Product details
Overview
LTC1707CS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC converter IC designed for battery-powered systems. It delivers up to 600mA output current with up to 96% efficiency, operates from 2.85V to 8.5V input, features 350kHz fixed-frequency PWM with external synchronization up to 550kHz, and supports low-dropout operation via 100% duty cycle - ideal for single/dual Li-ion portable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1707CS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC1707CS8#TRPBF application, or LTC1707CS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its internal P/N-channel MOSFETs, 0.8V feedback reference enabling outputs down to 0.8V, Burst Mode™ operation for <200µA quiescent current at light load, precision 2.7V undervoltage lockout, and SO-8 package compatibility with standard PCB layout practices.
Technical Context
The LTC1707CS8#TRPBF implements a constant-frequency current-mode control architecture with integrated high-side P-channel and low-side N-channel MOSFETs. Its error amplifier output (ITH pin) directly controls peak inductor current, while slope compensation prevents subharmonic oscillation above 40% duty cycle.
It supports three operational modes: Burst Mode™ (enabled by floating or pulling SYNC/MODE high), pulse-skipping mode (SYNC/MODE grounded), and externally synchronized PWM (385–550kHz TTL/CMOS clock). Undervoltage lockout (2.7V ±0.15V) and short-circuit frequency foldback (to ~35kHz) are hardware-enforced protections.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.85V to 8.5V - supports single Li-ion (2.85–4.2V) and dual Li-ion (5.7–8.4V) battery inputs without external regulators. |
| Output Current | 600mA (VIN ≥ 4V) - derated below 4V per Figure 2a; sufficient for baseband processors, RF transceivers, and sensor subsystems. |
| Switching Frequency | 350kHz (internal), synchronizable to 385–550kHz - enables compact 15µH inductors and reduces EMI in noise-sensitive audio/RF sections. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.80V ±2.5% - sets minimum VOUT = 0.8V; allows precise resistor-divider programming of 0.8V–VIN outputs (e.g., 1.2V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V). |
| Quiescent Current | 200µA (Burst Mode), 11µA (shutdown) - extends battery runtime in standby/sleep states of portable instruments and modems. |
| Efficiency Peak | 96% at VOUT = 3.3V, VIN = 6V, IOUT = 300mA - achieved via synchronous rectification eliminating Schottky loss and low RDS(ON) FETs (0.5Ω/0.6Ω typ). |
| UVLO Threshold | 2.70V ±0.15V with 100mV hysteresis - prevents deep discharge of Li-ion cells and ensures clean startup/shutdown sequencing. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic SO (SO-8), 150 mil width, JEDEC MS-012AC, θJA = 120°C/W, TJMAX = 125°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ITH (1) | Error amplifier output / current limit control | Voltage (0–1.2V) sets peak inductor current; used for external compensation and soft-start ramp control. |
| RUN/SS (2) | Enable + soft-start timing input | Pull <0.4V for shutdown; capacitor to GND sets soft-start time (~0.5s/µF); internal 2.25µA current source ramps voltage. |
| VFB (3) | Feedback node input | Compares resistive divider output against 0.8V reference; determines regulated output voltage accuracy and loop stability. |
| GND (4) | Power and signal ground reference | Common return for all internal circuits; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into control loop. |
| SW (5) | Switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt square-wave current from internal P/N-FETs; requires tight layout with minimal trace inductance. |
| VIN (6) | Main input supply | Accepts 2.85–8.5V; requires local 22µF ceramic decoupling close to pin to suppress switching transients. |
| SYNC/MODE (7) | External sync clock input / mode select | Float or tie to VIN for Burst Mode™; ground for pulse-skipping; apply 385–550kHz TTL/CMOS clock for synchronization. |
| VREF (8) | Precision 1.19V reference output | ±1% accuracy, stable to 100µA load and 2000pF capacitance; usable as auxiliary reference for ADCs or comparators. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode - reduces BOM count, board area, and conduction losses by replacing diode drop with low RDS(ON) N-FET. |
| Burst Mode™ operation | Reduces quiescent current to 200µA at light loads while maintaining regulation - critical for battery life in cellular standby and wireless sensor sleep cycles. |
| 100% duty cycle dropout | Enables VOUT ≈ VIN − IOUT × RDS(ON)_P - extends usable battery range down to 2.85V input without output collapse. |
| Internal current-mode control | Provides inherent line/load transient immunity and simplifies loop compensation - no external type-II/III network required for most applications. |
| Programmable soft-start | Capacitor on RUN/SS pin controls output ramp rate and inrush current - prevents input rail sag and enables controlled power sequencing with other ICs. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF to start switching?
The LTC1707CS8#TRPBF has a precision undervoltage lockout (UVLO) that activates at 2.70V ±0.15V. It begins switching only when VIN rises above this threshold - typically 2.80V during ramp-up at 25°C. Below 2.85V, maximum output current is derated, and full 600mA is guaranteed only for VIN ≥ 4V. The LTC1707CS8#TRPBF remains latched off until VIN exceeds the UVLO release point, ensuring safe Li-ion cell operation.
Can the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF regulate output voltages lower than 0.8V?
No, the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF cannot regulate below 0.8V because its internal feedback reference is fixed at 0.80V ±2.5%. The output voltage is set by VOUT = 0.8V × (1 + R1/R2), so the lowest achievable regulated output is exactly 0.8V (when R1 = 0Ω and R2 is omitted or shorted). Attempting sub-0.8V operation results in loss of regulation and uncontrolled VOUT collapse. For lower outputs, consider the LTC3630 or LTC3631 families.
How does the SYNC/MODE pin affect efficiency at light loads?
When the SYNC/MODE pin is floating or tied to VIN, the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF enters Burst Mode™, reducing quiescent current to 200µA and maintaining >85% efficiency down to ~1mA load. Grounding SYNC/MODE forces pulse-skipping mode, which increases light-load ripple and lowers efficiency to ~70% at 10mA but eliminates low-frequency audio noise. The LTC1707CS8#TRPBF's Burst Mode™ is disabled during external synchronization to prevent beat frequencies.
What is the purpose of the ITH pin on the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF, and can it be left unconnected?
The ITH pin on the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF is the error amplifier output and serves as the current limit control node. It must not be left unconnected: an open ITH causes unstable operation or complete failure to regulate. Standard use connects a series RC network (e.g., 47pF + 100kΩ) from ITH to GND for noise filtering and loop compensation. The LTC1707CS8#TRPBF relies on ITH voltage (0–1.2V) to set peak inductor current - disconnecting it breaks the control loop.
Does the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF require an external Schottky diode?
No, the LTC1707CS8#TRPBF does not require an external Schottky diode because it integrates both high-side P-channel and low-side N-channel synchronous MOSFETs. This eliminates reverse-conduction losses and thermal stress associated with discrete diodes, reduces component count, saves PCB area, and improves full-load efficiency by up to 8% compared to asynchronous buck converters. The LTC1707CS8#TRPBF's synchronous design is intrinsic to its architecture and requires no external rectifier.
