Product details
Overview
LT3471EDD#TR from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel, 1.2MHz current-mode DC/DC switching regulator with integrated 42V, 1.3A NPN bipolar switches-configured for independent boost or inverting operation. It delivers up to 5V at 630mA from 3.3V input and –12V at 200mA from 5V input, targeting compact high-voltage bias supplies in portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the LT3471EDD#TR datasheet, LT3471EDD#TR pinout, LT3471EDD#TR application, or LT3471EDD#TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10-lead 3mm × 3mm DFN package, dual independent shutdown/soft-start pins (SHDN/SS1 & SHDN/SS2), ±40V output capability, 1.2MHz fixed-frequency operation, and ground-sensing error amplifiers enabling true inverting topologies without level-shifting.
Technical Context
The LT3471EDD#TR implements constant-frequency current-mode PWM control per channel, sharing a single 1.2MHz oscillator while maintaining independent feedback loops (FB1P/FB1N and FB2P/FB2N), soft-start (via RC-ramped SHDN/SS pins), and thermal shutdown. Each channel features a dedicated 42V-rated NPN switch with 330mV VCE(SAT) at 1.3A and supports discontinuous conduction mode for >94% duty cycle operation.
Its error amplifiers sense directly to ground-enabling both non-inverting boost and inverting configurations without external level shifters-and reference voltage (VREF = 1.00V, ±1.3% over temperature) is buffered to supply up to 1.4mA, usable as an external precision reference or for LED current-setting via resistor dividers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 1.2 MHz (enables use of sub-10μH inductors and <10μF ceramic output capacitors, reducing board area by >50% vs lower-frequency regulators) |
| Max Output Voltage | ±40 V (supports TFT-LCD gate drivers, OLED bias rails, and local ±12V/±15V supplies without external charge pumps) |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.4 V to 16 V (covers single Li-ion (2.6–4.2V), 3-cell alkaline (3.6–4.8V), and 5V/12V system rails) |
| Switch Current Limit | 1.6 A typical (guarantees robust start-up into heavy loads and short-circuit survival without foldback) |
| VCE(SAT) @ 1.3A | 330 mV (minimizes conduction loss in high-current boost stages, improving efficiency at 500–630mA outputs) |
| Shutdown Current | <1 μA (enables battery-powered systems to achieve multi-year shelf life with deep sleep modes) |
| Reference Voltage | 1.00 V ±1.3% (tight tolerance enables accurate output regulation across –40°C to +85°C without trimming) |
Pinout & Package
LT3471EDD#TR is housed in a low-profile (0.75 mm) 10-lead 3 mm × 3 mm plastic DFN package with exposed pad (Pin 11) soldered to PCB ground for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW1 (Pin 10) | Collector of Channel 1 NPN switch | Connects to boost inductor cathode or inverter diode anode; requires minimal trace area to suppress EMI |
| SHDN/SS1 (Pin 9) | Channel 1 enable & soft-start control | ≥1.8 V enables Channel 1; RC ramp (e.g., 4.7kΩ + 0.33μF) controls current slew rate during startup |
| VIN (Pin 8) | Primary power input | Supplies both channels; must be locally bypassed with ≥4.7μF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor |
| SHDN/SS2 (Pin 7) | Channel 2 enable & soft-start control | Independent of SHDN/SS1-allows staggered startup or selective channel disable |
| SW2 (Pin 6) | Collector of Channel 2 NPN switch | Electrically isolated from SW1; supports asynchronous dual-output configurations |
| FB1N (Pin 1) | Negative feedback input for Channel 1 | Connected to resistive divider tap (boost) or ground (inverter); sensitive node requiring guard ring |
| FB1P (Pin 2) | Positive feedback input for Channel 1 | Tied to VREF (1.00 V) for standard boost; configurable for custom reference scaling |
| VREF (Pin 3) | Buffered 1.00 V reference output | Supplies ≤1.4 mA; bypassed with 0.1μF ceramic; usable as LED current-set reference |
| FB2P (Pin 4) | Positive feedback input for Channel 2 | Functionally identical to FB1P; enables independent output voltage programming |
