Product details
Overview
LT1934ES6#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower step-down DC/DC converter with integrated 400mA bipolar NPN 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 low 200mV VCE(SAT) at 300mA - enabling high-efficiency regulation in space-constrained portable and automotive standby supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT1934ES6#TRPBF datasheet, LT1934ES6#TRPBF pinout, LT1934ES6#TRPBF application, or LT1934ES6#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed package mapping to TSOT-23-6, real-world efficiency curves, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts for 3.3V/5V micropower buck conversion.
Technical Context
The LT1934ES6#TRPBF uses Burst Mode® control with fixed 1.8μs off-time and regulated on-time to maintain output regulation across load currents from 0.1mA to 300mA. Its internal bipolar NPN switch is driven via a BOOST pin requiring external diode-capacitor charge pump to achieve full saturation - critical for low VCE(SAT) and high efficiency at light loads.
Feedback regulation targets 1.25V at the FB pin with ±10mV hysteresis; undervoltage lockout activates below ~3.2V; shutdown disconnects VIN current to <1μA. The device implements fast current limiting (400mA typical), thermal foldback, and fixed-frequency switching behavior that transitions into discontinuous conduction mode at light loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.2V to 34V - supports 4-cell alkaline, 5V rails, wall adapters, and 12V/24V automotive batteries without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | Up to 300mA - enables direct powering of microcontrollers, sensors, and RF modules from unregulated sources. |
| Quiescent Current | 12μA - extends battery life in always-on IoT nodes and remote sensors operating for years on coin cells. |
| FB Reference Voltage | 1.25V ±2% - sets precise output via resistor divider; enables stable 3.3V or 5V generation with <±1% accuracy over temperature. |
| VCE(SAT) | 200mV at 300mA - minimizes conduction loss and improves efficiency above 10mA load, especially critical in 3.3V/5V conversion. |
| Shutdown Current | <1μA - fully isolates load from input during deep sleep, eliminating parasitic drain in battery backup systems. |
| Switching Frequency | Variable (Burst Mode®) - reduces switching losses at light loads; maintains >70% efficiency down to 0.1mA output current. |
Pinout & Package
LT1934ES6#TRPBF is packaged in a 6-lead ThinSOT™ (TSOT-23-6) plastic package, 1mm profile, with exposed pad not present (DFN variant has exposed GND pad; TSOT-23 does not). Pin 1 is BOOST, Pin 2 is GND, Pin 3 is FB, Pin 4 is SHDN, Pin 5 is VIN, Pin 6 is SW - matching standard S6 marking layout and JEDEC MO-178AC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BOOST (Pin 1) | Charge-pump voltage supply for switch driver | Must be ≥2.5V above SW to saturate internal NPN; requires external 0.1μF capacitor + Schottky diode tied to SW or VOUT. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power and signal reference ground | Primary return path for feedback divider, internal regulators, and switch emitter; must connect to low-impedance local ground plane. |
| FB (Pin 3) | Feedback voltage sensing input | Regulated to 1.25V; sets output via R1/R2 divider; hysteresis enables stable Burst Mode® entry/exit without oscillation. |
| SHDN (Pin 4) | Enable/disable control input | Logic-high ≥2.3V enables operation; grounded disables all circuitry and reduces VIN current to <1μA. |
| VIN (Pin 5) | Main power input | Supplies internal bias and switch collector; requires local 2.2μF ceramic bypass; withstands 34V absolute max. |
| SW (Pin 6) | Switch collector node | Drives external inductor and catch diode; swings from VIN to ~−0.4V (diode clamp); carries peak 400mA pulsed current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide 3.2V–34V input range | Eliminates need for pre-regulators in automotive, industrial, and multi-battery systems - accepts raw lead-acid or wall transformer inputs. |
| 12μA quiescent current | Enables >10-year battery life in low-duty-cycle sensor nodes powered by CR2032 or AA alkaline cells. |
| Burst Mode® operation | Maintains >80% efficiency at 100μA load - essential for always-on monitoring circuits where standby power dominates lifetime energy use. |
| Integrated 400mA NPN switch | Reduces BOM count by eliminating external MOSFET; 200mV VCE(SAT) ensures minimal dropout and thermal rise at full load. |
| Low-profile TSOT-23-6 package | 1mm height enables ultra-thin designs in wearables, medical patches, and compact IoT edge devices. |
Applications
| Automotive Battery Regulation | Standby Power for Portable Products |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3642EDD#PBF | Higher 40V input, 350mA output, 4.5μA IQ, but requires external MOSFETs and compensation components. | Used where higher input voltage margin or adjustable frequency is required; not pin-compatible. | Select when needing >34V input tolerance or programmable soft-start; avoid if minimizing BOM count is critical. |
| TPS62840DRVR | Lower 1.8V–6.5V input, 1.8μA IQ, 600mA output, integrated inductor option; no BOOST pin or bipolar switch. | Optimized for single-cell Li-ion or 3.3V logic rails; unsuitable for 12V+ inputs or high-VIN industrial use. | Choose for ultra-low-IQ battery-only systems under 6.5V; reject for automotive or wall-adapter applications requiring >6.5V input. |
Compared with LTC3642EDD#PBF and TPS62840DRVR, the LT1934ES6#TRPBF uniquely balances 34V input capability, integrated bipolar switch, and 12μA quiescent current in a 6-pin TSOT-23 - making it the only option among the three that supports direct 24V automotive battery regulation without external FETs or complex compensation.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the LT1934ES6#TRPBF?
The LT1934ES6#TRPBF supports up to 300mA output current when configured for 3.3V or 5V regulation with appropriate external components (e.g., 47μH inductor, 100μF output capacitor). Its internal 400mA bipolar switch and 200mV VCE(SAT) ensure reliable delivery of this current with minimal thermal rise. Derating applies above 85°C ambient.
Does the LT1934ES6#TRPBF require an external boost capacitor and diode?
Yes - the LT1934ES6#TRPBF requires an external boost capacitor (typically 0.1μF ceramic) and fast-switching diode (e.g., 1N4148 or BAT54) connected between SW and BOOST pins. This forms a charge pump to generate a voltage >2.5V above SW, ensuring full saturation of the internal NPN switch and optimal efficiency.
What is the shutdown current specification for the LT1934ES6#TRPBF?
The LT1934ES6#TRPBF achieves <1μA shutdown current when the SHDN pin is pulled to GND. In this state, all internal circuitry is disabled and VIN current drops to near-leakage levels - critical for long-term battery preservation in maintenance-free IoT deployments.
Can the LT1934ES6#TRPBF regulate from a 3.3V input to a 2.5V output?
No - the LT1934ES6#TRPBF is a step-down (buck) converter with minimum input voltage limited by its ~3.2V undervoltage lockout and maximum duty cycle (~85%). It cannot produce a regulated 2.5V output from a 3.3V input. For such low-dropout requirements, a linear regulator or buck-boost topology would be necessary.
Which package type corresponds to the LT1934ES6#TRPBF part number?
The LT1934ES6#TRPBF uses the 6-lead ThinSOT™ (TSOT-23-6) plastic package, marked "LTXP", with operating temperature range –40°C to +85°C. This is distinct from DFN variants (e.g., LT1934EDCB#TRPBF) which use a 2mm × 3mm exposed-pad package and different marking codes.
