Product details
Overview
LT8580EMS8E#PBF from Analog Devices is a PWM DC/DC converter IC with an integrated 1A, 65V NPN power switch, configurable as boost, SEPIC, or inverting topology. It operates from 2.55V to 40V input, delivers up to 1.2A switch current, supports 200kHz–1.5MHz switching frequency (adjustable via RT pin or external SYNC), and features soft-start, frequency foldback, and programmable UVLO - used in TFT-LCD bias supplies and GPS receivers.
For engineers reviewing the LT8580EMS8E#PBF datasheet, LT8580EMS8E#PBF pinout, LT8580EMS8E#PBF application, or LT8580EMS8E#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 8-lead MSOP package, ±3mV negative FBX reference for inverting configurations, 400mV VCE(SAT) at 0.75A, SHDN pin hysteresis of 40mV, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
The LT8580EMS8E#PBF employs constant-frequency current-mode control with internal slope compensation to prevent subharmonic oscillation above 50% duty cycle. Its dual-amplifier FBX architecture enables seamless reconfiguration between noninverting (1.204V reference) and inverting (±3mV reference) feedback modes by changing external resistor connections.
It integrates a precision SHDN comparator with 40mV hysteresis and user-programmable UVLO via external resistor divider, plus a 280kΩ internal SS charging current source that ramps the SS pin to ~2.1V for controlled start-up. Frequency foldback reduces fSW to 1/6 nominal when FBX voltage falls within 300–920mV during soft-start or fault conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.55V to 40V - supports wide industrial and automotive battery-fed inputs including 12V and 24V rails. |
| Switch Rating | 1A continuous, 65V collector-emitter - enables high-voltage boost and SEPIC designs without external switch. |
| VCE(SAT) | 400mV at 0.75A - minimizes conduction loss and thermal stress in high-current operation. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 1.5MHz - adjustable via RT resistor or external SYNC clock for EMI optimization and size reduction. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.204V (noninverting) or ±3mV (inverting) - enables precise output regulation in both polarity configurations. |
| Soft-Start Current | 6µA typical - sets ramp rate of SS pin voltage for controlled inrush current limiting. |
| SHDN Threshold Hysteresis | 40mV - prevents chatter during slow-rising enable signals and improves noise immunity. |
Pinout & Package
LT8580EMS8E#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic MSOP package (MS8E) with exposed pad (Pin 9 = GND), θJA = 35–40°C/W, and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish. The exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| FBX (Pin 1) | Positive/Negative Feedback Input | Accepts either 1.204V reference (boost/SEPIC) or ±3mV reference (inverting); sets output voltage via single resistor RFBX. |
| VC (Pin 2) | Error Amplifier Output | Connects to external RC compensation network; controls peak switch current to maintain regulation. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main Power Input | Supplies internal circuitry and switch driver; requires local 2.2µF ceramic bypass capacitor. |
| SW (Pin 4) | Switch Collector Node | High-slew-rate NPN collector output; must minimize trace area to reduce EMI and parasitic inductance. |
| SHDN (Pin 5) | Enable/Shutdown Control | Active-high logic with 1.21–1.40V threshold range and 40mV hysteresis; supports slow-ramping control signals. |
| RT (Pin 6) | Oscillator Timing Input | Resistor-to-ground sets free-running frequency; 56.2kΩ yields 1.5MHz, 422kΩ yields 200kHz. |
| SS (Pin 7) | Soft-Start Capacitor Node | Charged by 6µA current to ~2.1V; external capacitor (100nF–1µF) controls output voltage ramp time. |
| SYNC (Pin 8) | External Clock Input | Accepts 0.4–1.3V logic-low/high; synchronizes switching to external clock or reverts to internal oscillator when pulled low. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple-Topology Flexibility | Single IC supports boost, SEPIC, and inverting configurations via external component re-routing - eliminates need for multiple part numbers. |
| Programmable UVLO | SHDN pin accepts resistor divider from VIN to set custom undervoltage lockout threshold - enables system-level brown-out protection. |
