Product details
Overview
LT1107IS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower DC/DC converter IC supporting step-up, step-down, and inverting topologies. It features 320µA quiescent current, internal 1A power switch, 63kHz oscillator, adjustable or fixed 5V/12V output, and on-chip low-battery detector - enabling compact, battery-efficient power supplies for portable instrumentation and palmtop computers.
For engineers reviewing the LT1107IS8#PBF datasheet, LT1107IS8#PBF pinout, LT1107IS8#PBF application, or LT1107IS8#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include input voltage range (2V–30V), duty cycle (70% in step-up mode), switch current limit programmability via ILIM pin, thermal rating (–45°C to 85°C), and SO-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LT1107IS8#PBF implements a gated-oscillator architecture where the 63kHz oscillator activates only when feedback voltage falls below 1.25V reference, minimizing quiescent current. Its NPN power switch operates with 0.65V saturation voltage at 650mA in step-up mode and supports user-programmable current limiting via external resistor on ILIM pin.
It integrates an auxiliary gain block (AO/SET pins) configurable as low-battery detector or error amplifier, and uses internal resistive feedback for fixed-output versions (LT1107-5/LT1107-12) while the base LT1107 variant requires external resistor divider on FB/SENSE pin for adjustable output regulation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Quiescent Current | 320µA (enables >1-year battery life in low-duty-cycle portable devices) |
| Oscillator Frequency | 63kHz typical (optimized for surface-mount inductors and minimal EMI) |
| Input Voltage Range | 2V–12V (step-up), 3V–30V (step-down) (supports single-cell alkaline to industrial 24V rails) |
| Output Voltage Options | Adjustable (via FB/SENSE), or fixed 5V/12V (reduces BOM count and layout complexity) |
| Switch Current Limit | Programmable up to 1.5A (prevents inductor saturation and switch overcurrent during VIN transients) |

| GND (Pin 5) | Analog/Digital Ground Reference | Common return for feedback, gain block, and oscillator circuits |
| AO (Pin 6) | Auxiliary Gain Block Output | Open-collector output sinking up to 300µA; used for low-battery flag or post-regulation |
| SET (Pin 7) | Gain Block Non-Inverting Input | Connects to resistor divider for low-battery detection threshold or error amplifier reference |
| FB/SENSE (Pin 8) | Feedback Input / Output Sense | For LT1107: comparator input; for LT1107-5/-12: connects to internal voltage divider |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DC/DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1174CS8-5#PBF | Higher 1.4MHz switching frequency; lower 100µA IQ; no integrated current limit programming | Better suited for ultra-low-noise, high-density designs requiring smaller magnetics | Select when board space is critical and input range is limited to 2.7V–10V |
| MAX761CSA+T | Fixed 5V output only; 100µA IQ; 300kHz oscillator; no auxiliary gain block | Simpler implementation for dedicated 5V step-up, but lacks configurability and monitoring features | Select when cost and design simplicity outweigh need for adjustable output or low-battery detection |
Compared with LTC1174CS8-5#PBF and MAX761CSA+T, the LT1107IS8#PBF offers broader input range (2V–30V), programmable current limiting, and integrated gain block for system monitoring - making it optimal for rugged, multi-mode portable power systems where flexibility and reliability are prioritized over minimum footprint.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT1107IS8#PBF?
The LT1107IS8#PBF has an absolute maximum supply voltage (VIN) rating of 36V. However, its functional step-up operating range is specified from 2V to 12.6V, and step-down operation supports inputs up to 30V. Exceeding 30V in step-down mode risks exceeding internal power dissipation limits and should be avoided in sustained operation.
Does the LT1107IS8#PBF require external components to regulate output voltage?
Yes - the base LT1107IS8#PBF requires two external resistors (R1, R2) on the FB/SENSE pin to set the output voltage using the formula VOUT = 1.25V × (1 + R1/R2). Fixed-output variants (e.g., LT1107IS8-5#PBF) integrate these resistors and need no external feedback network.
Can the LT1107IS8#PBF operate in inverting (positive-to-negative) configuration?
Yes - the LT1107IS8#PBF supports inverting topology by connecting SW2 to the output capacitor and SW1 to ground, with the feedback referenced to ground. This configuration generates negative output voltages up to –6.2V; higher magnitudes require additional diode isolation per datasheet Figure 3.
What is the purpose of the AO and SET pins on the LT1107IS8#PBF?
The AO (pin 6) and SET (pin 7) pins form an auxiliary PNP-input op amp. SET is the non-inverting input tied to an internal 1.25V reference; AO is an open-collector output sinking up to 300µA. Together they enable low-battery detection, linear post-regulation, or undervoltage lockout without external amplifiers.
Is the LT1107IS8#PBF pin-compatible with other Linear DC/DC controllers?
Yes - the LT1107IS8#PBF is pin-for-pin compatible with the LT1111 in the same SO-8 package. However, the LT1107IS8#PBF uses a 70% duty cycle versus the LT1111's 50%, delivering higher output current in step-up applications without layout changes.
