Product details
Overview
LT1766EGN-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 regulated 5V output for industrial power supplies, battery chargers, and distributed power systems requiring high-voltage tolerance and thermal robustness in SSOP packaging.
For engineers reviewing the LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF datasheet, LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF pinout, LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF application, or LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 5V output, 16-pin SSOP package with exposed ground pad, 25μA shutdown current, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, and external synchronization capability from 228kHz to 700kHz.
Technical Context
The LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF implements current-mode control with an internal 200kHz oscillator, enabling fast transient response and stable loop behavior across wide input and load variations. Its architecture integrates a saturating NPN switch driven by a BOOST pin voltage higher than VIN, achieving low conduction loss equivalent to a 0.2Ω FET while maintaining 1.5A peak current over full duty cycle range.
It features dual SHDN thresholds (2.38V UVLO and 0.4V deep shutdown), FB/SENSE pin functionality optimized for fixed 5V operation (with 4.90V–5.10V SENSE voltage tolerance), and patented circuitry that sustains peak switch current regardless of duty cycle-critical for high-step-down ratios at low output voltages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5V ±2% (SENSE pin tied directly to VOUT; no external divider required) |
| Input Voltage Range | 5.5V to 60V - supports 24V/48V industrial rails and automotive cold-crank transients |
| Switch Current Limit | 1.5A peak - sustained across full duty cycle, enabling reliable operation down to ~8% duty (5V/60V) |
| Switch On-Resistance | 0.2Ω typical - achieved via BOOST-driven saturation, minimizing conduction loss at high VIN |
| Shutdown Current | 25μA max - enables ultra-low-power standby in battery-backed systems |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz fixed (±12%) - balances EMI, inductor size, and efficiency; externally synchronizable 228–700kHz |
| Thermal Rating | Junction temperature range: –40°C to 125°C - validated for continuous operation in sealed industrial enclosures |
Pinout & Package
LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF uses a 16-lead plastic SSOP package (GN grade) with four corner GND pins and internal exposed ground plane connection (Pin 17 is GND, soldered to PCB). Thermal resistance θJA = 85°C/W, θJC (Pin 8) = 25°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 8, 9, 16) | Power and signal reference ground | Multiple low-inductance paths reduce ground bounce; must connect to PCB ground plane for thermal and regulation stability |
| SW (Pin 2) | Emitter of internal NPN power switch | Drives inductor; swings from –0.8V (clamped) to VIN during operation; requires catch diode and low-L layout |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Collector of internal NPN switch + bias source | Supplies control circuitry when BIAS pin is unconnected; high dI/dt node - demands short, low-inductance input path |
| BOOST (Pin 6) | Boost capacitor drive node | Generates >VIN voltage to saturate NPN switch; requires external capacitor+diode network (e.g., 100V ceramic + 1N4148W) |
| BIAS (Pin 10) | Efficiency-optimizing auxiliary supply input | When tied to VOUT ≥3V, shifts bias current from VIN to VOUT, improving efficiency at high VIN/light loads |
| VC (Pin 11) | Error amplifier output / current limit comparator input | Compensation node (typical 0.9–2.1V swing); can be clamped to force shutdown or override loop dynamics |
| FB/SENSE (Pin 12) | Fixed-output feedback sense input | Internally connected to 5V output; monitors VOUT directly; triggers foldback below 0.8V (freq) and 0.6V (current) |
| SYNC (Pin 14) | External clock synchronization input | Logic-level compatible (1.5–2.2V min); accepts 228–700kHz square wave; disables foldback when active |
| SHDN (Pin 15) | Enable/disable control with dual thresholds | 2.38V = UVLO start-up; 0.4V = deep shutdown; open-circuit defaults to enabled via internal bias current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 0.2Ω NPN switch with BOOST drive | Enables high-efficiency buck conversion at 60V input without external MOSFET or gate driver |
| Fixed 5V output with internal SENSE divider | Eliminates external resistor network, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity for standard 5V rail generation |
| Cycle-by-cycle current limiting | Provides inherent short-circuit protection without external sensing components or delay-compromised ICs |
| Frequency and current foldback below 0.8V/0.6V on SENSE | Reduces power dissipation in IC, diode, and inductor during output shorts - critical for reliability in unattended systems |
| Thermally enhanced SSOP with exposed GND pad | Supports 125°C continuous junction operation with standard PCB copper area; θJA = 85°C/W confirmed |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF?
The LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage (VIN) rating of 60V, with recommended operating range from 5.5V to 60V. This enables direct use in 48V industrial systems and automotive applications experiencing load dump transients. Exceeding 60V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does the LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF require external feedback resistors to set the output voltage?
No. The LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF is the fixed 5V variant - it contains internal resistor dividers connecting the SENSE pin to the regulated output. The FB/SENSE pin (Pin 12) is used solely as a direct output voltage monitor, eliminating external resistor networks and associated tolerance errors.
How does the BOOST pin function in the LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF?
The BOOST pin (Pin 6) provides a voltage higher than VIN to fully saturate the internal NPN power switch, reducing its effective on-resistance to 0.2Ω. It requires an external bootstrap capacitor and diode (e.g., 100V ceramic + 1N4148W) connected between BOOST and SW - critical for achieving specified efficiency and 1.5A current capability.
What are the two shutdown thresholds on the SHDN pin of the LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF?
The SHDN pin (Pin 15) has two distinct thresholds: 2.38V (typical) initiates undervoltage lockout (UVLO), disabling switching until VIN stabilizes; 0.4V (typical) forces deep micropower shutdown, reducing supply current to 25μA. Both thresholds are internally trimmed and guaranteed over temperature.
Can the LT1766EGN-5#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes. The SYNC pin (Pin 14) accepts logic-level square waves from 228kHz to 700kHz with 10%–90% duty cycle. When synchronized, the internal oscillator locks to the external frequency, enabling EMI reduction through deterministic noise placement in dense multi-regulator systems.