| Frequency Foldback | Automatically reduces switching frequency to 1/6 nominal when FBX voltage is 300–920mV - improves controllability during start-up or overload. |
| Thermally Enhanced MSOP | 8-lead MSOP with exposed GND pad achieves θJA ≤ 40°C/W - sustains 1A switching current without external heatsink in compact layouts. |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature with automotive-grade process controls - suitable for infotainment and ADAS power rails. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DC/DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3780EMS#PBF | Requires external MOSFETs; supports higher output current (>5A) but lacks integrated switch and inverting capability. | Suitable for high-power boost/SEPIC where efficiency >95% is critical; not drop-in for LT8580EMS8E#PBF's 1A integrated-switch use cases. | Select LTC3780EMS#PBF only when board space allows discrete FET layout and load exceeds 1.2A. |
| LT3580EMS8E#PBF | Pin-compatible predecessor with identical pinout, same 1A/65V switch, but fixed 1.2MHz frequency and no SYNC input. | Valid for legacy designs requiring no frequency synchronization or foldback; lacks SHDN hysteresis and updated UVLO flexibility. | LT3580EMS8E#PBF is a direct functional subset - choose only if design does not require programmable fSW or enhanced SHDN behavior. |
Compared with LTC3780EMS#PBF and LT3580EMS8E#PBF, the LT8580EMS8E#PBF uniquely combines integrated 1A/65V switching, triple-topology support, SYNC capability, and programmable UVLO in an MSOP-8 package - making it optimal for space-constrained, multi-rail, and automotive-qualified applications where discrete solutions add cost and complexity.

FAQ
What topologies does the LT8580EMS8E#PBF support?
The LT8580EMS8E#PBF supports three distinct DC/DC topologies: boost, SEPIC, and inverting - selectable solely by external component configuration. Its dual-reference FBX pin (1.204V for noninverting, ±3mV for inverting) and single feedback resistor simplify design across all modes. No internal register programming or external mode pins are required, and the LT8580EMS8E#PBF maintains full 1A/65V switch capability in each configuration.
How is the switching frequency set on the LT8580EMS8E#PBF?
The LT8580EMS8E#PBF switching frequency is set either by connecting a resistor from the RT pin to ground (free-running mode) or by applying an external clock to the SYNC pin (synchronized mode). In free-running mode, 56.2kΩ yields 1.5MHz and 422kΩ yields 200kHz. In synchronized mode, the LT8580EMS8E#PBF locks to external clocks between 200kHz and 1.5MHz with 35–65% duty cycle tolerance. The LT8580EMS8E#PBF automatically reverts to internal oscillator if SYNC falls below 0.4V.
What is the purpose of the SHDN pin hysteresis in the LT8580EMS8E#PBF?
The SHDN pin of the LT8580EMS8E#PBF features 40mV hysteresis between turn-on (1.21–1.40V rising) and turn-off (1.21–1.40V falling) thresholds to prevent oscillation during slowly varying or noisy enable signals. This allows direct connection to microcontroller GPIOs or resistive dividers without added Schmitt-trigger circuitry. The LT8580EMS8E#PBF also restarts soft-start upon each valid SHDN assertion, ensuring repeatable inrush control - critical for systems with marginal input capacitance.
Can the LT8580EMS8E#PBF be used in automotive applications?
Yes, the LT8580EMS8E#PBF is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications (Grade I, –40°C to +125°C) and manufactured under controlled automotive processes. It includes overtemperature protection (trip at ~165°C), robust UVLO with programmable hysteresis, and high-reliability packaging. The LT8580EMS8E#PBF is specified for use in infotainment displays, telematics power rails, and ADAS sensor bias supplies - and appears in Analog Devices' official automotive reliability reports.
What is the minimum recommended inductor value for LT8580EMS8E#PBF in boost mode?
For boost operation, the LT8580EMS8E#PBF requires inductors sized to avoid subharmonic oscillation and ensure adequate load current. At 1.5MHz and 50% duty cycle, minimum inductance is ~1.2µH (calculated per LMIN = VIN / [1.25 × (DC − 300ns × f) × f × (2DC − 1)/(1 − DC)]). Typical designs use 15µH (as in the 5V→12V reference circuit) to balance ripple, efficiency, and transient response. The LT8580EMS8E#PBF datasheet recommends ferrite-based shielded inductors like Coilcraft XAL5050 or Würth WE-PD series.
