Product details
Overview
LT1074HVIT7#06PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 5A monolithic bipolar step-down switching regulator with integrated 60V-rated power switch, designed for high-input-voltage buck, positive-to-negative, and tapped-inductor converter topologies. It operates from 8V to 60V input, delivers up to 10A output in tapped-inductor mode, features 100kHz fixed-frequency operation, 8.5mA quiescent current, and programmable current limit - used in industrial power supplies and high-voltage DC-DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF datasheet, LT1074HVIT7#06PBF pinout, LT1074HVIT7#06PBF application, or LT1074HVIT7#06PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its HV-rated 60V input capability, 7-pin TO-220 package with SHDN/ILIM pins, true analog multiplier feedback for line transient immunity, and verified use in 5V/10A tapped-inductor designs per AN44.
Technical Context
The LT1074HVIT7#06PBF implements a classic buck topology enhanced with a true analog multiplier in the feedback loop, making loop gain independent of input voltage and enabling near-instantaneous response to VIN transients. Its Darlington NPN switch supports 40V swing below ground, enabling tapped-inductor and inverting configurations.
It integrates pulse-by-pulse current limiting via an internal 320µA ILIM current source, with shutdown control through a dedicated SHDN pin (2.45V threshold), and frequency downshifting below 1.3V FB to maintain short-circuit control at ultra-low duty cycles - all within a single 7-pin TO-220 package with exposed tab grounded.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 8V to 60V - supports wide industrial input rails without external pre-regulation |
| Switch Current Limit | 6.5A typical (ILIM open) - enables robust 5A continuous output with margin for peak loads |
| Switching Frequency | 100kHz ±10% - balances efficiency, EMI, and inductor size for mid-power applications |
| Quiescent Supply Current | 8.5mA typical - minimizes no-load power loss in always-on systems |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 2.21V ±1.5% - precision trimmed reference enables accurate output regulation across temperature |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 35°C/W - measured with 0.5 in² 1 oz copper, enabling 5A operation with moderate heatsinking |
| Shutdown Threshold | 2.45V (enable), 0.3V (full micropower) - allows clean undervoltage lockout and low-IQ standby |
Pinout & Package
LT1074HVIT7#06PBF is housed in a 7-lead plastic TO-220 package (T7) with exposed tab electrically connected to GND. The package supports standard straight-lead mounting (flow code 06) and provides thermal relief via direct tab-to-heatsink contact.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Power input & switch source | Supplies internal circuitry and serves as high-current switch return path - requires low-ESR bypass capacitor |
| 2 - VSW | Switch collector output | Drives external inductor/diode; swings 40V below GND - enables negative-output and tapped-inductor topologies |
| 3 - GND | Analog & power ground reference | Reference for internal 2.21V bandgap; must connect directly to low-noise output return to avoid load regulation error |
| 4 - VC | Error amplifier output | Controls duty cycle via transconductance amplifier; connects to RC compensation network for loop stability |
| 5 - FB/SENSE | Inverting error amplifier input | Compares output divider voltage against 2.21V reference; also triggers frequency downshift below 1.3V |
| 6 - ILIM | Current limit programming | Accepts external resistor to ground to scale current limit from 6.5A down to zero - enables foldback protection |
| 7 - SHDN | Shutdown control input | Active-high enable (≥2.45V); pulls ILIM low when asserted - supports UVLO, soft-start, and delayed turn-on |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True analog multiplier feedback | Eliminates input-voltage-dependent loop gain variation - ensures consistent transient response across 8–60V input range |
| 40V switch swing below GND | Enables reliable positive-to-negative and tapped-inductor buck converters without external level-shifting circuitry |
| Programmable current limit | External resistor on ILIM pin sets precise trip point from 0A to 6.5A - supports custom overcurrent protection and foldback |
| Frequency downshifting | Oscillator reduces from 100kHz to ~20kHz as FB drops from 1.3V to 0.5V - maintains stable current limiting during output shorts |
| Micropower shutdown | Reduces supply current to 140–300µA - enables battery-backed or energy-sensitive standby modes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3775EFE#PBF | 40V max input, 10A peak, external MOSFETs, 500kHz sync capability | Higher efficiency at light load; requires gate drivers and layout for dual FETs | Choose for >94% efficiency targets and flexible frequency synchronization |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF?
The LT1074HVIT7#06PBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 64V, with guaranteed operation from 8V to 60V in buck configuration. This HV variant exceeds the standard LT1074 (45V max) and enables direct connection to 48V industrial buses and telecom -48V return-referenced systems without pre-regulation.
Does the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF support negative-output converter topologies?
Yes, the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF supports positive-to-negative conversion because its VSW pin is specified to swing 40V below ground. This capability is explicitly validated in the LT1074•TA03 reference design, which generates –5V/1A from a 4.5–40V input using standard external components and no level shifters.
How is current limit programmed on the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF?
Current limit is programmed via an external resistor from the ILIM pin to GND. With ILIM open, the device defaults to 6.5A. For a target limit ILIM, use RLIM = ILIM(2kΩ) + 1kΩ (e.g., 7kΩ for 3A). This relationship is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Figure 8 of the datasheet for the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF.
What is the purpose of the FB pin's frequency downshifting function in the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF?
The FB pin's frequency downshifting reduces switching frequency from 100kHz to ~20kHz as FB voltage drops from 1.3V to 0.5V. This ensures minimum on-time remains sufficient to control output current during severe overload or short-circuit conditions - a feature critical for maintaining regulation integrity in the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF's high-current applications.
Can the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF be used in a 5V fixed-output configuration without external resistors?
No - the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF requires external FB divider resistors to set output voltage. Unlike the pin-compatible LT1076-5 (fixed 5V), the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF is adjustable from 2.5V to 50V via R1/R2. A typical 5V design uses R1 = 2.8kΩ and R2 = 2.21kΩ, as shown in LT1074•TA01 and confirmed in the Applications section of the LT1074HVIT7#06PBF datasheet.
