Product details
Overview
LT8640SEV#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a 42V, 6A synchronous step-down Silent Switcher 2 regulator with 2.5µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, 30ns minimum on-time, internal compensation, and integrated bypass capacitors for ultralow EMI. It operates from 3.4V to 42V input, delivers up to 6A continuous output, and targets noise-sensitive automotive and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT8640SEV#TRPBF datasheet, LT8640SEV#TRPBF pinout, LT8640SEV#TRPBF application, or LT8640SEV#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include EMI performance in compact layouts, ultralow IQ for battery-backed systems, forced continuous mode for transient-critical loads, spread spectrum capability, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use.
Technical Context
The LT8640SEV#TRPBF uses second-generation Silent Switcher 2 architecture with integrated VIN/BST/INTVCC bypass capacitors to minimize radiated EMI without external layout sensitivity. Its peak current mode control supports high step-down ratios at 200kHz–3MHz switching frequencies.
Burst Mode operation enables 2.5µA IQ regulating 12VIN to 3.3VOUT; forced continuous mode (FCM) ensures fast transient response and harmonic control across full load range; spread spectrum modulation further reduces EMI peaks. Internal compensation eliminates external RC network requirements.
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 | 6A continuous, 7A peak - sufficient for powering FPGA cores, DSPs, or multi-rail subsystems from single-stage conversion. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.5µA in Burst Mode (12VIN→3.3VOUT) - enables >1-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes or telematics modules. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 3MHz (RT-programmable) - allows optimization of size vs. efficiency: 2MHz enables <3mm² inductor footprint. |
| Min On-Time | 30ns - supports 12VIN→1VOUT conversion at 2MHz without pulse-skipping instability. |
| EMI Performance | CISPR 25 Class 5 compliant with spread spectrum - eliminates need for external EMI filters in automotive infotainment and ADAS designs. |
| Package | 24-lead 4mm × 4mm LQFN - thermally enhanced with exposed GND pads (θJC = 7°C/W) for high-power density PCBs. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C junction) - qualified for engine bay, transmission control, and ADAS camera power rails. |
Pinout & Package
LT8640SEV#TRPBF is housed in a 24-lead LQFN package (4mm × 4mm × 0.94mm) with exposed thermal pad (pins 25–28, GND). The package matches standard QFN footprints and supports JEDEC-compliant reflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BIAS (1) | Internal regulator bias supply | Connect to VOUT (≥3.3V) to reduce VIN current draw and improve light-load efficiency; bypass with 1µF if using external supply. |
| INTVCC (2) | Internal 3.4V regulator output | Must be left floating; powers internal logic and gate drivers; sourced from BIAS if >3.1V, else from VIN. |
| GND (3, 16, 25–28) | Power and signal ground reference | Multiple low-inductance GND connections required; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB plane for thermal integrity (θJA = 24°C/W on demo board). |
| VIN (5, 6, 13, 14) | Main input power supply | Four parallel pins reduce IR drop and EMI; must be tied together and bypassed with ≥2.2µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pins. |
| BST (7) | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connect 0.22µF ceramic between BST and SW; floating pin - no external drive or loading permitted. |
| SW (8–12) | Switch node output | Five parallel SW pins reduce trace inductance; connect directly to inductor; keep node area minimal to suppress EMI. |
| EN/UV (17) | Enable and undervoltage lockout | Hysteretic threshold (0.96V/1.00V) enables programmable input UVLO via resistor divider from VIN. |
| RT (18) | Frequency setting resistor | Resistor to GND sets fSW: 221kΩ = 210kHz, 60.4kΩ = 700kHz, 18.2kΩ = 1.95MHz - enables precise EMI band avoidance. |
| CLKOUT (19) | Switching frequency monitor | Outputs ~200ns pulses at fSW in FCM/spread-spectrum/sync modes; low in Burst Mode; useful for system clock synchronization. |
| SYNC/MODE (20) | Operating mode selector | Ground = Burst Mode; float = FCM; INTVCC = spread spectrum; external clock = sync - single-pin multimode control. |
| TR/SS (21) | Soft-start and tracking control | 1.9µA internal pull-up enables capacitor-programmed slew rate; below 0.97V forces FB tracking - prevents inrush in multi-rail sequencing. |
| GND (22) | Signal ground return | Dedicated GND for feedback and error amplifier reference; tie to main GND plane with short, low-impedance path. |
| PG (23) | Power good open-drain output | Active-high when FB is within ±8% of 0.97V and no faults (thermal, UVLO, EN); pulls low during shutdown or fault - enables system power sequencing. |
| FB (24) | Feedback voltage sense | Regulated to 0.970V ±0.6%; connect resistive divider from VOUT; add 4.7–22pF phase-lead cap from FB to VOUT for stability. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT8640SEV#TRPBF?
The LT8640SEV#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 42V on the VIN, EN/UV, and PG pins. Operation is specified over a 3.4V to 42V input range, making it suitable for 24V and 36V industrial buses and automotive 12V/24V systems with load-dump transients. Exceeding 42V may cause permanent damage.
How does the LT8640SEV#TRPBF achieve ultralow EMI without external filtering?
The LT8640SEV#TRPBF integrates ceramic bypass capacitors for VIN, BST, and INTVCC directly into the LQFN package, minimizing high-di/dt loop areas and eliminating layout-dependent EMI. Combined with Silent Switcher 2's balanced SW node layout and optional spread spectrum modulation, it meets CISPR 25 Class 5 radiated emissions limits without external ferrites or shields.
Can the LT8640SEV#TRPBF operate in forced continuous mode (FCM) and what are its benefits?
Yes, the LT8640SEV#TRPBF enters forced continuous mode (FCM) when the SYNC/MODE pin is left floating. In FCM, the regulator maintains constant switching frequency across all load conditions, enabling predictable EMI behavior, faster load-transient response (<10µs for 1A step), and elimination of low-frequency beat notes common in burst-mode operation.
What is the purpose of the TR/SS pin on the LT8640SEV#TRPBF and how is it used?
TR/SS on the LT8640SEV#TRPBF controls soft-start ramp rate and output voltage tracking. An internal 1.9µA current source charges an external capacitor to set slew rate; pulling TR/SS below 0.97V forces FB to track TR/SS voltage, enabling precise power-rail sequencing in multi-output systems without additional controllers.
Is the LT8640SEV#TRPBF qualified for automotive applications and what grade does it meet?
Yes, the LT8640SEV#TRPBF is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications and meets Grade 1 specifications (–40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature). This qualification covers stress testing, reliability validation, and full temperature-range electrical characterization, making it suitable for engine control, ADAS, and infotainment systems.
