The LTC4557 is a dual SIM/smart-card power supply and level translator, which provides both 1.8 and 3V SIM power and digital signal level shifting from a 3 x 3mm QFN package.
Low voltage operation is supported by the LTC6702's input common mode range, which extends 100mV below ground.
Despite its low power consumption, the LTC6702 can switch with a toggle rate of 3.2MHz and offers a guaranteed propagation delay of less than 500ns.
The LTC6702 offers excellent precision: input bias current is typically 1pA and the offset voltage is guaranteed to be less than 3.5mV.
The built-in comparator hysteresis and guaranteed specifications from -40 to +125C ensure reliable operation in electrically noisy and high temperature environments.
In addition, the LTC6702 offers a robust output drive of +/-15mA and can drive capacitive loads up to 10,000pF.
"The LTC6702 offers a great combination of speed, power, size and output drive", says Brendan Whelan, Design Manager for Linear Technology.
"The versatility of this part is an ideal match for low voltage and battery-operated electronics".
The LTC6702 is in full production, with prices starting at US $0.96 each in 1000-piece quantities. Request a free brochure from Linear Technology Corp ...
