Product details
Overview
LT1269CQ#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic 100kHz, 4A high-efficiency switching regulator in a 5-lead plastic DD package. It integrates a high-current switch, oscillator, control, and protection circuitry for buck, boost, flyback, and inverting configurations. With 3.5V–30V input range, 7mA quiescent current, and internal 4A switch, it delivers up to ~15W in buck mode (e.g., 5V/3A) and supports PC power supplies with multiple outputs.
For engineers reviewing the LT1269CQ#TRPBF datasheet, LT1269CQ#TRPBF pinout, LT1269CQ#TRPBF application, or LT1269CQ#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include switching frequency (100kHz), maximum duty cycle (95%), flyback reference voltage (16.3V typ), thermal resistance (θJA = 30°C/W), and shutdown current (100µA).
Technical Context
The LT1269CQ#TRPBF uses current-mode switching control with adaptive anti-saturation switch drive to maintain efficiency across wide load ranges. Its error amplifier features 4400 µmho transconductance and 800 V/V gain, enabling precise regulation under dynamic line/load conditions.
It supports flyback-regulated mode with fully floating outputs and a dedicated 16.3V flyback reference voltage. External synchronization capability (per LT1072 datasheet) allows system-level clock alignment, while shutdown threshold (0.9V typ on VC pin) enables low-power standby operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 100kHz typical - sets minimum inductor size and EMI profile for compact, efficient designs. |
| Max Switch Current | 4A guaranteed at 50% duty cycle - enables ≥3A continuous output in buck mode with margin. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5V to 30V - supports 5V, 12V, and 24V industrial rails without external pre-regulation. |
| Quiescent Current | 7mA typical - minimizes no-load power loss in always-on systems like battery backup supplies. |
| Flyback Reference | 16.3V typical - defines regulated output voltage in isolated flyback topologies using feedback winding. |
| Shutdown Current | 100µA typical - ensures ultra-low standby consumption for energy-sensitive applications. |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 30°C/W - achieved with DD package copper heat sink; enables 100°C junction temp at ~2.3W dissipation with minimal PCB copper. |
Pinout & Package
LT1269CQ#TRPBF is housed in a 5-lead plastic DD (Dual Drain) package with exposed copper heat sink on bottom. The package provides low thermal resistance (θJA = 30°C/W) and is optimized for surface-mount assembly with solderable drain terminals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power Input | Connects to unregulated DC input (3.5V–30V); must be bypassed near pin with ≥0.1µF ceramic + bulk capacitor. |
| VSW | Switch Output | Drives external inductor/diode; connects to drain of integrated 4A N-channel MOSFET switch. |
| GND | Power Ground | Common return for switch, error amp, and internal circuits; requires low-inductance connection to PCB ground plane. |
| FB | Feedback Input | Senses output voltage via resistor divider; regulates to 1.244V reference (buck) or 16.3V (flyback). |
| VC | Control Voltage | Accepts 0.5–1.5V control signal; <0.3V = shutdown, >0.9V = normal operation, open = Burst Mode™. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 4A Power Switch | Eliminates external MOSFET and gate driver, reducing BOM count and layout complexity in 3–5A converters. |
| Current-Mode Control | Provides inherent cycle-by-cycle current limiting and excellent transient response without external compensation. |
| Flyback-Regulated Mode | Enables fully floating, isolated outputs without optocoupler or secondary-side regulation ICs. |
| Adaptive Anti-Saturation Drive | Maintains consistent switch efficiency from light to full load by dynamically adjusting gate drive strength. |
| Burst Mode™ Operation | Reduces light-load efficiency drop-off by pulsing full-power cycles instead of linearly scaling frequency. |
Applications
| PC Power Supply with Multiple Outputs | Battery Up-Converter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Desktop or embedded PC motherboard requiring +5V, +12V, and –12V rails from a single 12V or 24V input.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current switching regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1374CS8#TRPBF | 500kHz switching, 4.5A switch, SO-8 package, VIN ≤ 25V | Better suited for space-constrained, high-frequency designs; lacks flyback reference and floating output support | Choose for higher density and faster transient response where input ≤25V and isolation not required. |
| LT1171CT#TRPBF | 100kHz, 2.5A switch, TO-220 package, wider VIN (up to 40V) | Lower current rating limits output power; same pinout but reduced thermal performance (θJA = 50°C/W) | Choose when input exceeds 30V or cost sensitivity outweighs 4A capability and DD-package thermal advantage. |
Compared with LT1269CQ#TRPBF, LT1374CS8#TRPBF offers higher frequency and smaller footprint but sacrifices flyback capability and 30V+ input support; LT1171CT#TRPBF retains 100kHz operation and higher VIN range but trades 4A current and 30°C/W thermal performance for lower cost and legacy compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum duty cycle supported by the LT1269CQ#TRPBF?
The LT1269CQ#TRPBF supports a maximum switch duty cycle of 95%, which enables high step-down ratios in buck configurations and extended conduction time in flyback topologies. This specification is guaranteed over temperature and ensures reliable operation when designing for worst-case input/output voltage combinations. The LT1269CQ#TRPBF datasheet specifies 80–95% depending on operating conditions, with 90% typical at room temperature.
Does the LT1269CQ#TRPBF require an external diode in boost configuration?
Yes, the LT1269CQ#TRPBF requires an external Schottky diode (e.g., MBR340) in boost configuration to provide the output rectification path, as its internal switch is a single N-channel MOSFET. The diode must handle peak currents up to 4A and reverse voltages exceeding the output voltage plus input voltage. The LT1269CQ#TRPBF does not integrate a synchronous rectifier, so conduction losses depend on diode forward voltage and thermal design.
Can the LT1269CQ#TRPBF be used in flyback mode with primary-side regulation only?
Yes, the LT1269CQ#TRPBF supports primary-side regulated flyback operation using its dedicated 16.3V flyback reference voltage on the FB pin. This eliminates the need for optocouplers or secondary-side TL431 circuits. The LT1269CQ#TRPBF senses reflected output voltage directly from the transformer auxiliary winding, enabling fully isolated, low-component-count designs with ±5% output accuracy under varying loads.
What is the thermal performance difference between the LT1269CQ#TRPBF and LT1269CT#TRPBF packages?
The LT1269CQ#TRPBF (DD package) has θJA = 30°C/W, while the LT1269CT#TRPBF (TO-220) has θJA = 50°C/W - a 40% improvement in thermal resistance. This allows the LT1269CQ#TRPBF to dissipate ~2.3W at 100°C junction temperature with minimal PCB copper, whereas the CT version requires significantly more heatsinking or derating. Both share identical electrical specs, but the Q package enables higher power density in surface-mount applications.
Is the LT1269CQ#TRPBF pin-compatible with the LT1271CQ#TRPBF?
Yes, the LT1269CQ#TRPBF and LT1271CQ#TRPBF are pin-compatible and functionally identical except for switching frequency (100kHz vs. 60kHz) and minor differences in max duty cycle and switch saturation voltage. Both use the same 5-pin DD package, pinout, and application circuits. Designers may substitute LT1269CQ#TRPBF for LT1271CQ#TRPBF when higher frequency operation is needed to reduce inductor size or improve transient response.
