Product details
Overview
LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF from Analog Devices is a 42V, 3A synchronous step-down regulator with fixed 3.3V output, 2.5µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, 45ns minimum on-time, and AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications. It operates from 3.0V to 42V input, delivers ±7.5% power-good accuracy, and uses peak current mode control with internal compensation in a 10-lead 3mm × 3mm side-wettable DFN package.
For engineers reviewing the LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF datasheet, LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF pinout, LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF application, or LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include ultralow IQ regulation at 12VIN→3.3VOUT, EMI-sensitive automotive power rails, thermal performance up to 150°C junction, and fixed-output simplicity versus adjustable FB topology.
Technical Context
The LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF implements peak current mode control with internal compensation, enabling fast transient response and stable operation with small inductors. Its oscillator frequency is set via external RT resistor (155kHz–2.075MHz range) and supports synchronization or spread-spectrum modulation for EMI reduction.
Burst Mode operation maintains <10mVP-P output ripple while regulating at ultralow load currents, and the EN/UV pin provides accurate 1.05V rising threshold with 50mV hysteresis for programmable input UVLO or shutdown. The PG pin signals VOUT within ±7.5% of 3.3V and fault conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1.5% over temperature and line (±7.5% PG threshold) |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.0V to 42V - supports wide automotive battery transients including cold-crank |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5µA typical at 12VIN→3.3VOUT in Burst Mode - enables always-on systems |
| Continuous Output Current | 3A - sufficient for microcontroller, sensor, and CAN transceiver power rails |
| Minimum On-Time | 45ns - enables high step-down ratios (e.g., 42V→3.3V) at 2MHz switching |
| Thermal Rating | Junction temperature range –40°C to +150°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 |
| Switching Frequency | Adjustable 200kHz to 2.2MHz via RT pin - allows optimization of size vs. efficiency |
Pinout & Package
LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF is housed in a 10-lead 3mm × 3mm plastic side-wettable DFN package (DDM) with exposed GND pad (Pin 11) requiring PCB soldering for thermal and electrical integrity. θJA = 45°C/W, θJC = 10°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Main input supply | Supplies internal circuitry and top switch; requires local 1µF ceramic bypass |
| BST | Bootstrap supply | Drives high-side NMOS gate; requires 0.1µF capacitor to SW |
| SW | Power switch node | Connects to inductor and BST capacitor; must be minimized for EMI |
| INTVCC | Internal 3.5V regulator output | Bypass with ≥1µF low-ESR ceramic; not for external loading |
| RT | Oscillator frequency set | Resistor to GND sets fSW from 200kHz to 2.2MHz |
| SYNC | External clock interface | Enables sync, spread-spectrum, or pulse-skipping modes; floating = default pulse-skip |
| EN/UV | Enable & input UVLO | 1.05V rising threshold; resistor divider programs VIN UVLO point |
| PG | Power-good flag | Open-drain; asserts high when VOUT is within ±7.5% of 3.3V and no faults |
| TR/SS | Soft-start & tracking | Capacitor here controls VOUT ramp rate; 3.3V output tracks TR/SS × 4.2 |
| VOUT | Fixed 3.3V regulated output | Internal 5.9MΩ feedback divider; connects to output capacitor and load |
| GND | Power & signal ground | Exposed pad (Pin 11); must be soldered to PCB ground plane |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating junction temperature range for LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF?
The LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF is guaranteed over the full –40°C to +150°C junction temperature range per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification. This is confirmed in the Order Information table and Note 2 of the datasheet, distinguishing it from E/I-grade variants limited to 125°C.
Does LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF require an external feedback resistor network?
No. The LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF integrates a precision 5.9MΩ internal feedback divider to regulate its fixed 3.3V output. The VOUT pin connects directly to the output capacitor and load - no external resistors are needed, simplifying layout and improving accuracy versus adjustable FB configurations.
How does the PG pin behave on LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF during startup and fault conditions?
On the LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF, the PG pin remains low until VOUT reaches within ±7.5% of 3.3V and stays high thereafter unless a fault (overcurrent, thermal shutdown, or VIN dropout) occurs. PG is valid when VIN > 3.2V, independent of EN/UV state - enabling reliable power sequencing in automotive systems.
Can LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF synchronize to an external clock, and what are the voltage requirements?
Yes. The SYNC pin on LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF accepts external clocks from 200kHz to 2.2MHz. For synchronization, apply a logic-high signal between 2.7V and 3.2V (with INTVCC = 3.5V). Tying SYNC to 3.3V–5.0V enables spread-spectrum modulation, while floating selects pulse-skipping mode.
What is the minimum input voltage required for LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF to maintain regulation?
The LT8609AJDDM-3.3#PBF maintains regulation down to a minimum input voltage of 3.0V (typical), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. Below this, dropout behavior begins - but the device remains functional with reduced headroom, supporting cold-crank scenarios where battery voltage dips transiently to ~3.2V.
