DESCRIPTIO
The LT®3420/LT3420-1 charge high voltage photoflash
capacitors quickly and efficiently. Designed for use in both
digital and film cameras, these devices use a flyback
topology to achieve efficiencies up to four times better
than competing flash modules. A unique adaptive off-time
control algorithm* maintains current-limited continuous
mode transformer operation throughout the entire charge
cycle, eliminating the high inrush current often found in
modules.
The LT3420/LT3420-1 output voltage sensing scheme*
monitors the flyback voltage to indirectly regulate the
output voltage, eliminating an output resistor divider or
discrete zener diode. This feature allows the capacitor to
be held at a fully charged state without excessive power
consumption. Automatic refresh (which can be defeated)
allows the capacitor to remain charged while consuming
an average input current of about 2mA, at a user-defined
refresh rate. A logic high on the CHARGE pin initiates
charging, while the DONE pin signals that the capacitor is
fully charged.
The LT3420/LT3420-1 are available in 10-Lead MSOP and
(3mm × 3mm) DFN packages.
