DESCRIPTION
Demo circuit DC2491A features the
ultralow noise and ultrahigh power supply rejection
ratio (PSRR) low dropout (LDO) regulator with program-
mable current limit.
DC2491A operates over an input voltage range of 3.8V
to 20V. The LT3045 delivers a maximum output current
of 500mA. In addition to featuring ultralow noise and
ultrahigh PSRR, the regulator offers programmable power
good functionality as well as programmable current limit.
Current monitoring is also achieved 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.

*The maximum input voltage for 500mA load current is set by the 60°C temperature rise of LT3045 on the demo circuit. Higher input voltage can be
reached if larger copper area or force-air cooling is applied. The output current is also limited by the differential of input and output voltage, please refer
the data sheet for details.

The LT3045 data sheet gives a complete description of the
device, operation and applications information. The data
sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual
for DC2491A. The LT3045EDD is assembled in a 10-lead
(3mm × 3mm) plastic DFN package with an exposed pad
on the bottom-side of the IC. Proper board layout is es-
sential for maximum thermal performance.
