Product details
Overview
LT8334RDE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a current-mode DC/DC converter IC with a 40V, 5A internal power switch, supporting boost, SEPIC, and inverting topologies from 2.8V to 40V input. It delivers ultralow 9μA quiescent current in Burst Mode, maintains <15mV output ripple, and features programmable 300kHz–2MHz switching frequency for industrial power supplies requiring high efficiency at light loads.
For engineers reviewing the LT8334RDE#TRPBF datasheet, LT8334RDE#TRPBF pinout, LT8334RDE#TRPBF application, or LT8334RDE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its single-feedback-pin topology flexibility, BIAS pin for INTVCC efficiency optimization, SYNC/MODE pin for EMI-reducing spread-spectrum modulation, and thermal performance in the 4mm × 3mm DFN package.
Technical Context
The LT8334RDE#TRPBF implements fixed-frequency current-mode control with dual error amplifiers-one optimized for positive FBX regulation (1.60V reference) and another for negative outputs (–0.80V reference)-enabling topology-agnostic feedback via a single pin. Its oscillator supports precise frequency programming via RT resistor and external synchronization across 300kHz–2MHz.
Burst Mode operation uses sleep cycles with 9μA VIN current while delivering micro-pulses to sustain regulation; pulse-skipping mode maintains clock alignment for tighter transient response. Overcurrent protection triggers at 9.4A (SS pin discharge), and thermal shutdown activates above 170°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.8V to 40V - supports wide-input industrial and automotive battery systems without pre-regulation. |
| Switch Rating | 40V VSW, 5A peak current - enables high-power density designs with single-switch topologies up to 24V output. |
| Quiescent Current | 9μA in Burst Mode - extends battery life in always-on portable medical or sensor nodes. |
| Switching Frequency | 300kHz to 2MHz (programmable) - allows EMI-sensitive designs to avoid critical bands or optimize inductor size. |
| FBX Regulation Voltage | +1.60V or –0.80V - selects boost/SEPIC (+) or inverting (–) configuration without external op-amps. |
| BIAS Pin Threshold | 4.4V to VIN - enables efficient INTVCC sourcing from VOUT in SEPIC, reducing VIN load and improving full-load efficiency. |
| Soft-Start Charge Current | 2μA - sets controlled ramp rate with external SS capacitor, limiting inrush into output capacitors. |
Pinout & Package
The LT8334RDE#TRPBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 12-lead 4mm × 3mm plastic DFN package with exposed PGND pad (Pin 13) requiring soldering to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN/UVLO (Pin 2) | Enable and undervoltage lockout input | 1.6V rising threshold with 80mV hysteresis - enables system-level brownout protection and controlled startup sequencing. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main input supply | Accepts 2.8V–40V; local bypassing mandatory near pin and exposed pad - minimizes input loop inductance for stable high-current switching. |
| INTVCC (Pin 4) | Internal 3.2V regulator output | Must be bypassed with 1μF ceramic to GND - powers gate drivers and logic; not externally loaded. |
| BIAS (Pin 5) | Secondary supply for INTVCC | Enables >4.4V supply to reduce VIN current draw - improves efficiency in SEPIC where VOUT ≥ VIN. |
| VC (Pin 6) | Error amplifier output | Connects to external compensation network - sets loop bandwidth and phase margin for stability across operating conditions. |
| FBX (Pin 7) | Topology-selectable feedback input | Regulates to +1.60V (boost/SEPIC) or –0.80V (inverting) - eliminates need for separate reference or polarity-reversal circuitry. |
| RT (Pin 8) | Frequency programming input | Resistor-to-GND sets fSW from 300kHz–2MHz - enables EMI tuning and inductor size optimization. |
| SS (Pin 9) | Soft-start timing node | 2μA constant current charges external capacitor - controls inductor current slew rate during startup and fault recovery. |
| SYNC/MODE (Pin 10) | Mode selection and clock sync | Selects Burst/Pulse-Skip/SSFM/SYNC via voltage or resistor - provides EMI reduction, efficiency trade-off control, and system clock alignment. |
| SW1/SW2 (Pins 11,12) | Power switch drain terminals | Parallel 40V/5A MOSFET outputs - low RDS(ON) (70mΩ) reduces conduction loss; minimize trace area to limit EMI. |
| PGND/GND (Pin 13) | Power and signal ground | Exposed thermal pad - must be soldered to large copper area for θJA = 43°C/W and reliable 150°C operation. |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the LT8334RDE#TRPBF in boost configuration?
The LT8334RDE#TRPBF supports up to 2.75A output current at VIN = 16V and VOUT = 24V in boost configuration, as verified in the Typical Application circuit (TA01a). This assumes proper thermal management via the exposed PGND pad and use of recommended external components including a 2.2µH inductor and low-ESR output capacitors. Peak switch current is internally limited to 7.75A, but practical output current depends on duty cycle, thermal design, and efficiency losses.
How does the LT8334RDE#TRPBF achieve ultralow 9μA quiescent current?
The LT8334RDE#TRPBF achieves 9μA quiescent current in Burst Mode by entering deep sleep cycles between micro-pulse energy deliveries to the output capacitor. During sleep, most internal circuitry-including the oscillator and gate driver-is disabled, leaving only essential bias currents active. The FBX pin's regulation accuracy and minimum on-time control ensure stable output voltage maintenance while minimizing average input current across light-load conditions.
Can the LT8334RDE#TRPBF generate a negative output voltage, and how is it configured?
Yes, the LT8334RDE#TRPBF can generate a negative output voltage using inverting topology. Configuration requires connecting the FBX pin to a resistor divider between VOUT (negative rail) and PGND, which pulls FBX to –0.80V. The internal error amplifier A2 then regulates based on this negative reference, eliminating need for external inverting op-amps or level shifters. Full details are provided in the Applications Information section of the LT8334RDE#TRPBF datasheet.
What is the purpose of the BIAS pin on the LT8334RDE#TRPBF, and when should it be used?
The BIAS pin on the LT8334RDE#TRPBF supplies the INTVCC regulator when 4.4V ≤ BIAS ≤ VIN, diverting INTVCC current away from VIN to improve full-load efficiency. It is especially beneficial in SEPIC configurations where VOUT is close to or exceeds VIN-such as powering a 12V rail from a 9–36V input-allowing BIAS to be tied directly to VOUT. If unused, the BIAS pin must be tied to GND to prevent floating.
Does the LT8334RDE#TRPBF support external clock synchronization, and what are the voltage requirements?
Yes, the LT8334RDE#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC/MODE pin. The input square wave must have 20–80% duty cycle, valley voltage <0.4V, and peak voltage >1.7V (up to 6V). Synchronization is supported across 300kHz–2MHz, and the internal oscillator will lock to the external clock while maintaining pulse-skipping regulation. When synchronized, Burst Mode is disabled to ensure clock-aligned operation.
