Product details
Overview
LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 5V fixed-output, 200kHz monolithic buck switching regulator with 1.5A peak switch current, 5.5V–60V input range, and integrated 0.2Ω NPN power switch. It delivers high efficiency in industrial power supplies and battery-charged systems requiring stable 5V rails from wide-input sources.
For engineers reviewing the LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF datasheet, LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF pinout, LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF application, or LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping, thermal-aware TSSOP-16 pin functions, confirmed 5V SENSE-based regulation, and two validated alternative parts for 5V buck conversion in high-voltage environments.
Technical Context
The LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF uses current-mode control with cycle-by-cycle current limiting and a dedicated 200kHz oscillator. Its internal NPN switch is driven via BOOST pin voltage boosting to ensure saturation across full duty cycle range, enabling low conduction loss (0.2Ω typical) even at high input voltages.
It features dual shutdown thresholds (2.38V UVLO and 0.4V deep shutdown), synchronous capability (228kHz–700kHz), and feedback foldback protection-reducing switching frequency below 0.8V FB/SENSE and current limit below 0.6V-to manage power dissipation during short-circuit events.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5V ±1.2% (SENSE pin directly connected to VOUT; no external divider required) |
| Input Voltage Range | 5.5V to 60V - supports 24V/48V industrial buses and automotive cold-crank transients |
| Switch Current Limit | 1.5A peak - maintained over full duty cycle range via patented circuitry |
| Switch On-Resistance | 0.2Ω typical - achieved via BOOST-driven saturation, reducing conduction loss vs. standard bipolar switches |
| Quiescent Supply Current | 2.5mA - enables efficient light-load operation without BIAS pin connection |
| Shutdown Current | 25μA - ensures ultra-low standby power in battery-backed systems |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz fixed - simplifies EMI filtering; externally synchronizable from 228kHz to 700kHz |
Pinout & Package
LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF is housed in a 16-pin thermally enhanced TSSOP package (FE grade) with exposed GND pad (Pin 17) soldered to PCB for improved thermal performance (θJA = 45°C/W, θJC = 10°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 8, 9, 16, 17) | Power and signal reference ground | Multiple GND pins + exposed pad reduce ground impedance and thermal resistance; load ground must tie directly to these pins for optimal regulation |
| SW (Pin 2) | Emitter of internal NPN power switch | Drives inductor; swings from near-VIN (on) to ~–0.8V (off); requires external catch diode clamping |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Collector of internal NPN switch & primary supply | Supplies internal bias when BIAS pin unused; high dI/dt path requires short trace to input capacitor and SW |
| BOOST (Pin 6) | Switch driver boost supply node | Connected to external capacitor+diode network to generate >VIN voltage for switch saturation; minimum boost voltage = 1.8V @ ISW ≤ 1.5A |
| BIAS (Pin 10) | Efficiency-optimized auxiliary supply input | When tied to regulated 5V output, shifts internal bias current from VIN to VOUT, improving efficiency at high VIN/light loads |
| VC (Pin 11) | Error amplifier output / current limit comparator input | Used for loop compensation; also serves as current clamp point (0.9V–2.1V range); can be driven to GND to disable switching |
| FB/SENSE (Pin 12) | 5V output sensing node | Fixed 5V version uses internal resistor divider; SENSE pin connects directly to VOUT; enables foldback protection below 0.8V |
| SYNC (Pin 14) | External clock synchronization input | Logic-level compatible (1.5V–2.2V min amplitude); accepts 228kHz–700kHz signals with 10%–90% duty cycle |
| SHDN (Pin 15) | Enable/disable control with dual thresholds | 2.38V threshold enables UVLO; 0.4V threshold forces micropower shutdown (25μA IQ) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide 5.5V–60V input range | Supports 24V/36V/48V industrial, telecom, and automotive battery systems without pre-regulation |
| Integrated 0.2Ω NPN switch | Eliminates need for external MOSFET and gate driver; reduces BOM count and layout complexity |
| Thermally enhanced TSSOP-16 | Exposed GND pad enables 10°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance for reliable 1.5A operation |
| Current-mode control architecture | Delivers fast transient response and inherent cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection without sense resistor |
| Frequency and current foldback | Reduces switching frequency and peak current during short-circuit events to limit IC and external component power dissipation |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF?
The LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 60V on the VIN pin. This allows reliable operation from 24V, 36V, and 48V industrial buses, including transient conditions like ISO 7637-2 load dump pulses. Operation above 60V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF require an external feedback resistor divider?
No. The LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF integrates the feedback divider for 5V output; the FB pin functions as a SENSE pin and must be connected directly to the regulated 5V output. External resistors are unnecessary and would disrupt the fixed 5V regulation accuracy.
How does the BOOST pin function in LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF?
The BOOST pin on LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF supplies elevated drive voltage to the internal NPN switch base, enabling saturation and achieving 0.2Ω typical on-resistance. It requires an external bootstrap capacitor and diode connected between VIN and BOOST; minimum boost voltage is 1.8V at 1.5A switch current.
What thermal considerations apply to LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF in continuous 1.5A operation?
The LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF uses a thermally enhanced TSSOP package with exposed GND pad (Pin 17). For continuous 1.5A operation at 60V input, the exposed pad must be soldered to ≥2 cm² copper area to maintain junction temperature ≤125°C. Thermal resistance is θJA = 45°C/W with proper PCB layout.
Can LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF synchronize to an external clock?
Yes. The LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF supports external synchronization via the SYNC pin, accepting logic-level inputs from 228kHz to 700kHz with 10%–90% duty cycle. This enables EMI reduction through frequency alignment and eliminates beat frequencies in multi-rail systems using LT1766EFE-5#TRPBF.
