Product details
Overview
LT3470EDDB#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a micropower buck regulator IC with integrated boost and catch Schottky diodes, 300mA internal bipolar NPN switch, and hysteretic/Burst Mode® control. It delivers up to 200mA at output voltages adjustable from 1.25V to 16V, operates from 4V to 40V input, and achieves <10mV output ripple with 26µA quiescent current - ideal for automotive battery regulation and portable power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF datasheet, LT3470EDDB#TRPBF pinout, LT3470EDDB#TRPBF application, or LT3470EDDB#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (8-lead 3mm × 2mm DFN), confirmed thermal performance (θJA = 180°C/W), validated shutdown behavior (<1µA), and real-world design constraints including minimum inductor sizing and BOOST capacitor requirements.
Technical Context
The LT3470EDDB#TRPBF uses a hysteretic control architecture with dual current comparators and an RS latch to regulate output voltage by dynamically adjusting switching frequency based on load, input, and output conditions - eliminating need for external compensation. Its Burst Mode® operation enables micropower state transitions at light loads while maintaining low ripple via controlled pulse energy delivery.
It integrates a bipolar NPN power switch driven by a charge-pump boosted gate voltage (generated via external BOOST capacitor and internal Schottky diode), enabling full saturation down to 4V input. The BIAS pin supports efficient biasing from VOUT (>2V) or VIN, reducing quiescent current dependency on input rail.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4V to 40V - supports 2-cell Li-ion, lead-acid, and unregulated wall adapters without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 200mA continuous - limited by thermal design and inductor saturation; requires ≥33µH for robust 40V short-circuit protection. |
| Quiescent Current | 26µA typical at 12VIN/3.3VOUT - enables multi-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes. |
| Shutdown Current | <1µA - disconnects load from input source, simplifying power sequencing in battery-powered systems. |
| FB Reference Voltage | 1.25V ±1.7% over temperature - sets output via resistor divider; line regulation 0.01%/V ensures stability across wide input range. |
| Switch Top Current Limit | 325mA typical - defines peak inductor current during startup and overload; bottom limit is 225mA for discontinuous conduction control. |
| Output Ripple | <10mV peak-to-peak - achieved with proper ceramic output capacitor (e.g., 22µF X5R) and 22pF phase-lead capacitor. |
Pinout & Package
LT3470EDDB#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead, 3mm × 2mm plastic DFN (DDB8) package with exposed ground pad (Pin 9), thermally enhanced for θJA = 180°C/W. The package is RoHS-compliant, lead-free, and requires soldering of the exposed pad to PCB ground for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SHDN (Pin 1) | Shutdown enable input | Logic-high ≥2.5V enables regulation; grounded disables all circuitry and reduces VIN current to leakage level (~nA). |
| NC (Pin 2) | No-connect terminal | May be left floating or tied to VIN; no internal connection - avoids unintended parasitic paths. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main power input | Supplies internal regulator and switch; must be locally bypassed with 1–2.2µF ceramic capacitor to minimize EMI and input ripple. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Power and signal ground | Primary return path for switch, feedback divider, and internal regulators; must connect to local ground plane under IC. |
| SW (Pin 5) | Switch node | Drives external inductor and catch diode; high dv/dt node requiring minimal trace area and separation from sensitive signals. |
| BOOST (Pin 6) | Charge-pump bootstrap supply | Generates >VIN voltage to saturate bipolar switch; requires 0.22µF capacitor between BOOST and SW pins. |
| BIAS (Pin 7) | Bias supply selector | Tied to VOUT if >2V (reducing quiescent current); otherwise tied to VIN - determines internal regulator operating point. |
| FB (Pin 8) | Feedback reference input | Regulated to 1.25V; sets output via R1/R2 divider; high-impedance node requiring small layout area and shielding from SW/BOOST. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hysteretic + Burst Mode® control | Enables automatic transition between continuous switching (high load) and micropower burst pulses (light load), eliminating external compensation and minimizing idle power. |
| Integrated boost and catch Schottky diodes | Removes need for two external diodes; reduces solution size to ≤50mm² and eliminates diode selection, placement, and thermal management overhead. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified (E-grade) | Rated for –40°C to +85°C ambient; validated for automotive battery regulation applications including start-stop and load-dump environments. |
| Low-profile DFN package with exposed pad | 0.75mm height and thermal pad enable high-power density in space-constrained designs (e.g., telematics modules, ADAS sensors). |
| Fast current limiting and short-circuit protection | Top/bottom current comparators and 500ns minimum off-time prevent switch overstress even at 40V input into shorted output. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8606IMSE#TRPBF | Synchronous 2.5A buck with 2.5µA IQ; requires external MOSFETs; no integrated diodes; 3.4–42V input. | Higher current, lower IQ, but larger solution size and no integrated catch/boost diodes - unsuitable where board space or BOM count is critical. | Choose LT8606IMSE#TRPBF only when >200mA output or sub-µA standby is required; not drop-in due to different pinout and control scheme. |
| TPS54202DRCT | 2A synchronous buck; 2µA IQ; 4.5–28V input; integrated FETs but no boost/catch diodes; requires external compensation. | Higher efficiency at medium loads, but lacks 40V rating and integrated diodes - cannot replace LT3470EDDB#TRPBF in 36–40V industrial or automotive inputs. | Prefer TPS54202DRCT for cost-sensitive 12V-input consumer devices; avoid where input exceeds 28V or diode integration is mandatory. |
Compared with LT3470EDDB#TRPBF, LT8606IMSE#TRPBF offers higher current and lower IQ but increases BOM count and layout complexity, while TPS54202DRCT trades 40V tolerance and diode integration for higher efficiency at lower input voltages - neither matches the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF's combination of wide input, micropower operation, and minimal external component count in space-constrained 200mA applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF?
The LT3470EDDB#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 40V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation above this voltage risks permanent damage. For reliable 40V operation, use a ≥33µH inductor with ≥450mA saturation current to ensure robust short-circuit protection under worst-case conditions.
Does the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF require external diodes?
No, the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF integrates both the boost Schottky diode (for gate drive boosting) and the catch Schottky diode (for inductor freewheeling), eliminating the need for two external diodes. This integration reduces BOM count, PCB area, and thermal design complexity - a key differentiator versus most competing buck controllers.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF use?
The LT3470EDDB#TRPBF uses an 8-lead, 3mm × 2mm plastic DFN (DDB8) package with exposed ground pad (Pin 9). Its thermal resistance is θJA = 180°C/W when mounted on a standard 2-layer PCB with the exposed pad soldered to a 1cm² copper area - critical for maintaining junction temperature below 125°C at full 200mA load.
How does the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF achieve low output ripple despite using Burst Mode® operation?
The LT3470EDDB#TRPBF achieves <10mV output ripple by combining Burst Mode®'s low-energy pulses with precise hysteretic control that limits inductor current swing, plus optional 22pF phase-lead capacitor across the feedback divider to dampen comparator delay-induced ripple - all without requiring large output capacitance or complex compensation networks.
Is the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the LT3470EDDB#TRPBF is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade E, –40°C to +85°C) and explicitly listed in Analog Devices' automotive product documentation for use in battery regulation, body electronics, and infotainment power supplies - meeting stress testing, reliability, and traceability requirements for automotive production.
