Product details
Overview
LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower step-down DC/DC converter with integrated 400mA bipolar NPN power switch, designed for wide-input industrial and battery-powered systems. It operates from 3.2V to 34V input, delivers up to 300mA at 3.3V or 5V output, features 12μA quiescent current, Burst Mode® operation, and uses a low-profile 6-lead (2mm × 3mm) DFN package with exposed ground pad.
For engineers reviewing the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF datasheet, LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF pinout, LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF application, or LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed efficiency curves across load and temperature, real-world component selection guidance for inductors and capacitors, and direct alternative options for 3.3V/5V micropower buck regulation in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF employs Burst Mode® control with fixed 1.8μs off-time and regulated on-time to maintain regulation while minimizing quiescent current. Its internal bipolar NPN switch achieves 200mV VCE(SAT) at 300mA in the DFN package, enabling high efficiency down to light loads.
Feedback regulation targets 1.25V at the FB pin with ±10mV hysteresis; shutdown disconnects internal circuitry to <1μA VIN current. The BOOST pin requires external diode and capacitor to generate >2.5V above SW for full switch saturation, critical for stable operation at low duty cycles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.2V to 34V - supports 4-cell alkaline, 5V rails, wall adapters, and lead-acid batteries without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current Capability | Up to 300mA - enables single-stage conversion for moderate-power microcontrollers or sensors in portable equipment. |
| Quiescent Current | 12μA - sustains >1-year battery life in standby mode for remote IoT nodes powered by AA/AAA cells. |
| Shutdown Current | <1μA - fully isolates load from source, eliminating parasitic drain in always-off system states. |
| Switch VCE(SAT) | 200mV at 300mA (DFN package) - reduces conduction loss and thermal rise under full load, supporting compact thermal design. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.25V ±2% - sets precise output via resistor divider; enables accurate 3.3V (R1/R2 = 1.64) or 5V (R1/R2 = 3.0) regulation. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments including automotive cabin electronics and factory automation controllers. |
Pinout & Package
LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF is housed in a 6-lead (2mm × 3mm × 0.8mm) plastic DFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 7), which must be soldered to PCB ground for thermal and electrical performance. The package offers 73.5°C/W θJA and 12°C/W θJC, enabling higher power density than TSOT-23 variants.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BOOST (Pin 1) | Charge pump drive node | Must be ≥2.5V above SW to fully saturate internal NPN switch; connects to external diode/capacitor network for bootstrapping. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Power and signal reference | Primary ground return for feedback divider, internal regulators, and power switch emitter; ties to exposed pad (Pin 7). |
| FB (Pin 6) | Regulation sense input | Monitored at 1.25V reference; output voltage set by R1/R2 divider; hysteresis enables Burst Mode® switching transitions. |
| SHDN (Pin 4) | Enable/disable control | Logic-high ≥2.3V enables operation; grounded disables all circuitry except leakage (<1μA); floating not recommended. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main power input | Supplies internal bias and switch collector; requires local 2.2μF ceramic bypass; withstands 34V absolute max. |
| SW (Pin 2) | Switch node output | Connects to inductor, catch diode cathode, and boost capacitor anode; swings between VIN and ~–0.4V during operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Burst Mode® Operation | Maintains >85% efficiency at 100μA load by pulsing energy delivery-critical for battery longevity in intermittent-sensing applications. |
| Wide Input Range (3.2V–34V) | Eliminates need for upstream pre-regulators in multi-source systems (e.g., dual battery + USB input), reducing BOM count and board area. |
| Low 12μA Quiescent Current | Enables direct connection to primary battery without dedicated power switches-simplifies architecture in wearables and medical patches. |
| Integrated 400mA Switch | Removes external MOSFET and gate driver, cutting solution size by >40% versus discrete buck controllers in DFN footprint. |
| Exposed Thermal Pad (Pin 7) | Reduces junction-to-board thermal resistance to 12°C/W-supports continuous 300mA output at 85°C ambient without derating. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3642EMSE#PBF | Higher 40V input rating, 200mA output, 2.5μA IQ, synchronous rectification | Better suited for 28V industrial rails; lower output current limits use in high-load scenarios | Select when ultra-low IQ (<5μA) and synchronous efficiency >90% at 10mA are required; requires different layout due to MSOP-10 package |
| TPS62840DLCR | 2.7V–6.5V input, 300mA output, 0.35μA IQ, integrated inductor option | Only valid for low-input systems (e.g., single Li-ion); lacks 34V surge tolerance | Choose for space-constrained consumer wearables where input never exceeds 6.5V; incompatible with automotive or 24V industrial inputs |
Compared with LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF, LTC3642EMSE#PBF offers superior input ruggedness but reduced output current, while TPS62840DLCR achieves dramatically lower quiescent current at the cost of input voltage range-making LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF the only option covering 3.2V–34V with 300mA capability in a 2mm×3mm DFN.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF?
The LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF supports up to 300mA of continuous output current when configured for 3.3V or 5V regulation with appropriate external components-including a 47μH inductor and 100μF output capacitor. This rating assumes operation within the –40°C to +85°C temperature range and proper thermal management via the exposed ground pad.
Does the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF require an external catch diode?
Yes, the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF requires an external Schottky catch diode (e.g., ON Semiconductor MBR0540) connected between SW and GND. The device lacks synchronous rectification, so the diode provides the return path for inductor current during switch-off time-omitting it will cause failure.
Can the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF operate from a 3.3V input to generate 3.3V output?
No-the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF cannot regulate 3.3V output from a 3.3V input due to its minimum input requirement of 3.2V plus headroom for switch drop and diode forward voltage. For 3.3V-in/3.3V-out applications, a low-dropout linear regulator or buck-boost topology is required instead.
How does the BOOST pin function in the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF circuit?
The BOOST pin on the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF supplies gate drive voltage to the internal bipolar NPN switch. It must be held ≥2.5V above the SW pin using an external diode and capacitor; insufficient BOOST voltage causes incomplete switch saturation, increasing VCE(SAT) and reducing efficiency-especially at high duty cycles.
Is the LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF pin-compatible with the LT1934ES6#TRMPBF?
No-LT1934EDCB#TRMPBF (6-lead DFN) and LT1934ES6#TRMPBF (6-lead TSOT-23) share identical functionality and pin numbering but differ physically: DFN uses a 2mm×3mm body with exposed thermal pad (Pin 7), while TSOT-23 uses a 3mm×1.7mm body without thermal pad. PCB layout and thermal design are not interchangeable.
