Product details
Overview
LT8608IDC#TRMPBF from Analog Devices is a 42V, 1.5A synchronous step-down regulator in an 8-lead 2mm × 2mm DFN package, featuring 2.5µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, 35ns minimum on-time, and internal compensation for fast transient response. It delivers regulated 3.3V or 5V output in automotive infotainment power rails where ultra-low standby power and compact layout are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LT8608IDC#TRMPBF datasheet, LT8608IDC#TRMPBF pinout, LT8608IDC#TRMPBF application, or LT8608IDC#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (3.0V–42V), guaranteed 1.5A continuous output, ±8.5% power-good accuracy, and fixed Burst Mode operation due to absence of SYNC/ TR/SS pins in the DFN variant.
Technical Context
The LT8608IDC#TRMPBF implements peak current mode control with internal compensation, enabling stable operation with small external inductors and fast load-step response. Its 35ns minimum on-time supports high VIN/VOUT ratios (e.g., 36V→3.3V) without pulse-skipping instability.
Burst Mode operation is hardwired-no SYNC or TR/SS pins-delivering <10mVP-P ripple at light loads while maintaining 2.5µA total input quiescent current. The FB reference is trimmed to 0.778V (±0.025V over temperature), and EN/UV has a precise 1.05V rising threshold with 50mV hysteresis for reliable undervoltage lockout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.0V to 42V - supports 12V/24V/36V automotive and industrial bus inputs without pre-regulation. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5µA at no load - enables >10-year battery life in always-on telematics modules. |
| Output Current | 1.5A continuous - sustains full load under worst-case thermal conditions (TJ ≤ 125°C). |
| Feedback Reference | 0.778V ±0.025V - ensures ±1.2% output accuracy with 1% resistors across –40°C to 125°C. |
| Min On-Time | 35ns - allows 36V→3.3V conversion at 2MHz without duty-cycle limitation or frequency foldback. |
| Power-Good Threshold | ±8.5% of VOUT - provides robust startup and fault detection with hysteresis for noise immunity. |
| Package | 8-lead 2mm × 2mm DFN - exposes thermal pad for low θJA (40°C/W typical) and PCB area <4mm². |
Pinout & Package
LT8608IDC#TRMPBF uses an 8-lead (2mm × 2mm) plastic DFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 9 = GND). The package omits SYNC and TR/SS pins-Burst Mode operation is factory-configured and non-adjustable.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BST | Bootstrap supply for high-side NMOS gate drive | Requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to SW; no series resistor allowed-critical for 100% duty-cycle capability. |
| SW | Switch node connecting internal top/bottom FETs to inductor | High di/dt node; must be minimized on PCB to reduce EMI and switching losses. |
| INTVCC | Internal 3.5V regulator output | Bypass with ≥1µF low-ESR ceramic; not for external loading-powers gate drivers and logic. |
| RT | Resistor-programmed oscillator frequency input | Connects to ground via resistor (e.g., 18.2kΩ sets 2MHz); determines minimum off-time and loop bandwidth. |
| EN/UV | Enable and input undervoltage lockout input | 1.05V rising threshold; 50mV hysteresis prevents chatter during brownout; ties to VIN if always-on. |
| VIN | Main input power supply | Must be locally bypassed with low-ESR capacitor; feeds internal circuitry and top switch. |
| PG | Open-drain power-good flag | Pulls low when VOUT deviates >±8.5% or fault occurs; valid above 3.2V VIN regardless of EN state. |
| FB | Feedback input for output voltage regulation | Regulated to 0.778V; connects to resistor divider-total resistance impacts light-load IQ. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow IQ Burst Mode | 2.5µA input current at no load preserves battery energy in always-on systems. |
| 35ns Minimum On-Time | Enables high step-down ratios (e.g., 36V→3.3V) at 2MHz without cycle skipping or instability. |
| Integrated Power Switches | Top/bottom NMOS with 350mΩ/230mΩ RDS(ON) deliver >92% efficiency at 0.5A (12VIN→5VOUT). |
| Robust PG Flag | ±8.5% accuracy with fault detection ensures safe sequencing in multi-rail power systems. |
| Internal Compensation | Eliminates external compensation components-reduces BOM count and design iteration time. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8609SIDD#TRMPBF | Same DFN-8 package, 2A output, 2.5µA IQ, but adds spread-spectrum EMI reduction and adjustable soft-start. | Preferred for noise-sensitive RF sections; requires additional 10nF SS capacitor. | Select when EMI compliance (CISPR 25 Class 5) is mandatory and 2A output headroom is needed. |
| TPS54340DDAR | 3.5A output, 4.5µA IQ, SO-8 package, no integrated bottom FET-external diode required for sync operation. | Higher output current but larger footprint and higher light-load IQ compromises battery life. | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial designs where 3.5A peak load justifies larger size and higher standby loss. |
Compared with LT8609SIDD#TRMPBF, LT8608IDC#TRMPBF offers lower cost and identical footprint but lacks spread-spectrum and soft-start adjustability; versus TPS54340DDAR, it delivers superior light-load efficiency and smaller solution size despite lower current rating.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for LT8608IDC#TRMPBF?
The LT8608IDC#TRMPBF is rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and is qualified to the Industrial temperature grade (I-temp). This specification is guaranteed across the full range, with thermal performance validated via characterization and statistical process controls-not just design simulation.
Does LT8608IDC#TRMPBF support external frequency synchronization?
No. The LT8608IDC#TRMPBF is the DFN-package variant with no SYNC pin; it operates exclusively in fixed Burst Mode. Synchronization is only available on MSOP-package versions (e.g., LT8608IMSE#TRPBF) which include the SYNC pin.
What is the feedback reference voltage tolerance of LT8608IDC#TRMPBF over temperature?
The LT8608IDC#TRMPBF has a feedback reference voltage of 0.778V with ±0.025V (±3.2%) tolerance over the full –40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature range, ensuring ±1.2% output accuracy when using 1% feedback resistors.
Can LT8608IDC#TRMPBF be used in 36V automotive cold-crank applications?
Yes. With 42V absolute maximum input rating, 35ns minimum on-time, and guaranteed operation down to 3.0V input, the LT8608IDC#TRMPBF maintains regulation during 36V cold-crank transients while delivering full 1.5A output without frequency foldback or dropout.
How does the absence of TR/SS and SYNC pins affect LT8608IDC#TRMPBF functionality?
The LT8608IDC#TRMPBF permanently configures Burst Mode operation and disables soft-start adjustment or output tracking. All timing and modulation features dependent on those pins-including external sync, spread spectrum, and programmable slew rate-are unavailable in this DFN variant.
