It belongs to the PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit) category of Voltage Regulators. Within this category, it can be specifically classified as one of the DC DC Switching Regulators.

LT8614EUDC#PBF application field revolves around the needs for higher power output, higher efficiency, and higher voltage. Specifically, it can be used in applications such as direct water heating, solar energy, automobiles, DC power supplies, electronic ballasts, and more. Due to its programmable current limit and accurate operating frequency of up to 1.5MHz, it is also suitable for high-density and high-efficiency circuit designs.

The working principle of the LT8614EUDC#PBF DC DC switching regulator consists of three stages. Firstly, an internal DC-DC converter module is used to convert the input voltage to a stable, regulated output voltage. Secondly, a linear regulator is utilized to limit the current and maintain the output voltage to a desired level. The output of this stage can then be either directly connected to the load or voltage controlled. Lastly, the controller stage uses a FET (Field Effect Transistor) driver to regulate the output voltage and current.
