Product details
Overview
LT1316IS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an industrial-grade micropower step-up DC/DC converter optimized for ultra-low-input-voltage operation down to 1.5V, featuring programmable peak switch current (30–500mA), 33µA active quiescent current, and integrated low-battery detector with active shutdown mode. It targets battery-powered instrumentation, LCD bias generation, and isolated -48V-to-5V conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LT1316IS8#PBF datasheet, LT1316IS8#PBF pinout, LT1316IS8#PBF application, or LT1316IS8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8-lead SO package, programmable RSET-based current limiting, fixed off-time regulation architecture, and guaranteed –40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range performance.
Technical Context
The LT1316IS8#PBF employs a fixed off-time (2µs), variable on-time PWM control scheme that enables stable regulation with only 33µA quiescent current in active mode and drops to 3µA in shutdown while maintaining LBI/LBO functionality. Its internal NPN power transistor delivers 300mV VCE(SAT) at 500mA, supporting high-efficiency boost conversion from single- or dual-cell sources.
Peak switch current is precisely set via external resistor RSET (3kΩ–150kΩ), enabling tailored current limiting for high-impedance inputs like lithium coin cells or telephone lines. The feedback comparator has a 1.23V reference with ±0.5% tolerance over temperature, and the low-battery detector features 1.17V threshold with 35mV hysteresis and open-collector LBO output sinking up to 500µA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Input Voltage | 1.5V to 12V - supports direct operation from 2-cell alkaline or LiMnO₂ batteries without pre-regulation. |
| Quiescent Current (Active) | 33µA typical - enables multi-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes and backup systems. |
| Quiescent Current (Shutdown) | 3µA typical - maintains low-battery monitoring while minimizing standby drain. |
| Peak Switch Current Range | 30mA to 500mA - programmable via single RSET resistor for precise inductor sizing and surge handling. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 1.23V ±1.6% - sets output voltage accuracy via external resistor divider (VOUT = 1.23V × (1 + R1/R2)). |
| Low-Battery Threshold | 1.17V falling edge - triggers LBO output before system brownout, with 35mV hysteresis to prevent chatter. |
| Switch Saturation Voltage | 300mV at 500mA - reduces conduction loss and improves efficiency in high-current boost stages. |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +85°C - fully specified for industrial environments including metering and remote sensing. |
Pinout & Package
LT1316IS8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SO (Small Outline) package (S8), 0.150" wide, with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint and θJA = 120°C/W. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| LBO (Pin 1) | Low-battery detector open-collector output | Sinks up to 500µA when LBI falls below 1.17V; remains active in shutdown for battery monitoring. |
| LBI (Pin 2) | Low-battery detector input | High-impedance node referenced to internal 1.17V comparator; requires no external bias. |
| RSET (Pin 3) | Peak current programming input | Connects to ground via resistor (3kΩ–150kΩ) to set precise peak switch current; avoid capacitance or long traces. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Analog and power ground | Must connect directly to low-impedance ground plane; separates signal and power return paths. |
| SW (Pin 5) | Collector of internal NPN power transistor | High-slew-rate switching node; requires short, wide trace to minimize EMI and voltage spikes. |
| VIN (Pin 6) | Main input supply | Accepts 1.5V–12V; must be bypassed with ≥47µF low-ESR capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| SHDN (Pin 7) | Logic-level shutdown control | Ground to enter shutdown (3µA IQ); drive ≥1.4V to enable; compatible with 3.3V/5V logic. |
| FB (Pin 8) | Feedback input for output regulation | Connects to resistor divider tap; 3nA bias current enables high-resistance dividers for low power. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower step-up DC/DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1304CS8#PBF | Fixed 200mA peak current; no RSET pin; same 1.5V min VIN and 33µA IQ. | Less flexible for varying inductor/transformer requirements; suited for fixed-output, high-volume designs. | Select LT1304CS8#PBF when current limit is fixed and board space is constrained - eliminates RSET resistor. |
| MAX1706ESA+ | 3.3V/5V fixed-output variants; 25µA IQ; requires external diode; no integrated LBI/LBO. | Lacks battery monitoring; limited to standard output voltages; lower IQ but less feature-rich. | Choose MAX1706ESA+ for cost-sensitive, fixed-VOUT applications where battery detection is handled externally. |
Compared with LT1316IS8#PBF, LT1304CS8#PBF trades programmability for simplicity and smaller BOM count, while MAX1706ESA+ offers lower quiescent current but omits critical battery-monitoring functions required in field-deployed equipment.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for LT1316IS8#PBF to start switching?
The LT1316IS8#PBF guarantees operation down to 1.5V input voltage, with typical startup occurring at 1.65V. This enables reliable use with aging alkaline or lithium coin cells whose voltage sags under load. Below 1.5V, the internal oscillator and reference may not stabilize, and regulation ceases. The device does not incorporate undervoltage lockout below this threshold, so external supervision is recommended if VIN may dip below 1.4V.
How do I calculate the RSET resistor value for a desired peak switch current in LT1316IS8#PBF?
To set peak switch current in LT1316IS8#PBF, use Figure 3 ("DC Current Limit vs RSET Resistor") from the datasheet: locate your target current (e.g., 100mA), subtract ~18mA overshoot (due to 300ns transistor turn-off delay), then read RSET ≈ 33kΩ. For precision, apply the formula IPEAK ≈ 0.5V / RSET × (1 + RSET/RINT), though the graph remains the primary design tool. RSET must be between 3kΩ and 150kΩ.
Does LT1316IS8#PBF support discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation?
Yes, LT1316IS8#PBF operates reliably in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), especially at high VOUT/VIN ratios (e.g., 28V from 3.3V) or low peak currents (<50mA). Its fixed off-time architecture naturally transitions into DCM when inductor current reaches zero each cycle. Design equations for DCM - including POUT(MAX) = ½·L·IPEAK²·f - are provided in the datasheet to ensure stability and efficiency.
Can LT1316IS8#PBF be used in a flyback topology with an external MOSFET?
Yes, LT1316IS8#PBF is commonly used in non-isolated and isolated flyback configurations with external MOSFETs. Its SW pin drives the base/gate of an external transistor (e.g., ZVN4424A), while feedback is derived from a secondary winding or optocoupler. The datasheet includes verified designs for –48V-to-5V and 50V-to-6V isolated flybacks, confirming robust gate drive capability and timing compatibility with external power stages.
What is the purpose of the 100pF capacitor from VOUT to FB in LT1316IS8#PBF designs?
The 100pF capacitor from VOUT to FB in LT1316IS8#PBF circuits acts as a feedforward path that reduces output ripple voltage by ~40%, lowering it from ~140mVP-P to <80mVP-P. It compensates for high-frequency switching noise without affecting loop stability, as confirmed in Figures 7 and 8 of the datasheet. This capacitor is optional but recommended for noise-sensitive analog bias rails such as LCD VEE/VCC.
