Product details
Overview
LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower step-up DC/DC converter in SOIC-8 package, delivering fixed 5V output with up to 110mA load current from as low as 2V input, 360µA standby current, and 120kHz oscillator frequency-designed for flash memory VPP generation and low-voltage portable systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF datasheet, LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF pinout, LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF application, or LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF equivalent, this device requires only four external components, supports logic-controlled shutdown, operates without frequency compensation, and targets cost-sensitive, battery-powered applications needing stable 5V rail generation from sub-5V sources.
Technical Context
The LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF implements a gated-oscillator architecture with internal 1.25V reference and comparator-based feedback control. Its Burst Mode™ operation enables micropower quiescent current while maintaining regulation under light loads.
It integrates an NPN power switch rated for 2A peak current and 0.65V saturation voltage at 650mA (VIN = 3V), with shutdown pin compatibility (VIH ≥ 2.0V, VIL ≤ 0.8V) and no internal current limiting-requiring careful inductor selection to avoid overcurrent under wide VIN variation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.00V ±2.5% (4.75–5.25V); tightly regulated for flash programming voltage compliance. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.0V to 9.0V; enables direct operation from single Li-ion, NiMH, or dual alkaline cells. |
| Quiescent Current | 360µA typical (shutdown active); critical for battery runtime in standby modes. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 120kHz typical (105–135kHz); allows use of small, low-cost surface-mount inductors (e.g., 20–33µH). |
| Switch Saturation Voltage | 0.65V max at 650mA (VIN = 3V); limits conduction loss and thermal rise in compact layouts. |
| Shutdown Pin Threshold | VIL ≤ 0.8V / VIH ≥ 2.0V; compatible with standard CMOS/TTL logic interfaces. |
| Output Ripple | 25–50mV peak-to-peak; meets VPP tolerance requirements for most parallel NOR flash devices. |
Pinout & Package
LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8) package, 3.9mm × 4.9mm body, 1.27mm lead pitch, RoHS-compliant and tape-and-reel packaged (#TRPBF).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Power Input | Primary DC input (2V–9V); connects to battery or regulator output; bypassed with 22µF capacitor. |
| 2 - NC | No Connect | Internally unused; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice. |
| 3 - SW | Switch Node | Collector of internal NPN switch; drives external Schottky diode (e.g., MBRS130T3) and inductor. |
| 4 - PGND | Power Ground | High-current return path for switch and inductor; separate from signal ground to minimize noise coupling. |
| 5 - FB (SENSE) | Feedback Input | Monitors output via resistor divider (not used in fixed-5V version; internally connected to 5V reference). |
| 6 - SHUTDOWN | Enable Control | Active-low logic input; pulls oscillator gate low when ≤0.8V, reducing IQ to 360µA. |
| 7 - NC | No Connect | Internally unused; must be left floating or tied to GND. |
| 8 - GND | Signal Ground | Reference for FB, SHUTDOWN, and internal circuitry; star-connected to PGND at single point. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Four-Component Solution | Requires only inductor, Schottky diode, input cap, and output cap-reduces BOM count and board area vs. controller+MOSFET solutions. |
| Logic-Controlled Shutdown | Enables system-level power sequencing; draws only 360µA during sleep, extending battery life in intermittent-use devices. |
| Gated-Oscillator Architecture | Eliminates need for external compensation network-simplifies design and improves stability across temperature and load. |
| Micropower Burst Mode™ Operation | Maintains regulation at light loads while minimizing average current draw-critical for flash programming duty cycles. |
| SOIC-8 Surface-Mount Package | Enables automated assembly and high-density PCB layouts; compatible with standard reflow profiles. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-up DC/DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1109ACS8-12#TRPBF | Fixed 12V output; higher VOUT tolerance (±4.6%), 120mA max at 5V input; same pinout and quiescent current. | Targets flash VPP requiring 12V (e.g., older EPROMs); not interchangeable without circuit redesign. | Select only if 12V output is required; shares identical footprint and shutdown interface but differs in feedback network and output capacitor rating. |
| MAX680ESA+ | Charge-pump topology; no inductor required; 5V output from 4.5–6.0V input; 100mA max; 120µA quiescent current. | Suitable for low-noise, low-EMI environments where magnetics are prohibited; cannot operate below 4.5V input. | Prefer for space-constrained, EMI-sensitive designs with ≥4.5V input; avoid when input drops below 2.5V or high efficiency at light load is critical. |
Compared with LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF, the LT1109ACS8-12#TRPBF offers higher output voltage but identical package and control interface, while the MAX680ESA+ eliminates magnetics at the cost of input voltage range and peak current capability-making LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF optimal for ultra-low-VIN, inductor-tolerant, cost-driven 5V boost applications.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF to regulate 5V output?
The LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF guarantees regulation down to 2.0V input across temperature, delivering up to 110mA at 5V. Below 2.0V, output drops out of regulation; typical start-up occurs at ~1.8V, but full specification compliance begins at 2.0V as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables.
Can LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF be used with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF supports ceramic output capacitors, but requires attention to ESR: values below 10mΩ may cause instability due to insufficient zero placement. The datasheet recommends low-ESR tantalum (e.g., AVX TPS series) or aluminum polymer types; if using ceramics, add a 10–22mΩ damping resistor in series with the cap or select parts with controlled ESR.
Does LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF include overcurrent protection?
No, LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF has no internal overcurrent or short-circuit protection. Its 2A switch rating assumes proper external inductor selection (e.g., Sumida CD54-220LC) and thermal management. Under overload or short-circuit, the device relies on external current limiting or foldback via input supply derating-designers must implement external safeguards per application requirements.
What is the thermal performance of LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF in SOIC-8 package?
LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF has θJA = 150°C/W (SOIC-8, JEDEC standard PCB) and TJMAX = 90°C. At 110mA output and 3V input, typical power dissipation is ~180mW; junction temperature rise is ~27°C above ambient-well within safe margin. For continuous 150mA operation, increase copper area or add thermal vias to limit ΔT to <40°C.
Is LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF pin-compatible with LT1109ACN8-5?
Yes, LT1109ACS8-5#TRPBF and LT1109ACN8-5 share identical pin functions and electrical specifications, differing only in package: SOIC-8 vs. PDIP-8. Both use the same pin numbering (VIN, NC, SW, PGND, FB, SHUTDOWN, NC, GND) and require identical external components-enabling drop-in replacement where board layout permits.
