Product details
Overview
LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower, regulated charge pump DC/DC converter delivering a stable 3.3V ±4% output at up to 80mA with input voltage as low as 2.5V. It features 20µA quiescent current, 800kHz switching frequency, and integrated short-circuit/thermal protection. It is used in Li-ion battery backup supplies and smart card readers where ultra-low power and inductorless operation are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF pinout, LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF application, or LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include regulated 3.3V output capability under 2.5V–4.4V input, PGOOD fault monitoring, soft-start programmability, and MSOP-8 package compatibility for space-constrained portable designs.
Technical Context
The LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF operates in Burst Mode™ switched-capacitor voltage doubling topology to achieve ultralow quiescent current. Regulation is implemented via internal hysteresis comparator sensing VOUT through a fixed resistor divider, enabling/disabling the charge pump based on output deviation from 3.3V ±4%.
It integrates PGOOD open-drain status signaling with –7% undervoltage detection threshold, active-low CMOS-compatible SHDN with 0.3V/1.5V thresholds, and SS pin-controlled soft-start using external capacitor timing. Thermal shutdown activates at ~160°C and recovers at ~150°C, allowing safe indefinite short-circuit survival.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3V ±4% - tightly regulated rail suitable for 3.3V logic and analog circuitry without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 80mA @ VIN ≥ 2.5V - sufficient for low-power microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs in portable systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA typical - enables multi-year battery life in always-on backup and monitoring applications. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 4.4V - supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), NiMH/NiCd (2.4–3.6V), and regulated 3.3V supply inputs. |
| Switching Frequency | 800kHz - enables use of small 1µF ceramic flying capacitor and minimizes EMI compared to lower-frequency pumps. |
| Shutdown Current | <2µA - ensures near-zero drain during system sleep, critical for energy harvesting and long-duration standby. |
| PGOOD Threshold | –7% UVL (undervoltage lockout) - provides reliable system reset or fault flagging when VOUT drops below 3.07V. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin MSOP (3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed pad (not electrically connected in standard variant).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - PGOOD | Open-drain output status indicator | Signals VOUT regulation validity (high-Z) or undervoltage fault (low); requires external pull-up for logic-level interfacing. |
| 2 - VOUT | Regulated 3.3V output | Must be bypassed with ≥6.8µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for ripple suppression and stability. |
| 3 - VIN | Main input supply (2.5–4.4V) | Requires ≥6.8µF low-ESR ceramic bypass; high-impedance source impedance may necessitate larger CIN. |
| 4 - GND | Power and signal reference ground | Must connect directly to solid ground plane to minimize noise coupling and support thermal dissipation. |
| 5 - C– | Flying capacitor negative terminal | Connects to negative side of non-polarized 1µF ceramic flying capacitor; polarity reversal prohibits tantalum/aluminum use. |
| 6 - C+ | Flying capacitor positive terminal | Connects to positive side of same flying capacitor; forms charge-transfer path with C– during 2-phase clock cycle. |
| 7 - SHDN | Active-low enable/disable control | CMOS input with 0.3V/1.5V thresholds; must be driven - floating state causes undefined operation. |
| 8 - SS | Soft-start timing input | 2µA current source ramps voltage; 4.7nF yields ~2.8ms 10–90% VOUT rise time, limiting inrush current into output capacitance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-inductor architecture | Eliminates magnetic components, reducing BOM cost, board area, and EMI concerns in compact portable layouts. |
| Integrated PGOOD monitoring | Provides system-level power-good assertion and undervoltage fault detection without external comparators or resistors. |
| Adjustable soft-start | External capacitor on SS pin controls start-up slew rate, preventing input supply sag and load transient issues during power-on. |
| Thermal shutdown with auto-recovery | Protects against sustained overloads by cycling charge pump on/off at ~160°C/150°C junction temperatures. |
| Ultra-low shutdown disconnect | Shuts down all internal circuitry and isolates VOUT from VIN, ensuring zero load current during deep sleep modes. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF to deliver rated 80mA output?
The LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF requires VIN ≥ 2.5V to sustain 80mA output current while maintaining 3.3V ±4% regulation. Below 2.5V, output current capability degrades progressively; at VIN = 2.0V, maximum supported load is approximately 40mA per electrical characteristics table. Operation below 2.5V is permissible but must be validated for specific load and temperature conditions.
Does the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF require external feedback resistors to set its output voltage?
No, the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF does not require external feedback resistors. It integrates a precision internal resistor divider calibrated to regulate VOUT to 3.3V ±4%. The FB pin is absent on this variant - only the base LTC1751 (non-suffixed) uses FB for adjustable output. Using external resistors with LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF is neither necessary nor supported.
Can the PGOOD pin of the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF be left unconnected if not used?
No, the PGOOD pin of the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF must not be left floating. If unused, it should be connected directly to GND. Leaving it open may cause unpredictable behavior due to leakage currents or noise coupling, potentially interfering with internal comparator operation or causing false fault assertions during startup or transient events.
What is the recommended flying capacitor type and value for the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF?
The LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF requires a non-polarized 1µF X7R ceramic flying capacitor (e.g., Murata GRM39X5R105K6.3AJ). Polarized capacitors (tantalum, aluminum) are strictly prohibited due to voltage reversal during charge-pump phase switching. X7R ensures stable capacitance across –40°C to +85°C and minimal voltage coefficient, preserving 80mA output capability under all operating conditions.
How does the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF behave during a continuous VOUT-to-GND short circuit?
During a continuous VOUT-to-GND short, the LTC1751EMS8-3.3#TRPBF draws 200–400mA from VIN, triggering thermal shutdown at ~160°C junction temperature. It then cycles autonomously - disabling the charge pump until junction cools to ~150°C, then re-enabling - repeating indefinitely without damage. PGOOD remains low throughout, providing a reliable fault flag for system-level diagnostics.
