Product details
Overview
LT1619ES8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a fixed-frequency current-mode PWM controller for low-side N-channel MOSFET–driven DC/DC converters, operating from 1.9V to 18V input, featuring 300kHz internal oscillator, 53mV current sense threshold, and Burst Mode operation. It supports boost, SEPIC, and flyback topologies in battery-powered and distributed power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT1619ES8#PBF datasheet, LT1619ES8#PBF pinout, LT1619ES8#PBF application, or LT1619ES8#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its rail-to-rail 1A N-channel driver, 140µA quiescent current, 15µA shutdown current, external synchronization up to 500kHz, and compatibility with MSOP-8 and SO-8 packages.
Technical Context
The LT1619ES8#PBF implements current-mode control using an internal slope-compensated ramp derived from a 300kHz oscillator, with leading-edge blanking (280ns) to reject gate-drive transients. Its error amplifier (transconductance: 80–260 µ℧⁻¹) drives the VC pin to regulate peak switch current via the current sense comparator.
It features dual-mode operation: continuous switching above ~10mA load and Burst Mode below that threshold-triggered by VC falling below VB-reducing light-load quiescent current to 140µA while maintaining regulation. The S/S pin serves as both shutdown input (threshold: 0.45V) and synchronization port (pulse amplitude ≥1V, max rise time 530ns at 3V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 1.9V to 18V - enables direct operation from single Li-ion, multi-cell alkaline, or 12V industrial rails without pre-regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 300kHz fixed (±80kHz over temp) - balances EMI, size, and efficiency; externally synchronizable up to 500kHz. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 53mV (typ), 40–66mV (min/max) - sets precise overcurrent limit; enables accurate RSENSE-based current limiting with minimal voltage drop. |
| Quiescent Current | 140µA (typ) - minimizes standby power loss in always-on battery systems. |
| Shutdown Current | 15µA (typ) - ensures ultra-low leakage during system sleep states. |
| Driver Output Current | ±1.5A peak - directly drives N-MOSFETs with ≤60nC gate charge; supports bootstrapped DRV for low-VIN enhancement. |
| Reference Voltage | 1.24V (typ), ±2% over temp - defines output voltage accuracy in feedback loop (VOUT = 1.24 × (1 + R1/R2)). |
Pinout & Package
LT1619ES8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SO package (SO-8), with gull-wing leads, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant, 1.27mm pitch, and 5.0mm × 6.2mm body size.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| S/S (Pin 1) | Shutdown / Sync Input | Active-low shutdown (threshold 0.45V); accepts external sync pulses ≥1V to align switching frequency. |
| FB (Pin 2) | Error Amplifier Inverting Input | Connects to resistor divider tap; senses output voltage for regulation; bias current ≤25nA. |
| VC (Pin 3) | Error Amplifier Output | Compensation node; controls peak switch current; requires RC network to GND for loop stability. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Analog & Power Ground | Common reference for all internal circuits; must connect to local ground plane with low-inductance path. |
| SENSE (Pin 5) | Current Sense Input | Connects to source of low-side N-MOSFET and RSENSE; includes 280ns leading-edge blanking. |
| GATE (Pin 6) | MOSFET Driver Output | Drives gate of external N-channel MOSFET; rail-to-rail swing with 1.5A drive capability. |
| DRV (Pin 7) | Driver Supply Rail | Provides pull-up for GATE; tied to VIN for non-bootstrapped operation or to VOUT for enhanced gate drive in low-VIN boost. |
| VIN (Pin 8) | Main Power Input | Supplies internal circuitry; bypassed locally to GND; UVLO triggers at 1.65–1.85V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Burst Mode® Operation | Reduces light-load quiescent current to 140µA by disabling switching cycles until output droop triggers restart-critical for >100-hour battery life in IoT sensors. |
| Rail-to-Rail N-Channel Driver | Delivers ±1.5A peak current to drive low-side MOSFETs directly-eliminates need for external driver in 3.3V→5V boost designs with ≤60nC Qg devices. |
