Product details
Overview
LT8640HUDC#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a 42V, 5A synchronous step-down Silent Switcher regulator with 2.5µA quiescent current in regulation, 30ns minimum on-time, and AEC-Q100-qualified 150°C junction temperature rating. It delivers up to 96% efficiency at 1MHz (12VIN→5VOUT) and supports pulse-skipping mode for ultralow EMI in automotive infotainment power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF datasheet, LT8640HUDC#TRPBF pinout, LT8640HUDC#TRPBF application, or LT8640HUDC#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (3.4V–42V), forced continuous mode availability (LT8640-1 variant only), thermal grade (H-grade, –40°C to 150°C), and Silent Switcher architecture for CISPR 25 Class 5 radiated EMI compliance.
Technical Context
The LT8640HUDC#TRPBF implements peak current mode control with an internal 0.970V reference and programmable switching frequency (200kHz–3MHz via RT resistor). Its Silent Switcher architecture uses dual, matched input paths and integrated bypass capacitors to suppress common-mode EMI without external filters.
It features Burst Mode® operation (2.5µA IQ at full regulation), selectable operating modes via SYNC/MODE pin (Burst, pulse-skipping, spread spectrum, or external sync), and robust protection including thermal shutdown, VIN UVLO, and overcurrent limiting with 7.5A–12.5A typical current limit depending on duty cycle and temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.4V to 42V - supports wide automotive battery transients (cold crank, load dump) without external pre-regulation |
| Output Current | 5A continuous, 7A peak - sustains transient loads in ADAS camera modules and radar subsystems |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5µA in regulation - enables >10-year battery life in always-on vehicle telematics and remote keyless entry receivers |
| Min. On-Time | 30ns - enables high-frequency, high-step-down conversion (e.g., 42VIN → 3.3VOUT at 2MHz) |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 3MHz (RT-programmable) - allows optimization of size (high fSW) vs. efficiency (low fSW) per application |
| EMI Performance | CISPR 25 Class 5 compliant (with filter) - meets stringent automotive radiated emission limits without ferrite beads or shielding cans |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to 150°C (H-grade) - qualified for under-hood and transmission-control module environments |
Pinout & Package
LT8640HUDC#TRPBF is housed in an 18-lead 3mm × 4mm plastic QFN package with exposed SW pads (pins 21, 22) for thermal conduction. The package is RoHS-compliant, lead-free, and features side-wettable terminations for automated optical inspection (AOI).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BIAS (1) | Internal regulator bias supply | Reduces input supply current when tied to VOUT ≥3.3V; enables higher efficiency across full load range |
| INTVCC (2) | Internal 3.4V LDO output | Bypassed with ≥1µF ceramic capacitor; powers gate drivers and control logic; not for external loading |
| BST (3) | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Requires 0.1µF ceramic cap close to IC; enables high-side NMOS drive above VIN |
| VIN1/VIN2 (4,13) | Dual input power inputs | Each requires dedicated 1µF local ceramic bypass; reduces high-frequency input ripple and EMI loop area |
| GND1/GND2 (6,7,10,11) | Power switch return paths | Must be tied together and connected to low-impedance ground plane; minimizes switching noise coupling |
| SW (8,9,21,22) | Power switch node | Exposed pads (21,22) must be soldered to SW trace for thermal performance; critical for EMI reduction |
| EN/UV (14) | Enable and input undervoltage lockout | Hysteretic threshold (0.96V/1.00V); supports programmable VIN cutoff using external resistor divider |
| RT (15) | Frequency programming | Resistor to GND sets fSW (e.g., 60.4kΩ = ~2MHz); enables precise EMI frequency placement |
| TR/SS (16) | Soft-start and tracking | 1.9µA internal pull-up enables capacitor-based slew rate control; supports power sequencing with other rails |
| SYNC/MODE (17) | Operating mode selection | Ground = Burst Mode; float = pulse-skipping; INTVCC = spread spectrum; external clock = sync - no FCM on LT8640 variant |
| GND (18) | System ground reference | Connects to system ground plane; completes feedback and PG signal return path |
| PG (19) | Power good open-drain output | Asserts high when FB is within ±8% of 0.970V and no fault; drives µC reset or enable signals |
| FB (20) | Feedback voltage sense | Regulated to 0.970V; requires 4.7pF–22pF phase-lead capacitor between FB and VOUT for stability |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8640-1HUDC#TRPBF | Forced Continuous Mode (FCM) enabled; no pulse-skipping; higher light-load IQ (~600µA) | Required for fast transient response in CPU/GPU power rails where output voltage droop must be <1% | Select LT8640-1HUDC#TRPBF when load steps exceed 2A/µs and output capacitance is limited |
| MPQ4433AGL-A-Z | 40V max VIN, 3.5A continuous, 17µA IQ, no spread spectrum, non-AEC-Q100 | Suitable for industrial IoT gateways but not automotive under-hood use due to temp and qualification gaps | Choose MPQ4433AGL-A-Z only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive designs requiring smaller footprint (3mm × 3mm) |
Compared with LT8640-1HUDC#TRPBF and MPQ4433AGL-A-Z, the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF uniquely balances ultralow IQ (2.5µA), AEC-Q100 H-grade reliability, and Silent Switcher EMI suppression - making it optimal for always-on automotive subsystems where battery drain and EMC certification are co-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF?
The LT8640HUDC#TRPBF is an H-grade device rated for operation from –40°C to 150°C junction temperature. This qualification enables use in under-hood automotive applications such as engine control units and transmission control modules where ambient temperatures exceed 125°C. Thermal derating applies above 125°C to ensure long-term reliability.
Does the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF support forced continuous conduction mode (FCCM)?
No, the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF does not support forced continuous conduction mode. It is the standard LT8640 variant, offering Burst Mode®, pulse-skipping, spread spectrum, and external synchronization. For FCCM functionality, the LT8640-1HUDC#TRPBF must be selected - its SYNC/MODE pin floats to enable forced continuous operation.
How is EMI performance achieved in the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF without external filters?
The LT8640HUDC#TRPBF achieves low EMI through Analog Devices' patented Silent Switcher architecture: symmetrical dual-input power paths, integrated bypass capacitors, and optimized internal layout minimize magnetic field loop area and common-mode noise. With proper PCB layout (tight SW loop, grounded exposed pads), it meets CISPR 25 Class 5 radiated limits without ferrite beads or metal shields.
What is the purpose of the dual VIN1/VIN2 and GND1/GND2 pins on the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF?
The dual VIN1/VIN2 and GND1/GND2 pins on the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF implement the Silent Switcher architecture's balanced input path. VIN1 and VIN2 each connect to separate 1µF local ceramic capacitors referenced to their respective GND1 and GND2 pins, creating two identical, anti-phase current loops that cancel magnetic fields - directly reducing radiated EMI at the source.
Can the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock, and what is the required signal specification?
Yes, the LT8640HUDC#TRPBF can be synchronized to an external clock applied to the SYNC/MODE pin. The clock must be a CMOS-level signal (0V to ~3.4V) with frequency between 200kHz and 3MHz, 50% ±10% duty cycle, and rise/fall times <10ns. During sync, the device operates in pulse-skipping mode and aligns positive SW transitions to the external clock edge.
