Product details
Overview
LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower, regulated 5V charge pump DC/DC converter in an 8-pin MSOP package. It delivers up to 100mA output current with VIN ≥ 3V, features 20µA quiescent current, 800kHz switching frequency, and integrated PowerGood/undervoltage detection. It is used in Li-ion battery backup supplies and PCMCIA local 5V generation where inductor-free, low-quiescent-power conversion is critical.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF datasheet, LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF pinout, LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF application, or LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include regulated 5V ±4% output accuracy, thermal/short-circuit protection, soft-start programmability via SS pin, shutdown disconnect functionality, and compatibility with ceramic flying capacitors (≥1µF).
Technical Context
The LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF implements a Burst Mode™ switched-capacitor voltage doubler architecture to achieve ultralow quiescent current. Regulation is maintained via hysteresis-based comparator control of the charge pump, with PGOOD monitoring output validity against –7% undervoltage threshold.
It operates across 2.7V–5.5V input, delivers regulated 5V output with ±4% tolerance at ≤100mA load, and uses external CFLY (1µF ceramic) and bypass capacitors to define charge pump strength, ripple, and start-up behavior. Thermal shutdown activates at ~160°C and cycles until fault removal.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5V ±4% - Ensures stable logic-level supply for 5V microcontrollers or peripherals without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 100mA at VIN ≥ 3V - Supports moderate-power loads like USB peripheral power rails or small FPGA I/O banks. |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA typical - Enables multi-year battery life in always-on backup or smart card applications. |
| Switching Frequency | 800kHz - Allows use of compact 1µF ceramic flying capacitor and minimizes EMI filtering burden. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - Compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), 3.3V system rails, and 5V USB sources. |
| PGOOD Threshold | Undervoltage detection at –7% VOUT (4.65V) - Provides reliable system reset signaling during brownout. |
| Shutdown Current | <2µA - Isolates load from VIN during sleep mode, eliminating standby leakage paths. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin MSOP (3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed pad (not electrically connected). Pin 4 (GND) must be tied to a solid ground plane for thermal and regulation stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - PGOOD | Open-drain status output | Signals valid 5V output (high-Z) or undervoltage fault (pulled low); requires external pull-up for logic interfacing. |
| 2 - VOUT | Regulated 5V output | Must be bypassed with ≥10µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for ripple suppression. |
| 3 - VIN | Input supply (2.7–5.5V) | Requires ≥10µF low-ESR ceramic bypass; high-frequency transients demand short PCB trace to GND. |
| 4 - GND | Power and signal reference | Primary thermal path; must connect to internal/external ground plane for thermal shutdown margin and noise immunity. |
| 5 - C– | Flying capacitor negative terminal | Connects to negative side of 1µF X7R ceramic flying capacitor; polarity reversal occurs-tantalum prohibited. |
| 6 - C+ | Flying capacitor positive terminal | Connects to positive side of same flying capacitor; forms charge-transfer path with C– during clock phases. |
| 7 - SHDN | Active-low enable input | CMOS-compatible; drives low to disable device and disconnect VOUT from VIN; must not float. |
| 8 - SS | Soft-start timing input | 2µA current source ramps voltage; 4.7nF capacitor yields ~2.8ms VOUT rise time, limiting inrush current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-inductor architecture | Eliminates magnetic components and EMI concerns-ideal for space-constrained portable designs. |
| Thermal + short-circuit protection | Self-cycling shutdown at ~160°C prevents damage during sustained overload or output short. |
| Programmable soft-start | Capacitor on SS pin controls VOUT ramp rate, preventing input supply sag or LDO dropout in shared-rail systems. |
| Load disconnect in shutdown | VIN-to-VOUT isolation ensures zero hold-up current-critical for battery-backed real-time clocks. |
| Low-noise regulation | 75mVP-P ripple at 50mA load with 10µF COUT enables direct powering of analog sensors or RF ICs. |
Applications

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 | SOT-23-5 package; 13µA IQ; 50mA max output; no PGOOD or SS pins. | Limited to lower-current, space-constrained apps without status signaling or controlled start-up. | Select LTC1754-5 only if board area is critical and PGOOD/soft-start are unnecessary. |
| LTC1517-5 | 6µA IQ; 20mA max output; fixed 5V; no PGOOD; MSOP-8 but different pinout (no SS/PGOOD). | Suitable only for ultra-low-power, low-current bias rails-not for dynamic loads or system monitoring. | Choose LTC1517-5 only for sub-20mA standby rails where efficiency dominates over functionality. |
Compared with LTC1754-5 and LTC1517-5, the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF uniquely combines 100mA capability, PGOOD fault reporting, and programmable soft-start in MSOP-8-making it the only option for robust, medium-current, battery-backed 5V generation requiring system visibility and controlled turn-on.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF to deliver full 100mA output?
The LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF requires VIN ≥ 3V to sustain 100mA output current while maintaining 5V ±4% regulation. At VIN = 2.7V, maximum output drops to 50mA per datasheet specifications. Below 2.7V, regulation fails and output collapses-this hard limit is defined by the charge pump's voltage-doubling topology and internal switch RDS(on).
Can the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF drive a 10µF output capacitor without violating startup requirements?
Yes-the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF is characterized with 10µF COUT and supports it directly. However, larger COUT increases minimum turn-on time and inrush current; soft-start via the SS pin (e.g., 4.7nF) mitigates this. The datasheet confirms stable operation with 10µF low-ESR ceramic capacitors at both VIN and VOUT.
Does the PGOOD pin on the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF provide both power-good indication and undervoltage fault detection?
Yes-the PGOOD pin on the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF performs dual functions: it transitions to high-impedance once VOUT reaches 5V ±4%, and pulls low if VOUT falls below 4.65V (–7% of nominal), indicating an undervoltage fault. This behavior is preprogrammed and requires no external components beyond a pull-up resistor.
Is a flying capacitor required for the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF, and what type must it be?
Yes-a flying capacitor is mandatory. It must be a non-polarized, low-ESR ceramic capacitor (X7R dielectric recommended), minimum 1µF. Polarized types (tantalum, aluminum) are strictly prohibited due to voltage reversal during charge-pump operation, which would cause catastrophic failure.
How does thermal shutdown behave on the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF during continuous short-circuit conditions?
Under continuous VOUT-to-GND short, the LTC1751EMS8-5#PBF draws 200–400mA from VIN, heating the junction until thermal shutdown triggers at ~160°C. It then cycles on/off indefinitely-disabling the charge pump until junction cools to ~150°C-without latch-up or damage, preserving reliability during field faults.
