Product details
Overview
LT1371HVCR#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic 500kHz current-mode switching regulator IC with integrated 3A power switch, designed for boost, buck, flyback, inverting, and Cuk topologies. It features 42V switch breakdown voltage, 2.7V minimum input voltage, 1.245V reference voltage, and 12µA shutdown current - enabling high-efficiency DC/DC conversion in space-constrained laptop and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT1371HVCR#TRPBF datasheet, LT1371HVCR#TRPBF pinout, LT1371HVCR#TRPBF application, or LT1371HVCR#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its HV-rated 42V switch, negative output regulation capability via NFB pin, external synchronization range (600–800kHz), nonlinear error amplifier transconductance for reduced startup overshoot, and thermal design constraints of the 7-lead DD package.
Technical Context
The LT1371HVCR#TRPBF implements current-mode control with adaptive anti-saturation driver circuitry to minimize switch turn-off time and driver dissipation. Its oscillator operates at 500kHz (±50kHz), with frequency shifting (5:1 reduction) triggered when FB voltage drops below 0.6V - enhancing overload protection.
It integrates dual feedback paths: FB pin regulates positive outputs using a 1.245V internal reference, while NFB pin enables direct negative output regulation at –2.49V with –30µA input bias. The VC pin serves as error amplifier output, supporting frequency compensation, soft-start, and current limit adjustment via external RC networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 500kHz typical; enables use of compact 4.7µH inductors and reduces EMI filter size. |
| Switch Breakdown Voltage | 42V (HV variant); supports higher input rails and transient robustness in industrial 24V systems. |
| Reference Voltage | 1.245V at FB pin; sets output voltage via resistor divider with ±1.2% tolerance over temperature. |
| Negative Reference Voltage | –2.49V at NFB pin; allows direct regulation of negative outputs without external op-amps. |
| Quiescent Current | 4mA typical; minimizes no-load power loss in battery-powered applications like laptops. |
| Shutdown Current | 12µA typical; enables ultra-low-power standby mode for energy-sensitive designs. |
| Output Switch Current Limit | 3.0A minimum at 50% duty cycle; defines maximum deliverable load current before foldback. |
| Error Amplifier Transconductance | 1500µmho typical; provides high loop gain for tight regulation and fast transient response. |
Pinout & Package
LT1371HVCR#TRPBF is housed in a 7-lead plastic DD (R) package with exposed tab for thermal conduction. The tab is internally connected to GND and must be soldered directly to a ground plane for θJA = 30°C/W performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| TAB | Ground / Thermal Pad | Primary heat path; must be connected to large copper area for thermal management. |
| 1 - GND | Power Ground | Return path for internal regulators and logic; tie directly to ground plane. |
| 2 - VIN | Input Supply | Accepts 2.7V–25V; undervoltage lockout activates below 2.5V. |
| 3 - S/S | Shutdown & Sync | Logic-compatible dual-function pin: low = shutdown (12µA IQ); 600–800kHz AC = sync. |
| 4 - VSW | Switch Node | Collector of internal 3A NPN switch; carries high di/dt; requires shortest possible trace routing. |
| 5 - GND | Power Ground | Second ground connection; improves noise immunity and current return path separation. |
| 6 - NFB | Negative Feedback Input | Senses negative output via –2.49V reference; bias current = –30µA. |
| 7 - FB | Positive Feedback Input | Senses positive output via 1.245V reference; max loading = 250nA for stability. |
| 8 - VC | Error Amplifier Output | Compensation node: connects to RC network for loop stability, soft-start, and current limit control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-Voltage Switch | 42V breakdown rating enables operation from 24V industrial rails and withstands load-dump transients. |
| Negative Output Regulation | Integrated –2.49V NFB reference eliminates need for external inverting amplifier in dual-rail supplies. |
| Nonlinear Error Amplifier | Transconductance increases 10× when FB exceeds VREF by 40mV - suppressing startup/output recovery overshoot. |
| Oscillator Frequency Shifting | Reduces switching frequency 5:1 during overload (FB < 0.6V), limiting peak switch current and protecting external components. |
| External Synchronization | Accepts 600–800kHz logic-level sync signal on S/S pin - enables EMI reduction via fixed-frequency coordination. |
| Low Minimum Input Voltage | 2.7V start-up supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V) and 3.3V system rail inputs without pre-regulation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar switching regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3872-1 | Fixed 500kHz frequency, no frequency shifting; 40V switch rating; requires external MOSFET. | Lacks integrated 3A switch and negative output regulation; suited for higher-efficiency discrete FET designs. | Select when efficiency >92% is required and board space allows external FET + driver. |
| LM5122 | 42V rated, current-mode, but 100–750kHz adjustable frequency; no NFB pin; 5V VREF instead of 1.245V. | Cannot regulate negative outputs natively; requires external inverter circuit for dual-rail applications. | Prefer when programmable frequency and wide input range (3.5–60V) outweigh need for integrated negative regulation. |
Compared with LTC3872-1 and LM5122, LT1371HVCR#TRPBF uniquely combines 42V switch rating, integrated 3A bipolar switch, native negative output support, and frequency-shifting overload protection - making it optimal for compact, dual-polarity, industrial-grade DC/DC designs where component count and transient resilience are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the LT1371HVCR#TRPBF?
The LT1371HVCR#TRPBF supports a maximum supply voltage of 30V on the VIN pin. Its internal power switch has a guaranteed 42V breakdown voltage (BVSW), allowing safe operation with input transients up to 42V - a key differentiator from the standard LT1371 (35V). This makes LT1371HVCR#TRPBF suitable for 24V industrial systems with load-dump immunity requirements.
Can the LT1371HVCR#TRPBF regulate negative output voltages without external components?
Yes, the LT1371HVCR#TRPBF can directly regulate negative outputs using its dedicated NFB pin, which references –2.49V internally. When configured with an appropriate resistor divider on the NFB pin, LT1371HVCR#TRPBF achieves stable negative regulation - eliminating the need for external op-amps or inverting charge pumps. The FB pin remains unused in this configuration.
How does the LT1371HVCR#TRPBF handle overload or short-circuit conditions?
The LT1371HVCR#TRPBF employs two complementary protections: (1) pulse-by-pulse current limiting on its 3A switch, and (2) oscillator frequency shifting - reducing switching frequency 5:1 when FB voltage falls below 0.6V. This dual mechanism limits average power dissipation and prevents thermal runaway during sustained overload, unlike basic current-limit-only regulators.
What is the purpose of the VC pin on the LT1371HVCR#TRPBF, and how is it used?
The VC pin on LT1371HVCR#TRPBF is the error amplifier output and serves three critical functions: (1) frequency compensation (via RC network to GND), (2) soft-start (by coupling a capacitor to GND), and (3) current limit adjustment (by clamping VC voltage). During operation, VC voltage ranges from ~1.0V (light load) to ~1.9V (heavy load), directly controlling switch duty cycle.
Is the LT1371HVCR#TRPBF pin-compatible with other LT1371 variants?
Yes, LT1371HVCR#TRPBF shares identical pinout and footprint with all R-package LT1371 variants (e.g., LT1371CR, LT1371IR). The HV suffix denotes enhanced 42V switch rating but retains full electrical and mechanical compatibility - enabling drop-in replacement in existing designs where higher voltage margin is needed.
