PIN FUNCTIONS
DNC (Pins 1, 5, 7, 8): Do Not Connect. Connected
internally for post package trim. These pins must be left
unconnected.
IN (Pin 2): Positive Supply. Bypassing with a 0.1µF capaci-
tor is recommended if the output loading changes. (V
OUT
+ 0.2V) ≤ V
IN
≤ 12.6V.
DNC (Pin 3): (LTC1798-2.5/LTC1798-3/LTC1798-4.1/
LTC1798-5) Do Not Connect. Connected internally for post
package trim. This pin must be left unconnected.
FB (Pin 3): (LTC1798) Resistor Divider Feedback Pin.
Connect a resistor divider from OUT to GND and the center
tap to FB. This pin sets the output potential.

R1 is connected from OUT
to FB and R2 from FB to GND. Selecting R2 ≥ 10k will
make I
OUT
< 250µA.
GND (Pin 4): Negative Supply or Ground Connection.
OUT (Pin 6): Reference Output. The output can source
up to 10mA and sink up to 2mA. It is stable with output
bypass capacitor ranging from 0µF to 1µF.
