Product details
Overview
LT8495EFE#PBF from Analog Devices is a monolithic SEPIC/boost/flyback DC/DC controller with integrated 2A/70V NPN power switch, programmable 250kHz–1.5MHz switching frequency, 9µA quiescent current in active operation, and dual supply pins (VIN/BIAS) enabling operation down to ~1V after startup. It delivers regulated 5V output at up to 1.0A (VIN >12V) in automotive ECU power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT8495EFE#PBF datasheet, LT8495EFE#PBF pinout, LT8495EFE#PBF application, or LT8495EFE#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its fault-tolerant TSSOP package, programmable POR/watchdog timing via CPOR/CWDT capacitors, low-ripple Burst Mode operation (<10mV ripple), and dual-supply efficiency optimization for battery-backed systems.
Technical Context
The LT8495EFE#PBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control with adjustable oscillator (RT pin), internal VC limiter for current limiting, and quadratic ramp compensation. Its power switch driver automatically selects between VIN and BIAS for base drive, enabling operation when either supply drops below 2.5V-critical for brownout resilience.
It integrates independent POR (CPOR-programmed tRST = 8.5–11.85ms) and watchdog timer (CWDT-programmed tWDU/tWDL), both functional even when VIN is removed. Fault tolerance in the TSSOP package ensures open or adjacent-pin shorts do not cause overvoltage-verified by internal FMEA design.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switch Rating | 70V collector-emitter breakdown; supports 60V SEPIC input or 32V boost/flyback with 60V ride-through. |
| Quiescent Current | 9µA at 12VIN→5VOUT; enables >10-year battery life in always-on portable monitoring systems. |
| Output Ripple | <10mV typical in Burst Mode with 47µF output capacitance-meets low-noise analog supply requirements. |
| Operating Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C junction; qualified for automotive ECU and industrial control environments. |
| Feedback Voltage | 1.202V ±24mV; sets precise output regulation via external resistor divider (e.g., 5.0V @ R1=100kΩ, R2=30.9kΩ). |
| Minimum On/Off Time | 95ns / 70ns; enables stable operation at high duty cycles and high input-to-output ratios. |
| UVLO Thresholds | SWEN rising threshold = 1.0V ±0.1V; RSTIN threshold = 92% of FB voltage (≈1.11V); supports robust undervoltage detection. |
Pinout & Package
LT8495EFE#PBF uses a 20-lead plastic TSSOP package with exposed pad (Pin 21 = GND), θJA = 38°C/W. All GND pins (3,4,11,13,14,15) and exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity. NC pins (4,9,17,19) are unconnected and must remain floating to preserve fault tolerance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BIAS (Pin 1) | Secondary supply input | Enables operation when VIN drops below 2.5V; draws current from output rail to sustain regulation during battery brownout. |
| FB (Pins 2,3) | Output voltage feedback | Regulates FB to 1.202V; determines output voltage via resistor divider; bias current <20nA minimizes divider error. |
| CPOR (Pin 5) | POR/reset delay timing | Capacitor sets tRST (8.5–11.85ms); controls minimum RST assertion time after power-up or RSTIN recovery. |
| CWDT (Pin 6) | Watchdog timing | Capacitor sets tWDU (14.9–20.9ms) and tWDL (580–812µs); defines watchdog window for microcontroller supervision. |
| RST (Pin 7) | Open-drain reset output | Asserts low when RSTIN <1.1V or during POR; sinks 1.25mA at <150mV-directly drives MCU reset inputs. |
| SWEN (Pin 12) | Switch enable control | UVLO threshold = 1.0V; resistor divider enables programmable input undervoltage lockout before startup. |
| SW (Pin 20) | Power switch collector | Connects to external inductor/diode; 70V rating supports wide input ranges; minimize trace area to reduce EMI. |
| GND (Pins 3,4,11,13,14,15 + Exposed Pad 21) | Ground reference | All GND connections must tie to local PCB ground plane; exposed pad is electrically and thermally GND. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fault-tolerant TSSOP layout | Adjacent-pin shorts or opens cannot raise output voltage above regulation-validated per FMEA analysis. |
| Low-ripple Burst Mode | Maintains <10mV output ripple at light loads while reducing IQ to <9µA-ideal for battery-powered sensors. |
| Dual-supply auto-selection | VIN/BIAS comparator selects lower-voltage source for NPN base drive, extending runtime when VIN sags. |
| Programmable watchdog & POR | Independent CPOR/CWDT capacitors set reset delay (tRST) and watchdog window (tWDU/tWDL) without firmware. |
| Frequency foldback | Reduces switching frequency when FB <1V-improves start-up control and prevents current limit instability. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the LT8495EFE#PBF in SEPIC topology?
The LT8495EFE#PBF supports up to 60V input in SEPIC configuration, as specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings and confirmed in Applications Information. This allows direct connection to 48V industrial buses or automotive load-dump scenarios without external clamping. The 70V-rated internal NPN switch provides sufficient margin for transient overvoltage events. Operation remains within specification up to 60V VIN with appropriate external components rated for the full stress.
How does the LT8495EFE#PBF achieve 9µA quiescent current?
The LT8495EFE#PBF achieves 9µA quiescent current through multiple design features: low-power Burst Mode operation that shuts down control circuitry between switching bursts, optimized bias networks with sub-20nA FB pin current, and dynamic supply selection (VIN/BIAS) that minimizes base drive losses. This value is measured at 12VIN → 5VOUT under light-load conditions and is guaranteed across the –40°C to 125°C operating range per Electrical Characteristics table.
Can the LT8495EFE#PBF operate with VIN below 2.5V after startup?
Yes-the LT8495EFE#PBF can operate with VIN as low as ~1V after startup by drawing power from the BIAS pin connected to the output rail. This is enabled by the internal supply-select logic that routes base drive current from whichever of VIN or BIAS is at lower voltage, provided it remains within 2.4V–34V. When VIN drops below 2.4V, BIAS automatically becomes the primary supply, extending battery life in brownout conditions without interrupting regulation.
What is the function of the NC pins on the LT8495EFE#PBF TSSOP package?
The NC pins (4, 9, 17, 19) on the LT8495EFE#PBF TSSOP package are internally unconnected and serve a critical fault-tolerance role: leaving them floating ensures that adjacent-pin shorts or opens cannot create unintended current paths or alter regulation. This design is verified per FMEA analysis and explicitly required in the datasheet-connecting or routing these pins risks compromising the device's overvoltage protection guarantee and may cause output overregulation.
How is the watchdog timeout period programmed on the LT8495EFE#PBF?
The watchdog timeout period on the LT8495EFE#PBF is programmed using an external capacitor on the CWDT pin (Pin 6). With CWDT = 1000pF, the upper boundary (tWDU) is 14.9–20.9ms and lower boundary (tWDL) is 580–812µs, as specified in Electrical Characteristics. These periods scale linearly with capacitance-doubling CWDT doubles both boundaries. The watchdog requires periodic WDI pin toggling within this window to prevent WDO assertion; no resistor or other component is needed beyond the capacitor.
