Product details
Overview
LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 65V, 0.5A PWM DC/DC converter IC in an 8-lead MSOP package, configurable as boost, SEPIC, or inverting regulator for bias supply generation in TFT-LCD and VFD displays. It features adjustable 200kHz–1.5MHz switching frequency, integrated soft-start, synchronization capability, and 2.55V–40V input range.
For engineers reviewing the LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF datasheet, LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF pinout, LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF application, or LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 0.5A switch current limit, 65V switch rating, MSOP-8 thermal performance (θJA = 35–40°C/W), UVLO programmability via SHDN pin, and compatibility with boost/SEPIC/inverting topologies requiring compact, high-voltage DC/DC conversion.
Technical Context
The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF employs constant-frequency current-mode control with internal slope compensation to ensure stability across duty cycles up to 85% at 200kHz. Its dual-feedback architecture supports both positive (1.204V reference) and negative (3mV reference) FBX configurations, enabling seamless topology reconfiguration without changing the IC.
It integrates a high-gain SHDN pin accepting slowly ramping enable signals, frequency foldback during soft-start (reducing fOSC to 1/6 nominal), and a 280kΩ internal soft-start charging resistor. The 0.04Ω typical VCE(SAT) switch delivers low conduction loss at 0.4A, while the RT pin allows precise oscillator setting or external SYNC clock locking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switch Rating | 65V collector-emitter breakdown - enables direct regulation from 48V industrial rails or automotive transients without external clamping. |
| Switch Current Limit | 0.5A (typical at 50% duty cycle) - sets maximum deliverable output power in boost/SEPIC; derates with duty cycle per datasheet curves. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.55V to 40V - supports wide-input applications including battery-powered GPS receivers and DSL modems with unregulated inputs. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 1.5MHz (adjustable via RT or SYNC) - allows EMI optimization and small external magnetics (e.g., 22µH for 5V→12V boost). |
| Feedback Reference | 1.204V (noninverting) or 3mV (inverting) - enables single-resistor VOUT programming for both boost/SEPIC and inverting topologies. |
| Soft-Start Time | Programmable via SS capacitor (e.g., 100nF → ~28ms ramp) - prevents inrush current in bias supplies for sensitive display panels. |
| UVLO Threshold | User-configurable via SHDN resistor divider (1.21V–1.40V hysteresis) - ensures clean startup only when input meets system-level brownout requirements. |
Pinout & Package
LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic MSOP package (MS8E) with exposed pad (Pin 9 = GND), θJA = 35–40°C/W. The exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| FBX (1) | Positive/negative feedback input | Accepts either 1.204V-referenced (boost/SEPIC) or 3mV-referenced (inverting) feedback network; single RFBX sets VOUT. |
| VC (2) | Error amplifier output | Connects to RC-C compensation network; controls loop stability and transient response of voltage regulation loop. |
| VIN (3) | Main input supply | 2.55V–40V input rail; requires local 0.22–1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| SW (4) | Switch collector node | Drives external inductor/diode; high di/dt node - minimize trace area to reduce EMI and parasitic inductance. |
| SHDN (5) | Enable/shutdown control | High-gain input accepts slow-ramping signals; 1.21V–1.40V threshold with 40mV hysteresis enables programmable UVLO. |
| RT (6) | Oscillator timing input | Resistor-to-ground sets free-running frequency (e.g., 56.2kΩ → 1.5MHz); floating disables oscillator. |
| SS (7) | Soft-start capacitor node | Charged by internal 280kΩ current source to ~2.1V; external capacitor (100nF–1µF) controls ramp rate and inrush limiting. |
| SYNC (8) | External clock input | Accepts 0.4V–1.3V logic-low/high sync pulses; overrides internal oscillator when driven above 1.3V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple-topology support | Single IC replaces separate boost, SEPIC, and inverting controllers - reduces BOM count and design validation effort for multi-rail bias supplies. |
| 65V integrated NPN switch | Eliminates need for external high-voltage switch in 24V/48V input applications - simplifies layout and improves reliability over discrete solutions. |
| Adjustable UVLO via SHDN | Enables system-level brownout protection without additional supervisor IC - resistor divider directly programs turn-on/off thresholds. |
| Frequency foldback during start-up | Reduces minimum duty cycle by lowering fOSC to 1/6 nominal - improves controllability of peak switch current during soft-start. |