| FB2N (Pin 5) | Negative feedback input for Channel 2 | Functionally identical to FB1N; supports dual inverter, dual boost, or boost+inverter topologies |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent 1.2MHz regulators | Eliminates need for two discrete converters-reduces BOM count, layout area, and EMI coupling between channels |
| Ground-referenced feedback architecture | Enables true inverting operation without level-shifting ICs or optocouplers, simplifying ±V bias generation |
| Programmable per-channel soft-start | Prevents inrush current stress on input source and output capacitors-critical for Li-ion and supercapacitor inputs |
| 42V switch rating with 330mV VCE(SAT) | Supports high-voltage OLED, LCD, and medical imaging bias rails while maintaining >85% efficiency at 300–630mA loads |
| 10-lead 3mm × 3mm DFN with exposed pad | Thermally efficient (θJA = 43°C/W) and space-optimized for ultra-thin portable devices (e.g., smartphones, wearables) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output DC/DC regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3589EUF#PBF | 4-output buck-boost with I2C interface; 2.25MHz switching; no bipolar switches (MOSFET-based); max VOUT = ±15V | Requires digital control loop tuning; limited to lower-voltage bias rails; better suited for PMIC-integrated SoC power | Select when programmability, sequencing, and multiple low-voltage rails outweigh need for ±40V capability |
| MAX17504ATP+ | Single-channel 42V synchronous buck; no inverting capability; 200kHz–2.2MHz adjustable frequency; MOSFET-based | Cannot generate negative outputs without external inverter stage; higher quiescent current (12μA vs <1μA) | Select for high-efficiency positive-only rails where footprint allows separate inverter IC |
Compared with LTC3589EUF#PBF and MAX17504ATP+, the LT3471EDD#TR uniquely combines bipolar-switch ruggedness, ±40V capability, ground-referenced feedback, and dual independent soft-start in a 3mm × 3mm DFN-making it irreplaceable for compact, high-voltage, mixed-polarity bias generation without digital overhead or secondary converters.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with the LT3471EDD#TR in boost and inverting configurations?
The LT3471EDD#TR supports up to +40V in boost mode and –40V in inverting mode, limited by its 42V-rated internal NPN switches and absolute maximum SWx pin voltage rating. Real-world outputs are constrained by external component ratings (e.g., diode PIV, capacitor WV) and stability margins-verified designs achieve ±36V at 100mA with proper layout and compensation.
Can the LT3471EDD#TR operate from a single 3.3V supply to generate both +5V and –5V outputs?
Yes-the LT3471EDD#TR is validated for exactly this configuration: +5V at up to 630mA and –5V at up to 200mA from a 3.3V input, as documented in the "Typical Application" section of the datasheet. This relies on its ground-sensing feedback architecture and low VCE(SAT) to maintain efficiency above 80%.
Does the LT3471EDD#TR require external compensation components, and if so, what are the critical ones?
Yes-stable operation requires external compensation: a phase-lead capacitor (CPL, e.g., 33pF) across the upper feedback resistor (R1), plus appropriate R1/R2 values to set output voltage. The datasheet provides Bode plot analysis and Table 3 parameters confirming that CPL placement is essential to achieve >65° phase margin in boost configurations like the Li-Ion OLED driver.
How does the soft-start function work on the LT3471EDD#TR, and can it be disabled?
The LT3471EDD#TR implements per-channel soft-start by ramping the SHDN/SS1 or SHDN/SS2 pin voltage via an external RC network (e.g., 4.7kΩ + 0.33μF). Soft-start activates when the pin voltage rises through ~1.1V and concludes at ~1.8V. It cannot be fully disabled-tying SHDN/SS directly to VIN forces immediate full-current startup, risking inrush stress.
Is the LT3471EDD#TR pin-compatible with other members of the LT347x family, such as the LT3472?
No-LT3471EDD#TR is not pin-compatible with LT3472 or LT3473. While sharing the same 10-lead DFN package outline, pin functions differ significantly: LT3472 uses different FB pin assignments and lacks independent SHDN/SS pins, making direct substitution impossible without PCB redesign and schematic revision.
