Product details
Overview
LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a 42V input, 3.5A synchronous step-down regulator with fixed 3.3V output, 2.5µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, 30ns minimum on-time, and ultralow ripple (<10mVP-P) - designed for automotive infotainment power rails requiring high efficiency at light loads.
For engineers reviewing the LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF datasheet, LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF pinout, LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF application, or LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, 3.4–42V input range, 3.3V ±1% output accuracy over temperature, and MSOP-16 package with exposed thermal pad.
Technical Context
The LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control with adjustable switching frequency (200kHz–2.2MHz via RT resistor), internal 0.97V reference, and integrated top/bottom NMOS power switches (120mΩ/65mΩ typical RDS(on)). It features frequency foldback during startup and overload, and supports pulse-skipping or external synchronization via SYNC pin.
Burst Mode operation enables regulation at 2.5µA IQ with <10mVP-P output ripple; EN/UV pin provides accurate 1.0V threshold undervoltage lockout; PG flag signals ±9% VOUT regulation status and fault conditions; TR/SS pin enables soft-start and tracking with 2.2µA internal pull-up.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.4V to 42V - supports wide automotive battery transients including cold-crank (4.5V) and load-dump (40V). |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1% over –40°C to +125°C - eliminates external feedback resistors and reduces BOM count. |
| Max Output Current | 3.5A continuous - sufficient for powering SoCs, FPGAs, and multi-rail PMICs in compact automotive modules. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5µA in Burst Mode at no load - enables always-on systems (e.g., telematics, ADAS sensors) with minimal battery drain. |
| Min On-Time | 30ns - enables high step-down ratios (e.g., 42V→3.3V) at 2MHz without pulse skipping, preserving EMI performance. |
| Output Ripple | <10mVP-P - meets stringent noise requirements for RF-sensitive analog circuits and high-speed digital interfaces. |
| Thermal Rating | –40°C to +125°C junction - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and dashboard applications. |
Pinout & Package
LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF uses a thermally enhanced 16-lead MSOP package with exposed GND pad (Pin 17), θJA = 40°C/W. The exposed pad must be soldered to PCB for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SYNC (1) | External clock sync input | Ground for low-ripple Burst Mode; tie to logic high or external clock for pulse-skipping/sync mode. |
| TR/SS (2) | Soft-start & tracking control | Capacitor-programmed voltage ramp rate; internal 2.2µA pull-up enables simple soft-start timing. |
| RT (3) | Frequency programming | Resistor-to-GND sets switching frequency from 200kHz to 2.2MHz - enables EMI optimization. |
| EN/UV (4) | Enable & input UVLO | 1.0V rising threshold with 40mV hysteresis - allows precise VIN brownout detection or system-level enable control. |
| VIN (5,6) | Main input power | High-current path for IC bias and top switch - requires local 1µF ceramic bypass close to pins. |
| NC (7) | No connect | Not internally bonded - leave unconnected or ground for mechanical stability. |
| GND (8) | Power & signal ground | Return path for bottom switch and control circuitry - must be tied to exposed pad (Pin 17). |
| SW (9,10,11) | Switch node | Drives external inductor and BST capacitor - keep trace short and low-inductance for EMI reduction. |
| BST (12) | Bootstrap supply | Requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to SW - enables high-side NMOS gate drive above VIN. |
| INTVCC (13) | Internal 3.4V regulator output | Bypass with ≥1µF ceramic; supplies internal logic - draws from BIAS if >3.1V, else from VIN. |
| BIAS (14) | Efficiency-boosting bias supply | Tie to VOUT (3.3V) to reduce VIN current draw and improve light-load efficiency. |
| PG (15) | Power good flag | Open-drain output active when VOUT is within ±9% of 3.3V - used for system sequencing and fault reporting. |
| VOUT (16) | Regulated 3.3V output | Fixed-output version with internal 14.3MΩ feedback divider - no external resistors required. |
| GND (17) | Exposed thermal pad | Mandatory solder connection to PCB ground plane - critical for thermal dissipation and EMI performance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8610ABEMSE-3.3#TRPBF | Higher light-load efficiency (91% vs 82% at 1mA), but increased output ripple in Burst Mode due to 1A burst current limit. | Better suited for ultra-low-power always-on nodes where ripple can be filtered; less ideal for noise-sensitive analog circuits. | Select LT8610ABEMSE-3.3#TRPBF only if >5% efficiency gain at sub-10mA loads justifies added output capacitance for ripple suppression. |
| TPS54332DR | Lower max current (3A), higher IQ (19µA), no AEC-Q100 rating, and larger 8-pin SOIC package. | Targeted at industrial/commercial designs with relaxed thermal and automotive qualification requirements. | Choose TPS54332DR only for cost-sensitive non-automotive applications where 3.5A capability and AEC-Q100 are not required. |
Compared with LT8610ABEMSE-3.3#TRPBF, the LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF delivers lower output ripple and tighter regulation at light loads, making it preferable for analog-intensive systems; versus TPS54332DR, it offers superior automotive qualification, higher current, and significantly lower quiescent current - critical for battery-backed systems.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF?
The LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF is specified for operation from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and is qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1. Its MSOP-16 package with exposed thermal pad ensures reliable thermal performance in automotive under-hood and dashboard applications where ambient temperatures reach 105°C.
Does LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF require external feedback resistors?
No, the LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF integrates an internal 14.3MΩ feedback resistor divider that fixes the output to 3.3V ±1%. This eliminates external resistors, reduces BOM count, improves accuracy over temperature, and minimizes board space - unlike adjustable versions such as LT8610AEMSE#TRPBF which require external FB network.
How does the BIAS pin improve efficiency in LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF?
The BIAS pin on LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF allows the internal 3.4V regulator to draw current from VOUT (3.3V) instead of VIN, reducing input supply current by ~30% at light loads. For optimal efficiency, tie BIAS directly to VOUT - this configuration is validated and recommended in the datasheet for fixed 3.3V applications.
What is the purpose of the TR/SS pin on LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF?
The TR/SS pin on LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF serves dual functions: soft-start control and output voltage tracking. A capacitor from TR/SS to GND sets the output voltage ramp rate during startup; it also enables tracking of another supply rail when driven externally. Internal 2.2µA pull-up current simplifies implementation with a single capacitor.
Can LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF synchronize to an external clock?
Yes, the LT8610AEMSE-3.3#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC pin (Pin 1). When driven with a logic-level square wave between 200kHz and 2.2MHz, the device aligns its switching edges to the external clock, enabling deterministic EMI reduction and multi-phase interleaving in complex power systems.
