Product details
Overview
LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a constant-frequency, current-mode step-down DC/DC controller in SOT-23 packaging, designed to drive an external P-channel MOSFET for high-efficiency buck conversion. It delivers ±2.5% output voltage accuracy, operates from 2.5V to 9.8V input, supports 100% duty cycle in dropout, and achieves up to 94% efficiency in portable lithium-ion-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF pinout, LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF application, or LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its –40°C to 140°C operating temperature range, 550kHz fixed switching frequency, Burst Mode® operation for light-load efficiency, 0.8V reference enabling low-output-voltage designs, and UVLO threshold of 2.00V (typical) with hysteresis.
Technical Context
The LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF implements peak current-mode control with a 550kHz oscillator and internal slope compensation above 40% duty cycle to ensure loop stability. Its error amplifier drives the ITH/RUN pin, which sets the current comparator threshold and enables soft-start via external RC network.
It integrates undervoltage lockout (UVLO), overvoltage protection (OVP) at VFB > 0.860V (7.5% above 0.8V reference), short-circuit foldback (reducing frequency to ~120kHz), and shutdown control via ITH/RUN < 0.35V - all while consuming only 8µA in shutdown and 270µA quiescent current during normal operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Temp Range | –40°C to +140°C (guaranteed performance, junction-limited) |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 9.8V - supports single/dual Li-ion, wide-input portable rails |
| Switching Frequency | 550kHz (typical) - enables compact 4.7µH inductors and low-profile designs |
| Reference Voltage | 0.800V (±2.5%) - sets output via resistive divider; enables 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V outputs |
| Quiescent Current | 270µA (typical) - minimizes battery drain in active mode |
| Shutdown Current | 8µA (typical) - extends shelf life and standby time in battery systems |
| UVLO Threshold | 2.00V (typical, falling) - prevents erratic startup below safe Li-ion cell voltage |
| Peak Sense Voltage | 120mV - defines current limit; sets RSENSE for precise output current capability |

Package: 6-lead TSOT-23 (S6), 1.90mm × 2.80mm footprint, 0.95mm height, lead-free (PBF) compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| VFB (Pin 3) | Feedback input to error amplifier | Compares output voltage (via R1/R2 divider) against 0.8V reference |
| SENSE– (Pin 4) | Negative current-sense input | Monitors voltage drop across external RSENSE to detect peak inductor current |
| VIN (Pin 5) | Main power supply input | Supplies internal circuitry and gate driver; must be decoupled near Pin 2 |
| PGATE (Pin 6) | P-channel MOSFET gate driver output | Swings 0V to VIN; drives external high-side P-MOSFET with 40ns rise/fall times |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant-frequency current-mode control | Ensures predictable EMI profile and stable transient response across line/load variations |

Applications
| Portable Li-ion Power Supply | Industrial Sensor Node |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Powering 1.8V/2.5V logic and RF ICs in handheld medical devices or barcode scanners using two-series Li-ion cells (6.0–8.4V). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Step-down controller regulating stable low-voltage rail; no timing function - pure power conversion. Use Value: Burst Mode® extends battery runtime by 3× vs continuous mode at microamp loads; 140°C rating ensures reliability in sealed enclosures. | Use Scenario: Providing 3.3V supply to wireless sensor transceivers (e.g., LoRaWAN nodes) deployed in hot industrial environments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-temp DC/DC controller driving external P-MOSFET; handles wide VIN (3.3–9.8V) from backup supercaps or solar harvesters. Use Value: Guaranteed operation to +140°C eliminates derating; 550kHz frequency allows small 10µH inductor and ceramic output caps for vibration resistance. |
| Automotive Body Control Module | Distributed 2.5V System Rail |
Use Scenario: Generating 2.5V for CAN transceiver bias and microcontroller I/O in non-junction-box locations (e.g., door modules). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary buck controller; interfaces with external MOSFET and Schottky diode - no clock generation or timing role. Use Value: UVLO at 2.0V prevents brownout during cranking; 100% duty cycle maintains output during cold-cranking dips to 6V battery. | Use Scenario: Local point-of-load regulation for FPGA I/O banks or DDR memory termination in telecom baseband cards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone step-down controller delivering 2.5V/2A with minimal external components. Use Value: 0.8V reference enables precise 2.5V output via 80.6k/10k divider; 94% peak efficiency reduces thermal load on dense PCBs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1622CMS8#PBF | 8-lead MSOP; supports sync-to-external clock; wider VIN (2V–10V); higher max IOUT (4.5A) | Requires larger layout; lacks 140°C rating (only –40°C to 85°C); no Burst Mode® | Choose for higher current or synchronization needs; not drop-in due to package and feature mismatch. |
| LTC3630EMSE#PBF | Monolithic 2A buck regulator (integrated MOSFETs); 3.6V–15V VIN; 1MHz switching | No external FET required; smaller BOM but higher thermal density; lower max temp (125°C) | Prefer for space-constrained designs where integration outweighs thermal/temperature trade-offs. |
Compared with LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF, LTC1622CMS8#PBF offers higher current capability but sacrifices high-temperature operation and light-load efficiency, while LTC3630EMSE#PBF simplifies design with integrated switches yet limits maximum ambient temperature and requires different thermal management.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF?
The LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF is guaranteed to meet all electrical specifications over –40°C to +140°C ambient temperature, with junction temperature limited to 150°C. This H-grade qualification makes it suitable for under-hood automotive, industrial, and harsh-environment applications where standard commercial or industrial grades would fail.
Does the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF integrate power MOSFETs or require external ones?
The LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF is a controller-only device and requires an external P-channel MOSFET (e.g., Fairchild FDC638P or Si3443DV) and Schottky catch diode. It does not integrate any power switches - this architecture enables optimized thermal design, high-current scalability, and flexibility in selecting FETs for specific RDS(ON) and gate charge requirements.
How does Burst Mode® operation improve efficiency in the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF?
Burst Mode® operation in the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF disables switching cycles when load current falls below a threshold, reducing gate drive and bias losses. At 1mA load, it sustains >85% efficiency - significantly outperforming forced continuous mode (which drops to ~40%). This directly extends battery life in intermittently active devices like remote sensors or wearables.
Can the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF regulate output voltages below 1.8V?
Yes - the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF uses a precise 0.8V internal reference, so output voltage is set by VOUT = 0.8V × (1 + R1/R2). With appropriate resistor ratios and low-drift components, it reliably regulates down to 0.8V (e.g., 0.8V × (1 + 0/∞)) or any value above, provided external components (MOSFET, inductor, diode) support the required current and voltage headroom.
What is the purpose of the SENSE– pin on the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF?
The SENSE– pin (Pin 4) is the negative input to the internal current comparator. It monitors the voltage drop across an external sense resistor (RSENSE) placed between the source of the P-MOSFET and ground. When that voltage reaches 120mV (typical), the comparator triggers MOSFET turn-off - enabling accurate peak-current-mode control and overcurrent protection in the LTC1772HS6#TRMPBF.
