The LT1270A/LT1270 are monolithic high power switch-
ing regulators. Identical to the popular LT1070, except for
switching frequency (60kHz) and higher switch current,
they can be operated in all standard switching configura-
tions including buck, boost, flyback, and inverting. A high
current, high efficiency switch is included on the die along
with all oscillator, control, and protection circuitry. Inte-
gration of all functions allows the LT1270A/LT1270 to be
built in a standard TO-220 power package. This makes it
extremely easy to use and provides “bust proof” operation
similar to that obtained with 3-pin linear regulators.
The LT1270A/LT1270 operate with supply voltages from
3.5V to 30V, and draw only 7mA quiescent current. By
utilizing current-mode switching techniques, they provide
excellent AC and DC load and line regulation.
The LT1270A/LT1270 use adaptive anti-sat switch drive to
allow very wide ranging load currents with no loss in
efficiency. An externally activated shutdown mode re-
duces total supply current to 100µA typical for standby
operation.

USER NOTE:
This data sheet is only intended to provide specifications, graphs and a general functional
description of the LT1270A/LT1270. Application circuits are included to show the capability of the
LT1270A/LT1270. A complete design manual (AN-19) should be obtained to assist in developing
new designs. AN-19 contains a comprehensive discussion of both the LT1070 and the external
components used with it, as well as complete formulas for calculating the values of these
components. AN-19 can also be used for the LT1270A/LT1270 by factoring in the higher switch
current rating and higher operating frequency.
A comprehensive CAD program called SwitcherCad is also available. Contact the local sales office
in your area or the factory direct.
