Product details
Overview
LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel, high-efficiency synchronous step-down switching regulator controller with user-programmable output voltages via external resistor dividers. It features constant off-time current-mode architecture, Burst Mode™ operation for ultralow quiescent current (160 µA per channel), and supports input voltages up to 20 V. Designed for space-constrained dual-rail power systems, it drives complementary external P- and N-channel MOSFETs in each channel for high conversion efficiency - exceeding 95% at full load.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF pinout, LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF application, or LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its adjustable dual-output capability (via VFB pins), 28-pin SSOP package, 1.25 V feedback reference, ±40 mV line regulation, and independent micropower shutdown (IQ < 40 µA per channel).
Technical Context
The LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF implements two independent constant off-time current-mode control loops, each with dedicated CT pins (11 and 25) setting operating frequency up to 250 kHz. Its architecture models inductor current decay using output-voltage-proportional CT discharge, enabling stable regulation across wide VIN–VOUT differentials - including 100% duty cycle low-dropout operation.
Each channel uses separate sense+ (Pins 1/15) and sense–/VFB (Pins 28/14 for fixed; Pins 2/16 for ADJ) inputs, with built-in 25–175 mV current-sense threshold range and programmable gain via ITH pins (13/27). Burst Mode™ activation is governed by voltage comparator hysteresis and internal sleep-line sequencing, reducing total supply current to 320 µA (both channels) at light loads.
Key Specifications

Package: 28-lead plastic SSOP (G package), 0.635 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (SENSE+3) | Current sense (+) input, Channel 1 | Connects to high-side of RSENSE; offset with Pin 28 sets current trip threshold. |
| Pin 2 (VFB1) | Feedback input, Channel 1 | Accepts resistive divider from VOUT1 to set regulated output voltage (1.25 V reference). |
| Pin 4 (PGND3) | Power ground, Channel 1 | Return path for N-channel MOSFET source and input capacitor - must be low-inductance, separate from SGND. |
| Pin 6 (NDRIVE3) | N-MOSFET gate driver, Channel 1 | High-current (2 A peak) low-side driver; swing from 0 V to VIN3 - requires careful layout to minimize shoot-through. |
| Pin 9 (PDRIVE5) | P-MOSFET gate driver, Channel 2 | High-current high-side driver; swing from VIN5 to 0 V - drives external P-channel FET directly. |
| Pin 10 (VIN5) | Input supply, Channel 2 | Primary power input for Channel 2; decoupling required within 5 mm of Pin 18 (PGND5). |
| Pin 11 (CT5) | Timing capacitor, Channel 2 | Sets operating frequency via external capacitor; discharge current scales with VOUT for adaptive off-time. |
| Pin 13 (ITH5) | Gain amplifier decoupling, Channel 2 | Adjusts current comparator threshold dynamically - connects to RC network for loop compensation. |
| Pin 14 (SENSE–5) | Current sense (–) / VFB return, Channel 2 | Internal resistive divider tap and current comparator (–) input - used as VFB reference point in ADJ mode. |
| Pin 15 (SENSE+5) | Current sense (+) input, Channel 2 | Paired with Pin 14 to set current limit; offset defines trip point with external RSENSE. |
| Pin 16 (VFB2) | Feedback input, Channel 2 | Independent output voltage programming node - enables dual-rail flexibility (e.g., 1.8 V + 3.3 V). |
| Pin 23 (PDRIVE3) | P-MOSFET gate driver, Channel 1 | High-side driver for P-channel FET; swing from VIN3 to 0 V - complements Pin 6 for synchronous rectification. |
| Pin 24 (VIN3) | Input supply, Channel 1 | Dedicated input for Channel 1; routed separately from VIN5 to avoid coupling noise between rails. |
| Pin 25 (CT3) | Timing capacitor, Channel 1 | Independent frequency setting for Channel 1 - allows asymmetric switching frequencies per rail. |
| Pin 27 (ITH3) | Gain amplifier decoupling, Channel 1 | Provides loop stability tuning point - critical for transient response under dynamic load steps. |
| Pins 5, 7, 8, 19, 21, 22 | No Connect | Internally unused - must remain unconnected and unstubbed to prevent parasitic coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent constant off-time controllers | Enables asymmetric output voltages and frequencies - eliminates need for two discrete controllers in multi-rail systems. |
| Burst Mode™ operation | Reduces total quiescent current to 320 µA (both channels), extending battery life in portable instruments without sacrificing regulation accuracy. |
| 100% duty cycle low-dropout mode | Maintains regulation when VIN approaches VOUT - avoids brownout in battery-discharge scenarios (e.g., 3.6 V Li-ion → 3.3 V rail). |
| Independent micropower shutdown | Each channel shuts down to <40 µA IQ - supports dynamic rail gating in FPGA or SoC power sequencing. |
| Programmable current limit via RSENSE | 25–175 mV threshold range allows precise overcurrent protection scaling - simplifies design for 0.5 A to 2 A output ranges. |

FAQ
What output voltage ranges can be programmed on the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF?
The LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF supports fully adjustable output voltages via external resistor dividers on VFB1 (Pin 2) and VFB2 (Pin 16). With its 1.25 V internal reference and typical ±4% tolerance, it can reliably generate outputs from 1.25 V up to just below the input voltage (e.g., 18 V with 20 V VIN), provided external MOSFETs and inductors are rated accordingly. The LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF does not impose fixed voltage constraints - design flexibility is determined by component selection and layout.
How does the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF achieve high efficiency at light loads?
The LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF achieves high efficiency at light loads through Burst Mode™ operation, which disables switching and places both channels into micropower sleep mode drawing only 160 µA per channel. During Burst Mode™, the output capacitor supplies load current until the regulated voltage drops below hysteresis threshold, triggering a short energy burst to recharge the capacitor. This mechanism maintains >85% efficiency down to 1 mA load - confirmed in Figure G01 and G02 of the official datasheet for the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF.
Can the two channels of the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF operate at different switching frequencies?
Yes, the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF supports independent switching frequencies per channel using separate CT capacitors: CT3 (Pin 25) for Channel 1 and CT5 (Pin 11) for Channel 2. Frequency is determined by CT value and input-to-output voltage differential, allowing asymmetric operation - for example, 500 kHz on Channel 1 for fast transient response and 300 kHz on Channel 2 to minimize EMI. This capability is explicitly documented in the Functional Diagram and Applications Information sections for the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF.
What is the maximum continuous output current supported by the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF?
The LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF itself does not deliver output current - it controls external P- and N-channel MOSFETs. Maximum continuous output current is determined by external component selection: RSENSE, MOSFET RDS(ON), inductor saturation current, and thermal design. Based on typical evaluation circuits (e.g., Figure 1), the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF supports ≥2 A per channel with proper layout and component derating. The datasheet specifies 50 mA continuous current at the IC's driver pins (Pins 6, 9, 20, 23), confirming robust gate drive capability for high-current FETs in the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF application.
Is the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF pin-compatible with other variants in the LTC1142 family?
No, the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF is not pin-compatible with fixed-output variants like LTC1142CG or LTC1142HVCG. While all share the same 28-pin SSOP package, pin functions differ significantly: the ADJ versions use Pins 2 and 16 as VFB inputs, whereas fixed versions use those pins as SENSE– nodes. Attempting direct replacement would cause incorrect feedback routing and regulation failure. Always verify pin mapping against the specific variant's datasheet - the LTC1142HVCG-ADJ#TRPBF requires dedicated layout for its VFB-based architecture.
