Product details
Overview
LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a 42V, 3A synchronous step-down regulator with 2.5µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, peak current mode control, internal compensation, and 16-lead MSOP package rated for –40°C to 150°C junction temperature. It delivers regulated 5V output (fixed), supports spread-spectrum EMI reduction, and targets automotive power systems requiring low-noise, high-efficiency DC/DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF datasheet, LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF pinout, LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF application, or LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified pin functions, thermal performance data, fixed-output regulation accuracy, SYNC-controlled EMI mitigation, and validated automotive-grade alternatives for AEC-Q100-compliant designs.
Technical Context
The LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF implements peak current mode control with internal 0.782V reference and fixed 5V output via integrated feedback divider (8.95MΩ). Its oscillator frequency is set by external RT resistor (18.2kΩ typical for 2MHz) and supports synchronization or spread-spectrum modulation via SYNC pin to reduce EMI emissions.
It features fast 45ns minimum on-time, 90ns minimum off-time, and thermal shutdown protection. The device operates in pulse-skipping mode when SYNC is floating, and enters Burst Mode only when SYNC is grounded - enabling <2.5µA IQ at light loads while maintaining <10mVP-P ripple.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.00V ±7.5% (guaranteed over –40°C to 150°C) |
| Max Continuous Output Current | 3A - supports automotive infotainment, ADAS sensors, and body control modules without external current boosting |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.0V to 42V - accommodates cold-crank (4.5V) and load-dump (40V) transients in 12V/24V automotive systems |
| Quiescent Current (Burst Mode) | 2.5µA at 12VIN→5VOUT no-load - enables always-on subsystems with multi-year battery life |
| Switching Frequency | 2.00MHz (typical, RT = 18.2kΩ) - allows use of compact 2.2µH inductors and reduces EMI fundamental frequency |
| Feedback Reference Accuracy | 0.778V to 0.786V (J-grade, –40°C to 150°C) - ensures stable regulation across full automotive temperature range |
| PG Threshold Tolerance | ±7.5% on VOUT - provides precise power-good assertion for microcontroller reset sequencing |
Pinout & Package
LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF uses a 16-lead plastic MSOP package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 17 = GND), θJA = 40°C/W, θJC(PAD) = 10°C/W. Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BST | Bootstrap supply for high-side NMOS gate drive | Requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to SW; enables efficient 42V operation with low RDS(on) |
| SW | Switch node | Connects to inductor and BST capacitor; critical for EMI layout - must minimize loop area |
| INTVCC | Internal 3.5V regulator bypass | Decoupled with ≥1µF low-ESR ceramic; powers internal logic and drivers - not for external loading |
| RT | Oscillator frequency programming | Resistor to GND sets fSW (200kHz–2.2MHz); 18.2kΩ yields 2MHz for compact magnetics |
| SYNC | External clock sync / spread-spectrum enable | Ground = Burst Mode; float = pulse-skipping; 3.2–5V = spread-spectrum - no connection on LT8609B |
| EN/UV | Enable and input undervoltage lockout | 1.05V rising threshold with 50mV hysteresis - programmable UVLO using resistor divider from VIN |
| VIN | Main input power supply | Bypassed locally with low-ESR capacitor; feeds internal circuitry and top switch - requires tight layout to GND |
| PG | Power-good open-drain flag | Pulled low until VOUT within ±7.5%; valid above 3.2V VIN - used for MCU reset or system sequencing |
| TR/SS | Soft-start and tracking control | 2µA internal pull-up; capacitor sets ramp rate; enables voltage tracking during startup or sequencing |
| VOUT | Fixed 5V regulated output | Internally connected to 8.95MΩ feedback divider - no external resistors required for 5V operation |
| GND | Power and signal ground | Exposed pad (Pin 17) must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal dissipation and noise control |

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating junction temperature range for LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF?
The LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 150°C junction temperature range per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification. This enables deployment in under-hood locations such as engine control units and transmission control modules where ambient temperatures exceed 125°C. Thermal derating applies above 125°C to ensure lifetime reliability.
Does LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF require external feedback resistors for 5V output?
No. The LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF integrates an 8.95MΩ internal feedback divider that sets the output to precisely 5.00V. No external resistors are needed - simplifying layout, improving long-term stability, and eliminating resistor tolerance errors. The VOUT pin is the regulated output terminal.
How does the SYNC pin function on LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF?
On the LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF, the SYNC pin supports three modes: grounded for Burst Mode (2.5µA IQ), floated for pulse-skipping, or biased to 3.2–5.0V for spread-spectrum modulation. Unlike the LT8609B, it retains full SYNC functionality - enabling EMI optimization without sacrificing light-load efficiency.
What is the power-good (PG) accuracy specification for LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF?
The LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF asserts PG high when VOUT reaches within ±7.5% of 5.00V and remains high until VOUT falls outside that window or a fault occurs. This tight window ensures reliable microcontroller reset sequencing and meets ASIL-B functional safety timing requirements in automotive applications.
Can LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF operate down to 3.0V input voltage?
Yes. The LT8609AJMSE16#TRPBF supports a minimum input voltage of 3.0V, enabling operation during automotive cold-crank events (down to ~4.5V battery) when combined with appropriate input capacitance. Its 45ns minimum on-time sustains regulation even at high duty cycles required for low-VIN conditions.
