Product details
Overview
LT8630EFE#PBF from Analog Devices is a monolithic, current-mode synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator delivering up to 0.6A output current with input voltage range 3V to 100V, internal top/bottom MOSFETs (775mΩ/550mΩ), and boundary mode switching for high efficiency across wide load and input conditions - used in telecom power supplies, industrial distributed regulation, and automotive front-end converters.
For engineers reviewing the LT8630EFE#PBF datasheet, LT8630EFE#PBF pinout, LT8630EFE#PBF application, or LT8630EFE#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 100V absolute max VIN rating, ±7.5% power-good threshold, 16µA no-load quiescent current at 12VIN→5VOUT, and thermally enhanced 20-lead TSSOP package with exposed GND pad.
Technical Context
The LT8630EFE#PBF employs variable-frequency boundary mode control to minimize switching losses across 3V–100V input and 0.8V–60V output ranges, using peak current mode architecture with internal VC node clamping to regulate maximum switch current (1.8A typ). Its Burst Mode® operation enables 16µA IQ at light loads while maintaining <5mV output ripple.
It integrates programmable undervoltage lockout via EN/UV pin (1.19V threshold, 17mV hysteresis), soft-start/tracking via TR/SS pin (4.5µA sink current), and open-drain PG flag signaling ±7.5% VFBREF deviation with 1.9% hysteresis - all implemented within a single monolithic die with internal synchronous switches and thermal shutdown protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3V to 100V - supports direct connection to 48V/72V/100V telecom rails and automotive battery transients without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 0.6A guaranteed at VIN ≥ 10V, VOUT = 5V, L = 15µH - sufficient for powering FPGA I/O banks, microcontroller cores, or isolated gate drivers. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.808V ±12mV - sets precise output voltage via resistor divider; enables stable 3.3V, 5V, or 12V outputs with <±1% regulation error over line/load/temperature. |
| Quiescent Current | 16µA at 12VIN→5VOUT no load - enables >10-year battery life in always-on industrial sensors or remote telemetry nodes. |
| Switching Architecture | Boundary mode PWM - eliminates fixed-frequency switching losses, enabling >90% efficiency at 100mA–600mA loads across 12V–100V inputs. |
| Power Good Flag | Open-drain PG with ±7.5% VFBREF window and 1.9% hysteresis - provides reliable system reset sequencing and fault detection without external comparators. |
| Shutdown Current | <5µA - ensures minimal standby drain during system sleep modes or emergency cutoff. |
Pinout & Package
LT8630EFE#PBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 20-lead plastic TSSOP package (FE20 variant) with exposed GND pad (Pin 21) requiring PCB soldering for low θJC(PAD) = 10°C/W. High-voltage lead spacing meets reinforced insulation requirements for 100V systems.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (1) | Main power input and switch drain node | Accepts 3V–100V; connects directly to high-dI/dt switch node - requires local 2.2µF ceramic decoupling to GND. |
| EN/UV (3) | Enable and undervoltage lockout control | 1.19V threshold with 17mV hysteresis; sinking <100nA - enables programmable startup and brownout protection via resistor divider. |
| PG (5) | Power good status output | Open-drain flag pulled low when FB deviates >±7.5% from 0.808V - drives MCU reset or system supervisor ICs directly. |
| RT (8) | Frequency setting reference | Requires 8.66kΩ to GND - sets internal oscillator reference; determines boundary mode frequency under varying load/VIN. |
| TR/SS (10) | Soft-start and output tracking control | Sinks 4.5µA typical - controls VOUT ramp rate via external capacitor; supports voltage sequencing with other regulators. |
| FB (11) | Feedback input | Compares against 0.808V reference - sets output voltage via R1/R2 divider; bias current <25nA minimizes divider loading error. |
| VOUT (12) | Output sense and current measurement node | Connects to output capacitor positive terminal - senses inductor current via internal RSENSE for cycle-by-cycle current limiting. |
| IND (14) | Inductor connection | High-current path to external inductor - must be routed with low-inductance, wide copper trace to minimize EMI and switching loss. |
| INTVCC (16) | Internal 3V regulator bypass | Requires 2.2µF X7R ceramic to GND - powers internal logic; not for external loading. |
| BST (18) | Bootstrap supply for top switch gate drive | Requires 0.1µF ceramic between BST and SW - generates >VIN gate voltage for efficient high-side MOSFET conduction. |
| SW (20) | Switch node | Drives external inductor - high dV/dt node; must be kept short and adjacent to BST capacitor to minimize ringing. |
| GND (21) | Primary ground reference | Exposed pad - sole GND connection; must be soldered to large thermal pad for heat dissipation and low-noise small-signal grounding. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8640S-1 | Higher 8A output, 3.4V–65V input, integrated compensation, lower 2.5µA IQ in Silent Switcher mode | Targets higher-power applications (e.g., servo drives); lacks 100V rating and PG flag | Select LT8640S-1 only if >1A output and EMI-sensitive layout are priorities - not suitable for 72V+ telecom or PG-required systems. |
| LM5164QPWPRQ1 | 4.5V–65V input, 0.6A, 1.5µA shutdown IQ, no PG flag, different pinout and compensation scheme | Automotive AEC-Q100 qualified; optimized for cost-sensitive 12V/24V systems, not 100V-rated | Choose LM5164QPWPRQ1 for automotive production where AEC-Q100 compliance is mandatory - but verify absence of PG and lower VIN limit. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT8630EFE#PBF?
The LT8630EFE#PBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 100V on the VIN pin, with guaranteed operation from 3V to 100V. This allows direct interface with 48V, 72V, and 100V telecom supplies and automotive load-dump transients without external clamping components. The device's internal structure and high-voltage lead spacing in the TSSOP package ensure safe operation at this rating.
Does the LT8630EFE#PBF support output voltage tracking during power-up?
Yes, the LT8630EFE#PBF supports flexible output voltage tracking via the TR/SS pin, which sinks a precise 4.5µA current. By connecting a shared capacitor between TR/SS pins of multiple regulators, the LT8630EFE#PBF can track another supply's ramp rate. It also enables independent soft-start by connecting a capacitor from TR/SS to GND - ensuring controlled VOUT rise and eliminating input surge current.
What is the feedback reference voltage of the LT8630EFE#PBF and how precise is it?
The LT8630EFE#PBF uses a precision 0.808V feedback reference voltage (VFBREF) with ±12mV initial accuracy (±1.5%) over temperature. This value is specified across the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction range and enables accurate output programming (e.g., 5V via 1MΩ/191kΩ divider) with minimal drift. The low 25nA FB bias current further preserves divider accuracy.
How does the LT8630EFE#PBF achieve low quiescent current in light-load conditions?
The LT8630EFE#PBF achieves 16µA quiescent current at no load through Burst Mode® operation: it delivers discrete current pulses to the output capacitor, then enters deep sleep where most internal circuitry is disabled. During sleep, only essential bias circuits remain active - minimizing VIN current draw while maintaining <5mV output ripple. Efficiency remains >80% even at 100µA load.
Is the LT8630EFE#PBF pin-compatible with other members of the LT86xx family?
No, the LT8630EFE#PBF is not pin-compatible with other LT86xx devices such as LT8610 or LT8640. Its 20-pin TSSOP layout, pin functions (e.g., dedicated IND pin, NC/DNC placements), and internal architecture differ significantly. Substitution requires PCB redesign. Always verify pin mapping and thermal pad connection requirements before replacement.
