The LT
®
3487 dual channel switching regulator generates
positive and negative outputs for biasing CCD imagers.
The device delivers up to –8V at 90mA and 15V at 45mA
from a lithium-ion cell, providing bias for many popular
CCD imagers. The boost regulator incorporates output
disconnect technology to eliminate the DC current path
from V
IN
to the output load that is present in standard
boost confi gurations. The 2MHz switching frequency
allows CCD solutions using tiny, low profi le capacitors
and inductors and generates low noise outputs that are
easy to fi lter. Schottky diodes are internal and the output
voltages are set with one resistor per channel, reducing
the external component count.
Intelligent soft-start allows sequential soft-start of the two
channels with a single capacitor. The soft-start is sequenced
such that the output ramp of the negative channel begins
after the ramp of the positive channel. Internal sequencing
circuitry also disables the negative channel until the positive
channel has reached 87% of its fi nal value, ensuring that
the sum of the two outputs is always positive.
The LT3487 is available in a 10-pin 3mm × 3mm DFN
package.