| Synchronization capability | Allows alignment of switching edges with system clocks or other converters - critical for noise-sensitive RF or imaging subsystems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DC/DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3873EMS8E#TRPBF | Current-mode synchronous buck controller (no integrated switch); requires external MOSFETs; supports up to 60V input. | Not suitable for boost/SEPIC/inverting topologies; limited to step-down only; higher external component count. | Select only if step-down-only operation and >0.5A output current are required with external FET flexibility. |
| LT3580EMS8E#TRPBF | Pin-compatible 65V, 0.5A boost/SEPIC/inverting converter; identical pinout and FBX architecture; same MS8E package. | Shares identical topology support and UVLO/soft-start features but lacks SYNC capability and has fixed 1.2MHz fOSC. | Choose LT3580EMS8E#TRPBF only if synchronization is unnecessary and fixed-frequency operation is acceptable. |
Compared with LT3580EMS8E#TRPBF, LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF adds external clock synchronization and adjustable frequency range (200kHz–1.5MHz), enabling tighter EMI control and flexible power supply coordination; versus LTC3873EMS8E#TRPBF, it integrates the power switch and supports non-buck topologies, reducing solution size and design complexity for bias supply generation.

FAQ
What topology configurations does the LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF support?
The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF supports three distinct DC/DC configurations: boost (step-up), SEPIC (input can be above, below, or equal to output), and dual-inductor inverting (negative output). This is enabled by its dual-reference FBX pin (1.204V for noninverting, 3mV for inverting) and internal current-mode control architecture. No external component changes beyond feedback resistor and inductor/diode placement are needed to switch between topologies. The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF datasheet provides complete schematic examples for each mode.
What is the maximum achievable output current using the LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF in boost configuration?
The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF delivers up to approximately 125mA at 12V output from a 5V input (as shown in Typical Application TA01b), constrained by its 0.5A switch current limit, duty cycle limits (max 85% at 200kHz), and thermal dissipation in the MS8E package. Output current scales inversely with VOUT/VIN ratio and decreases at higher frequencies due to reduced on-time. For sustained 150mA+ loads, thermal evaluation with copper pour and airflow is recommended. The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF is optimized for bias supply rather than high-current power rails.
How is undervoltage lockout (UVLO) programmed on the LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF?
UVLO is programmed using a resistor divider from VIN to GND, with the midpoint connected to the SHDN pin. The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF activates when SHDN rises above 1.40V and shuts down when SHDN falls below 1.21V (40mV hysteresis). For example, to set turn-on at 8V, use R1 = 499kΩ (VIN to SHDN) and R2 = 100kΩ (SHDN to GND), yielding 1.34V at SHDN at 8V input. This eliminates need for external supervisors. The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF's high-gain SHDN pin tolerates slow-ramping inputs common in battery-powered systems.
Can the LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF synchronize to an external clock, and what are the signal requirements?
Yes, the LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF synchronizes via its SYNC pin (Pin 8). The external clock must have a logic-high level ≥1.3V and logic-low level ≤0.4V, with duty cycle between 35% and 65%. The recommended minimum SYNC frequency is 75% of the internal oscillator frequency (e.g., ≥1.125MHz for 1.5MHz fOSC). Driving SYNC below 0.4V reverts to free-running mode. This capability allows noise-sensitive systems like GPS receivers to avoid harmonic interference - a key advantage of the LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF over fixed-frequency alternatives.
What package and thermal characteristics apply to the LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF?
The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF uses the 8-lead plastic MSOP (MS8E) package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 9 = GND). Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) is 35–40°C/W depending on PCB copper area and airflow. The exposed pad must be soldered to a solid GND plane for optimal thermal and electrical performance. Unlike DFN variants, the MS8E package offers easier manual assembly and rework. Derating is required above 125°C ambient; full specifications are guaranteed from –40°C to 125°C junction temperature. The LT8570EMS8E#TRPBF's thermal design enables reliable operation in enclosed display enclosures without forced cooling.
