Product details
Overview
LT1765EFE#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic 3A, 1.25MHz current-mode step-down switching regulator in a thermally enhanced 16-lead TSSOP package. It integrates a 0.09Ω NPN power switch, internal bias regulator, and full cycle-by-cycle current control. Designed for high-efficiency DC/DC conversion from 3V–25V input to fixed 5V output, it delivers stable 3A continuous current in portable computers and battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT1765EFE#TRPBF datasheet, LT1765EFE#TRPBF pinout, LT1765EFE#TRPBF application, or LT1765EFE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its constant 1.25MHz switching frequency, 15μA shutdown current, 1.2V feedback reference, thermal performance with θJC(PAD) = 10°C/W, and synchronization capability up to 2MHz.
Technical Context
The LT1765EFE#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control using an internal 1.25MHz oscillator and dual-loop feedback: an error amplifier sets the peak switch current threshold via the VC pin, while a current-sense amplifier monitors switch current on a cycle-by-cycle basis. This architecture ensures fast transient response and inherent loop stability without external compensation complexity.
It employs a bipolar NPN power switch driven by a BOOST pin voltage ≥ VIN + 2.7V to maintain saturation, enabling high efficiency across wide input ranges (3V–25V). The internal 1.2V feedback reference and fixed 5V output configuration eliminate external resistor networks, and the SHDN pin provides precise 1.33V UVLO functionality with 7μA hysteresis current.

Pinout & Package
LT1765EFE#TRPBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic TSSOP package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 17). The package features dual VIN and dual VSW pins internally shorted, requiring external PCB shorting for optimal high-current path integrity and thermal conduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 8, 10, 16) | Power and signal ground reference | Must connect to low-impedance ground plane; all GND pins and exposed pad must be soldered to maximize thermal dissipation (θJC = 10°C/W) |
| BOOST (Pin 2) | Boost capacitor drive node | Supplies >VIN voltage to saturate NPN switch; requires 0.18μF capacitor and CMDSH-3 diode; minimum headroom = 2.7V above SW |
| VIN (Pins 3, 4) | Main input power supply | Connects to collector of internal NPN switch; both pins must be shorted externally; bypass with 1–4.7μF ceramic capacitor near pin |
| SW (Pins 5, 6) | Switch emitter output | Drives inductor; swings from ~0V to VIN; requires external catch diode (e.g., CMDSH-3) with VBR < 0.8V; both pins must be shorted externally |
| NC (Pins 7, 11, 14) | No-connect terminals | Not bonded internally; must remain unconnected on PCB to avoid parasitic coupling or thermal interference |
| SYNC (Pin 12) | External clock synchronization input | Logic-compatible (20–80% duty); locks internal oscillator to 1.6–2MHz; tie to GND if unused |
| VC (Pin 13) | Error amplifier output / current limit control | 0.4V–0.9V range reflects load; used for compensation or current clamping; driving to GND disables output |
| FB (Pin 15) | Feedback input | Internally connected to 5V output; no external divider needed; <5kΩ impedance required only if using foldback feature |
| SHDN (Pin 17) | Shutdown control input | 1.33V threshold enables precise UVLO; pull high or float for operation; sink current = –10μA when active |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3632EMSE#PBF | 4A rated, 3MHz switching, requires external feedback resistors; higher IQ (2.5mA) | Better suited for space-constrained designs needing >3A or >2MHz sync; less optimal for battery life-critical apps due to higher quiescent current | Select LTC3632EMSE#PBF when higher output current or faster transient response is required, and PCB area permits smaller inductors. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage configuration of the LT1765EFE#TRPBF?
The LT1765EFE#TRPBF is a fixed 5V output variant. Its feedback network is fully internal - the FB pin connects directly to the output, eliminating the need for external resistors. Output voltage is guaranteed at 5V ±1% over the full –40°C to 125°C junction temperature range, with typical accuracy of ±0.5% at 25°C. This differs from the adjustable LT1765 (no suffix), which requires an external resistor divider to set VOUT.
Does the LT1765EFE#TRPBF require an external catch diode, and what are the key specifications?
Yes, the LT1765EFE#TRPBF requires an external Schottky catch diode connected between SW and GND. The diode must withstand peak reverse voltage equal to VIN and conduct average forward current up to ~2.5A (calculated as IOUT × (VIN − VOUT)/VIN). The CMDSH-3 is explicitly recommended in the datasheet: 40V VRRM, 3A IF(AV), <0.45V VF at 3A, and low capacitance to minimize switching losses.
How is thermal management implemented for the LT1765EFE#TRPBF in high-current operation?
The LT1765EFE#TRPBF uses an exposed thermal pad (Pin 17) that must be soldered to a large copper plane to achieve its specified θJC(PAD) = 10°C/W. Layout requires short, low-inductance connections for VIN, SW, and GND pins; dual VIN and dual SW pins must be shorted externally on the PCB. Thermal performance is validated at 3A continuous load with ambient ≤125°C only when the exposed pad is properly connected to ≥1 cm² of internal/external copper.
Can the LT1765EFE#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock, and what are the valid frequency and interface requirements?
Yes, the LT1765EFE#TRPBF supports synchronization via its SYNC pin. It accepts logic-level signals (20–80% duty cycle) in the 1.6MHz to 2MHz range. The pin has 20kΩ input resistance and requires no external bias; it must be grounded if unused. Synchronization above 1.8MHz reduces internal slope compensation amplitude, so operation >1.8MHz is recommended only with inductors ≥2.2μH and VIN/VOUT ratios >2 to avoid subharmonic oscillation.
What is the purpose and connection method for the BOOST pin on the LT1765EFE#TRPBF?
The BOOST pin supplies a voltage higher than VIN to fully saturate the internal NPN switch, minimizing conduction loss. It is driven by a charge pump formed by a 0.18μF capacitor and CMDSH-3 diode, with the diode anode typically tied to the 5V output. The BOOST voltage must exceed SW by ≥2.7V during the on-time; if VOUT < 3.3V, an alternate boost source (e.g., VIN or dedicated LDO) is required to maintain saturation and efficiency.
