Working Principles

The LT1375IS8 is a step-down switching regulator that converts a higher input voltage to a lower output voltage. It utilizes a pulse-width modulation (PWM) control scheme to regulate the output voltage. The feedback pin (FB) monitors the output voltage and adjusts the duty cycle of the internal switch to maintain a stable output. The soft-start/ tracking pin (SS/TR) allows for controlled startup and tracking of the output voltage during power-up.
