Product details
Overview
LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic 1.25MHz, 1.5A step-down switching regulator in an exposed-pad MSOP-8E package, featuring a fixed 1.8V output, 0.22Ω internal NPN switch, 2% output tolerance, and operation from 3V to 25V input. It delivers high efficiency in space-constrained battery-powered systems and wall adapters.
For engineers reviewing the LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF datasheet, LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF pinout, LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF application, or LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its constant-frequency current-mode control, thermal performance enabled by the exposed GND pad, synchronization capability up to 2MHz, and fixed-output configuration eliminating external feedback resistors.
Technical Context
The LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF implements a current-mode buck architecture with cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting and a 1.25MHz internal oscillator. Its bipolar NPN power switch is driven via the BOOST pin to achieve low on-resistance (0.22Ω typ.) and high saturation efficiency across input voltages from 3V to 25V.
Feedback is internally configured for 1.8V output - the FB pin is tied directly to VOUT, eliminating external resistor networks. The VC pin serves as both error amplifier output and current limit threshold reference, enabling loop compensation and optional current clamping.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8V ±2% over temperature and line/load - eliminates need for external feedback divider and ensures stable low-voltage core supply. |
| Switch Current Limit | 1.5A minimum at 0°C–125°C - enables robust 1.2A continuous output under thermal derating, supporting portable computing loads. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.25MHz typical (1.1–1.5MHz over temp) - allows use of compact chip inductors (e.g., 2.2µH–4.7µH) and reduces input/output filtering footprint. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3V to 25V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), 5V/12V rails, and industrial 24V systems without external pre-regulation. |
| Shutdown Current | 6µA max - extends battery life in standby mode for handheld and IoT devices. |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 40°C/W (MS8E exposed pad) - enables 1.2A operation at +85°C ambient with minimal copper area, unlike 110°C/W MS8 variant. |
| Feedback Reference | Internally trimmed 1.764V–1.836V at FB pin - matches 1.8V output specification with no external components required. |
Pinout & Package
LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF uses an 8-lead plastic MSOP package with exposed GND pad (MS8E), optimized for thermal dissipation. The exposed pad must be soldered to a large PCB copper area for θJA = 40°C/W performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: BOOST | Boost capacitor drive node | Provides >VIN voltage to saturate internal NPN switch; requires 0.1µF ceramic cap and Schottky diode (e.g., CMDSH-3) tied to VOUT or VIN. |
| 2: VIN | Main power input | Supplies internal bias regulator and collector of NPN switch; must be bypassed with low-ESR ceramic cap placed adjacent to pin. |
| 3: SW | Switch emitter node | Drives inductor; swings from ~0V to VIN during operation; requires external catch diode (e.g., UPS120) to clamp negative swing. |
| 4: GND | Power and signal reference | Exposed pad is electrically connected to this pin; must be soldered to ≥1 cm² copper pour for thermal and ground integrity. |
| 5: SYNC | External clock synchronization input | Logic-level compatible (20–80% duty); accepts 1.5–2MHz signals to align switching frequency and reduce EMI in multi-rail systems. |
| 6: VC | Error amplifier output / current limit control | Sets peak switch current threshold (0.35V–0.9V range); used for loop compensation or external current limiting override. |
| 7: FB | Feedback input | Internally connected to 1.8V output; no external divider needed - simplifies layout and improves regulation accuracy. |
| 8: SHDN | Enable/disable control | Active-high logic input; 1.33V threshold enables precise undervoltage lockout (UVLO) when paired with resistor divider. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Monolithic 1.5A NPN switch | Integrated 0.22Ω on-resistance switch eliminates external MOSFET and driver, reducing BOM count and board area. |
| Constant 1.25MHz switching | Enables use of small, low-profile inductors (e.g., 2.2µH) and ceramic capacitors, cutting solution size vs. lower-frequency alternatives. |
| Exposed-pad MS8E thermal design | 40°C/W junction-to-ambient enables 1.2A continuous output at +85°C ambient with standard 2-layer PCB copper. |
| Current-mode control | Delivers fast transient response to load steps (e.g., CPU burst modes) and inherent cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection. |
| Fixed 1.8V output configuration | Removes FB resistor network, improving output accuracy (±2%), reducing component count, and eliminating layout sensitivity. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF?
The LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF delivers up to 1.2A continuous output current at +85°C ambient with adequate PCB copper area on the exposed pad. This is derived from its 1.5A minimum switch current limit, adjusted for thermal derating in the MS8E package's 40°C/W θJA configuration. At +25°C, full 1.5A is achievable with proper heatsinking.
Does the LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF require external feedback resistors?
No. The LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF integrates the feedback divider for 1.8V output; the FB pin is internally connected to VOUT. This eliminates external resistors, improves output accuracy to ±2%, and removes layout sensitivity - a key distinction from the adjustable LT1767 variant.
How does the BOOST pin function in the LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF?
The BOOST pin supplies elevated gate drive voltage to the internal NPN switch, enabling saturation and minimizing conduction loss (0.22Ω typ.). It requires a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor and Schottky diode (e.g., CMDSH-3); connecting the diode anode to VOUT generates ~VOUT+VIN, while connection to VIN yields ~2×VIN - subject to BOOST pin absolute max rating of 35V.
Can the LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes. The SYNC pin accepts logic-level signals from 1.5MHz to 2MHz with 20–80% duty cycle, allowing EMI reduction through frequency alignment in multi-rail systems. When unused, SYNC must be grounded to prevent noise coupling; floating the pin may cause erratic operation.
What thermal design guidance applies to the LT1767EMS8E-1.8#PBF's exposed pad?
The MS8E package's exposed pad is electrically connected to GND and must be soldered to ≥1 cm² of inner- or outer-layer copper with ≥4 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter) to internal ground planes. This achieves the specified θJA = 40°C/W and supports 1.2A continuous output at +85°C ambient without forced air.
