conditions surrounding power-hungry components such as CPUs,
SoCs and FPGAs. Furthermore, the LTC3310S includes accurate
internal temperature sensors, which allows for the measurement
of the internal junction temperature through the SSTT pin,
as shown in Figure 10, with the resulting temperature sensor
characteristic shown in Figure 11.
Certain monolithic regulators can be scaled to higher load
applications through multiphase, parallel operation. Figure 12
shows multiple LTC3310S devices connected in parallel and
