Product details
Overview
LT8361IMSE#PBF from Analog Devices is a current-mode DC/DC converter with a 100V, 2A integrated switch, operating from 2.8V to 60V input. It supports boost, SEPIC, and inverting topologies via a single FBX feedback pin, delivers ≤9µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, and maintains <15mV output ripple-ideal for automotive infotainment power rails requiring wide VIN and low standby loss.
For engineers reviewing the LT8361IMSE#PBF datasheet, LT8361IMSE#PBF pinout, LT8361IMSE#PBF application, or LT8361IMSE#PBF equivalent, key selection factors include its 100V switch rating, programmable 300kHz–2MHz switching frequency, SYNC/MODE pin mode selection (Burst/Pulse-Skip/SSFM), BIAS pin efficiency optimization, and thermally enhanced MSOP-16 package with exposed PGND pad.
Technical Context
The LT8361IMSE#PBF employs fixed-frequency current-mode control with external RT resistor programming and internal slope compensation. Its dual-amplifier FBX architecture enables seamless positive (1.60V reference) or negative (–0.80V reference) output regulation without topology-specific pins.
It integrates UVLO with 1.6V turn-on/1.545V turn-off thresholds, programmable soft-start via SS pin (2µA charge current), and five SYNC/MODE pin configurations-including Burst Mode (≤9µA IQ), pulse-skip, external clock sync, and Spread Spectrum Frequency Modulation (±14–28% deviation) for EMI reduction.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.8V to 60V - supports 12V/24V/48V automotive and industrial bus inputs without pre-regulation |
| Switch Rating | 100V, 2A - enables high-step-up ratios (e.g., 12V→48V) and robustness against load dump transients |
| Quiescent Current | 9µA in Burst Mode - sustains >10-year battery life in always-on vehicle modules |
| Switching Frequency | 300kHz to 2MHz - adjustable via RT pin; avoids AM radio band and enables compact magnetics |
| Feedback Reference | +1.60V or –0.80V - single FBX pin supports both boost/SEPIC and inverting configurations |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive applications per AEC-Q100 Grade I |
| Package | 16-lead MSOP with 4 pins removed - thermally enhanced layout with exposed PGND pad (θJC = 10°C/W) |
Pinout & Package
The LT8361IMSE#PBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic MSOP package with pins 3, 4, 13, and 15 removed to ensure high-voltage spacing between SW and adjacent terminals. The exposed pad (Pin 17) is electrically connected to PGND/GND and must be soldered to a continuous PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN/UVLO | Enable / Undervoltage Lockout Input | Logic-controlled shutdown; 1.6V rising threshold enables operation; 80mV hysteresis prevents chatter during brownout |
| VIN | Main Input Supply | Primary power source for switch and internal circuitry; requires local 1µF ceramic bypass near pin |
| INTVCC | Internal 3.8V Regulator Output | Supplies gate drivers and logic; must be bypassed with 1µF ceramic; no external loading permitted |
| BIAS | Secondary Input for INTVCC | Accepts 4.4V–VIN supply to offload INTVCC current from VIN, improving full-load efficiency by ~2–4% |
| VC | Error Amplifier Output | Connects to external RC compensation network; sets loop bandwidth and phase margin |
| FBX | Feedback Input | Single pin accepts voltage divider from VOUT; selects +1.60V (boost/SEPIC) or –0.80V (inverting) regulation reference |
| RT | Frequency Programming | Resistor-to-GND sets fSW from 300kHz to 2MHz; enables EMI optimization and size/cost trade-offs |
| SS | Soft-Start Control | Capacitor-to-GND controls inrush current ramp rate; 2µA internal charge current defines startup time |
| SYNC/MODE | Mode Selection & Clock Sync | Five states: GND = Burst Mode; float = Pulse-Skip; 100k-to-GND = Burst+SSFM; INTVCC = Pulse-Skip+SSFM; external clock = Sync |
| SW | Power Switch Drain | 100V, 2A NMOS drain node; minimal trace area required to reduce EMI and ringing |
| PGND/GND | Power & Signal Ground | Exposed pad (Pin 17) is primary thermal path and low-impedance return for switch current and signal references |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single-FB Topology Flexibility | One resistor-divider network configures boost, SEPIC, or inverting outputs-reduces BOM count and layout variants |
| Burst Mode Efficiency | 9µA IQ at light loads preserves battery energy while maintaining <15mV output ripple-critical for always-on telematics |
| Spread Spectrum Modulation | ±14–28% frequency dithering reduces peak EMI by up to 10dB without filter redesign |
| BIAS Pin Efficiency Boost | Redirects INTVCC current from VIN to a higher-efficiency auxiliary rail (e.g., VOUT in SEPIC), cutting total losses by 0.5–1.2W at 1A |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Grade I (–40°C to +125°C) qualification ensures reliability in automotive engine compartments and ADAS ECUs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DC/DC controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3780EMSE#PBF | 4-switch synchronous controller; no integrated switch; requires external MOSFETs; supports 4V–36V input | Targeted at high-current (>5A), high-efficiency synchronous designs-not suitable for space-constrained 2A applications | Select only when >3A output current, synchronous rectification, or input <4V is required |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT8361IMSE#PBF?
The LT8361IMSE#PBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 60V on the VIN pin and supports continuous operation from 2.8V to 60V. This wide range enables direct connection to 48V industrial buses and 24V automotive systems, including transient-tolerant designs where load dump spikes are clamped externally. The 100V-rated internal switch provides margin for voltage overshoots without requiring additional protection circuitry.
How does the LT8361IMSE#PBF achieve 9µA quiescent current?
The LT8361IMSE#PBF achieves 9µA quiescent current in Burst Mode by entering deep sleep cycles between short, controlled energy bursts delivered to the output capacitor. During sleep, most internal circuitry-including the oscillator and gate drivers-is disabled, leaving only essential bias currents active. This architecture maintains regulation while minimizing average input current, making the LT8361IMSE#PBF ideal for battery-backed systems where multi-year standby life is critical.
Can the LT8361IMSE#PBF generate a negative output voltage?
Yes, the LT8361IMSE#PBF can generate a negative output voltage using its inverting configuration. By connecting the FBX pin to a resistor divider referenced to the output (VOUT) and system ground, the internal –0.80V reference engages amplifier A2, enabling stable negative regulation. This eliminates the need for separate inverting controller ICs and reduces bill-of-materials cost in applications such as op-amp bias supplies and sensor signal conditioning stages.
What is the purpose of the BIAS pin on the LT8361IMSE#PBF?
The BIAS pin on the LT8361IMSE#PBF supplies the INTVCC regulator independently from VIN when a valid 4.4V–VIN auxiliary voltage is present. This reduces VIN current draw by up to 90% under full load, directly improving system efficiency-especially in SEPIC topologies where VOUT may exceed VIN. For example, in a 24V→24V SEPIC, tying BIAS to VOUT cuts total power loss by 0.8W at 1A output, lowering thermal stress on the LT8361IMSE#PBF and upstream components.
Is the LT8361IMSE#PBF pin-compatible with other variants in the LT8361 family?
Yes, the LT8361IMSE#PBF shares identical pinout, footprint, and electrical interface with all LT8361 variants-including LT8361EMSE#PBF (commercial temp), LT8361HMSE#PBF (high-temp), and automotive-grade LT8361IMSE#WPBF. All use the same 16-lead MSOP package with pins 3, 4, 13, and 15 removed, and identical exposed PGND pad layout. This allows drop-in replacement across temperature grades without PCB revision, simplifying qualification and inventory management.
