Working Principles

The LTC2966CSW#TRPBF operates by comparing the input voltage levels with user-defined thresholds. When the input voltage crosses these thresholds, the device generates reset signals, controls power sequencing, and monitors faults. The soft-start control gradually increases the output voltage during startup to prevent excessive current flow. The integrated fault detection circuitry triggers fault outputs when overvoltage or undervoltage conditions are detected, ensuring system protection.
