Product details
Overview
LT3663EDCB#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 1.5MHz fixed-frequency, current-mode step-down switching regulator with programmable output current limit (0.4A–1.2A), integrated boost diode, and internal compensation. It operates from 7.5V to 36V input (60V transient tolerant) and delivers up to 1.2A at fixed 5V output in thermally enhanced 8-lead 2mm × 3mm DFN package. Used in automotive battery regulation and industrial 24V supply conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LT3663EDCB#TRPBF datasheet, LT3663EDCB#TRPBF pinout, LT3663EDCB#TRPBF application, or LT3663EDCB#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include VIN range (7.5–36V), programmable current limit via ILIM resistor, thermal performance of exposed-pad DFN, and compatibility with 5V fixed-output system architectures requiring robust overvoltage/undervoltage lockout.
Technical Context
The LT3663EDCB#TRPBF implements peak current mode control with 1.5MHz switching frequency, enabling compact external components. Its internal bipolar NPN switch features low VCE(SAT) (275mV @ 1A) and is driven by an integrated boost circuit generating >2.3V above SW for full saturation.
Output voltage regulation is achieved via feedback to the FB pin (0.8V reference), while output current limiting uses servo action on the ISENSE pin, comparing average inductor current against a voltage set by the ILIM resistor network. Input protection includes undervoltage lockout (7.5V rising) and overvoltage lockout (39V typical).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7.5V to 36V continuous; withstands 60V nonrepetitive transients - supports unregulated 12V/24V supplies and automotive battery inputs. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5V ±1.5% - eliminates external feedback resistors; suitable for powering logic, sensors, and interface ICs directly. |
| Max Output Current Limit | Programmable 0.4A to 1.2A via ILIM resistor - enables precise power dissipation control and allows smaller inductors/diodes. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz (±150kHz) - permits use of sub-10µH inductors and reduces output ripple without increasing EMI filtering complexity. |
| Switch VCE(SAT) | 275mV at 1A - minimizes conduction loss and improves efficiency at high load currents. |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 64°C/W - achievable with exposed pad soldered to PCB ground plane and thermal vias; enables 1.2A operation at +85°C ambient. |
| Shutdown Current | ≤2µA - ensures negligible battery drain during system sleep modes in automotive or portable applications. |
Pinout & Package
LT3663EDCB#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic DFN package (2mm × 3mm) with exposed GND pad (Pin 9) requiring solder connection to PCB ground for thermal and electrical integrity. Package outline complies with LTC DWG #05-08-1718 Rev A.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input supply | Accepts 7.5–36V; bypassed with ≥1µF ceramic capacitor; must handle pulsed input current. |
| RUN | Enable/shutdown control | Logic-high (>2.5V) enables regulation; grounded disables switching and reduces quiescent current to ≤2µA. |
| FB | Feedback reference node | Regulated to 0.8V; connected to resistor divider tap for adjustable versions - not used in LT3663EDCB#TRPBF (fixed 5V). |
| ILIM | Current limit programming | Resistor-to-GND sets output current limit (e.g., 36.5kΩ = 1.0A); determines max average inductor current. |
| BOOST | Internal switch gate drive booster | Internally connected to BOOST diode cathode; requires 0.1µF capacitor to SW for efficient NPN saturation. |
| SW | Switch node | Connects to inductor, catch diode, and BOOST capacitor; carries high di/dt pulses - layout critical for EMI control. |
| ISENSE | Current sense input | Anode of internal BOOST diode; connects to positive terminal of external current sense resistor (RSENSE2). |
| VOUT | Regulated output return | Negative terminal of internal current sense resistor; tied to output capacitor negative and load ground. |
| GND (exposed pad) | Power and signal ground | Pin 9 exposed pad must be soldered to large PCB ground plane with multiple thermal vias for thermal management. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated boost diode | Eliminates external Schottky diode in boost path - reduces BOM count and board area while maintaining >2.3V BOOST-SW differential. |
| Programmable current limit | 0.4A–1.2A via single ILIM resistor - enables system-level power budgeting and protects downstream components during overload. |
| Internal compensation | No external compensation components required - simplifies design, improves stability margin, and accelerates time-to-market. |
| 60V transient tolerance | Withstands automotive load-dump events without shutdown - avoids system reset during battery disconnect/reconnect cycles. |
| Thermally enhanced DFN | 2mm × 3mm footprint with exposed GND pad - achieves 64°C/W θJA with standard 2-layer PCB, enabling high-power density designs. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage of the LT3663EDCB#TRPBF?
The LT3663EDCB#TRPBF is a fixed 5V output version of the LT3663 family. Its regulated output voltage is 5.0V ±1.5% over temperature and line, with no external feedback resistors required. This is confirmed in the "Order Information" table and Electrical Characteristics section of the datasheet, where LT3663EDCB#TRPBF is explicitly listed alongside LT3663EDCB-5#TRPBF as a 5V variant. The LT3663EDCB#TRPBF does not support adjustable output voltages.
Does the LT3663EDCB#TRPBF require an external boost diode?
No, the LT3663EDCB#TRPBF integrates a boost diode internally - its anode is connected to the ISENSE pin and cathode to the BOOST pin. This eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode in the bootstrap circuit, reducing component count and PCB area. The datasheet confirms this in the "Features" list ("Integrated Boost Diode") and Pin Functions description, and the functional block diagram shows D2 as internal. External diodes are only needed for specialized configurations (e.g., <2.5V outputs), which do not apply to the 5V LT3663EDCB#TRPBF.
What is the maximum output current capability of the LT3663EDCB#TRPBF?
The LT3663EDCB#TRPBF supports a programmable output current limit from 0.4A to 1.2A, set by an external resistor on the ILIM pin. With RILIM = 36.5kΩ, the device delivers up to 1.0A; with 28.7kΩ, it reaches 1.2A. This current limit is the average inductor current, tightly controlled by the internal servo amplifier. The datasheet specifies "VOUT Current Limit Range: 0.4A to 1.2A" and provides Table 1 correlating resistor values to limit thresholds - all applicable to LT3663EDCB#TRPBF as a member of the LT3663 family.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the LT3663EDCB#TRPBF use?
The LT3663EDCB#TRPBF uses an 8-lead plastic DFN package measuring 2mm × 3mm with an exposed GND pad (Pin 9). Its thermal resistance is θJA = 64°C/W when mounted on a standard 2-layer PCB with the exposed pad soldered to a solid ground plane and thermal vias. This value is specified in the "Pin Configuration" section and Package Description drawing (LTC DWG #05-08-1718 Rev A), and enables full 1.2A output at +85°C ambient with proper layout.
How does the LT3663EDCB#TRPBF handle input overvoltage conditions?
The LT3663EDCB#TRPBF incorporates input overvoltage lockout (OVP) that disables switching when VIN exceeds 39V (typical), protecting internal circuitry during transients. It tolerates nonrepetitive 60V transients for up to 1 second without damage, as stated in Absolute Maximum Ratings. During OVP event, the device enters safe high-impedance state - output discharges through load, but no power is delivered. This behavior is confirmed in the "Features" list ("Overvoltage Lockout Protects Circuit through 60V Transients") and Electrical Characteristics table (VIN Overvoltage Lockout: 36–41V).
