Product details
Overview
LT8613IUDE#PBF from Analog Devices is a 42V, 6A synchronous step-down regulator with integrated current sense amplifier, 3µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, 40ns minimum on-time, and ±9% power-good accuracy. It delivers regulated 5V/6A output in automotive and industrial power supplies where low-noise, high-efficiency operation across wide input (3.4V–42V) and light-load conditions is critical.
For engineers reviewing the LT8613IUDE#PBF datasheet, LT8613IUDE#PBF pinout, LT8613IUDE#PBF application, or LT8613IUDE#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed current-sense architecture, real-world efficiency curves at 3.3V/5V outputs, and authoritative alternative selection guidance for high-reliability DC/DC design.
Technical Context
The LT8613IUDE#PBF implements peak current-mode control with internal compensation, enabling fast transient response and stable loop behavior using small inductors. Its 200kHz–2.2MHz programmable switching frequency (via RT resistor) supports EMI-sensitive layouts while maintaining regulation down to 100µA load.
It integrates rail-to-rail ISP/ISN current sense inputs with 20× gain IMON monitor output and ICTRL-adjustable current limit (5mV–52mV range), allowing precise input/output current regulation or limiting. The device features ultralow 3µA IQ in Burst Mode, 1V EN/UV threshold with 40mV hysteresis, and PG flag signaling ±9% VOUT tolerance and fault conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.4V to 42V - supports 12V/24V/36V automotive and industrial rails with margin for transients. |
| Output Current | 6A continuous - enables single-chip 5V/6A or 3.3V/6A conversion without external MOSFETs. |
| Quiescent Current | 3µA at 12VIN→3.3VOUT - sustains >1000-hour battery runtime in always-on systems. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 2.2MHz (RT-programmable) - allows optimization of size vs. efficiency vs. EMI. |
| Current Sense Accuracy | ±5% ISP–ISN voltage monitoring - enables accurate overcurrent protection and telemetry. |
| Power-Good Threshold | ±9% of 0.97V FB reference - ensures reliable system enable/disable sequencing. |
| Min On-Time | 40ns - supports high VIN/VOUT ratios (e.g., 42V→3.3V) without pulse-skipping instability. |
Pinout & Package
LT8613IUDE#PBF uses a thermally enhanced 28-lead 3mm × 6mm QFN package with exposed GND pad (Pin 29), θJC(PAD) = 5°C/W. The package requires soldering the exposed pad to PCB ground plane for thermal integrity and EMI performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SYNC (1) | External clock synchronization input | Enables pulse-skipping mode or external frequency lock; disables frequency foldback when asserted. |
| TR/SS (2) | Soft-start and tracking control | Programs output ramp rate via capacitor; forces FB regulation to TR/SS voltage below 0.97V. |
| RT (3) | Switching frequency programming | Resistor to GND sets fSW from 200kHz to 2.2MHz; 60.4kΩ yields 700kHz typical. |
| EN/UV (4) | Enable and input undervoltage lockout | 1.0V rising threshold with 40mV hysteresis; shuts down IC drawing only 1µA when low. |
| VIN (5–7) | Main input power supply | Supplies internal circuitry and top switch; must be locally bypassed with low-ESR capacitors. |
| PGND (8–10) | Power switch ground return | Low-inductance return path for bottom FET; connects directly to input capacitor negative terminal. |
| GND (11–14) | Analog ground reference | Connects to PCB ground plane; ties exposed pad (Pin 29) for thermal and noise control. |
| SW (15–19) | Switch node | High-frequency switching output; connects to inductor and BST capacitor; minimize trace area. |
| BST (20) | Bootstrap supply | Drives top FET gate above VIN; requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to IC. |
| INTVCC (21) | Internal 3.4V regulator output | Bypass with ≥1µF ceramic; powers control logic; sourced from BIAS if VBIAS > 3.1V. |
| BIAS (22) | Efficiency-optimized bias supply | When tied to VOUT ≥3.3V, reduces VIN current draw and improves light-load efficiency. |
| PG (23) | Power-good open-drain flag | Pulls low when VOUT deviates >±9% from 0.97V or during fault; valid above 3.4V VIN. |
| FB (24) | Feedback reference input | Regulated to 0.970V ±0.006V; connects to resistor divider; add 4.7–10pF phase-lead cap. |
| ISP (25) | Current sense positive input | Rail-to-rail input; monitors high-side or low-side sense resistor voltage drop (VISP–ISN). |
| ISN (26) | Current sense negative input | Paired with ISP; differential input accepts common-mode up to 42V; ±20µA bias current. |
| IMON (27) | Proportional current monitor | Outputs 20×(VISP–ISN); 0–1.04V range; sources 200µA; used for analog current telemetry. |
| ICTRL (28) | Current limit adjustment | Sets ISP–ISN threshold from 5mV to 52mV; float or tie to INTVCC for default 50mV limit. |
| GND (29) | Exposed thermal pad | Mandatory GND connection; soldered to PCB copper for thermal dissipation and noise reduction. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8640SIV#PBF | Higher 8A output, 2.2MHz max fSW, lower 2.5µA IQ, but no IMON/ICTRL pins. | Lacks integrated current monitoring; requires external circuitry for current telemetry or adjustable limit. | Choose when higher current and smaller passive size are prioritized over current sense flexibility. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LT8613IUDE#PBF?
The LT8613IUDE#PBF is rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and is qualified for industrial and automotive applications. Its I-grade marking confirms full specification compliance across this range, including guaranteed performance for feedback reference voltage (0.958V–0.982V), EN/UV threshold (0.94V–1.06V), and current limit (7.5A–12.0A) under all conditions.
How does the LT8613IUDE#PBF achieve 3µA quiescent current?
The LT8613IUDE#PBF achieves 3µA IQ through patented Burst Mode® operation: during light loads, it delivers discrete energy packets to the output capacitor and enters deep sleep between bursts, powering down all non-essential circuitry. This is distinct from pulse-skipping mode (enabled via SYNC pin), which draws several hundred µA due to continuous oscillator operation.
Can the LT8613IUDE#PBF regulate output current as well as voltage?
Yes. The LT8613IUDE#PBF supports both voltage and current regulation via its dedicated ISP/ISN current sense inputs and ICTRL pin. By configuring ICTRL, the device adjusts its peak inductor current limit; combined with IMON monitoring, it enables closed-loop current control for CCCV charging or overcurrent protection without external components.
What is the purpose of the BIAS pin on the LT8613IUDE#PBF?
The BIAS pin on the LT8613IUDE#PBF allows sourcing internal regulator current from VOUT instead of VIN when VBIAS > 3.1V. For 3.3V or 5V outputs, tying BIAS to VOUT reduces VIN current draw and improves light-load efficiency by bypassing the internal charge pump, lowering total system power dissipation.
Does the LT8613IUDE#PBF require external compensation components?
No. The LT8613IUDE#PBF features fully internal compensation optimized for peak current-mode control. No external compensation network is needed-only standard input/output capacitors, inductor, feedback resistors, BST capacitor, and optional TR/SS soft-start capacitor are required for full operation.
