Product details
Overview
LT1613CS5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 1.4MHz current-mode step-up DC/DC converter in a 5-lead SOT-23 package, designed for ultra-low-input-voltage battery-powered systems. It operates from as low as 1.1V input, delivers up to 34V output, supports 300mA switch current, and achieves 5V at 200mA from a 3.3V supply - ideal for compact portable power rails in digital cameras and medical diagnostics.
For engineers reviewing the LT1613CS5#TRPBF datasheet, LT1613CS5#TRPBF pinout, LT1613CS5#TRPBF application, or LT1613CS5#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed boost/SEPIC operating parameters, real-world efficiency curves across input voltages (1.5V–5V), and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts with documented functional differences.
Technical Context
The LT1613CS5#TRPBF implements a fixed-frequency (1.0–1.8MHz typ.) current-mode PWM architecture with internal compensation, enabling stable regulation without external loop components. Its 36V-rated high-side NPN switch (VCESAT = 300mV @ 300mA) supports boost, SEPIC, and flyback topologies with duty cycle up to 86%.
It features a precision 1.23V feedback reference (±2.5% over temp), shutdown current <1µA, and operates across –40°C to 85°C (extended commercial grade). The device integrates oscillator, error amplifier, ramp generator, and current-sense comparator - all optimized for minimal external component count in space-constrained designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 1.4MHz typical - enables use of sub-3mm-height inductors and ceramic capacitors, reducing board area to <0.2 in². |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.1V to 10V - supports single-cell alkaline (1.5V), NiMH (1.2V), or Li-ion (2.7–4.2V) without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage Range | Up to 34V - achieved via external resistor divider; no internal voltage limit beyond 36V switch rating. |
| Switch Current Limit | 550–800mA - sets maximum deliverable load current in boost mode; determines inductor saturation margin. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.23V ±2.5% - defines output accuracy; VOUT = 1.23V × (1 + R1/R2); enables precise 5V, 12V, 15V, or negative rail generation. |
| Shutdown Current | <1µA at VIN = 2–5V - preserves battery life in standby; SHDN pin threshold is 1V high / 0.3V low. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for extended commercial applications including portable medical and industrial sensors. |
Pinout & Package
LT1613CS5#TRPBF is housed in a 5-lead plastic SOT-23 package (JEDEC MO-178AA, EIAJ SC-74A), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, with gull-wing leads and RoHS-compliant matte tin plating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (Pin 1) | Switch collector node | Connects to inductor/diode junction; carries high di/dt switching current - minimize trace area to reduce EMI. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power and signal ground | Must tie directly to local ground plane; serves as return path for switch current and FB reference - single-point grounding critical. |
| FB (Pin 3) | Feedback input | Monitors divided output voltage; internal 1.23V reference - external R1/R2 set VOUT; sensitive to noise - keep trace short and away from SW. |
| SHDN (Pin 4) | Enable/disable control | Logic-level input: ≥1V enables regulator; ≤0.3V disables with <1µA quiescent draw - compatible with microcontroller GPIO. |
| VIN (Pin 5) | Input supply | Accepts 1.1–10V; requires local 15µF tantalum or low-ESR ceramic bypass within 5mm - prevents instability and startup failure. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internally compensated current-mode control | Eliminates need for external compensation network - reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity while ensuring stability with ceramic or tantalum outputs. |
| Ultra-low minimum input voltage | 1.1V operation enables direct regulation from single alkaline/NiMH cells - avoids inefficient linear pre-regulators or charge pumps. |
| High-voltage 36V switch | Supports 34V boost outputs and SEPIC/flyback topologies - replaces discrete transistor+driver solutions in multi-rail bias supplies. |
| 1.4MHz fixed-frequency switching | Enables use of 2.2–22µH inductors ≤3mm height and 1–22µF ceramic/tantalum caps - cuts solution size vs. kHz-range converters. |
| Sub-1µA shutdown current | Extends battery runtime in intermittent-use devices like pagers and modems - SHDN pin draws only 25–50µA when active. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1615ES5#TRPBF | Higher max input (20V), lower IQ (20µA), but 600kHz switching - larger magnetics required. | Better suited for 2-cell Li-ion (up to 8.4V) inputs; less optimal for single-cell sub-1.5V start-up. | Select LT1615ES5#TRPBF when input exceeds 10V or ultra-low quiescent current is prioritized over size. |
| LT1307CS5#TRPBF | 600kHz fixed frequency, 3.3V/75mA output from 1V - lower output capability and no SEPIC support. | Limited to low-power logic rails; cannot generate >5V or negative outputs without additional circuitry. | Choose LT1307CS5#TRPBF only for simple 3.3V point-of-load where 75mA suffices and board area is secondary. |
Compared with LT1613CS5#TRPBF, LT1615ES5#TRPBF trades higher voltage capability and lower IQ for reduced switching frequency and larger passive components, while LT1307CS5#TRPBF offers simpler integration at the cost of output flexibility and peak current delivery - making LT1613CS5#TRPBF the optimal balance of miniaturization, topology versatility, and single-cell compatibility.

FAQ
What input voltage range does the LT1613CS5#TRPBF support?
The LT1613CS5#TRPBF supports an input voltage range of 1.1V to 10V, with guaranteed operation down to 1.1V - enabling direct regulation from single alkaline, NiMH, or Li-ion cells. Absolute maximum VIN is 10V; exceeding this risks permanent damage. The device maintains regulation across the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range within these limits.
Can the LT1613CS5#TRPBF be used in SEPIC topology?
Yes, the LT1613CS5#TRPBF is explicitly qualified for SEPIC operation, as confirmed in its datasheet Figure 3 and Typical Applications section. Its 36V switch rating, 86% max duty cycle, and current-mode control enable stable regulation where output voltage may be higher or lower than input - e.g., generating 5V from 3–10V input. External coupled or uncoupled inductors (e.g., 22µH) are required.
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with LT1613CS5#TRPBF?
The LT1613CS5#TRPBF supports output voltages up to 34V, constrained by its 36V-rated internal switch. This is achieved using an external resistor divider on the FB pin (VOUT = 1.23V × (1 + R1/R2)). The device has been validated in applications delivering 15V/60mA from four alkaline cells and 16V/20mA from Li-ion - all with confirmed stability and efficiency.
Does LT1613CS5#TRPBF require external compensation components?
No, the LT1613CS5#TRPBF features fully internal compensation, eliminating the need for external RC networks. Its current-mode architecture with integrated ramp generator and error amplifier ensures stability with standard tantalum or ceramic output capacitors. When using low-ESR ceramics, a phase-lead capacitor (e.g., 330pF) in series with a 10kΩ resistor to FB is recommended to restore phase margin.
What package type and lead finish does LT1613CS5#TRPBF use?
The LT1613CS5#TRPBF uses a 5-lead plastic SOT-23 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), with dimensions 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm.
