Product details
Overview
LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-efficiency, constant off-time current-mode step-down switching regulator controller driving an external P-channel MOSFET to deliver regulated 5 V output. It operates from 3.5 V to 16 V input, achieves >95% efficiency at full load, maintains regulation down to 160 µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, and supports up to 2 A output current with user-programmable current sense resistor. It is used in portable battery-powered systems requiring low-noise, high-efficiency DC/DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF pinout, LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF application, or LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 5 V output, 8-pin SOIC package, 160 µA sleep-mode supply current, 130–170 mV current sense threshold, and compatibility with external P-channel MOSFETs for low-dropout operation.
Technical Context
The LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF implements a constant off-time current-mode architecture that sets switching frequency via external CT capacitor and regulates output by comparing sensed voltage across RSENSE (pins 4–5) against a 125 mV internal reference. Its gain block and voltage comparator jointly manage transition between continuous conduction mode and Burst Mode based on output voltage deviation.
Burst Mode reduces quiescent current to 160 µA by disabling switching until output droop exceeds hysteresis; shutdown draws <20 µA. The device supports 100% duty cycle for low-dropout operation and includes short-circuit protection via extended off-time during overload.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.05 V (typical), ±2% over load/line/temp - ensures stable rail for logic and analog circuitry without external feedback resistors. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5 V to 16 V - supports wide-range battery inputs (e.g., 2S Li-ion, 12 V automotive) and industrial supplies. |
| Quiescent Current | 160 µA (sleep mode), <20 µA (shutdown) - enables multi-day battery life in always-on portable devices. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 130–170 mV (typical) - sets peak inductor current; allows precise IMAX control via RSENSE = 100 mV / IMAX. |
| Off-Time | 3.8–6.5 µs (CT = 390 pF, ILOAD = 700 mA) - determines minimum on-time and dropout behavior; scales inversely with VOUT. |
| Efficiency | >95% at 1 A, VIN = 10 V - minimizes thermal stress and extends runtime in space-constrained designs. |
| Shutdown Threshold | 0.5–2.0 V on SHDN pin - compatible with standard CMOS logic; enables clean system-level power sequencing. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8), 150°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, RoHS-compliant, tape-and-reel packaging (#TRPBF).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Main power input | Accepts 3.5–16 V supply; requires local 100 µF + 1 µF ceramic decoupling to minimize noise and transient voltage spikes. |
| CT (Pin 2) | Timing capacitor connection | Sets operating frequency via external capacitor; discharge current scales with VOUT to stabilize frequency near dropout. |
| ITH (Pin 3) | Gain amplifier decoupling | Adjusts current comparator threshold; connects to RC network for loop compensation and stability tuning. |
| SENSE– (Pin 4) | Current sense reference | Internal resistive divider node; forms differential pair with SENSE+ to detect RSENSE voltage drop and trigger MOSFET turn-off. |
| SENSE+ (Pin 5) | Current sense input | (+) input of current comparator; offset of 25–150 mV vs SENSE– defines trip point for inductor peak current limiting. |
| SHDN/VFB (Pin 6) | Shutdown control / feedback | Logic-level shutdown input (0.5–2 V threshold); grounded for normal operation; floating prohibited. |
| GND (Pin 7) | Analog/digital ground | Two independent ground paths required: one to COUT (–) and one to diode cathode/CIN (–) to prevent noise coupling. |
| PDRIVE (Pin 8) | MOSFET gate driver output | High-current source/sink (VIN to GND swing); drives P-channel gate directly; requires low-inductance layout for fast transitions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Burst Mode operation | Maintains >90% efficiency down to 0 mA load by disabling switching and reducing IQ to 160 µA - critical for IoT sensor nodes and standby power budgets. |
| Constant off-time current-mode control | Provides inherent line/load transient immunity and eliminates need for external compensation components in most applications. |
| 100% duty cycle capability | Enables ultra-low dropout regulation (VOUT ≈ VIN) using only RDS(ON) and inductor DCR - ideal for battery end-of-discharge operation. |

FAQ
What is the regulated output voltage of the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF?
The LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF provides a fixed 5.05 V (typical) regulated output voltage with ±2% tolerance over temperature, line, and load conditions. This value is factory-trimmed and does not require external feedback resistors - unlike the adjustable LTC1147L variants. The output remains stable across 5 mA to 2 A load current and input voltages from 3.5 V to 16 V, making LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF suitable for powering 5 V logic, sensors, and communication ICs in portable systems.
How does the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF achieve high efficiency at light loads?
The LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF achieves high efficiency at light loads through automatic Burst Mode operation, which disables switching and reduces quiescent current to 160 µA when output current drops below ~300 mA. During Burst Mode, the device wakes periodically to recharge the output capacitor, minimizing switching losses while maintaining regulation. This behavior is intrinsic to the constant off-time architecture and requires no external enable signal - a key advantage of LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF in battery-powered applications where standby power dominates total energy consumption.
Which external components are mandatory for basic operation of the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF?
Four external components are mandatory for basic operation of the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF: (1) an external P-channel MOSFET (e.g., Si4431DY), (2) a current sense resistor (RSENSE) sized per desired IMAX, (3) a timing capacitor (CT) on Pin 2 to set operating frequency, and (4) an output Schottky diode (e.g., MBRD330). Additionally, input (CIN) and output (COUT) capacitors are required for stability and ripple suppression - COUT ESR must be <2×RSENSE per LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF specifications to avoid false Burst Mode triggering.
Can the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF operate in 100% duty cycle mode, and what is its significance?
Yes, the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF supports 100% duty cycle operation, meaning the external P-channel MOSFET remains continuously on when VIN approaches VOUT. This enables ultra-low dropout regulation where VOUT ≈ VIN – ILOAD × RDS(ON), critical for sustaining operation during battery end-of-discharge (e.g., 5.2 V input delivering 5 V output). Unlike PWM controllers limited by minimum off-time, LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF's constant off-time architecture inherently permits this mode - a defining feature for portable equipment relying on diminishing battery voltage.
What is the function of the SHDN pin on the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF, and what voltage levels activate it?
The SHDN pin (Pin 6) on the LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF provides logic-controlled micropower shutdown: grounding the pin enables normal operation, while pulling it to >0.8 V (up to 2.0 V max) places the device in shutdown mode drawing <20 µA. The pin accepts standard CMOS logic signals with rise/fall times <1 µs and must never be left floating. This feature allows system-level power sequencing - for example, a microcontroller GPIO can assert SHDN to disable LTC1147CS8-5#TRPBF during deep sleep, ensuring zero-load battery drain in always-on edge devices.
