Product details
Overview
LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 500kHz monolithic buck switching regulator with integrated 4.5A NPN power switch, current-mode control, and fixed 5V output. It operates from 6V to 32V input, delivers up to 4.25A at 5V, and features cycle-by-cycle current limiting, thermal shutdown, and 20µA shutdown current. Used in battery-powered systems requiring compact, efficient DC/DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF datasheet, LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF pinout, LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF application, or LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its HV-rated 32V input capability, fixed 5V SENSE-pin configuration, exposed-pad SO-8 package thermal performance (θJA = 30°C/W), and compatibility with standard surface-mount magnetics and catch diodes.
Technical Context
The LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control using an internal 500kHz oscillator and dual feedback loops: one for output voltage regulation via the SENSE pin (5.0V ±1.2%), and another for cycle-by-cycle peak switch current sensing. Its bipolar NPN switch uses BOOST pin drive to achieve 0.07Ω on-resistance and >89% efficiency at full load.
It integrates undervoltage lockout (2.38V on SHDN), micropower shutdown (20µA), and optional synchronization (580kHz–1MHz range). The BIAS pin enables efficiency optimization by sourcing internal bias current from the regulated 5V output when VIN ≥ 10V, reducing input supply current by >10% at light loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 6V to 32V - Supports wide-input industrial and automotive battery systems without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0V ±1.2% - Internally trimmed SENSE pin eliminates external resistor divider, simplifying layout and improving accuracy. |
| Max Output Current | 4.25A at VOUT=5V, VIN=10V - Validated with 5µH inductor; derates to 3.7A at 80% duty cycle due to slope compensation. |
| Switching Frequency | 500kHz ±8% - Enables use of small 1.8–5µH inductors and low-ESR ceramic output capacitors. |
| Switch On Resistance | 0.07Ω (typ) at 4.5A - Achieved via BOOST-driven saturation, reducing conduction loss and thermal stress vs. conventional bipolar designs. |
| Shutdown Current | 20µA (max) at VIN ≤ 32V - Ensures ultra-low quiescent drain in battery standby mode. |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 30°C/W - Measured with 0.5 in² copper area on backside ground plane; enables 4.25A operation without forced air. |
Pinout & Package
LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SOIC package (S8) with exposed pad for enhanced thermal dissipation. The exposed pad must be soldered to a PCB ground plane to achieve θJA = 30°C/W.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input power collector | Supplies internal circuitry and powers NPN switch collector; requires local 100µF solid tantalum bypass near pin. |
| BOOST | Switch driver boost supply | Connected to VIN + 5V via external capacitor/diode; enables NPN saturation and 0.07Ω RON. |
| FGND | Power ground reference | Fused ground pin tied to exposed pad; must connect directly to large ground plane for thermal and EMI control. |
| VSW | Switch emitter node | Drives inductor; swings from GND to VIN during operation; requires low-inductance path to catch diode cathode. |
| VC | Error amplifier output | Controls peak switch current; used for loop compensation; clamps at 0.9V (off) and 2.1V (on). |
| BIAS | Efficiency-optimizing bias source | Accepts 3–7V external supply (e.g., 5V output); reduces VIN supply current by shifting bias sourcing. |
| SYNC/SHDN | Multi-function logic input | Configured as SHDN in this variant: 0.4V threshold forces micropower shutdown; 2.38V enables UVLO lockout. |
| SENSE | Fixed-output voltage sense | Internally connected to 5V output; replaces FB pin; provides 5.0V reference with ±1.2% tolerance over temperature. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Current-mode topology | Enables fast transient response and inherent stability with minimal external compensation components. |
| BOOST-driven NPN switch | Reduces switch conduction loss by 65% vs. non-boosted bipolar designs, enabling >89% efficiency at 4A. |
| Integrated cycle-by-cycle current limit | Guarantees 4.5A peak switch current protection independent of input/output conditions. |
| Thermal shutdown + UVLO | Prevents damage under overload or low-input conditions; 2.38V SHDN threshold ensures clean start-up above minimum VIN. |
| BIAS pin efficiency enhancement | Lowers total input supply current by >10% at VIN = 20V / IOUT = 25mA, critical for high-VIN portable applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3605EDE#TRPBF | 4A synchronous buck, 3–36V input, 5V fixed, 3MHz switching, no BOOST pin required. | Higher frequency enables smaller inductors but increases EMI sensitivity; lacks HV-rated 32V absolute max input. | Preferred for space-constrained designs needing <1µH inductors; not suitable for 32V transient environments. |
| TPS54332DR | 3.5A synchronous buck, 3.5–28V input, adjustable output, 600kHz, integrated FETs, no BIAS pin. | Lower max input (28V) and no BIAS pin reduce efficiency at high VIN/light load; requires external feedback resistors. | Cost-optimized alternative for non-HV 24V systems; requires additional components for fixed 5V output. |
Compared with LTC3605EDE#TRPBF and TPS54332DR, the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF uniquely combines 32V absolute maximum input, fixed 5V SENSE-pin simplicity, BOOST-enhanced efficiency, and BIAS-enabled high-VIN optimization-making it optimal for ruggedized, high-reliability 5V POL applications where input transients and thermal constraints dominate.

FAQ
What is the absolute maximum input voltage rating for the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF?
The LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 32V, confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This HV rating distinguishes it from standard LT1374 variants (25V max) and supports operation in 24V battery systems with transient overvoltage margins. Operation above 32V risks permanent damage to the internal NPN switch and bias circuitry.
Does the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF require an external feedback resistor network?
No, the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF does not require an external feedback resistor network because it is the fixed 5V output variant (-5 suffix), which uses an internal resistor divider and the SENSE pin instead of FB. The SENSE pin connects directly to the 5V output and provides a precision 5.0V ±1.2% reference without external components.
How does the BOOST pin function in the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF?
The BOOST pin in the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF supplies a voltage ~5V above VIN to the base drive of the internal NPN power switch, enabling deep saturation and achieving a typical on-resistance of 0.07Ω. It requires an external flying capacitor and Schottky diode (e.g., MBRS330T3) connected between VIN and BOOST to generate this boosted voltage during each switching cycle.
What thermal performance can be expected from the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF in SO-8 package?
The LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF achieves θJA = 30°C/W when its exposed pad is soldered to a 0.5 square inch copper area over an internal ground plane. This allows continuous 4.25A output at 5V with VIN = 10V and ambient temperature up to 85°C without forced airflow-verified in the Thermal Characteristics section of the datasheet.
Can the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock?
No, the LT1374HVIS8#TRPBF cannot be synchronized to an external clock because its pin 7 is configured as SHDN (shutdown), not SYNC. Only -SYNC variants (e.g., LT1374HVIS8-SYNC) replace SHDN with SYNC functionality. Attempting to drive pin 7 as a sync signal will trigger shutdown instead of synchronization.
