Product details
Overview
LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a fixed-output 1.8V, 20mA low dropout linear regulator with ultralow 3μA quiescent current, 300mV dropout at full load, and reverse-battery protection - designed for keep-alive power in battery-backed utility meters and remote monitoring nodes.
For engineers reviewing the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF datasheet, LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF pinout, LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF application, or LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (6-lead DFN), thermal performance data (θJA = 65–85°C/W), ±2% output tolerance over line/load/temperature, and validated shutdown behavior (<1μA IQ in SHDN mode).
Technical Context
The LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF uses an internal PNP pass transistor architecture enabling stable regulation down to 300mV input-to-output differential at 20mA. Its error amplifier references the SENSE pin to GND at 600mV, delivering fixed 1.8V output via factory-trimmed feedback. No external resistors are required.
It integrates reverse-battery protection (blocks current flow when VIN < 0V), reverse-current blocking (prevents backfeed from VOUT to VIN), thermal shutdown, and current limiting - all active across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range without derating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8V ±2% over line, load, and –40°C to 125°C - ensures reliable biasing of 1.8V logic and RF front-end ICs. |
| Max Output Current | 20mA continuous - sufficient for microcontrollers in sleep mode, real-time clocks, and sensor signal chains. |
| Dropout Voltage | 300mV at 20mA - enables operation from single-cell LiFePO₄ (2.0V min) or two alkaline cells (2.4V min) with margin. |
| Quiescent Current | 3μA typical at no load - extends battery life in multi-year deployments (e.g., >10 years on CR2032 at 1μA avg load). |
| Shutdown Current | <1μA - eliminates standby drain during system hibernation, critical for energy-harvesting designs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.0V to 45V - supports wide-input industrial rails, automotive transients, and legacy 24V/48V systems. |
| Output Capacitor | Stable with ≥2.2μF ceramic (low ESR) - eliminates need for tantalum or electrolytic, reducing BOM cost and footprint. |
Pinout & Package
LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 6-lead (2mm × 2mm) plastic DFN package with exposed GND pad (Pin 7). The package supports θJA = 65–85°C/W depending on PCB copper area and thermal vias.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SHDN (Pin 1) | Active-low enable input | Pulling ≤0.61V disables output; tied to VIN if unused; drives <2μA leakage - compatible with open-drain GPIO. |
| GND (Pins 2, 3, 4) | Power ground reference | Three dedicated GND pins minimize ground impedance; exposed pad (Pin 7) must be soldered to PCB for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| IN (Pin 5) | Input power supply | Accepts 2.0–45V; withstands –50V reverse input - protects against battery reversal or negative transients. |
| SENSE (Pin 6) | Output voltage sense node | Connected internally to OUT for fixed versions; enables Kelvin sensing at load for precision regulation under trace resistance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow quiescent current | 3μA no-load IQ enables >10-year battery life in always-on IoT sensors and metering applications. |
| Reverse-battery protection | Blocks conduction when VIN < 0V - eliminates need for external series diode, saving 300mV forward drop and board space. |
| Reverse-current blocking | Prevents backfeed from VOUT to VIN during input loss - safeguards upstream power sources and prevents system latch-up. |
| Thermal & current limiting | Auto-recovery shutdown at TJ > 125°C and foldback current limit at ~75mA - ensures robustness in unventilated enclosures. |
| Stability with ceramic caps | Operates with ≥2.2μF X5R/X7R ceramics - avoids aging, polarity, and ESR drift issues of tantalum/electrolytic capacitors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TNPS1818D-1.8 | Higher IQ (12μA), lower max input (20V), no reverse-battery protection | Suitable only for non-battery-reversal consumer applications with tighter input voltage constraints | Select if cost is primary concern and reverse protection is handled externally |
| MCP1703T-1802E/MB | Similar IQ (1.6μA), lower dropout (280mV @ 250mA), but rated only to 16V input and lacks reverse-current blocking | Better for high-current, low-dropout needs in 12V automotive subsystems without reverse-battery risk | Choose when higher output current (>20mA) is needed and input stays below 16V |
Compared with TNPS1818D-1.8 and MCP1703T-1802E/MB, the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF uniquely combines 45V input tolerance, reverse-battery protection, and sub-3μA IQ - making it the only option qualified for long-life, field-deployed, battery-reversible applications like smart meters and remote telemetry.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF?
The LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of ±50V on the IN pin, with a recommended operating range of 2.0V to 45V. This 45V upper limit ensures safe operation in 24V industrial systems subject to ISO 7637-2 transient pulses and 48V telecom backup rails. Exceeding 45V may trigger internal protection but is not guaranteed for continuous operation.
Does the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF require an external resistor divider to set the output voltage?
No, the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF is a fixed-output variant with factory-trimmed feedback. It delivers 1.8V without any external resistors. The SENSE pin (Pin 6) connects internally to OUT for regulation; external Kelvin sensing is optional for improved load regulation but not required for basic operation.
How does the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF behave during reverse-battery connection?
When VIN is driven below GND (e.g., battery inserted backward), the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF blocks current flow into the IN pin - acting like a series diode with zero forward conduction. No reverse current flows to the load, and VOUT remains at 0V. This behavior is inherent to the internal architecture and requires no external components.
Can the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF be used with a 2.2μF X5R ceramic capacitor?
Yes, the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF is explicitly characterized for stability with ≥2.2μF X5R or X7R ceramic output capacitors. Unlike many older LDOs, it does not require added ESR and remains unconditionally stable across temperature and DC bias - confirmed by manufacturer testing and typical performance curves in the datasheet.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF in its DFN package?
The LT3008EDC-1.8#TRPBF in the 6-lead (2mm × 2mm) DFN package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) ranging from 65°C/W to 85°C/W, depending on PCB layout - specifically, the amount of copper area connected to the exposed GND pad (Pin 7) and number of thermal vias. Full datasheet characterization assumes 2-inch² 2-oz copper with 4× thermal vias.
