Product details
Overview
LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF from Analog Devices is a micropower buck regulator IC with integrated boost and catch Schottky diodes, 300mA internal bipolar NPN switch, 4V–40V input range, 200mA output current, and 26µA quiescent current in regulation-designed for automotive battery regulation and portable power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF datasheet, LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF pinout, LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF application, or LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (8-lead DFN, 3mm × 2mm), hysteretic + Burst Mode® control architecture, AEC-Q100 qualification, thermal pad grounding requirement, and real-world ripple (<10mV) and efficiency data at 12VIN→3.3VOUT/5VOUT.
Technical Context
The LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF uses a hysteretic control scheme with dual current comparators and an RS latch to regulate output voltage by dynamically adjusting switching frequency based on inductor value, VIN, and VOUT-enabling both discontinuous (Burst Mode®) and continuous conduction modes. Its internal bipolar NPN switch requires BOOST pin voltage >2.5V above SW for full saturation.
Operation relies on external feedback divider (FB = 1.25V reference), integrated 0.775V boost Schottky diode (IF = 30mA), and 0.775V catch Schottky (IF = 100mA), with shutdown disconnecting load via <1µA quiescent current and fast current limiting protecting against shorted outputs up to 40V input.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4V to 40V - supports 2-cell Li-ion, lead-acid, and unregulated wall transformers without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 200mA - sustained continuous load capability with integrated 300mA switch and thermal derating up to 125°C junction. |
| Quiescent Current | 26µA at 12VIN→3.3VOUT - enables multi-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes and low-power telemetry. |
| Shutdown Current | <1µA - fully isolates load from input source, simplifying power sequencing in automotive body controllers. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.25V ±1.7% over –40°C to 125°C - sets output voltage via resistor divider (VOUT = 1.25V × (1 + R1/R2)). |
| Output Ripple | <10mV peak-to-peak - achieved with proper ceramic output capacitor and optional 22pF phase-lead compensation. |
| Switch Top Current Limit | 250–435mA - programmable hysteresis-based current limit ensures robust short-circuit protection at high VIN. |
| Package Thermal Resistance | θJA = 180°C/W - requires exposed pad soldered to PCB ground plane for reliable operation at full load in industrial ambient. |
Pinout & Package
LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF is housed in an 8-lead (3mm × 2mm) plastic DFN package (DDB8) with exposed thermal pad (Pin 9) that must be soldered to PCB ground. The package is thermally enhanced for operation up to 125°C ambient and supports AEC-Q100 Grade I automotive qualification.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SHDN (Pin 1) | Enable/disable control input | Logic-high ≥2.5V enables regulation; grounded shuts down IC with <1µA VIN current - tie to VIN if unused. |
| NC (Pin 2) | No-connect terminal | May be left floating or tied to VIN - no internal connection; not used for bias or signal routing. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main power input | Supplies internal regulator and switch driver; requires local 1–2.2µF ceramic bypass capacitor near pin. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Power and signal reference | Return path for FB divider, internal regulators, and catch diode - must connect to local ground plane under IC. |
| SW (Pin 5) | Switch node | Drives external inductor and catch diode; carries high di/dt pulses - minimize trace length and loop area. |
| BOOST (Pin 6) | Charge pump drive | Connects to external 0.22µF capacitor between BOOST and SW to generate >VIN gate drive for NPN switch. |
| BIAS (Pin 7) | Bias supply selector | Tie to VOUT if VOUT > 2V (improves efficiency); otherwise tie to VIN - powers internal regulator when BIAS > 3V. |
| FB (Pin 8) | Feedback input | Regulated to 1.25V; connects to resistor divider midpoint - sensitive node; keep trace short and shielded from SW/BOOST. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hysteretic + Burst Mode® control | Enables ultra-low-noise, low-ripple regulation at light loads (e.g., 10µA sensor sleep current) while maintaining stability across 0–200mA range. |
| Integrated boost and catch Schottky diodes | Eliminates two external diodes - reduces solution size to ≤50mm² and removes layout sensitivity to diode parasitics. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade I) | Rated for –40°C to +125°C operation with validated reliability testing - suitable for automotive body electronics and infotainment power rails. |
| Fast current limiting & short-circuit protection | Responds within one switching cycle to output shorts - protects IC and external components even at 40V input without external sensing. |
| Low-profile DFN package with exposed thermal pad | 0.75mm height and 3mm × 2mm footprint enables compact placement in space-constrained modules like telematics ECUs and portable medical devices. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT3471IDDB#TRMPBF | Same pinout, identical DFN package, but adds adjustable soft-start and higher 500mA switch current rating. | Preferred for systems requiring inrush current limiting or >200mA peak loads (e.g., motor drivers, LED flash circuits). | Select LT3471IDDB#TRMPBF only if soft-start or higher current headroom is required - otherwise LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF offers lower cost and same footprint. |
| TPS62231DRYR | 3MHz fixed-frequency synchronous buck; 2.05V–6.5V input; 300mA output; 17µA IQ; no integrated diodes. | Suitable for low-input-voltage, high-efficiency apps (e.g., USB-powered sensors), but requires external MOSFETs and lacks 40V tolerance. | Choose TPS62231DRYR for compact 3.3V/5V rails from 3.3V–5V sources where size and efficiency outweigh input range needs. |
Compared with LT3471IDDB#TRMPBF, LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF provides identical automotive-grade packaging and 40V input support at lower cost without soft-start; versus TPS62231DRYR, it trades fixed-frequency predictability for wider input range and integrated diodes - making it superior for battery-backed or unregulated AC/DC-fed designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF?
The LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF is rated for a maximum junction temperature of 125°C and is specified over an operating ambient temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. Its thermal performance relies on proper soldering of the exposed pad (Pin 9) to a PCB ground plane to achieve the specified θJA of 180°C/W - failure to do so may cause premature thermal shutdown or reduced lifetime.
Does the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF require external diodes for boost or catch functions?
No, the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF integrates both a boost Schottky diode (VF ≈ 0.775V at 30mA) and a catch Schottky diode (VF ≈ 0.775V at 100mA) internally. This eliminates the need for two external diodes, reduces bill-of-materials count, and minimizes solution size to as small as 50mm² - confirmed in the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF typical application circuit on page 1 of the datasheet.
How does the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF achieve low output ripple below 10mV?
The LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF achieves <10mV peak-to-peak output ripple through combined Burst Mode® operation at light loads, hysteretic control minimizing switching jitter, and optimized internal compensation. Adding a 22pF phase-lead capacitor between VOUT and FB further reduces ripple by compensating comparator delay - as demonstrated in Figure 1a and Application Note DC1823.
Is the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF pin-compatible with other variants in the LT3470 family?
Yes, all LT3470 DFN-package variants - including LT3470EDDB#TRMPBF, LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF, and LT3470HDDB#TRMPBF - share identical 8-lead DDB8 pinout and footprint. Differences are limited to temperature grade (E: –40°C to 85°C, I: –40°C to 125°C, H: –40°C to 150°C) and AEC-Q100 qualification status - enabling drop-in replacement within same grade requirements.
What is the minimum input voltage required for the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF to start and regulate 5V output?
For a 5V output, the LT3470IDDB#TRMPBF requires a minimum input voltage of approximately 5.8V to start (with boost capacitor charged) and 6.2V to sustain regulation at 200mA load - per Figure 3470 G19 in the datasheet. Below 4V, the undervoltage lockout disables operation regardless of output voltage setting.
