TYPICAL APPLICATION
DESCRIPTION
3A, Full Featured DC/DC
Converter with Soft-Start
and Inrush Current Protection
The LT
®
3479 is a current mode, fi xed frequency step-up
DC/DC converter with an internal 3A, 42V switch. Effi cien-
cies of up to 89% can be achieved in typical applications. It
features a programmable soft-start function to limit induc-
tor current during start-up and inrush current protection
to protect the LT3479 during shorts and line transients.
Both inputs of the error amplifi er are available to the user
allowing positive and negative output voltages. Through
an external resistor, the user can program the switch-
ing frequency from 200kHz to 3.5MHz. The low profi le
(0.75mm) 14-pin, 4mm × 3mm DFN package provides
excellent thermal performance in a small footprint. The
LT3479 is also available in a thermally enhanced 16-pin
TSSOP package.
