| Automotive Applications Benefit from Multiphase Boosters |
October, 19 2009 |
| Multiphase operation results in lower component stresses, smaller input and output capacitance, smaller solution size, better thermal management, and lower output noise. With its programmability up to 12 phases using multiple daisy-chained controllers, the new LTC3862 serves the needs of step-up power supplies from 100 to 1000W in automotive fuel injection systems and high power audio amplifiers. |

| Analysing the Hot Spots in Automotive Circuits |
September, 22 2009 |
| Automotive electronics have to perform in temperatures up to 140°C and to avoid thermal issues or, even worse, potential system failure under extreme operating conditions. Thus, it is vital to simulate the operational environment and analyse thermal performance of power devices in transient and worst case scenarios prior to implementing system design-in. |
