Product details
Overview
LTC1682CS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-stage charge pump IC with integrated low-noise LDO regulator, designed to generate stable, ultra-low-noise boosted supply rails for RF-sensitive circuits. It accepts 1.8V–4.4V input, delivers up to 50mA at adjustable 2.5V–5.5V output, features 60µVRMS output noise (100kHz BW), operates at 550kHz switching frequency, and requires no inductors-only ceramic capacitors.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1682CS8#PBF datasheet, LTC1682CS8#PBF pinout, LTC1682CS8#PBF application, or LTC1682CS8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 5V output variant compatibility, MSOP/SO-8 package footprint, shutdown current <5µA, thermal/short-circuit protection, and suitability for VCO power in cellular transceivers where phase noise integrity is critical.
Technical Context
The LTC1682CS8#PBF integrates a switched-capacitor voltage doubler followed by a precision low-dropout linear regulator. The charge pump stage generates ~2×VIN at CPO, which feeds the LDO; regulation occurs via internal 1.235V reference and error amplifier comparing FB voltage to that reference.
It employs burst-mode operation below 100µA load to reduce quiescent current to 150µA while maintaining LDO stability with ≥2µF output capacitance. Internal thermal shutdown activates above 150°C junction temperature, and short-circuit protection limits output current indefinitely without damage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 1.8V to 4.4V - supports single-cell Li-ion, NiMH, or 3.3V system rails without external level shifting. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5V (±2% over temp) - eliminates external feedback resistors; optimized for powering 5V VCOs and PLLs. |
| Output Noise | 64µVRMS (10Hz–100kHz) - enables clean RF biasing; measured with 1nF FILT capacitor and 4.7µF output cap. |
| Max Output Current | 50mA - sufficient for low-power VCOs, RF switches, and sensor signal chains without thermal derating. |
| Switching Frequency | 550kHz (±14%) - high enough to avoid audio-band interference; low enough for efficient ceramic capacitor use. |
| Shutdown Current | 1µA - enables battery-powered standby modes with negligible drain over months. |
| Dropout Voltage | 90mV @ 10mA - ensures regulation down to VIN = 4.1V when delivering 5V, maximizing usable input range. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SO (Small Outline, narrow 0.150"), RoHS-compliant, lead-free (Pb-free) finish per #PBF suffix.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT (Pin 1) | Regulated output | 5V low-noise supply rail; requires ≥2µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor directly at pin for stability and noise suppression. |
| SHDN (Pin 2) | Enable control input | Active-high logic; pulls VOUT to ground via 100Ω switch when low; connect to VIN for always-on operation. |
| FILT (Pin 3) | Reference filter node | Connects to 1nF capacitor to ground; filters internal 1.235V reference to minimize output voltage noise. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Power and signal reference | Main return path; must be tied to solid ground plane to minimize noise coupling and thermal resistance. |
| C– (Pin 5) | Flying capacitor negative terminal | Completes charge transfer cycle with C+; requires 0.22µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor rated ≥6.3V. |
| VIN (Pin 6) | Main input supply | 1.8V–4.4V input; bypassed with ≥2µF low-ESR capacitor near pin to suppress ripple and support transient current. |
| C+ (Pin 7) | Flying capacitor positive terminal | Alternates polarity with C– during charge pump operation; same capacitor connects between C+ and C–. |
| CPO (Pin 8) | Unregulated charge pump output | ~2×VIN intermediate rail; bypassed with ≥2µF low-ESR capacitor; supplies LDO stage and must remain >1.45×VIN. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-inductor architecture | Enables compact, EMI-optimized layouts using only ceramic capacitors-no magnetic components or layout-sensitive inductors required. |
| Integrated LDO filtering | Reduces charge pump ripple by >40dB; delivers 64µVRMS noise vs. >800µVP-P unfiltered CPO ripple across 10Hz–2.5MHz bandwidth. |
| Thermal & short-circuit protection | Shuts down at 150°C junction temperature and limits output current indefinitely-no external current-sense or thermal monitoring needed. |
| Burst Mode efficiency | Reduces operating current to 150µA at light loads (<100µA), extending battery life in intermittent-use wireless modules. |
| Wide temperature rating | Specified for 0°C to 70°C commercial operation (C-grade); validated performance across full range ensures reliability in handheld environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise charge pump regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1682CS8-5 | Identical SO-8 package, same electrical specs, but marked "CS8-5" instead of "CS8#PBF"; RoHS-compliant with Pb-free finish. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in new designs where part marking consistency is not required. | Select LTC1682CS8#PBF for guaranteed Pb-free compliance per JEDEC J-STD-609; LTC1682CS8-5 may have legacy plating variants. |
| LTC1682IMS8-5 | Same functionality and pinout, but rated for –40°C to 85°C industrial temperature range; higher θJA (140°C/W). | Required for outdoor or automotive-adjacent deployments where ambient exceeds 70°C. | Choose LTC1682IMS8-5 only if extended temperature operation is mandatory; LTC1682CS8#PBF is cost-optimized for consumer/portable use. |
Compared with LTC1682CS8#PBF, LTC1682CS8-5 offers identical performance with alternate marking, while LTC1682IMS8-5 trades commercial-grade cost for industrial temperature resilience-neither is pin-compatible with non-5V variants like LTC1682CS8 or LTC1682CS8-3.3 due to internal resistor network differences.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the LTC1682CS8#PBF?
The LTC1682CS8#PBF delivers up to 50mA of continuous output current at 5V while maintaining regulation and thermal safety. At higher loads, internal current limiting engages, and output voltage drops; sustained operation above 50mA is not specified and may trigger thermal shutdown depending on PCB copper area and ambient conditions. The datasheet confirms 50mA as the maximum tested and guaranteed output under full temperature range.
Does the LTC1682CS8#PBF require external feedback resistors to set its output voltage?
No, the LTC1682CS8#PBF does not require external feedback resistors because it is the fixed 5V version (LTC1682-5 variant). Its internal resistor divider sets VOUT to 5.0V ±2%, with Pin 3 configured as FILT-not FB-so no external resistor network is needed. This simplifies layout and improves noise immunity compared to the adjustable LTC1682 version.
Can the LTC1682CS8#PBF operate from a 1.8V input supply?
Yes, the LTC1682CS8#PBF supports input voltages as low as 1.8V. At this minimum VIN, the charge pump generates ~3.6V at CPO, and the LDO maintains 5V output as long as CPO remains above 1.45×VIN (i.e., >2.61V). With proper capacitor sizing (≥4.7µF on CPO and VOUT), the device regulates stably down to 1.8V input across the full 0°C–70°C temperature range.
How does the LTC1682CS8#PBF achieve its low output noise specification?
The LTC1682CS8#PBF achieves 64µVRMS output noise through cascaded noise reduction: first, the charge pump uses controlled edge rates and non-overlapping clocks to minimize switching spikes; second, the integrated LDO provides >40dB ripple rejection; third, the FILT pin (Pin 3) accepts a 1nF capacitor to stabilize the 1.235V reference, directly lowering output voltage noise floor. All three mechanisms are active simultaneously in the LTC1682CS8#PBF.
Is the LTC1682CS8#PBF pin-compatible with other variants in the LTC1682 family?
Yes, the LTC1682CS8#PBF shares identical SO-8 pinout and footprint with all other LTC1682 variants (e.g., LTC1682CS8, LTC1682CS8-3.3), including matching pin functions: VOUT, SHDN, FILT/FB, GND, C–, VIN, C+, and CPO. However, Pin 3 function differs-FILT for fixed-output versions versus FB for adjustable-so external circuitry must match the variant's configuration to avoid malfunction.
