LTC1751 Output Voltage Limit

Category: Datasheet/Specs
Product Number: LTC1751

Hi,

The datasheet of LTC1751 says that 6V is absolute maximum output voltage. I want to generate 5.5V using this IC with 3.3V as input. Will it be possible that this will give me 5.5V?

I also simulated the circuit in LTSpice there it is showing the output as 5.5V. Please tell if I can proceed with this design.

Any suggestion is appriciated.

Thanks.

  • Hello, The LTC1751 can produce 5.5V from 3.3V. The voltage loss from VIN to VOUT ~(2VIN - ROUT*IOUT) might cause VOUT to start dropping out at full load especially if VIN droops or maybe at temperatures. It looks like the typical part can provide the full load based on what I see in the datasheet but I do not know how that will be from part to part or over temp.