| Internal Leading-Edge Blanking | 280ns blanking window on SENSE pin prevents false current-limit triggering from MOSFET gate-charge spikes-improves reliability in high-dV/dt layouts. |
| External Synchronization Support | Accepts sync pulses up to 500kHz with defined rise-time limits (e.g., ≤530ns at 3V)-enables EMI reduction via frequency dithering or multi-phase coordination. |
| Separate DRV Pin | Allows bootstrapped gate drive (DRV → VOUT) for full enhancement of low-RDS(ON) MOSFETs even at VIN = 1.9V-essential for high-efficiency 3.3V→5V conversion. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PWM controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM3478MM/NOPB | Fixed 1MHz frequency; no Burst Mode; higher 2.5mA quiescent current; requires external slope compensation. | Better suited for compact, high-frequency designs where size dominates efficiency; lacks light-load optimization. | Select when board space is constrained and light-load efficiency is secondary to footprint and cost. |
| TPS40210DRCT | Adjustable frequency (100kHz–1MHz); no integrated current sense amp; requires external current-sense resistor and comparator; 1.2mA quiescent current. | Offers greater flexibility in frequency tuning and topology adaptation but increases BOM count and layout complexity. | Prefer when custom frequency or multi-topology support (e.g., buck-boost) is required and design resources allow added component count. |
Compared with LM3478MM/NOPB and TPS40210DRCT, LT1619ES8#PBF delivers superior light-load efficiency via Burst Mode and lower quiescent current, while integrating current sensing and slope compensation-reducing external components and layout sensitivity in space-constrained battery systems.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for LT1619ES8#PBF to start switching?
The LT1619ES8#PBF guarantees startup at 1.85V input voltage, enforced by an internal undervoltage lockout (UVLO) comparator with a 1.65V to 1.85V threshold range. Below this, the device halts switching and draws only 140µA quiescent current. This makes LT1619ES8#PBF suitable for single-cell Li-ion (2.7V–4.2V) and multi-cell alkaline (3V–6V) systems where low-VIN operation is essential.
Can LT1619ES8#PBF drive a high-gate-charge MOSFET like the SiR872DP?
LT1619ES8#PBF specifies ±1.5A peak driver output and supports MOSFETs with up to 60nC total gate charge. The SiR872DP has 105nC Qg, exceeding this limit. For such devices, an external gate driver is required-LT1619ES8#PBF can still provide PWM control signals, but the GATE pin must interface with a buffer stage. Always verify gate drive strength against Qg and desired switching speed in your LT1619ES8#PBF design.
How does Burst Mode operation affect output voltage ripple in LT1619ES8#PBF?
Burst Mode operation in LT1619ES8#PBF increases output voltage ripple compared to continuous conduction mode because energy is delivered in discrete bursts rather than continuously. Ripple magnitude depends on output capacitance, ESR, and burst frequency-which itself varies with input voltage, output voltage, inductance, and load. Typical ripple in Burst Mode may reach 2–3% of VOUT, versus <0.5% in CCM. Designers should select low-ESR ceramic or polymer capacitors and verify transient response in LT1619ES8#PBF applications.
Is LT1619ES8#PBF compatible with bootstrapped gate drive in a 3.3V-to-5V boost converter?
Yes-LT1619ES8#PBF explicitly supports bootstrapped operation via the DRV pin. In a 3.3V-to-5V boost, tie DRV to VOUT (5V) instead of VIN (3.3V) to ensure full gate enhancement of the low-side N-MOSFET, especially critical at low input voltages where VGS margin is limited. This configuration is validated in Linear Technology's Figure 1 and enables >90% efficiency at full load in LT1619ES8#PBF reference designs.
What is the purpose of the SENSE pin's leading-edge blanking in LT1619ES8#PBF?
The SENSE pin in LT1619ES8#PBF includes a fixed 280ns leading-edge blanking window that disables the current sense amplifier immediately after GATE turn-on. This prevents false overcurrent triggering caused by MOSFET gate-charge current flowing through RSENSE-a common issue in high-dV/dt switching. By ignoring this transient, LT1619ES8#PBF ensures accurate current limiting and stable operation, particularly with fast-switching MOSFETs and compact layouts.
