Product details
Overview
LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a fixed 5V, 4.5A monolithic buck switching regulator in an 8-pin SOIC package, featuring constant 500kHz current-mode operation, 0.07Ω internal switch on-resistance, 2.5mA typical operating supply current, and integrated cycle-by-cycle current limiting for portable computers and battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF datasheet, LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF pinout, LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF application, or LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, thermal performance data, shutdown behavior, feedback-sense interface details, and real-world inductor sizing guidance for 5V distributed power designs.
Technical Context
The LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF implements a current-mode control architecture with internal 2.42V reference and dedicated SENSE pin (replacing FB for fixed 5V output), enabling fast transient response and inherent loop stability without external compensation. Its bipolar NPN power switch uses BOOST pin voltage boosting to achieve saturation and low conduction loss.
It integrates undervoltage lockout (2.38V threshold), micropower shutdown (0.4V threshold), and optional synchronization capability (replacing SHDN on -SYNC variants). The device operates across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature and supports input voltages from 6V to 25V with 5V ±2% output regulation.

| Input Voltage Range | 6V to 25V (minimum start-up voltage ~5.5V, per test conditions) |
| Thermal Range | –40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature |
Pinout & Package
LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8) package with fused ground pin (FGND) for improved thermal dissipation (θJA = 80°C/W with FGND connected to ground plane).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input power collector | Supplies internal circuitry and powers NPN switch; requires local 100µF solid tantalum bypass |
| BOOST | Switch driver boost node | Connected to external capacitor/diode network to saturate internal NPN; must exceed VIN by ≥5V |
| FGND | Fused ground reference | Primary GND return; must be soldered to large copper area for thermal and EMI control |
| VSW | Switch emitter output | Drives external catch diode and inductor; clamped to –0.8V max during off-time |
| VC | Error amplifier output | Controls peak switch current; used for loop compensation or current clamp override |
| BIAS | Efficiency-boost bias input | Accepts regulated output (≥3.3V) to reduce VIN supply current and improve light-load efficiency |
| SYNC/SHDN | Multi-function logic input | On LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF: configured as SHDN (0.4V shutdown, 2.38V UVLO) |
| SENSE | Fixed-output feedback node | Direct connection to 5V output; replaces FB pin; enables 5V regulation without external divider |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Current-mode control | Enables stable operation with wide input/output ranges and fast load transient recovery (<10µs) |
| Integrated slope compensation | Prevents subharmonic oscillation up to 90% duty cycle without external components |
| BOOST-driven saturation | Reduces switch VCE(sat) to ~0.3V at 4.5A, cutting conduction loss vs. standard bipolar designs |
| Frequency foldback | Automatically reduces switching frequency 5:1 when SENSE <1V, limiting power dissipation during short-circuit |
| Two-threshold shutdown | Separate 2.38V (UVLO) and 0.4V (deep shutdown) thresholds enable precise input sequencing and ultra-low standby |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3866EFE#PBF | External MOSFET drive, 55V max input, no integrated switch; requires external FETs and compensation | Used in higher-power or wider-input applications where adjustable output and PMBus support are needed | Select only if >5A output, >25V input, or digital control are required; not drop-in compatible |
| MP2315GJ-Z | 40V max input, 3.5A integrated switch, 500kHz fixed frequency, but lacks BIAS pin and BOOST architecture | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer electronics where 5V/3.5A suffices and efficiency above 85% is acceptable | Choose for lower BOM cost and smaller footprint; verify thermal performance at 4.5A since rated max is 3.5A |
Compared with LTC3866EFE#PBF and MP2315GJ-Z, the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF uniquely combines 4.5A integrated switching, BOOST-enabled saturation for high efficiency at 5V, and –40°C to 125°C operation in a standard SOIC-8 - making it optimal for ruggedized 5V power delivery where layout simplicity and thermal reliability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF?
The LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF delivers up to 4.5A continuously at duty cycles ≤50% (e.g., VOUT=5V, VIN≤10V). At higher input voltages-such as VIN=15V (67% duty cycle)-the maximum switch current derates to ~4.3A per the nonlinear slope-compensation formula. Full 4.5A operation requires proper thermal design: FGND must connect to ≥1-in² copper area to maintain θJA ≤80°C/W.
Does the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF require external feedback resistors for 5V output?
No. The LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF uses an internal resistor divider and the SENSE pin (not FB) for fixed 5V regulation. The SENSE pin connects directly to the output, eliminating external resistors and associated tolerance errors. This configuration is factory-trimmed to deliver 5.0V ±2% across line, load, and temperature - confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Sense Voltage (Fixed 5V)".
How does the BOOST pin function in the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF?
The BOOST pin on the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF supplies a boosted gate drive voltage to the internal NPN switch, enabling saturation and reducing conduction loss to ~0.07Ω. It must be biased 5V above VIN via an external diode and capacitor. Without BOOST, switch VCE(sat) rises to ~1.5V, dropping efficiency from >89% to ~75%. The BOOST pin draws 90–140mA at 4.5A switch current, per the datasheet's Boost Current specification.
What is the purpose of the BIAS pin on the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF?
The BIAS pin on the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF allows the IC to draw bias current from the regulated 5V output instead of VIN, improving light-load efficiency - especially when VIN ≫ VOUT (e.g., VIN=20V, VOUT=5V). When BIAS is connected to 5V, VIN supply current drops by ~3.2mA, yielding >10% efficiency gain at 25mA load. BIAS requires ≥3.3V and is only available on SO-8 and TSSOP packages, not DD or TO-220.
Can the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock?
No - the standard LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF has SHDN functionality on Pin 7 (SYNC/SHDN). Synchronization requires the -SYNC variant (e.g., LT1374IS8-SYNC or LT1374IS8-5 SYNC), where Pin 7 is reconfigured as a logic-compatible SYNC input (10–90% duty cycle, 580kHz–1MHz range). Using an external clock on the LT1374IS8-5#TRPBF will force shutdown; always verify part marking (e.g., "374I5" = -5, "374ISN" = -SYNC) before board design.
