Product details
Overview
LT3990EDD#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a 62V, 350mA monolithic step-down regulator with integrated boost and catch diodes, 2.5µA quiescent current at 12VIN to 3.3VOUT, low-ripple Burst Mode operation (<5mVP-P), and programmable undervoltage lockout (1.19V threshold). It delivers regulated power in automotive battery systems, industrial supplies, and portable electronics where wide input range and ultra-low IQ are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LT3990EDD#TRPBF datasheet, LT3990EDD#TRPBF pinout, LT3990EDD#TRPBF application, or LT3990EDD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10-lead DFN (3mm × 3mm) thermal performance (θJA = 45°C/W), fixed 5V output variant, 0.7µA shutdown current, and FMEA-tolerant design for adjacent-pin fault resilience.
Technical Context
The LT3990EDD#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control with internal bipolar NPN switch, integrated Schottky boost and catch diodes, and an error amplifier servoing the VC node via FB feedback. Its oscillator frequency is resistor-programmable from 200kHz to 2.2MHz using the RT pin.
Burst Mode operation reduces quiescent current to 1.8µA at light loads while maintaining <5mVP-P output ripple; the power good (PG) flag asserts when VFB reaches 90% of regulation, and catch diode current limiting (450mA typical) protects against shorted outputs under high-VIN conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.2V to 62V - supports direct connection to 48V industrial rails and automotive batteries without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 350mA - maximum continuous load capability with thermal derating per θJA = 45°C/W in DFN package. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5µA at 12VIN/3.3VOUT - enables >10-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz–2.2MHz - adjustable via RT-to-GND resistor; higher frequencies allow smaller magnetics (e.g., 33µH at 400kHz). |
| Output Ripple | <5mVP-P in Burst Mode - meets noise-sensitive analog supply requirements without additional LDO post-regulation. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.7µA - ensures minimal drain during system sleep states. |
| Feedback Voltage | 1.21V ±1.25% - sets precision output regulation; used with external divider for adjustable versions or internal for fixed 5V (LT3990-5). |
Pinout & Package
LT3990EDD#TRPBF uses a 10-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic DFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 11) soldered to PCB ground for optimal thermal performance (θJA = 45°C/W, θJC = 10°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (FB) | Feedback reference input | Regulated to 1.21V; connects to resistor divider tap for output voltage setting (not used in fixed 5V variant). |
| Pin 2 (PG) | Power good open-drain flag | Asserts high (via external pull-up) when VOUT reaches 90% of target; valid only if VIN > 4.2V and EN/UVLO high. |
| Pin 3 (BD) | Boost diode anode | Connects to external boost diode anode; also powers internal bias regulator when >3.2V (e.g., tied to VOUT for efficiency gain). |
| Pin 4 (BOOST) | Bootstrap drive voltage | Supplies elevated gate drive to internal bipolar NPN switch; requires external capacitor to generate ~VIN + 5V. |
| Pin 5 (SW) | Switch node | Internal power switch output; connects directly to inductor; carries high di/dt switching current. |
| Pin 6 (FB/VOUT) | Feedback or fixed-output sense | In LT3990-5 variants like LT3990EDD#TRPBF, this pin is internally connected to the 5V regulation node (VOUT), not FB. |
| Pin 7 (EN/UVLO) | Enable and undervoltage lockout | Active-high enable with 1.19V rising threshold and 35mV hysteresis; disables regulator below 4.2V VIN unless grounded. |
| Pin 8 (VIN) | Main power input | Supplies internal circuitry and switch; must be locally bypassed with ≥1µF X7R ceramic capacitor. |
| Pins 9, 10, 11 (GND) | Ground return paths | Three GND terminals including exposed thermal pad (Pin 11); all must connect to low-impedance PCB ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Schottky diodes | Eliminates need for two external diodes (boost and catch), reducing BOM count and layout area by ~30%. |
| FMEA-tolerant pinout | NC pins (3,5,7,10) and redundant FB/VOUT pins ensure safe operation during adjacent-pin shorts or floating pins. |
| Low-ripple Burst Mode | Maintains <5mVP-P output ripple at µA-level loads-critical for powering RF ICs and precision ADCs without added filtering. |
| Programmable UVLO | EN/UVLO threshold (1.19V) and hysteresis (35mV) allow custom brown-out behavior without external comparators. |
| Thermally enhanced DFN | 3mm × 3mm footprint with exposed pad achieves 45°C/W junction-to-ambient, enabling 350mA continuous output at +85°C ambient. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3630EMSE#TRPBF | 40V max VIN, 300mA output, 17µA IQ, MSOP-16 package | Lower voltage rating and higher IQ make it unsuitable for 48V industrial or automotive use; better for cost-sensitive 24V-only systems. | Select only if input never exceeds 40V and thermal budget allows larger MSOP package. |
| TPS54332DR | 28V max VIN, 3.5A output, 4.5µA IQ, SOIC-8 package | Higher current but narrower VIN range; lacks integrated diodes and PG flag; requires external catch diode. | Choose when >350mA load is needed at ≤28V input and board space permits SOIC-8 + external diode. |
Compared with LTC3630EMSE#TRPBF and TPS54332DR, LT3990EDD#TRPBF uniquely combines 62V operation, 350mA output, integrated diodes, sub-3µA IQ, and FMEA-safe DFN packaging-making it the only option for compact, high-reliability 48V-to-5V conversion in harsh environments.

FAQ
What is the output voltage configuration of LT3990EDD#TRPBF?
The LT3990EDD#TRPBF is the fixed 5V output variant of the LT3990 family. Unlike the adjustable LT3990, it does not require external feedback resistors-the internal VOUT pin (Pin 6) is pre-configured to regulate precisely to 5V (4.94V to 5.06V over temperature). This eliminates resistor placement errors and saves PCB area in cost-sensitive designs.
Does LT3990EDD#TRPBF require an external boost capacitor?
Yes, LT3990EDD#TRPBF requires an external ceramic capacitor (typically 0.1µF X7R) between BOOST and SW pins to generate the elevated gate drive voltage needed for full saturation of the internal bipolar NPN switch. Without this capacitor, the switch cannot turn on fully, causing excessive conduction loss and potential thermal shutdown.
How does the power good (PG) flag behave on LT3990EDD#TRPBF?
The PG pin on LT3990EDD#TRPBF is an open-drain output that remains low until the regulated 5V output reaches 90% (4.5V) of its final value. It becomes valid only when both VIN exceeds 4.2V and EN/UVLO is high. An external pull-up resistor (e.g., 10kΩ to 5V) is required to assert the high state, enabling reliable power sequencing in multi-rail systems.
Can LT3990EDD#TRPBF operate safely during automotive cold-crank conditions?
Yes, LT3990EDD#TRPBF is rated for minimum input voltage of 4.2V and operates continuously down to this level-fully supporting automotive cold-crank events (typically 4.0–4.5V). Its accurate programmable undervoltage lockout (1.19V EN/UVLO threshold) prevents erratic startup, and the 0.7µA shutdown current minimizes battery drain during cranking-induced brownouts.
What thermal considerations apply to LT3990EDD#TRPBF in its DFN package?
LT3990EDD#TRPBF uses a 10-lead 3mm × 3mm DFN with exposed thermal pad (Pin 11). To achieve the specified θJA = 45°C/W, the pad must be soldered to a minimum 200mm² copper pour connected to 2+ internal ground planes via ≥6 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter). Insufficient copper area or missing vias will cause junction temperatures to exceed 125°C at full 350mA load.
