Product details
Overview
LTC1147LIS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-efficiency, constant off-time current-mode step-down switching regulator controller designed to drive an external P-channel MOSFET. It delivers regulated 3.3V output at up to 2A load current, supports 3.5V–14V input range, achieves >95% peak efficiency, maintains 160µA standby current in Burst Mode, and operates in an 8-pin SOIC package for compact DC/DC conversion in battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1147LIS8#PBF datasheet, LTC1147LIS8#PBF pinout, LTC1147LIS8#PBF application, or LTC1147LIS8#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its adjustable feedback architecture (via external resistor divider), 1.25V reference voltage, 25–150mV current sense threshold, 3.8–6.5µs programmable off-time, and compatibility with low-RDS(ON) logic-level P-MOSFETs for low-input-voltage operation.
Technical Context
The LTC1147LIS8#PBF implements a constant off-time current-mode control architecture with automatic Burst Mode™ operation to sustain high efficiency across three decades of output current (0mA–2A). Its internal 1.25V reference and feedback pin (Pin 6) enable precise output voltage setting via external resistive dividers, supporting configurable outputs beyond fixed 3.3V/5V variants.
It features dual-mode regulation: continuous conduction mode above ~300mA load, and Burst Mode below that threshold-reducing quiescent current to 160µA and standby power to 2mW at VIN = 10V. The CT pin (Pin 2) sets switching frequency via external capacitor, while SENSE+ (Pin 5) and SENSE– (Pin 4) form a precision current-sense interface with built-in offset for stable ripple-current detection.

FAQ
What output voltage does the LTC1147LIS8#PBF regulate?
The LTC1147LIS8#PBF is the adjustable version of the LTC1147 family and does not have a fixed output voltage. It uses an internal 1.25V reference and feedback pin (Pin 6) to support user-configured outputs via external resistor dividers. Typical configurations include 3.3V, 5V, or custom values such as 2.5V - all with ±3% regulation accuracy over line, load, and temperature. The LTC1147LIS8#PBF datasheet specifies VOUT = 1.25 × (1 + R2/R1), where R1 connects from VFB to GND and R2 from VOUT to VFB.
How does the LTC1147LIS8#PBF achieve high efficiency at light loads?
The LTC1147LIS8#PBF achieves high light-load efficiency through automatic Burst Mode™ operation, which disables switching and places most internal circuitry into sleep state when output current drops below ~300mA. In this mode, quiescent current falls to 160–260µA and standby power drops to just 2mW at VIN = 10V. The LTC1147LIS8#PBF resumes normal switching only when output voltage droops beyond hysteresis, ensuring regulation is maintained without sacrificing efficiency during idle or intermittent-use periods.
Which external components are mandatory for basic LTC1147LIS8#PBF operation?
Four external components are mandatory for functional LTC1147LIS8#PBF operation: (1) RSENSE (current sense resistor, typically 0.02–0.05Ω) to set peak inductor current; (2) CT capacitor (e.g., 390pF) on Pin 2 to define off-time and frequency; (3) feedback resistor divider (R1/R2) connecting VOUT to Pin 6 and Pin 6 to GND to set output voltage; and (4) a P-channel MOSFET (e.g., Si4431DY) driven by Pin 8. Additional required passives include input/output capacitors (CIN, COUT) and an output Schottky diode (D1).
Can the LTC1147LIS8#PBF operate with input voltages below 3.5V?
No - the LTC1147LIS8#PBF has a specified minimum input voltage of 3.5V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Operation below 3.5V is not guaranteed and may result in failure to start, loss of regulation, or undefined behavior. For sub-3.5V applications, alternative controllers such as the LTC3642 or ADP2370 should be evaluated. The LTC1147LIS8#PBF's 3.5V lower limit is a hard specification tied to internal biasing and reference stability, not a recommended operating condition.
What is the function of Pin 3 (ITH) on the LTC1147LIS8#PBF?
Pin 3 (ITH) on the LTC1147LIS8#PBF serves as the gain amplifier decoupling point and directly modulates the current comparator threshold voltage. By applying a voltage to ITH, the user can dynamically adjust the current trip point - enabling adaptive current limiting or load-tracking functionality. In standard applications, ITH is bypassed to GND with a small capacitor (e.g., 100pF) to stabilize the gain stage. The LTC1147LIS8#PBF datasheet confirms that increasing the ITH voltage raises the current comparator threshold, thereby scaling peak inductor current proportionally to load demand.
