LT3508 - IC 3.2 A DUAL SWITCHING CONTROLLER, 1060 kHz SWITCHING FREQ-MAX, PDSO16, 4.40 MM, LEAD FREE, PLASTIC, TSSOP-16, Switching Regulator or Controller
The maximum input voltage that the LT3508 can handle is 36V, but it's recommended to keep it below 30V for optimal performance and reliability.
To optimize the layout for the LT3508, keep the input and output capacitors close to the IC, use a solid ground plane, and minimize the length of the traces to reduce EMI and noise.
The minimum ESR required for the output capacitor is 0.1 ohms, but it's recommended to use a capacitor with an ESR of 0.05 ohms or less for optimal performance.
Yes, you can use a ceramic capacitor for the output capacitor, but make sure it's a high-quality capacitor with a low ESR and a high ripple current rating.
The output voltage of the LT3508 can be calculated using the formula: Vout = (R1/R2) * (1 + R3/R4) * Vin, where R1, R2, R3, and R4 are the resistors in the feedback network.
