Product details
Overview
LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower, fixed-frequency 600kHz step-up DC/DC converter in an 8-lead MSOP package. It operates from 1.5V to 12V input, delivers up to 200mA output current, features a 1.24V feedback reference, and maintains continuous switching at light loads-unlike the Burst Mode LT1317 variant. It is used in battery-powered medical devices like glucose meters and portable diagnostic instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF datasheet, LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF pinout, LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF application, or LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its non-Burst Mode operation for ripple-sensitive 3.3V/5V boost supplies, low 300mV VCE(SAT) at 500mA switch current, and integrated low-battery detector with 200mV reference active during shutdown.
Technical Context
The LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF implements a current-mode PWM architecture with a 600kHz oscillator and internal NPN power switch. Its error amplifier uses external RC compensation on the VC pin to stabilize the control loop across input voltage and load variations, supporting ceramic or tantalum output capacitors.
Unlike the LT1317, the LT1317B variant disables Burst Mode via a lower bias point on comparator A1, ensuring constant-frequency operation down to ≤50mA loads-eliminating low-frequency output ripple but reducing light-load efficiency. The low-battery detector remains fully functional during shutdown, with LBI threshold at 200mV ±10mV and open-collector LBO output.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 600kHz fixed (±100kHz tolerance); enables compact magnetics and predictable EMI filtering. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.5V to 12V; supports single Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), dual alkaline (2.4–3.2V), or universal wall adapter inputs. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.24V ±20mV; sets regulated output via resistor divider (e.g., 3.3V = 1.24V × (1 + R1/R2)). |
| Switch VCE(SAT) | 300mV at 500mA; minimizes conduction loss and thermal rise in high-current boost stages. |
| Quiescent Current | 7.5mA typical when switching (VSHDN = 2V); defines minimum operating current under active regulation. |
| Low-Battery Threshold | 200mV ±10mV on LBI pin; enables precise undervoltage lockout without external comparators. |
| Shutdown Current | 40µA max (VSHDN = 0V); preserves battery life while retaining low-battery monitoring capability. |
Pinout & Package
LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic MSOP (MS8) package, 3.0mm × 3.0mm × 0.86mm, with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is VC (compensation), pin 4 is GND, pin 5 is SW (switch node), and pin 8 is LBO (open-collector low-battery output).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VC (Pin 1) | Compensation node for error amplifier | Connects external RC network (e.g., 33kΩ + 3.3nF) to set loop bandwidth and phase margin. |
| FB (Pin 2) | Feedback input | Monitors output voltage divider; 1.24V reference ensures stable regulation across temperature. |
| SHDN (Pin 3) | Enable/disable control | Pull ≤0.4V to shut down IC (except LBI/LBO); float or apply 1.4–6V to enable. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Power and signal ground | Must connect directly to local ground plane; serves as return for SW, FB, and VC paths. |
| SW (Pin 5) | Switch node | Drives external inductor/diode; high di/dt requires short, wide traces to minimize EMI. |
| VIN (Pin 6) | Main supply input | Bypassed with ≥10µF capacitor placed <5mm away to prevent instability or oscillation. |
| LBI (Pin 7) | Low-battery detector input | Accepts divided battery voltage; 200mV threshold remains active even in shutdown mode. |
| LBO (Pin 8) | Low-battery detector output | Open-collector NPN; sinks 10µA; requires external pull-up (e.g., 1MΩ) to interface with microcontroller. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Continuous switching at light loads | Eliminates low-frequency output ripple (<1kHz) critical for noise-sensitive analog circuits and ADC references. |
| Integrated low-battery detector | 200mV ±10mV threshold with active-in-shutdown operation enables reliable battery monitoring without auxiliary circuitry. |
| Low VCE(SAT) switch | 300mV at 500mA reduces conduction loss by >50% vs. typical 600mV switches, improving efficiency at medium loads. |
| External frequency compensation | VC pin allows optimization of transient response and stability for diverse output capacitors (ceramic/tantalum) and load profiles. |
| Wide input range (1.5V–12V) | Supports direct connection to single-cell Li-ion, multi-cell alkaline/NiMH, or industrial 5V/12V rails without pre-regulation. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1317CMS8#TRPBF | Includes Burst Mode operation at light loads; 100µA quiescent current vs. 7.5mA; higher light-load efficiency but introduces low-frequency ripple. | Suitable where ultra-low standby power is prioritized over ripple sensitivity (e.g., pagers, remote sensors). | Select LT1317CMS8#TRPBF only if system can tolerate ~1–10Hz output ripple and requires <100µA no-load draw. |
| LT1307BCS8#TRPBF | Single-cell optimized (1.5V–10V), same 600kHz frequency and pinout, but lacks integrated low-battery detector and has higher 500mV VCE(SAT). | Used in cost-sensitive, space-constrained applications without battery monitoring needs (e.g., basic cordless phones). | Choose LT1307BCS8#TRPBF when LBI/LBO functionality is unnecessary and board area permits SO-8 instead of MSOP. |
Compared with LT1317CMS8#TRPBF, the LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF trades light-load efficiency for ripple-free regulation-critical for precision analog systems-while both share identical pinout and compensation design. Against LT1307BCS8#TRPBF, it adds essential battery monitoring at no pin count or layout penalty.

FAQ
What is the primary functional difference between LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF and LT1317CMS8#TRPBF?
The LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF disables Burst Mode operation, maintaining continuous 600kHz switching even at light loads (≤50mA), which eliminates low-frequency output ripple but increases quiescent current to 7.5mA. In contrast, the LT1317CMS8#TRPBF enters Burst Mode below ~300µA load, reducing quiescent current to 100µA but introducing 1–10Hz ripple. Both share identical pinout, package, and compensation network requirements.
Can LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF operate from a single 1.5V alkaline cell?
Yes, LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF supports input voltages as low as 1.5V per the datasheet's absolute minimum specification. It starts reliably into full load (e.g., 200mA at 3.3V) from 1.5V input when paired with appropriate inductors (e.g., Sumida CD43-100) and low-VF Schottky diodes (e.g., MBR0520). Efficiency drops below 60% at 1.5V input but remains functional for short-duration operation.
What is the purpose of the LBI and LBO pins on LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF?
The LBI (Low-Battery Input) pin accepts a scaled-down battery voltage, comparing it against an internal 200mV reference. When LBI falls below this threshold, the open-collector LBO (Low-Battery Output) pin pulls low to signal battery depletion. Critically, this detector remains active during shutdown (SHDN = 0V), enabling host microcontrollers to monitor battery health without powering the full converter.
How should the VC pin be configured for optimal transient response with a 10µF ceramic output capacitor?
For a 10µF ceramic output capacitor, the LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF requires reduced compensation values versus the standard 33kΩ/3.3nF network. Figure 4 in the datasheet specifies RC = 20kΩ and CC = 1500pF for 2V→3.3V conversion. An additional 100pF capacitor from VC to GND is recommended to improve noise immunity and stability near current limit.
Is LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF pin-compatible with LT1307B series devices?
Yes, LT1317BCMS8#TRPBF is explicitly stated as pin-for-pin compatible with LT1307/LT1307B in the datasheet's FEATURES section. Both share identical MS8/SO-8 pinouts, pin functions (VC, FB, SHDN, GND, SW, VIN, LBI, LBO), and recommended external component values-enabling drop-in replacement where Burst Mode is not required and low-battery detection is desired.
