LTC1698 Isolated Secondary Synchronous Rectifier Controller UFEATURESDESCRIPTIO ■ High Efficiency Over Wide Load Current Range The LTC®1698 is a precision secondary-side forward ■ ± 0.8% Output Voltage Accuracy converter controller that synchronously drives external ■ Dual N-Channel MOSFET Synchronous Drivers N-channel MOSFETs. It is designed for use with the ■ Pulse Transformer Synchronization LT®3781 primary-side synchronous forward converter ■ Optocoupler Feedback Driver controller to create a completely isolated power supply. ■ Programmable Current Limit Protection The LT3781 synchronizes the LTC1698 through a small ■ ±5% Margin Output Voltage Adjustment pulse transformer and the LTC1698 drives a feedback ■ Adjustable Overvoltage Fault Protection optocoupler to close the feedback loop. Output accuracy ■ Power Good Flag of ±0.8% and high efficiency over a wide range of load ■ Auxiliary 3.3V Logic Supply currents are obtained. ■ Available in 16-Lead SSOP and SO Packages The LTC1698 provides accurate secondary-side current UAPPLICATIO S limit using an external current sense resistor. The input voltage at the MARGIN pin provides ±5% output voltage ■ adjustment. A power good flag and overvoltage input are 48V Input Isolated DC/DC Converters ■ provided to ensure proper power supply conditions. An Isolated Telecommunication Power Systems ■ auxiliary 3.3V logic supply is included that supplies up to Distributed Power Step-Down Converters ■ 10mA of output current.
