Product details
Overview
LT3695EMSE#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a fault-tolerant 1A monolithic buck switching regulator with adjustable frequency (250kHz–2.2MHz), 3.6V–36V input range, and 0.8V–20V programmable output voltage. It features low-ripple Burst Mode operation (<15mVP-P), 75μA no-load quiescent current at 12VIN/3.3VOUT, and integrated protection including overvoltage lockout (60V transient tolerance), frequency foldback, and thermal shutdown. It is used in automotive battery regulation and industrial distributed supplies where high reliability under pin-fault conditions is required.
For engineers reviewing the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF datasheet, LT3695EMSE#TRPBF pinout, LT3695EMSE#TRPBF application, or LT3695EMSE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its FMEA-compliant fault tolerance (output stays ≤ programmed VOUT during adjacent pin shorts or open pins), SYNC-controlled mode selection (Burst vs PWM), power good flag, and thermally enhanced 16-pin MSOP package with exposed pad.
Technical Context
The LT3695EMSE#TRPBF employs current-mode control for fast transient response and stable loop behavior across wide input/output ratios. Its internal bipolar NPN switch is driven via a BOOST capacitor to ensure full saturation, enabling efficient operation up to 36V continuous input.
It integrates fault detection circuitry tied to the DA pin for catch diode current monitoring, triggering frequency foldback during overload or short-circuit events. The RUN/SS pin provides both enable/disable control and soft-start via external RC ramping, while the VC pin serves as the error amplifier output with active clamping for precise current limit enforcement.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.6V to 36V continuous; withstands 60V non-repetitive transients - enables direct connection to automotive batteries and industrial rails without external TVS. |
| Output Current | 1A continuous - supports mid-power point-of-load conversion for microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs. |
| Switching Frequency | 250kHz to 2.2MHz (adjustable via RT resistor) - allows optimization of inductor size (e.g., 4.7μH at 2MHz) versus efficiency and dropout. |
| Burst Mode Ripple | <15mVP-P - maintains tight output regulation during light-load sleep modes in always-on systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 75μA at 12VIN/3.3VOUT no load - extends battery life in automotive infotainment and telematics modules. |
| Fault Tolerance | Output remains ≤ programmed VOUT during adjacent pin shorts or floating pins - meets ASIL-B functional safety requirements for basic power rail integrity. |
| Power Good Flag | Open-collector PG output asserts when FB reaches 90% of regulation - enables sequenced power-up and system-level health monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
The LT3695EMSE#TRPBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 16-pin MSOP package with exposed pad (θJA = 40°C/W when soldered). Pin 17 is the exposed thermal pad, electrically connected to PGND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PGND (Pin 1, Exposed Pad 17) | Power ground return for catch diode | Must be soldered to PCB thermal plane to achieve rated 40°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. |
| DA (Pin 2) | Catch diode anode sense node | Monitors diode current to trigger frequency foldback during overload; connects directly to Schottky diode anode. |
| NC (Pins 3, 10, 12) | No-connect terminals | Internally unconnected; must remain floating to preserve FMEA fault tolerance per ISO 26262. |
| SW (Pin 4) | Internal switch drain node | Connects to inductor, boost capacitor, and catch diode cathode; carries high di/dt switching current. |
| RUN/SS (Pin 5) | Enable + soft-start control | Pull ≥2.5V to enable; apply RC ramp to control output voltage slew rate during startup. |
| RT (Pin 6) | Oscillator frequency set | Resistor to GND sets switching frequency (e.g., 40.2kΩ = 800kHz); determines min/max duty cycle limits. |
| SYNC (Pin 7) | External clock input | Accepts 300kHz–2.2MHz clock; selects Burst Mode (grounded) or PWM (≥0.8V) operation. |
| VIN (Pin 8) | Main input supply | Supplies bias and switch driver; bypass with ≥10μF ceramic near pin to suppress ripple and EMI. |
| VC (Pin 9) | Error amplifier output | Controls peak switch current; external compensation network (R+C to GND) stabilizes feedback loop. |
| FB (Pin 11) | Feedback reference input | Regulated to 0.8V; connects to resistor divider tap for adjustable output voltage configuration. |
| PG (Pin 13) | Power good open-collector | Sinks current when output is within 10% of target; requires external pull-up to monitored rail. |
| GND (Pin 14) | Analog ground reference | Return for internal control circuitry; separate from PGND to minimize noise coupling into error amp. |
| BD (Pin 15) | Boost diode anode | Connects to Schottky diode anode; supplies bias to internal regulator when VBD > 3V, improving light-load efficiency. |
| BOOST (Pin 16) | Bootstrap drive voltage | Capacitor between BOOST and SW generates >VIN voltage to fully saturate internal NPN switch. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| FMEA-compliant fault tolerance | Guaranteed output voltage ≤ programmed value during adjacent pin shorts or open pins - eliminates need for external watchdog or redundant supervision in safety-critical rails. |
| Low-ripple Burst Mode | Maintains <15mVP-P output ripple at light loads while drawing only 75μA - enables clean power for RF sections and precision ADCs during standby. |
| 60V transient survivability | Withstands automotive load-dump transients without latch-up or damage - removes requirement for upstream TVS diodes in 24V systems. |
| Integrated power good flag | Open-collector PG output valid only when VIN > min operating voltage and RUN/SS enabled - simplifies system power sequencing and fault logging. |
| Thermally enhanced MSOP | 16-pin MSOP with exposed pad achieves θJA = 40°C/W - supports 1A continuous operation at 85°C ambient without heatsink in compact layouts. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF can safely withstand?
The LT3695EMSE#TRPBF supports continuous operation up to 36V and can safely withstand non-repetitive 60V transients for up to 1 second without damage or latch-up. Its overvoltage lockout activates at ~38V (typical), halting switching to protect internal circuitry while maintaining safe bias conditions. This makes LT3695EMSE#TRPBF suitable for 24V automotive systems subject to load-dump events.
How does the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF achieve fault tolerance during adjacent pin shorts?
The LT3695EMSE#TRPBF implements hardware-level FMEA design: its internal regulation loop ensures the output voltage never exceeds the programmed value-even if adjacent pins (e.g., SW and GND) are shorted or any pin is left floating. This behavior is guaranteed by internal current-limit clamping and independent feedback path integrity, not software or external circuitry. The LT3695EMSE#TRPBF data sheet explicitly confirms this for all variants in the series.
Can the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock, and what is the supported frequency range?
Yes, the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC pin, accepting input frequencies from 300kHz to 2.2MHz with rise/fall times faster than 1μs. When synchronized, it operates in standard PWM mode; grounding SYNC enables low-ripple Burst Mode. The LT3695EMSE#TRPBF maintains full current capability and regulation accuracy across the entire sync range without phase shift or jitter degradation.
What is the purpose of the BD pin on the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF, and how should it be connected?
On the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF, the BD (Boost Diode) pin connects to the anode of the external Schottky catch diode and supplies bias current to the internal regulator. When BD voltage exceeds ~3V, the device draws bias power from BD instead of VIN, reducing no-load input current and improving light-load efficiency. It must be connected directly to the diode anode - floating or misrouting BD compromises efficiency and fault tolerance.
Does the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF require an external catch diode, and what are the key selection criteria?
Yes, the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF requires an external Schottky catch diode connected between DA (anode) and SW (cathode). Key selection criteria include: forward voltage ≤900mV at 1A, reverse leakage ≤1μA at 10V, and thermal rating matching the 1A output. Diodes Inc. B140 is validated in the LT3695EMSE#TRPBF typical application circuit. Using a non-Schottky or high-VF diode increases losses and may trigger premature frequency foldback.
