Product details
Overview
LT1767EMS8E-2.5#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 2.5V output, 0.22Ω internal NPN switch, 2% output tolerance, and operation from 3V to 25V input. It delivers high efficiency in compact battery-powered systems and wall adapters.
For engineers reviewing the LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF datasheet, LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF pinout, LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF application, or LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, confirmed alternative parts with documented differences, and supply support for production ramp-up.
Technical Context
The LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control with cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting and an internal 1.25MHz oscillator. Its bipolar NPN power switch is driven via the BOOST pin to achieve saturation, reducing conduction loss to ~330mV at 1.5A.
Feedback regulation uses a precision 1.2V reference; for the -2.5 variant, internal resistor divider sets VOUT = 2.5V ±2%, eliminating external components. Shutdown reduces quiescent current to 6µA, and SYNC allows external synchronization up to 2MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.5V ±2% - eliminates need for external feedback resistors; ensures stable rail for low-voltage logic and analog circuitry. |
| Switch Current Limit | 1.5A minimum - supports continuous 1.2A+ output under thermal derating; enables compact inductor selection (e.g., 2.2–4.7µH). |
| Switching Frequency | 1.25MHz typical - permits use of small chip inductors and ceramic capacitors; reduces EMI filter size vs. lower-frequency buck converters. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3V to 25V - accommodates Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), 5V/12V/24V industrial rails, and unregulated wall adapters without pre-regulation. |
| Efficiency Enabling Feature | 0.22Ω on-resistance switch - achieves >85% efficiency at 1A load (12V→2.5V); minimizes thermal rise in exposed-pad MS8E package. |
| Shutdown Current | 6µA max - extends battery life in portable devices during sleep mode; enables low-power system-level wake-up sequencing. |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 40°C/W (MS8E) - requires PCB copper pour under exposed pad; enables 1.5A operation at +85°C ambient with minimal heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF uses an 8-lead plastic MSOP package with exposed thermal pad (MS8E), rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature. The exposed pad is electrically connected to GND and must be soldered to ≥1 cm² copper area for thermal 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 tied to VOUT or VIN; critical for <330mV switch drop. |
| 2: VIN | Main power input | Supplies internal bias regulator and collector of NPN switch; must be bypassed with low-ESR ceramic cap ≤5mm from pin to minimize dI/dt spikes. |
| 3: SW | Switch emitter node | Drives inductor; swings from ~0V to VIN during operation; requires Schottky catch diode (e.g., UPS120) clamped to GND. |
| 4: GND | Power and signal reference | Reference for FB, VC, SHDN; exposed pad connection point; must tie directly to PCB ground plane to ensure load regulation and thermal performance. |
| 5: SYNC | External clock sync input | Logic-compatible input (1.5–2MHz range); grounds when unused; enables EMI reduction via frequency dithering or system clock alignment. |
| 6: VC | Error amplifier output / current limit control | 0.35V–0.9V range reflects load demand; used for loop compensation or external current limiting; drives shutdown if pulled to GND. |
| 7: FB | Feedback sense input | Internally connected to 2.5V output; no external divider needed; monitors regulation accuracy; enables current foldback below 0.5V during fault. |
| 8: SHDN | Enable/disable control | 1.33V threshold; pulls high internally (3µA source); enables UVLO configuration with resistor divider; 6µA shutdown current achieved when <1.27V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Monolithic 1.5A NPN switch | Integrates power transistor and driver in MS8E package-eliminates external MOSFET, gate driver, and bootstrap circuitry. |
| Constant 1.25MHz switching | Enables consistent EMI profile and predictable filter design; avoids variable-frequency artifacts like Burst Mode noise. |
| Exposed thermal pad (MS8E) | Reduces θJA from 110°C/W (MS8) to 40°C/W-supports full 1.5A load at +85°C ambient with standard 2-layer PCB. |
| Current-mode control | Delivers fast transient response to load steps (<10µs recovery) and inherent cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection without sensing resistors. |
| Fixed 2.5V output with 2% tolerance | Guarantees compliance with 2.5V I/O standards (e.g., DDR SDRAM, LVDS receivers) without calibration or trimming. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3605EDE-2.5#PBF | 2.25MHz switching, 1.2A max, integrated MOSFETs, 2.5V fixed, 20V max input | Higher frequency enables smaller magnetics but lower current rating; requires different compensation network | Select for ultra-compact designs where 1.2A suffices and 20V input ceiling is acceptable. |
| TPS54227DDAR | 2.2MHz, 2A, 17V max input, adjustable output (requires external resistors), no BOOST pin | Higher current and wider input range, but lacks fixed 2.5V option and BOOST-assisted saturation | Select when adjustable output or >1.5A capability is required; avoid if 2.5V precision and minimal BOM are priorities. |
Compared with LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF, LTC3605EDE-2.5#PBF offers higher frequency but lower current, while TPS54227DDAR provides greater current headroom and input range but sacrifices fixed-output simplicity and BOOST-enhanced efficiency at low duty cycles.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF?
The LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF guarantees a minimum switch current limit of 1.5A across its full operating temperature range. Maximum continuous output current depends on thermal conditions: with proper PCB copper pour on the exposed pad, it delivers ≥1.2A at +85°C ambient. At +25°C with adequate heatsinking, full 1.5A is sustainable. Derating curves in the datasheet define exact limits per ambient temperature and airflow.
Does the LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF require external feedback resistors?
No. The LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF integrates the resistor divider for 2.5V output; the FB pin is internally connected to the output. This eliminates external components, reduces layout sensitivity, and ensures factory-trimmed 2% output tolerance. External resistors are only needed for the adjustable LT1767 version.
Can the LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF operate from a 3.3V input?
Yes. The LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF supports input voltages from 3V to 25V. At 3.3V input, the minimum duty cycle (~76%) remains within safe operating limits, and the BOOST pin must be tied to VOUT (2.5V) to maintain sufficient gate drive for the internal NPN switch. Efficiency remains >80% at 500mA load.
What is the purpose of the BOOST pin on the LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF?
The BOOST pin supplies elevated voltage to the internal NPN switch driver, enabling saturation and minimizing on-state voltage drop to ~330mV. It requires a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor and Schottky diode (e.g., CMDSH-3) connected between BOOST and either VOUT or VIN. Without BOOST, switch loss increases significantly, degrading efficiency and thermal performance.
Is the LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes. The "#PBF" suffix in LT1767EMS8E-2.5#PBF denotes lead-free finish and RoHS compliance. The device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) and is qualified for reflow soldering per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020. Full compliance documentation is available from Analog Devices' product page.
