Product details
Overview
LT8601JUJ#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a triple-channel monolithic synchronous step-down regulator with programmable power-on reset, supporting 3.0V–42V HV inputs (OUT1: 1.5A @ 5V; OUT2: 2.5A @ 3.3V) and 2.6V–5.5V LV input (OUT3: 1.8A @ 1.8V), operating up to 2.2MHz and delivering 93% peak efficiency in automotive power systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT8601JUJ#TRPBF datasheet, LT8601JUJ#TRPBF pinout, LT8601JUJ#TRPBF application, or LT8601JUJ#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified thermal grade (–40°C to 150°C), AEC-Q100 qualification, 2-phase clocking for reduced input ripple, Burst Mode® quiescent current of 30µA, and confirmed 40-lead 6mm × 6mm QFN package with exposed GND pad.
Technical Context
The LT8601JUJ#TRPBF integrates three independent synchronous buck regulators: two high-voltage channels (PVIN1/PVIN2, 3.0V–42V, 1.5A/2.5A) and one low-voltage channel (PVIN3, 2.6V–5.5V, 1.8A), all synchronized to a single adjustable oscillator (250kHz–2.2MHz). Channel 1 uses CLK1; channels 2 and 3 share CLK2 (180° out-of-phase) to halve input ripple frequency and reduce required input capacitance.
Each channel employs current-mode control with cycle-by-cycle current limiting, programmable soft-start (1ms for OUT3), and dedicated power-good comparators (PG1–PG3) with ±8% thresholds. The J-grade variant guarantees full operation from –40°C to 150°C junction temperature and includes AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range (HV) | 3.0V to 42V - supports automotive transients up to 42V without external protection |
| Input Voltage Range (LV) | 2.6V to 5.5V - enables direct sourcing from HV outputs (e.g., 3.3V or 5V rails) |
| Output Currents | OUT1: 1.5A; OUT2: 2.5A; OUT3: 1.8A - sufficient for core logic, I/O, and memory rails in ADAS ECUs |
| Switching Frequency | 250kHz to 2.2MHz - RT-programmable; 2MHz operation enables <10µH inductors and compact 1210 ceramic caps |
| Quiescent Current | 30µA (all channels active, no load) - enables always-on subsystems with minimal battery drain |
| Efficiency (Peak) | 93% (HV), 95% (LV) - reduces thermal load in sealed enclosures and extends operating life at 150°C |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to 150°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1; validated for under-hood automotive environments |
Pinout & Package
LT8601JUJ#TRPBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 40-lead 6mm × 6mm plastic QFN package with exposed GND pad (Pin 41), requiring soldering to PCB ground for θJC = 2°C/W thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PG1, PG2, PG3 | Open-drain Power Good indicators | Assert low until FBx reaches 92–108% of reference (1V for HV, 800mV for LV); enable sequencing validation |
| SW1, SW2, SW3 | Switch node outputs | Connect to external inductors; SW2 pins 6 & 7 must be shorted; layout critical for EMI control |
| PVIN1, PVIN2, PVIN3 | Independent input supplies | Enable flexible power tree design - e.g., PVIN1/PVIN2 from battery, PVIN3 from 5V rail |
| TRKSS1, TRKSS2 | Track/Soft-Start inputs | Program output ramp rate or track another supply; internal 2.4µA pull-up enables simple RC soft-start |
| CPOR, RST, POREN | Power-On Reset timing interface | CPOR capacitor sets POR delay (31–39.4ms typ); RST is open-drain CMOS output; POREN enables POR start |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 2-Phase clock architecture | Reduces combined input ripple current by >50% vs. interleaved dual-phase, cutting required bulk capacitance by ~30% |
| Burst Mode® operation | Maintains <15mVpp output ripple at light load while achieving 30µA IQ - critical for always-on telematics modules |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive under-hood operation including HTOL, TC, and ESD testing - eliminates requalification effort |
| Independent UVLO on PVIN3 | 2.35V threshold prevents LV channel startup unless HV rail is stable - enforces safe power sequencing |
| Programmable switching frequency | RT resistor selection enables precise EMI band placement (e.g., avoid AM radio band) without changing magnetics |
Applications
| Automotive ADAS ECU | Industrial PLC I/O Module |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8602JUJ#TRPBF | Same pinout, identical 40-lead QFN; adds spread-spectrum modulation and improved light-load efficiency (25µA IQ) | Required where CISPR25 Class 5 radiated emissions must be met without external filters | Select LT8602JUJ#TRPBF if EMI compliance is primary concern; otherwise LT8601JUJ#TRPBF offers cost advantage with same thermal rating |
| TPS6521905RHBR | Different package (32-pin VQFN), lower HV input (20V), no AEC-Q100 qualification, fixed 1.8V/3.3V/5V outputs | Suitable for industrial IoT gateways but not automotive due to temp range (–40°C to 125°C) and lack of transient robustness | Choose TPS6521905RHBR only for non-automotive, space-constrained designs needing fixed outputs and lower BOM count |
Compared with LT8602JUJ#TRPBF and TPS6521905RHBR, the LT8601JUJ#TRPBF uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, 42V transient tolerance, fully programmable outputs, and 150°C operation - making it the sole option for high-reliability automotive power domains requiring extended temperature margin and design flexibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage transient for LT8601JUJ#TRPBF?
The LT8601JUJ#TRPBF supports input transients up to 42V on PVIN1 and PVIN2 pins per Absolute Maximum Ratings. This is validated for automotive load-dump conditions. Sustained operation above 42V risks permanent damage. For reliable 12V automotive systems, the device tolerates ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a (35V/200ms) and Pulse 5b (42V/100ms) without external clamping.
Does LT8601JUJ#TRPBF support independent enable control for each output channel?
No - LT8601JUJ#TRPBF does not provide individual EN pins per channel. Enable is controlled globally via EN/UVLO (Pin 22). However, channel-specific sequencing is achieved using TRKSS1/TRKSS2 (for OUT1/OUT2 tracking) and RUN3 (Pin 18, enables only OUT3), allowing staggered startup and fault-isolated shutdown.
What is the purpose of the exposed pad (Pin 41) on the LT8601JUJ#TRPBF QFN package?
The exposed pad (Pin 41) is electrically and thermally connected to GND. It must be soldered to a solid PCB ground plane to achieve θJC = 2°C/W and ensure safe operation at 150°C junction temperature. Omitting thermal vias or insufficient copper area will cause thermal shutdown or accelerated lifetime degradation.
Can LT8601JUJ#TRPBF operate in pulse-skipping mode, and how is it configured?
Yes - LT8601JUJ#TRPBF supports pulse-skipping mode. Tie SYNC (Pin 33) to INTVCC (Pin 28) to enable it. In this mode, the regulator skips switch cycles at light load to improve efficiency versus Burst Mode®, though with higher output ripple. Pulse-skipping is preferred when low-noise operation is less critical than efficiency.
How is the power-on reset timeout period set for LT8601JUJ#TRPBF?
The POR timeout is set by connecting a capacitor from CPOR (Pin 31) to GND. With a 1000pF capacitor, the typical delay is 35.2ms (range: 31–39.4ms). The internal 2µA pull-up current charges CPOR; RST (Pin 32) remains low until the capacitor voltage crosses the POR threshold, then goes high-Z (weak pull-up to ~2V).
