Product details
Overview
LT8640IUDC#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 integrated power MOSFETs. It delivers up to 96% efficiency at 1MHz (12VIN→5VOUT), supports 200kHz–3MHz programmable switching frequency, and operates across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature for automotive and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT8640IUDC#TRPBF datasheet, LT8640IUDC#TRPBF pinout, LT8640IUDC#TRPBF application, or LT8640IUDC#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include ultralow IQ in Burst Mode, EMI-optimized Silent Switcher architecture, forced continuous mode capability (via LT8640-1 variant), thermal performance in 3mm × 4mm QFN, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive systems.
Technical Context
The LT8640IUDC#TRPBF employs peak current-mode control with an internal 0.97V reference and adjustable oscillator (RT-pin programmable). Its Silent Switcher architecture uses symmetrical layout and integrated input capacitors to suppress EMI emissions, achieving CISPR 25 Class 5 compliance without external filters.
It features dual input rails (VIN1/VIN2), side-wettable QFN package with exposed SW pads, and configurable operation modes via SYNC/MODE pin - including Burst Mode (2.5µA IQ), pulse-skipping (LT8640), or forced continuous mode (LT8640-1). The BIAS pin enables efficiency optimization by sourcing INTVCC from VOUT when ≥3.3V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.4V to 42V - supports wide-range industrial and automotive battery inputs, including cold-crank and load-dump conditions. |
| Output Current | 5A continuous, 7A peak - enables single-chip 5V/5A or 3.3V/5A conversion without external current sharing. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5µA at full regulation - sustains >10-year battery life in always-on IoT sensors and telematics modules. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 3MHz (RT-programmable) - allows compact magnetics (e.g., 1µH at 3MHz) and avoids AM radio band interference. |
| Minimum On-Time | 30ns - enables high VIN-to-low VOUT conversion (e.g., 42V→3.3V at 2MHz) without pulse skipping. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.970V ±0.006V - provides precise output regulation with <±0.5% line/load regulation over temperature. |
| EMI Performance | CISPR 25 Class 5 compliant (radiated & conducted) - eliminates need for external EMI filters in automotive infotainment and ADAS designs. |
Pinout & Package
LT8640IUDC#TRPBF is housed in an 18-lead, 3mm × 4mm plastic QFN (UDC) package with side-wettable leads and exposed SW pads (pins 21, 22) for enhanced thermal dissipation (θJC = 12°C/W). Pins 5 and 12 are omitted; top-side marking "LGNJ" identifies the I-grade variant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BIAS (1) | Internal regulator bias supply | Accepts 3.3V–25V input to reduce VIN current draw; must be bypassed with 1µF if not tied to VOUT. |
| INTVCC (2) | Internal 3.4V LDO output | Powers control circuitry; requires ≥1µF low-ESR ceramic bypass to GND; no external loading permitted. |
| BST (3) | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Drives high-side MOSFET gate; requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to IC. |
| VIN1 (4), VIN2 (13) | Dual input power rails | Each requires dedicated 1µF local ceramic bypass; shared bulk input capacitor connects to both. |
| GND1 (6,7), GND2 (10,11) | Power switch return paths | Must be shorted together and connected to low-impedance ground plane near input capacitors. |
| SW (8,9,21,22) | Switch node outputs | Exposed pads (21,22) must be soldered to SW trace for thermal integrity; SW routing must be minimized for EMI control. |
| EN/UV (14) | Enable and undervoltage lockout | Hysteretic threshold (0.96V/1.00V) enables programmable input UVLO using resistor divider from VIN. |
