Product details
Overview
LT3509HMSE#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel, current-mode, synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator IC with integrated 700mA power switches per channel, 3.6V–36V input range, and independent RUN/SS control-designed for automotive and industrial multi-rail power systems requiring robust transient immunity up to 60V and operation at junction temperatures up to 150°C.
For engineers reviewing the LT3509HMSE#TRPBF datasheet, LT3509HMSE#TRPBF pinout, LT3509HMSE#TRPBF application, or LT3509HMSE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its adjustable 300kHz–2.2MHz switching frequency, internal compensation and boost diodes, overvoltage lockout (38.5V typ), thermal shutdown, and MSOP-16 package with exposed pad for enhanced thermal performance in harsh environments.
Technical Context
The LT3509HMSE#TRPBF implements dual independent current-mode control loops sharing a common 0.8V reference and oscillator, enabling phase-aligned switching and synchronized frequency setting via RT resistor or external clock on SYNC pin. Each channel features cycle-by-cycle current limiting, soft-start via RUN/SS pins, and integrated boost diode (BD) driving external bootstrap capacitors for high-side switch gate drive above VIN.
Its protection architecture includes undervoltage lockout (~3.6V), overvoltage shutdown (~38.5V), thermal shutdown, and DA-pin-based valley-current limiting (0.95A typ) during short-circuit events. The device maintains constant-frequency operation across its full temperature range (–40°C to 150°C), with minimum on-time drift and stable feedback voltage (0.784–0.816V) over temperature.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
LT3509HMSE#TRPBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 16-lead plastic MSOP package with exposed pad (Pin 17 = GND), measuring 4.0mm × 3.0mm × 1.0mm. The exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground for thermal and electrical integrity; θJA = 43°C/W, θJC = 4.3°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| DA1, DA2 (Pins 1, 8) | Catch diode anode sense terminals | Internally connected to GND via current-sense resistors; enable valley-current limiting and short-circuit protection per channel. |
| BOOST1, BOOST2 (Pins 2, 7) | Bootstrap capacitor connection points | Drive external capacitors to elevate gate drive above VIN-reducing dropout and improving efficiency at high duty cycles. |
| SW1, SW2 (Pins 3, 6) | Internal power switch outputs | Connect directly to inductors and catch diode cathodes; rated for 700mA continuous, 1.4A peak switch current. |
| VIN (Pins 4, 5) | Main input power supply | Dual pins must be tied together; accepts 3.6V–36V input and handles 60V transients-requires local ceramic input capacitance. |
| FB1, FB2 (Pins 16, 9) | Output voltage feedback inputs | Set regulated output via resistor divider; maintain 0.8V reference-enables precise 3.3V, 5V, or custom rail generation. |
| RUN/SS1, RUN/SS2 (Pins 15, 10) | Channel enable and soft-start control | 0.8V–2V range enables current-limited soft-start; <0.4V shuts down channel; internal 1µA pull-up allows floating-enable operation. |
| RT (Pin 11) | Oscillator timing resistor input | Single external resistor sets switching frequency from 300kHz to 2.2MHz-no external capacitor required. |
| SYNC (Pin 12) | External clock synchronization input | Accepts logic-level clock ≥12% above free-run frequency; threshold = 1.0V-enables EMI reduction and multi-converter phase alignment. |
| BD (Pin 13) | Common anode of internal Schottky boost diodes | Supplies charge current to BOOST capacitors; must be locally bypassed-enables self-contained bootstrap operation without external diodes. |
| AGND (Pin 14) | Analog ground reference | Separate low-noise return for control circuitry; must connect to main GND plane but not used as sole ground path for power components. |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 17) | Power and thermal ground | Electrically and thermally connected to internal GND; requires soldering and thermal vias for reliable 150°C operation. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage transient rating for LT3509HMSE#TRPBF?
The LT3509HMSE#TRPBF is rated to withstand non-repetitive 60V transients on the VIN pin for up to 1 second, while continuous operation is specified from 3.6V to 36V. This 60V transient rating aligns with ISO 7637-2 automotive load-dump requirements, making LT3509HMSE#TRPBF suitable for direct battery connection in vehicles without external clamping diodes.
Does LT3509HMSE#TRPBF require external boost diodes?
No, the LT3509HMSE#TRPBF integrates Schottky boost diodes connected to the BD pin, eliminating the need for external diodes in standard configurations. The internal diodes supply charge current to the BOOST1 and BOOST2 capacitors-reducing component count and PCB area. External diodes may be added in parallel only for extreme-duty-cycle operation (e.g., >95%) where BD supply voltage is marginal.
How is switching frequency set on LT3509HMSE#TRPBF?
Switching frequency on the LT3509HMSE#TRPBF is set by a single resistor connected from the RT pin to ground. Using the formula RT = (1.215/fSW − 0.215) × 40.2 (with fSW in MHz and RT in kΩ), frequencies from 300kHz to 2.2MHz are achievable. For example, a 40.2kΩ resistor yields ~1MHz. The SYNC pin also supports external clock synchronization at frequencies ≥12% above the RT-set free-run frequency.
What is the purpose of the DA1 and DA2 pins on LT3509HMSE#TRPBF?
The DA1 and DA2 pins on LT3509HMSE#TRPBF serve as anode connections for the internal catch diode current sensing network. They monitor valley inductor current during discontinuous conduction mode and trigger cycle-by-cycle limiting when diode current exceeds ~0.95A-providing short-circuit robustness without external current-sense resistors. These pins are internally tied to GND through precision current-sense elements.
Is LT3509HMSE#TRPBF qualified for automotive under-hood applications?
Yes, the LT3509HMSE#TRPBF is qualified for automotive under-hood use with a guaranteed operating junction temperature range of –40°C to 150°C (H-grade). It includes overtemperature shutdown, 60V transient tolerance, and stable 0.8V reference over temperature-meeting key requirements for engine control units, ADAS domain controllers, and infotainment systems deployed in high-ambient environments.
