The LT8494 is an adjustable frequency (250kHz to 1.5MHz) monolithic switching regulator. Quiescent current can be less than 7?A when operating and is ~0.3?A when SWEN is low. The LT8494 can be configured as either a SEPIC, boost or flyback converter.The low ripple Burst Mode operation maintains high efficiency at low output current while keeping output ripple below 10mV.

Input supply voltage can be up to 60V for SEPIC topologies and up to 32V (with ride-through up to 60V) for boost and flyback topologies. After start-up, battery life is extended since the part can draw current from its output (BIAS) even when VIN voltage drops below 2.5V.Using a resistor divider on the SWEN pin provides a programmable undervoltage lockout (UVLO) for the converter. A power good flag signals when VOUT reaches 92% of the programmed output voltage.Additional features such as frequency foldback and soft-start are integrated. The LT8494 is available in 20-lead QFN and 20-lead TSSOP packages with exposed pads for low thermal resistance.
