LT3080-1
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The second technique for reducing power dissipation,
shown in Figure 9, uses a resistor in parallel with the
LT3080-1. This resistor provides a parallel path for current
fl ow, reducing the current fl owing through the LT3080-1.
This technique works well if input voltage is reasonably
constant and output load current changes are small. This
technique also increases the maximum available output
current at the expense of minimum load requirements.

choose appropriate wattage resistors to handle and
dissipate the power properly. With this confi guration, the
LT3080-1 supplies only 0.36A. Therefore, load current can
increase by 0.64A to 1.64A while keeping the LT3080-1 in
its normal operating range.