| RT (15) | Oscillator frequency programming | Resistor to GND sets fSW: 221kΩ → 210kHz, 60.4kΩ → 700kHz, 18.2kΩ → 2.0MHz. |
| TR/SS (16) | Soft-start and output tracking | 1.9µA internal current source enables voltage ramp control; pulled low during fault/shutdown. |
| SYNC/MODE (17) | Operating mode selection | Ground = Burst Mode; float = FCM (LT8640-1); INTVCC-high = spread spectrum; clock input = sync mode. |
| GND (18) | System ground reference | Connects to system ground plane; separates signal ground from power ground paths. |
| PG (19) | Power good open-drain output | Asserts high when FB is within ±8% of 0.97V and VIN > 3.4V; pulls down with 2kΩ typical resistance. |
| FB (20) | Feedback voltage sense | Regulates to 0.970V; requires RC network (e.g., 4.7pF + resistor divider) for stability and phase margin. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8640-1IUDC#TRPBF | Forced Continuous Mode (FCM) instead of pulse-skipping; higher light-load IQ (~100µA vs 2.5µA); identical pinout and package. | Preferred for fast transient loads (e.g., RF PAs, FPGA core rails) where output voltage droop must be minimized. | Select LT8640-1IUDC#TRPBF when FCM operation is required; otherwise, LT8640IUDC#TRPBF offers superior light-load efficiency. |
| MPQ4433AGL-AEC1-P | 40V input, 3.5A output, 17µA IQ; AEC-Q100 qualified; no spread spectrum or Silent Switcher; 3mm × 4mm QFN. | Lacks CISPR 25 compliance; requires external EMI filtering; lower output current limits use cases to ≤3.5A. | Choose MPQ4433AGL-AEC1-P only if cost sensitivity outweighs EMI performance and 5A capability requirements. |
Compared with LT8640-1IUDC#TRPBF, the LT8640IUDC#TRPBF trades higher light-load efficiency for pulse-skipping behavior, while MPQ4433AGL-AEC1-P lacks integrated EMI mitigation and current capability - making LT8640IUDC#TRPBF optimal for high-reliability, EMI-constrained 5A automotive and industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for LT8640IUDC#TRPBF?
The LT8640IUDC#TRPBF is rated for operation from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and is guaranteed across this full range. Its thermal design supports θJA = 40°C/W on standard 2-layer PCBs, and the exposed SW pads (pins 21, 22) must be soldered to maximize heat transfer. Derating is recommended above 125°C to ensure long-term reliability.
Does LT8640IUDC#TRPBF support synchronization to an external clock?
Yes, the LT8640IUDC#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC/MODE pin (pin 17). When driven with a clean CMOS clock signal between 200kHz and 3MHz, the device locks its internal oscillator and operates in pulse-skipping mode, maintaining tight frequency alignment for noise-sensitive systems like audio amplifiers or ADC reference supplies.
How does the BIAS pin improve efficiency in LT8640IUDC#TRPBF?
The BIAS pin (pin 1) allows the LT8640IUDC#TRPBF to power its internal circuitry from VOUT instead of VIN when VOUT ≥ 3.3V. This reduces total input current by ~11mA (typical BIAS pin current at 2MHz), improving full-load efficiency by up to 1.2% - especially valuable in high-current, high-input-voltage applications like 42V→5V conversion.
Can LT8640IUDC#TRPBF operate with a 1µH inductor at 3MHz?
Yes, the LT8640IUDC#TRPBF supports 3MHz operation with a 1µH inductor, enabled by its 30ns minimum on-time. At 12VIN→5VOUT, this configuration delivers >90% efficiency with minimal output ripple (<10mVP-P), allowing ultra-compact designs ideal for space-constrained automotive ECUs and portable test equipment.
Is LT8640IUDC#TRPBF pin-compatible with LT8640-1IUDC#TRPBF?
Yes, the LT8640IUDC#TRPBF and LT8640-1IUDC#TRPBF share identical pinout, package (18-lead 3mm × 4mm QFN), and footprint. The only functional difference lies in the SYNC/MODE pin behavior: LT8640IUDC#TRPBF defaults to pulse-skipping when floating, while LT8640-1IUDC#TRPBF defaults to Forced Continuous Mode - requiring no PCB changes for migration.
