Product details
Overview
LT8364EMSE#PBF from Analog Devices is a current-mode DC/DC converter IC with a 60V, 4A integrated power switch, supporting boost, SEPIC, and inverting topologies from 2.8V to 60V input. It delivers up to 48V output at 1A (VIN=24V), operates down to 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 LT8364EMSE#PBF datasheet, LT8364EMSE#PBF pinout, LT8364EMSE#PBF application, or LT8364EMSE#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its single FBX pin enabling both positive/negative output programming, programmable 300kHz–2MHz switching frequency via RT resistor, BIAS pin for efficiency optimization, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use.
Technical Context
The LT8364EMSE#PBF employs fixed-frequency current-mode control with external compensation (VC pin) and dual error amplifiers-one active for positive outputs (1.60V FBX reference), the other for negative outputs (–0.80V reference). Its unique single feedback architecture eliminates topology-specific pins while maintaining precise regulation across all three configurations.
Switching behavior is fully configurable via SYNC/MODE pin: Burst Mode (<0.14V) enables 9µA IQ and low ripple at light loads; pulse-skip (floating) maintains clock alignment; external sync (square wave 300kHz–2MHz) locks frequency; SSFM (≥1.7V or 100k-to-GND) reduces EMI by ±14%–28% frequency deviation. Frequency foldback and programmable soft-start (2µA SS charge current) further enhance startup robustness.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.8V to 60V - supports direct battery connection in 12V/24V/48V automotive and industrial systems without pre-regulation. |
| Switch Rating | 60V, 4A - enables 48V boost from 12V input at ≥1A continuous output with margin for transients. |
| Quiescent Current | 9µA in Burst Mode - sustains >10-year battery life in always-on telematics modules with <15mV output ripple. |
| Switching Frequency | 300kHz to 2MHz (RT-programmable) - allows trade-off between inductor size (higher fSW → smaller L) and efficiency (lower fSW → lower switching loss). |
| FBX Reference Voltage | +1.60V or –0.80V - single-pin topology selection enables +VOUT (boost/SEPIC) or –VOUT (inverting) without external logic or configuration resistors. |
| BIAS Pin Function | Accepts 4.4V–VIN supply - offloads INTVCC regulator from VIN, improving full-load efficiency by reducing input current draw at high output power. |
| Package Thermal Resistance | θJA = 45°C/W (MSOP-16) - requires exposed pad soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal management in 3W+ applications. |
Pinout & Package
LT8364EMSE#PBF uses a thermally enhanced 16-lead MSOP package with four pins removed (MSE16 variation), featuring an exposed pad (Pin 17) that must be soldered to PGND/GND for thermal and electrical performance. Pin count is 16 functional terminals including PGND/GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN/UVLO | Enable / Undervoltage Lockout Input | 1.6V rising threshold with 80mV hysteresis - enables programmable VIN turn-on/off via resistor divider; <0.2V reduces VIN current to <1µA for deep shutdown. |
| VIN | Main Input Supply | 2.8V–60V rated - must be locally bypassed with low-ESR capacitor placed adjacent to exposed pad PGND copper near EN/UVLO. |
| INTVCC | Internal 3.2V Regulator Output | Supplies internal circuitry; requires 1µF ceramic bypass to GND; cannot be externally loaded or driven. |
| BIAS | Secondary Input for INTVCC | Accepts 4.4V–VIN supply - when active, shifts INTVCC load from VIN to BIAS, improving system efficiency especially in SEPIC where VOUT ≈ VIN. |
| VC | Error Amplifier Output | Connects to external RC compensation network - sets loop bandwidth and phase margin across wide VIN/VOUT ranges. |
| FBX | Feedback Input | Single pin for +1.60V (positive VOUT) or –0.80V (negative VOUT) regulation - eliminates need for topology-selecting logic or extra pins. |
| RT | Frequency Programming | Resistor to GND sets fSW from 300kHz to 2MHz - enables optimization of magnetics size vs. EMI vs. efficiency. |
| SS | Soft-Start Control | 2µA constant-current charge - controls inrush current ramp rate; internal 220Ω MOSFET discharges during fault/shutdown. |
| SYNC/MODE | Mode Selection & Clock Sync | Five modes: Burst (<0.14V), Pulse-skip (float), Sync (external clock), SSFM (≥1.7V), or Burst+SSFM (100k-to-GND) - configures light-load IQ, EMI, and transient response. |
| SW1/SW2 | Power Switch Outputs | 60V, 4A internal MOSFET drains - minimize trace area to reduce EMI; connect directly to inductor and diode/anode. |
| PGND/GND | Power & Signal Ground | Exposed pad (Pin 17) is primary thermal path - must be soldered to continuous copper ground plane under IC for θJC = 10°C/W. |
Key Features

FAQ
What topology configurations does the LT8364EMSE#PBF support?
The LT8364EMSE#PBF supports boost, SEPIC, and inverting converter topologies using a single FBX feedback pin. For positive outputs (e.g., 48V boost), FBX regulates to +1.60V; for negative outputs (e.g., –15V), it regulates to –0.80V. No external logic or pin strapping is needed-the topology is determined solely by the external resistor divider connection and circuit layout. This eliminates redesign effort when switching between output polarities in the same product family.
How does the BIAS pin improve efficiency in the LT8364EMSE#PBF?
The BIAS pin on the LT8364EMSE#PBF accepts a secondary 4.4V–VIN supply to power the internal 3.2V INTVCC regulator, thereby reducing current draw from the main VIN rail. In SEPIC applications where VOUT ≈ VIN, connecting BIAS to VOUT can improve full-load efficiency by up to 3%. The LT8364EMSE#PBF automatically selects between VIN and BIAS based on voltage thresholds-no external control logic is required.
Can the LT8364EMSE#PBF be synchronized to an external clock, and what are the requirements?
Yes, the LT8364EMSE#PBF can be synchronized to an external clock via the SYNC/MODE pin. The input must be a square wave with 20%–80% duty cycle, valley <0.4V and peak >1.7V (up to 6V), and frequency between 300kHz and 2MHz. When synchronized, the LT8364EMSE#PBF operates in pulse-skip mode-not Burst Mode-to maintain regulation alignment. The RT resistor should be set to match or fall below the lowest expected sync frequency.
What is the purpose of the exposed pad on the LT8364EMSE#PBF MSOP package?
The exposed pad (Pin 17) on the LT8364EMSE#PBF MSOP package serves as both PGND and GND and is the primary thermal conduction path from the die to the PCB. It must be soldered to a continuous copper ground plane to achieve θJC = 10°C/W and prevent thermal shutdown under load. Failure to solder the pad results in >40°C higher junction temperature and potential reliability degradation in sustained 2W+ operation.
Is the LT8364EMSE#PBF qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the LT8364EMSE#PBF is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications (Grade E, –40°C to +125°C junction temperature) and is manufactured under controlled automotive processes. It includes built-in protections-overcurrent (7.5A), thermal shutdown (>170°C), UVLO, and INTVCC undervoltage-that meet ISO 16750-2 and ISO 7637-2 stress test requirements for engine control, infotainment, and ADAS modules.
