes, fuses) by isolating low voltage circuitry from damaging spikes and surges found in automotive, avionic and industrial systems. The LT4356 offers complete front-end protection, guards against overloads and short circuits and withstands input voltage reversal with a simple IC/MOSFET solution. An important distinction from existing products is that it protects against DC overvoltage and overcurrent, which ordinary surge suppressors cannot do. Under normal conditions, the LT4356 drives the MOSFET fully on, so that input power passes through directly to the load with very little loss. If the input voltage rises above a set threshold, the LT4356 regulates the output at a safe level. The regulating action eliminates the need to use high-voltage-rated components downstream. Instead, less costly components may be used, while the LT4356 blocks high voltages from reaching them. The LT4356 provides the ability to ride out transients for continued system operation. If the fault persists, an adjustable timer sets the time limit to ensure the MOSFET stays within its operating limits before the load is disconnected and the system is shut down. The timer capacitor is charged with a current proportional to the voltage drop, VDS. For an overcurrent fault, the timer charging current is This unique feature takes better advantage of the Safe Operating Area (SOA) of the MOSFET than would a fixed timer interval, allowing the user to size the MOSFET accordingly.

60V STEP-DOWN
60VIN, High Efficiency Monolithic Step-Down DC/DC Converters

Many automotive systems are required to operate in always-on mode, even when the ignition is turned off. For these applications, Linear Technology offers a broad line of step-down DC/DC converters that operate with less than 100A of quiescent current, minimizing battery drain when the car is not running. Additionally, these devices can withstand transient input voltages from 60V to 80V found in load dump conditions while maintaining output voltage regulation. Similarly, they can operate from input voltages less than 4V, allowing them to regulate through the cold-crank scenario as well. Efficiencies as high as 90% can be maintained, minimizing thermal issues, and switching frequencies as high as 500kHz minimize solution footprints while keeping switching noise out of critical frequency bands.

36V IN Low Quiescent Current Synchronous DC/DC Controllers

Linear Technology offers a broad line of step-down DC/DC controllers that operate with less than 100A of quiescent current, minimizing battery drain when the car is not running. These devices can withstand transient input voltages up to 36V found during load dump conditions while maintaining output voltage regulation. Similarly, they can operate from input voltages as low as 4V, allowing them to regulate through the cold-crank scenario as well. Efficiencies as high as 95% can be maintained, minimizing thermal issues while switching frequencies as high as 1.5MHz minimize solution footprints and keep switching noise out of critical frequency bands.

25V Monolithic Switching Regulators

Some automotive systems are protected from transient input voltages and only require maximum input voltages as high as 25V. However, they must regulate through cold crank conditions with input voltages less than 4V. Linear Technology offers a broad line of step-down DC/DC converters that maintain regulation with these wide input voltage variations. Efficiencies as high as 90% can be maintained, minimizing thermal issues, and switching frequencies as high as 2.8MHz minimize solution footprints while keeping switching noise out of critical frequency bands, such as AM radio.

5V STEP-DOWN
Low Voltage (<6V IN) Point-of-Load Synchronous Step-Down Switching Regulators

Many automotive systems use secondary DC/DC converters to step-down 5V or 3.3V rails delivered from primary rails. Generally, these applications require the high (up to 95%) efficiency that synchronous DC/DC converters offer. Since many of these systems must operate in an always on mode when the ignition is turned off, low quiescent current is essential. For these applications, Linear Technology offers a broad line of synchronous step-down DC/DC converters that operate with as little as 16A quiescent current, minimizing battery drain when the car is not running. Efficiencies as high as 95% can be maintained, minimizing thermal issues, and switching frequencies as high as 2.25MHz minimize solution footprints while keeping switching noise out of critical frequency bands, such as AM radio.

LTC6802 High Voltage Battery Stack Monitor for Hybrid/Electric Vehicles & Battery Backup Systems
The LTC6802 is a highly integrated battery monitoring IC capable of measuring up to 12 individual battery cells. Using a unique level shifting technique, multiple LTC6802s can be stacked in series without opto-couplers or isolators, allowing precision voltage monitoring of every cell in long strings of series connected batteries. Long battery strings enable high power, rechargeable battery applications, such as electric & hybrid electric vehicles, scooters, motorcycles, golf carts, wheelchairs, boats, forklifts, robotics, UPS systems and portable medical equipment. With superior energy density, Lithium-ion batteries are poised to be the power source of choice for these applications. However, designing a large, highly reliable and long lasting Li-Ion battery stack is a very complex problem. Li-Ion cells are sensitive to overcharging or over-discharging, requiring that each cell in a stack be carefully managed. The LTC6802 makes this possible with quick and accurate measurements of all cell voltages, even in the presence of stack voltages greater than 1000V+. The maximum total measurement error is guaranteed to be less than 0.25% from -40C to 85C and every cell voltage in a battery stack can be measured within 13ms. Each cell is monitored for under voltage and over voltage conditions and an associated MOSFET switch is available to discharge over-charged cells. Each LTC6802 communicates via a 1MHz serial interface. Also included are temperature sensor inputs, GPIO lines and a precision voltage reference. The LTC6802 was designed for the environmental and reliability challenges of automotive and industrial applications. It is fully specified for operation from -40C to 85C and offers diagnostics and fault detection. The LTC6802 is a small 8mm x 12mm surface mount device. The combined robustness, exceptional precision and tiny package directly address the critical requirements of emerging and advanced battery technologies.

S ILICON OSCILLATORS
Silicon Oscillators
Silicon oscillators provide a clock signal without the need of an external timing element such as a crystal oscillator. As rugged solid-state devices, they offer excellent shock and vibration immunity. These parts are extremely flexible with frequency programmability via pin selection, a single resistor or serial port. With fast start-up time and low quiescent current, Linear Technology silicon oscillators can enable significant system power savings. In addition to general clock appllications, these parts are used in switching regulator synchronization circuits. The LTC6908 provides an optional spread spectrum frequency modulation capability to decrease peak switcher EMI.
