Product details
Overview
LT1176CSW#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 1A monolithic bipolar step-down switching regulator in a 20-lead plastic SO package, featuring 100kHz fixed switching frequency, 5V preset output, 8mA quiescent current, and operation up to 35V input. It serves as an onboard DC/DC power converter for industrial control modules requiring stable 5V rail generation from wide-input unregulated supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT1176CSW#TRPBF datasheet, LT1176CSW#TRPBF pinout, LT1176CSW#TRPBF application, or LT1176CSW#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5V fixed output configuration, 20-pin SO thermal performance (θJA = 50°C/W), micropower shutdown mode (300µA), and compatibility with standard buck, positive-to-negative, and negative-boost topologies.
Technical Context
The LT1176CSW#TRPBF implements a classic positive buck topology enhanced with a true analog multiplier in the feedback loop, enabling near-instantaneous response to input voltage transients and input-voltage-independent loop gain. Its switch output is rated to swing below ground, supporting inverting and boost configurations without external level-shifting.
On-chip pulse-by-pulse current limiting provides robust short-circuit protection, while a self-boot feature enables operation down to 5V input in inverting/boost modes. The device integrates the power switch, oscillator, error amplifier, current limit circuitry, and status monitoring-requiring only external inductor, diode, and capacitors for basic 5V buck operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5V ±0.5% over full temperature/load/input range - ensures stable logic supply without external resistor divider. |
| Switching Frequency | 100kHz typical - balances EMI control, inductor size, and efficiency for mid-power industrial converters. |
| Input Voltage Range | 8V to 35V for buck mode; down to 5V in inverting/boost via self-boot - supports wide-range industrial DC inputs. |
| Quiescent Current | 8mA typical in normal operation; 300µA in micropower shutdown - extends standby time in battery-backed systems. |
| Switch Current Limit | 1.7A typical (ILIM open) - defines maximum peak inductor current and short-circuit energy handling capability. |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 50°C/W (20-pin SO) - enables ~1W continuous dissipation with standard PCB copper, critical for compact designs. |
| Status Output | Open-collector window comparator ±4% of VOUT - provides reliable power-good signaling for system sequencing and fault detection. |
Pinout & Package
LT1176CSW#TRPBF is housed in a 20-lead plastic small-outline (SO) package (SW), 0.300-inch wide body, with exposed thermal pad not electrically connected. Pin 1 is marked by notch or cavity; leads are gull-wing, RoHS-compliant, and rated for 260°C reflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input supply connection | Accepts 8–35V unregulated DC; powers internal bias and switch driver circuits. |
| ILIM | Current limit programming | Open connection sets 1.7A limit; resistor to GND adjusts threshold per ILIM = (RLIM – 1k)/7.65k formula. |
| GND | Power and signal reference | Four dedicated pins (pins 4, 5, 6, 7) minimize ground impedance and improve noise immunity. |
| FB/SENSE | Feedback input | Internally tied to 5V reference; no external divider needed for LT1176CSW-5 variant. |
| VSW | Switch node output | Drives external inductor/diode; swings below ground to enable inverting topologies. |
| VC | Control voltage output | Provides error amplifier output; used for loop compensation and external synchronization. |
| STATUS | Power-good indicator | Open-collector output active low when VOUT is within ±4% window - drives LED or microcontroller interrupt. |
| SHUTDOWN | Enable/disable control | Logic-high (>2.45V) disables regulator and reduces supply current to 300µA. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True analog multiplier feedback | Eliminates input-voltage-dependent loop gain variation, ensuring consistent transient response across 8–35V input range. |
| Pulse-by-pulse current limiting | Prevents thermal runaway during output shorts by limiting each switching cycle's peak current to 1.7A. |
| Self-boot capability | Enables operation from as low as 5V input in inverting/boost configurations without auxiliary winding or charge pump. |
| Integrated status monitor | Provides precise ±4% output voltage window detection with <9µs delay - suitable for real-time power sequencing. |
| Low thermal resistance package | 50°C/W θJA allows 1W continuous dissipation on standard FR4 with minimal copper area - reduces need for heatsinks. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar switching regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3605EDE#TRPBF | 36V input, 1.2A synchronous buck, 3mm × 4mm DFN, 2.25MHz switching | Higher frequency enables smaller magnetics; synchronous rectification improves light-load efficiency | Preferred for space-constrained designs needing >90% efficiency at 10mA–1A loads |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LT1176CSW#TRPBF in buck configuration?
The LT1176CSW#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 38V, but its specified operating range in buck configuration is 8V to 35V. Exceeding 35V may cause premature failure or violate safety margins defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. For reliable long-term operation, design with ≤33V nominal input and account for transients per IEC 61000-4-5.
Does LT1176CSW#TRPBF require external components to set its 5V output?
No, the LT1176CSW#TRPBF is the fixed 5V version (denoted by "-5" suffix) and contains an internal 5V reference connected directly to the SENSE pin. Unlike the adjustable LT1176CSW, it requires no external resistor divider - only input/output capacitors, inductor, and catch diode for basic operation.
How does the STATUS pin on LT1176CSW#TRPBF function in a system power-up sequence?
The STATUS pin on LT1176CSW#TRPBF is an open-collector output that pulls low when the output voltage falls outside a ±4% window around 5V. During startup, it remains high-impedance until regulation is achieved, then goes low if VOUT deviates - enabling use as a power-good signal to gate microcontroller reset release or enable downstream LDOs.
Can LT1176CSW#TRPBF be used in a positive-to-negative converter topology?
Yes, the LT1176CSW#TRPBF supports positive-to-negative conversion because its VSW pin is specified to swing below ground. When configured as an inverting buck-boost, it generates a regulated negative output from a positive input - e.g., −5V from +12V - leveraging the self-boot feature to operate down to 5V input in this mode.
What thermal derating applies to LT1176CSW#TRPBF at 70°C ambient temperature?
With θJA = 50°C/W, the LT1176CSW#TRPBF junction temperature rises 50°C per watt of dissipation. At 70°C ambient, maximum allowable power dissipation before reaching TJMAX = 125°C is (125 − 70)/50 = 1.1W. Derate linearly above 70°C ambient; for continuous 1A output at 24V input, verify actual dissipation using the provided power formula and adjust copper area or airflow accordingly.
