Working Principles

The LT3669IUFD#TRPBF is a step-down switching regulator that converts a higher input voltage to a lower output voltage. It utilizes a power switch, inductor, and capacitors to efficiently transfer energy from the input to the output. The regulator operates by rapidly switching the power switch on and off, controlling the duty cycle to regulate the output voltage.

During each switching cycle, energy is stored in the inductor when the power switch is on, and then released to the output when the switch is off. This continuous process allows for efficient voltage conversion with minimal power loss. The feedback pin (FB) is used to set the desired output voltage, which is regulated by adjusting the duty cycle of the power switch.
