Product details
Overview
LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower, regulated 3.3V charge pump DC/DC converter in an 8-pin MSOP package. It delivers up to 80mA output current from inputs as low as 2.5V, features 20µA quiescent current, ±4% output regulation, and integrated PowerGood/undervoltage monitoring - ideal for Li-ion battery backup supplies and smart card readers.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF datasheet, LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF pinout, LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF application, or LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include regulated 3.3V output tolerance, ultralow shutdown current (<2µA), PGOOD fault signaling, soft-start programmability, and inductorless operation in space-constrained portable systems.
Technical Context
The LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF implements a Burst Mode™ switched-capacitor voltage doubler architecture with hysteresis-based regulation, enabling ultralow 20µA no-load current. Its internal comparator monitors VOUT via fixed resistive divider and enables/disables the charge pump based on upper/lower trip thresholds (±4.5% and ±7% of nominal).
It integrates dedicated terminals for flying capacitor (C+, C–), active-low CMOS shutdown (SHDN), open-drain PGOOD status output, and soft-start timing (SS). Thermal shutdown activates at ~160°C and cycles autonomously under sustained short-circuit conditions without latchup.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3V ±4% - tightly regulated for powering 3.3V logic rails and peripherals without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 80mA at VIN ≥ 2.5V - sufficient for low-power microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs in battery-powered devices. |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA typical - enables multi-year operation from coin cells or primary batteries in standby mode. |
| Shutdown Current | <2µA - ensures near-zero drain during system sleep, critical for energy harvesting and IoT endpoints. |
| Switching Frequency | 800kHz - allows use of small 1µF ceramic flying capacitors and minimizes EMI compared to lower-frequency charge pumps. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2V to 4.4V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), NiMH (2.4–3.0V), and alkaline (2–3.2V) sources. |
| PGOOD Thresholds | UVL = –7%, UVH = –4.5% - provides reliable undervoltage detection with hysteresis to prevent chatter during brownout recovery. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic MSOP (MS8), 3.0mm × 3.0mm × 0.86mm body, exposed pad not electrically connected. Pin 1 marked by dot; pin numbering counterclockwise from top-left corner when viewed from top.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (PGOOD) | Open-drain status output | Signals valid regulation (high-Z) or undervoltage fault (low); requires external pull-up for logic-level interfacing. |
| 2 (VOUT) | Regulated 3.3V output | Delivers up to 80mA; must be bypassed with ≥6.8µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor adjacent to pin. |
| 3 (VIN) | Main input supply | Accepts 2V–4.4V; requires ≥6.8µF low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitor close to pin. |
| 4 (GND) | Analog/digital ground reference | Must connect directly to solid ground plane; serves as thermal path and noise reference for regulation loop. |
| 5 (C–) | Flying capacitor negative terminal | Connects to negative side of non-polarized 1µF ceramic flying capacitor; voltage reverses during switching cycle. |
| 6 (C+) | Flying capacitor positive terminal | Connects to positive side of same flying capacitor; forms charge-transfer path with C– and internal switches. |
| 7 (SHDN) | Active-low enable control | CMOS input with VIH = 1.5V, VIL = 0.3V; must be driven - never left floating - to avoid undefined state. |
| 8 (SS) | Soft-start timing node | Sinks 2µA current; external capacitor sets VOUT ramp time (tr = 0.6ms/nF × CSS) to limit inrush current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-inductor topology | Eliminates magnetic components and associated EMI, size, and cost - enables ultra-thin PCB designs for wearables and smart cards. |
| Integrated PGOOD monitoring | Provides system-level power sequencing and fault reporting without external comparators or discrete logic. |
| Adjustable soft-start | Prevents input voltage sag and large inrush currents during startup - protects source battery and avoids brownout resets. |
| Short-circuit & thermal protection | Survives indefinite VOUT-to-GND shorts with automatic thermal cycling - no external current limiting required. |
| Ultralow shutdown disconnect | Isolates VOUT from VIN during shutdown, preventing backfeed and ensuring true zero-load condition for battery longevity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar regulated charge pump applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1754-5 | Fixed 5V output; SOT-23-5 package; 13µA IQ; max 50mA @ VIN ≥ 2V | Not suitable for 3.3V systems; smaller footprint but lower current capability | Select when 5V-only output and minimal board area outweigh need for 3.3V compatibility and higher current. |
| LTC1517-3.3 | Fixed 3.3V output; 6µA IQ; max 20mA @ VIN ≥ 2.7V; no PGOOD or soft-start | Lacks fault monitoring and inrush control; insufficient for >40mA loads | Choose only for ultra-low-power sensor nodes where 20mA suffices and PGOOD is unnecessary. |
Compared with LTC1754-5 and LTC1517-3.3, the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF uniquely balances 80mA output, 3.3V precision regulation, PGOOD signaling, and soft-start programmability - making it the only option among the three qualified for robust, medium-current portable power management with system-level diagnostics.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF?
The LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 6V, but its specified operating range is 2V to 4.4V. Exceeding 4.4V may cause overvoltage stress on internal circuitry and degrade regulation accuracy or reliability. For inputs above 4.4V, consider using an external LDO or clamp circuit before the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF VIN pin.
Does the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF require external feedback resistors?
No, the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF does not require external feedback resistors. It integrates a precision internal resistive divider to set the 3.3V output voltage. The FB pin is absent on this variant - only present on the adjustable LTC1751 version. This simplifies layout and improves regulation stability across temperature and load.
Can the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF drive a 100mA load?
No, the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF is rated for up to 80mA output current when VIN ≥ 2.5V. Attempting to draw 100mA will cause output voltage droop beyond ±4% regulation and may trigger thermal shutdown under sustained load. For 100mA applications, the LTC1751EMS8-5 (5V version) or alternative regulators like the LTC3526L should be evaluated.
How does the PGOOD pin function on the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF?
The PGOOD pin on the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF is an open-drain output that transitions from low to high-impedance once VOUT reaches within ±4.5% of 3.3V during startup. If VOUT falls below –7% of nominal (3.07V), PGOOD pulls low to signal undervoltage fault. An external pull-up resistor (e.g., 100kΩ to VOUT) is required for proper logic-level operation.
What capacitor values are recommended for the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF?
For the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#PBF: use a 1µF X7R ceramic flying capacitor (CFLY) between C+ and C–; 10µF low-ESR ceramic input (CIN) and output (COUT) capacitors; and optional 1nF–10nF soft-start capacitor (CSS) on SS pin. Murata GRM39X5R105K6.3AJ (CFLY) and GRM40X5R106K6.3AJ (CIN/COUT) are validated choices per Linear's design notes.
