Product details
Overview
LT1913IDD#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic current-mode step-down switching regulator supporting 3.6V to 25V input, delivering up to 3.5A output at adjustable 200kHz–2.4MHz switching frequency, with integrated 95mΩ NPN switch and on-die Schottky boost diode. It is used in automotive battery regulation, portable power supplies, and industrial distributed DC-DC conversion where wide VIN range and thermal robustness are required.
For engineers reviewing the LT1913IDD#TRPBF datasheet, LT1913IDD#TRPBF pinout, LT1913IDD#TRPBF application, or LT1913IDD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 0.790V feedback reference, power good flag with 91% threshold, soft-start via RUN/SS pin, thermal shutdown, and DFN-10 (3mm × 3mm) package with exposed GND pad for low θJC = 10°C/W.
Technical Context
The LT1913IDD#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control using an internal transconductance error amplifier (525 μ℧), slope-compensated PWM, and RS flip-flop oscillator synchronized by RT resistor. Its VC pin directly controls peak switch current with 5.3 A/V gain, while active clamping limits VC to prevent overcurrent.
Operation relies on external boost capacitor (0.47μF typical) to generate >2.3V above SW for full NPN saturation; bias can be sourced from BD pin when VBD ≥ 3V, improving efficiency. Frequency foldback reduces fSW during startup or overload to limit inrush and sustain regulation under fault conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.6V to 25V - supports automotive cold-crank (≥3.6V) and industrial 24V rail without external pre-regulation |
| Max Output Current | 3.5A continuous - limited by thermal design and inductor RMS rating; peak switch current up to 5.4A at low duty cycle |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 2.4MHz - set by RT resistor; enables tradeoff between inductor size (↑f → ↓L) and efficiency (↑f → ↑losses) |
| Feedback Reference | 0.790V ±15mV - precise reference enabling accurate output programming from 0.79V to 25V via resistor divider |
| Power Good Threshold | VOUT ≥ 91% of programmed value - open-collector PG flag asserts high only when regulation is stable and VIN > 3.6V |
| Shutdown Current | <1μA - achieved by pulling RUN/SS ≤ 0.2V; enables ultra-low-power standby in battery-powered systems |
| On-Resistance | 95mΩ - NPN switch RCE(SAT) at ISW = 3.5A ensures <335mV drop, minimizing conduction loss at high load |
Pinout & Package
LT1913IDD#TRPBF is housed in a 10-pin 3mm × 3mm plastic DFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 11), rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature. The exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal performance (θJC = 10°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BD (Pin 1) | Boost Diode Anode Supply | Connects to anode of internal Schottky; also powers internal bias regulator when VBD ≥ 3V |
| BOOST (Pin 2) | Boost Drive Voltage Node | Provides >VIN voltage to saturate NPN switch; requires external 0.47μF capacitor to SW |
| SW (Pin 3) | Switch Output Node | Drives external inductor and catch diode; carries full pulsed switch current and high dv/dt |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Main Input Power Supply | Supplies internal regulator and switch; requires local 10μF ceramic bypass close to pin |
| RUN/SS (Pin 5) | Enable & Soft-Start Control | Pull ≤0.2V to shut down (<1μA IQ); ramp with RC network for controlled VOUT rise |
| SYNC (Pin 6) | External Clock Input | Accepts 250kHz–2MHz square wave for synchronization; must not float |
| PG (Pin 7) | Power Good Open-Collector | Sinks current when VFB < 91% of target; requires external pull-up for logic-level signaling |
| FB (Pin 8) | Feedback Input | Regulated to 0.790V; connects to resistor divider tap for output voltage setting |
| VC (Pin 9) | Error Amplifier Output | Controls peak switch current; compensation network (RC + CC) connected here for loop stability |
| RT (Pin 10) | Oscillator Frequency Set | Resistor to GND sets fSW; e.g., 63.4kΩ → 600kHz per datasheet Figure 1 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Boost Schottky Diode | Eliminates external boost diode; reduces BOM count and layout area while ensuring reliable NPN drive |
| Current Mode Control | Enables fast transient response and inherent cycle-by-cycle current limiting without requiring output capacitor ESR |
| Programmable Soft-Start | Controlled VOUT ramp via RC on RUN/SS prevents inrush current and output overshoot during power-up |
| Thermal Protection | Internal shutdown activates if junction temperature exceeds safe limit; auto-recovery after cooldown |
| Synchronizable Switching | SYNC pin accepts external clock (250kHz–2MHz), enabling noise-sensitive systems to avoid EMI bands |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3631EMSE#PBF | 40V max VIN, 3A max IOUT, 3mm × 4mm MSOP; no integrated boost diode; requires external bootstrap cap | Better suited for higher-input industrial systems (>25V); lacks BD pin bias option for efficiency optimization | Select when input exceeds 25V or when board space allows larger MSOP and external diode |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT1913IDD#TRPBF?
The LT1913IDD#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage (VIN) rating of 25V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. It operates continuously over 3.6V to 25V input range. Transient inputs up to 25V are acceptable during normal regulation; however, during startup or overload, the safe maximum VIN depends on switching frequency and minimum on-time - consult the Applications Information section for the VIN(MAX) equation.
Does the LT1913IDD#TRPBF require an external boost diode?
No, the LT1913IDD#TRPBF integrates a Schottky boost diode on-die, connected to the BD pin. This eliminates the need for an external boost diode in standard configurations. The internal diode supports biasing the internal regulator from BD when VBD ≥ 3V, improving light-load efficiency.
How is the switching frequency set on the LT1913IDD#TRPBF?
The switching frequency of the LT1913IDD#TRPBF is set by connecting a resistor (RT) from Pin 10 (RT) to ground. Frequency ranges from 200kHz to 2.4MHz depending on RT value - for example, 63.4kΩ yields 600kHz. A full RT vs. fSW lookup table is provided in Figure 1 of the datasheet.
What is the function of the PG (Power Good) pin on the LT1913IDD#TRPBF?
The PG pin on the LT1913IDD#TRPBF is an open-collector output that signals when the FB pin reaches ≥91% of its regulated 0.790V reference. It remains low until output regulation is established and VIN exceeds 3.6V. An external pull-up resistor is required to generate a logic-high signal for system power sequencing or fault monitoring.
Can the LT1913IDD#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes, the LT1913IDD#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC pin (Pin 6). It accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible square waves from 250kHz to 2MHz. The pin must not be left floating; tie to ground if unused. Synchronization helps reduce EMI in multi-regulator systems by aligning switching edges.
