Product details
Overview
LT8640SIV-2#PBF from Analog Devices is a 42V, 6A synchronous step-down Silent Switcher regulator with internal compensation, 2.5µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, 30ns minimum on-time, and 200kHz–3MHz adjustable switching frequency. It delivers up to 96% efficiency at 1MHz (12VIN→5VOUT) and operates across –40°C to 125°C for automotive and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT8640SIV-2#PBF datasheet, LT8640SIV-2#PBF pinout, LT8640SIV-2#PBF application, or LT8640SIV-2#PBF equivalent, key selection factors include ultralow EMI performance, spread-spectrum modulation capability, forced continuous mode support, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
The LT8640SIV-2#PBF uses peak current mode control with Silent Switcher architecture to suppress radiated EMI emissions while maintaining high efficiency at 1–3MHz switching frequencies. Its 30ns minimum on-time enables high step-down ratios (e.g., 42VIN→3.3VOUT) without pulse-skipping artifacts.
Burst Mode operation reduces input quiescent current to 2.5µA when regulating 12VIN to 3.3VOUT, while forced continuous mode (FCM) ensures consistent switching frequency across load range for predictable EMI filtering and transient response. Internal compensation eliminates external loop components.

Pinout & Package
LT8640SIV-2#PBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 24-lead LQFN package (4mm × 4mm × 0.94mm) with exposed GND pads (Pins 25–28) requiring soldering to PCB for optimal thermal performance (θJC = 7°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BIAS (1) | Internal regulator supply | Accepts VOUT (≥3.3V) to reduce VIN current draw and improve light-load efficiency. |
| INTVCC (2) | Internal 3.4V rail bypass | Requires ≥1µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor; powers gate drivers and control logic. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LT8640SIV-2#PBF?
The LT8640SIV-2#PBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 42V on all VIN pins (Pins 5, 6, 13, 14). Operation above this voltage risks permanent damage. The device is designed for automotive battery systems (including cold-crank and load-dump transients) and industrial 24/36V rails, with guaranteed operation from 3.4V to 42V.
Does the LT8640SIV-2#PBF support spread spectrum modulation, and how is it enabled?
Yes, the LT8640SIV-2#PBF supports spread spectrum modulation to reduce peak EMI emissions. It is enabled by connecting the SYNC/MODE pin (Pin 20) to INTVCC (~3.4V) or an external 3V–4V supply. This activates forced continuous mode with 22% frequency dithering centered on the RT-set frequency, improving CISPR 25 compliance without hardware changes.
What is the quiescent current of the LT8640SIV-2#PBF in Burst Mode operation?
The LT8640SIV-2#PBF draws 2.5µA from VIN when regulating 12VIN to 3.3VOUT in Burst Mode operation (SYNC/MODE = GND). This value is measured across the full –40°C to 125°C temperature range and enables multi-year battery life in always-on automotive modules such as telematics control units.
Can the LT8640SIV-2#PBF be synchronized to an external clock source?
Yes, the LT8640SIV-2#PBF can be synchronized to an external clock source via the SYNC/MODE pin (Pin 20). Applying a clean CMOS/TTL clock signal to this pin forces the device into forced continuous mode and aligns its switching edges to the external frequency, enabling deterministic EMI placement and multi-regulator phase control in complex power systems.
Is the LT8640SIV-2#PBF qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the LT8640SIV-2#PBF is AEC-Q100 Grade I qualified (–40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature) and manufactured under controlled automotive processes. It is designated for use in automotive applications including infotainment, ADAS domain controllers, and body electronics where reliability, thermal robustness, and EMC compliance are mandatory.
