Product details
Overview
LT3463EDD#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual micropower DC/DC converter IC with integrated Schottky diodes, designed for generating well-regulated positive and negative bias supplies in space-constrained portable systems. It delivers 250mA current limit per channel, operates from 2.4V to 15V input, achieves ±40V output capability, and draws only 20µA quiescent current per converter - enabling high-efficiency CCD and LCD bias generation in digital cameras and handheld computers.
For engineers reviewing the LT3463EDD#TRPBF datasheet, LT3463EDD#TRPBF pinout, LT3463EDD#TRPBF application, or LT3463EDD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-channel constant off-time control architecture, internal 42V NPN switches with 180mV VCE(SAT), 300ns minimum off-time for compact magnetics, and DFN-10 (3mm × 3mm) package with exposed thermal pad.
Technical Context
The LT3463EDD#TRPBF integrates two independent switching regulators: a boost converter (Switcher 1) for positive output and an inverting converter (Switcher 2) for negative output, both using constant off-time control with internal 42V NPN power switches and Schottky diodes. Each channel features separate shutdown pins (SHDN1/SHDN2), dedicated feedback inputs (FB1/FB2), and a shared 1.25V reference (VREF) used with FB2 to set the negative rail.
Its operation relies on hysteresis-based regulation: FB1 comparator trips at 1.25V ±2.5mV with 8mV hysteresis, while FB2 senses near-ground voltage for inverting regulation with trip threshold of 0–12mV and identical hysteresis. Switch current limiting is fixed at 250mA for both channels (LT3463 variant), and minimum off-time is tightly controlled at 300ns across temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.4V to 15V - supports single-cell Li-ion, multi-cell alkaline, and regulated 3.3V/5V rails without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage Range | Up to +40V and –40V - enables direct generation of high-voltage CCD and LCD bias rails without transformers or external diodes. |
| Per-Channel Quiescent Current | 20µA active / <1µA shutdown - preserves battery life in always-on portable imaging and display subsystems. |
| Switch Current Limit | 250mA per channel - defines maximum sustainable load for both positive and negative outputs under LT3463 specification. |
| Minimum Switch Off-Time | 300ns - allows use of small inductors (e.g., 4.7µH–10µH) and low-profile ceramic capacitors to minimize PCB area. |
| Internal Power Switch Rating | 42V VCEO, 180mV VCE(SAT) at 150mA - ensures low conduction loss and safe operation up to ±40V output configurations. |
| Reference Voltage Accuracy | 1.23V to 1.27V (G-grade) - provides ±2% tolerance on programmed output voltages when using standard 1% feedback resistors. |
Pinout & Package
LT3463EDD#TRPBF is housed in a 10-lead 3mm × 3mm plastic DFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 11 = GND), requiring soldering to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| FB1 (Pin 10) | Feedback input for positive output regulator | Senses divided VOUT1 voltage; comparator triggers switch turn-on when below 1.25V, enabling hysteresis-based regulation. |
| SHDN1 (Pin 9) | Enable/disable control for positive output regulator | Pull ≥1.5V to enable Switcher 1; pull ≤0.3V to enter ultra-low-IQ shutdown mode (<1µA total). |
| SHDN2 (Pin 8) | Enable/disable control for negative output regulator | Independent control of Switcher 2; allows asymmetric power sequencing or dynamic rail disabling. |
| VREF (Pin 7) | 1.25V precision reference output | Used with FB2 to set negative output voltage via resistor divider; stable over temperature and line variations. |
| FB2 (Pin 6) | Feedback input for negative output regulator | Senses voltage between VREF and VOUT2; trip point near 0V enables accurate inverting regulation down to –40V. |
| VOUT1 (Pin 1) | Positive output cathode node | Internally connected to cathode of Schottky diode D1; requires external output capacitor and inductor for boost topology. |
| SW1 (Pin 2) | Collector of internal NPN switch for positive regulator | High dv/dt node - must be routed with minimal trace area and adjacent ground plane to suppress EMI. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main input supply connection | Requires local 1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed as close as possible to reduce input ripple and improve transient response. |
| SW2 (Pin 4) | Collector of internal NPN switch for negative regulator | Carries inverted switching waveform; same layout constraints as SW1 for EMI control and efficiency optimization. |
| D2 (Pin 5) | Anode of internal Schottky diode for negative regulator | Connected internally to GND; forms return path for inverting converter current - no external diode needed. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent regulators | Separate SHDN and FB pins allow independent enable/disable and programmable output voltages for +V and –V rails. |
| Integrated 42V Schottky diodes | Eliminates need for external diodes in both boost and inverting topologies - reduces BOM count and board area. |
| 300ns minimum off-time | Enables use of sub-10µH inductors and 0.22µF–4.7µF ceramic capacitors - critical for ultra-compact portable designs. |
| Exposed thermal pad (Pin 11) | Provides low-thermal-resistance path to PCB ground plane - maintains junction temperature ≤125°C at full load in 2-layer boards. |
| Current-limited fixed off-time control | Delivers >75% efficiency across 0.1–50mA load range (e.g., 15V@10mA, –8V@50mA) without external compensation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output micropower DC/DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT3463AEDD#TRPBF | Same package and pinout; negative channel current limit increased to 400mA (vs. 250mA in LT3463EDD#TRPBF). | Better suited for higher-current negative rails (e.g., –12V @ 40mA) where LT3463EDD#TRPBF may enter current-limit foldback. | Select LT3463AEDD#TRPBF when negative output load exceeds 250mA; otherwise LT3463EDD#TRPBF offers identical functionality at lower cost. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with the LT3463EDD#TRPBF?
The LT3463EDD#TRPBF supports up to +40V on the positive output (VOUT1) and –40V on the negative output (VOUT2), enabled by its internal 42V-rated NPN switches and Schottky diodes. This capability eliminates need for external high-voltage components in CCD and LCD bias applications, though practical limits depend on inductor saturation current and capacitor voltage ratings selected in the design.
Does the LT3463EDD#TRPBF require external Schottky diodes?
No, the LT3463EDD#TRPBF integrates all necessary Schottky diodes: one cathode-connected to VOUT1 (Pin 1) for the boost regulator, and one anode-connected to D2 (Pin 5) for the inverting regulator. This integration reduces bill-of-materials count, PCB area, and potential failure points compared to discrete solutions requiring two external diodes.
How does the LT3463EDD#TRPBF achieve low quiescent current?
The LT3463EDD#TRPBF achieves 20µA per-converter quiescent current through a combination of optimized internal biasing, current-limited fixed off-time control, and deep shutdown mode (<1µA total). Its architecture disables non-essential circuitry when FB1 or FB2 thresholds are met, minimizing static current draw while maintaining fast wake-up response for portable applications.
Can the positive and negative outputs of the LT3463EDD#TRPBF be enabled independently?
Yes, the LT3463EDD#TRPBF provides independent enable control via SHDN1 (Pin 9) for the positive output and SHDN2 (Pin 8) for the negative output. Each pin accepts logic-level signals: ≥1.5V enables the respective converter, ≤0.3V disables it. This allows flexible power sequencing, dynamic rail disabling, and system-level power management without affecting the other channel.
What package type and thermal considerations apply to the LT3463EDD#TRPBF?
The LT3463EDD#TRPBF uses a 10-lead 3mm × 3mm plastic DFN package with an exposed thermal pad (Pin 11 = GND). This pad must be soldered to a PCB ground plane to ensure proper thermal dissipation and electrical performance. Thermal resistance is θJA = 43°C/W and θJC = 3°C/W, allowing reliable operation up to 125°C junction temperature with appropriate copper area and airflow.
