Part Number: LM3481
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS40210, LM5022

Hi Team,

My customer is using LM3481 in their design. Blow are two questions:

1. The power loss of VCC will increase when Vin goes up. Can we address this issue?

2. LM3841 can't adjust the soft-start time. Do we have other parts which are similar LM3481 but has SS pin?

Regards,

Yangbo

Hi Yangbo,

In order to answer your question, please let us know what topology does your customer use with the LM3481. Regarding the soft-start adjustment, we have other devices like the LM5022,TPS40210, etc. You may contact us through email if you don't want to disclose much of your customer's info.

Thanks,
Youhao
