Product details
Overview
LT3462AES6#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a fixed-frequency current-mode inverting DC/DC converter with integrated Schottky diode and 270mV VCE(SAT) switch, operating at 2.7MHz switching frequency, supporting 2.5V to 16V input and delivering up to –38V output in dual-inductor topology, used for LCD bias and GaAs FET bias applications.
For engineers reviewing the LT3462AES6#TRPBF datasheet, LT3462AES6#TRPBF pinout, LT3462AES6#TRPBF application, or LT3462AES6#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include switching frequency (2.7MHz), integrated Schottky rectifier, 1.265V reference accuracy, low-noise 1mVP-P output ripple with ceramic capacitors, and SOT-23-6 package compatibility.
Technical Context
The LT3462AES6#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control with internal ramp compensation, enabling stable regulation under wide line/load variations. Its dual-inductor inverting topology filters both input and output currents, achieving very low output voltage ripple near 1mVP-P when paired with ceramic capacitors.
It features a ground-referenced high-impedance FB pin (bias current ≤50nA) and a dual-function SDREF pin that serves as both shutdown control input and 1.265V reference output (±20mV tolerance, 180µA source capability), enabling precise feedback divider biasing without external references.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 2.7MHz typical - enables use of sub-2mm height inductors and 1µF ceramic flying/output caps |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 16V - supports single-cell Li+ (2.7–4.2V), 3.3V, and 5V rails |
| Output Voltage Range | Up to –38V - determined by VIN–VOUT differential limit of 40V switch rating |
| SDREF Reference Voltage | 1.265V ±20mV - sets feedback divider ratio for accurate negative output regulation |
| VCE(SAT) @ 250mA | 270mV max - minimizes conduction loss in high-current inverting topologies |
| Quiescent Current | 6.5µA max in shutdown - ensures ultra-low standby power for battery-powered systems |
| FB Bias Current | ≤50nA - allows use of >1MΩ feedback resistors without accuracy degradation |
Pinout & Package
LT3462AES6#TRPBF is housed in a 6-lead TSOT-23 (S6) package with 1mm profile, JEDEC MO-193 compliant, requiring exposed-pad grounding only for DFN variants (not applicable here).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.5V–16V; requires local 1µF ceramic bypass capacitor |
| D | Anode of integrated Schottky diode | Connects to flying capacitor negative terminal and L2; supports ≤–40V reverse bias |
| SDREF | Shutdown control + 1.265V reference output | Pull to GND to disable; sources up to 180µA at 1.265V for R2 biasing |
| SW | Collector of internal NPN switch | Drives external inductor L1; rated for 40V max, 420mA current limit |
| GND | Power and signal ground reference | Must tie directly to local PCB ground plane; no separate analog/digital split required |
| FB | Feedback error amplifier input | Ground-referenced; regulates VOUT via R1/R2 divider where VOUT = –1.265V × (R1/R2) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar inverting DC/DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT3462ES6#TRPBF | 1.2MHz switching frequency, higher duty cycle (90%), same SOT-23-6 package | Better efficiency at light loads; larger inductors/caps required vs. LT3462AES6#TRPBF | Select when lower EMI or higher peak current capability (420mA) is prioritized over size |
| LT1931AEDD#TRPBF | 2.2MHz switching, 1A switch current limit, 8-lead DFN (3mm × 2mm), no integrated Schottky | Requires external Schottky; supports higher output current but larger footprint | Choose when >100mA output current or wider input range (2.6V–16V) is needed |
Compared with LT3462ES6#TRPBF, LT3462AES6#TRPBF delivers smaller passive components and lower output ripple due to its 2.7MHz frequency, while LT1931AEDD#TRPBF trades integration for higher current capability and different package constraints-neither is pin-compatible, requiring layout revision.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with the LT3462AES6#TRPBF?
The LT3462AES6#TRPBF supports up to –38V output voltage, limited by its 40V-rated internal switch and the VIN–VOUT differential constraint. For example, with 3.3V input, –36.7V is attainable; with 5V input, –35V is practical. Output voltage is set by the feedback resistor divider ratio referenced to the 1.265V SDREF pin.
Does the LT3462AES6#TRPBF require an external Schottky diode?
No, the LT3462AES6#TRPBF integrates a Schottky diode at the D pin, eliminating the need for an external diode. This reduces bill-of-materials count, PCB area, and potential reliability issues from diode mismatch or thermal drift-confirmed in the device's "Integrated Schottky Rectifier" feature list and pin function description.
What is the purpose of the SDREF pin on the LT3462AES6#TRPBF?
The SDREF pin on the LT3462AES6#TRPBF serves two functions: it acts as a shutdown control input (pull to GND disables the converter) and provides a 1.265V reference output capable of sourcing up to 180µA. This dual role enables direct biasing of the feedback resistor network without external references, improving accuracy and simplifying design.
Can the LT3462AES6#TRPBF operate from a 2.5V input supply?
Yes, the LT3462AES6#TRPBF specifies a minimum operating voltage of 2.5V, making it compatible with single-cell Li+ batteries (2.7–4.2V nominal) and low-voltage logic rails. At 2.5V input, it can generate regulated negative outputs such as –5V or –8V, though output current capability decreases proportionally with input voltage per the efficiency curves in the datasheet.
What package type does the LT3462AES6#TRPBF use?
The LT3462AES6#TRPBF uses a 6-lead TSOT-23 (S6) package, measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.0mm with a 0.95mm pitch. It is JEDEC MO-193 compliant, lead-free, and RoHS-compliant. Unlike the LT3462AEDC variant, this part does not use the 8-lead DFN package.
