Product details
Overview
LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a -3V, 100mA regulated inverting charge-pump DC/DC converter in a 6-pin TSOT-23 package. It operates from 2.3V to 5.5V input, delivers ±4% output voltage accuracy, features 25µA typical quiescent current, and supports both regulated output and open-loop -VIN inversion modes. It is used in single-supply portable systems requiring compact, low-noise negative bias.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF pinout, LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF application, or LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include output impedance (11Ω at VIN=3.3V), shutdown current (<1µA), 900kHz internal oscillator, thermal/short-circuit protection, and compatibility with ceramic flying/output capacitors (CFLY=1µF, COUT=10µF).
Technical Context
The LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF uses a two-phase nonoverlapping switched-capacitor topology with internal comparator-based hysteresis control to regulate VOUT at –3V. Regulation occurs by enabling the charge pump when VOUT droops above the upper trip point of COMP1 and disabling it upon reaching the lower trip point.
It integrates an internal 900kHz oscillator, fixed resistor divider for feedback sensing, and logic-controlled MOSFET switches (S1A/S1B/S2A/S2B). The SHDN pin enables zero-current shutdown with ~0.7V threshold, and thermal protection cycles operation between ~155°C shutdown and ~145°C restart during sustained overload.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | –3.0V ±4% (–2.88V to –3.12V) under regulation; ensures stable bias for analog circuitry requiring precise negative rail |
| Max Output Current | 100mA DC continuous; supports moderate-load applications like LCD bias or GaAs FET gate drive |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.3V to 5.5V; compatible with Li-ion, USB, and 3.3V/5V system rails without external LDO pre-regulation |
| Quiescent Current | 25µA typical (VIN ≤ 5.5V, IOUT = 0, SHDN = VIN); enables multi-year battery life in always-on portable devices |
| Oscillator Frequency | 900kHz typical; determines switching period (≈1.11µs) and influences capacitor sizing and ripple spectrum |
| Shutdown Current | <1µA (SHDN = 0V); eliminates standby power loss in sleep-mode systems |

| Open-Loop Impedance | 11Ω (VIN = 3.3V, VOUT = –3V); defines load regulation slope and minimum input voltage for regulation |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-lead plastic TSOT-23 (ThinSOT), 1mm height, JEDEC MO-193 compliant, footprint compatible with SOT-23 but with tighter pitch and thinner profile.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Positive input supply connection | Accepts 2.3V–5.5V; requires ≥4.7µF low-ESR bypass capacitor close to pin to suppress inrush transients |
| VOUT (Pin 2) | Regulated negative output terminal | Delivers –3V ±4%; must be bypassed with ≥4.7µF low-ESR capacitor to maintain regulation and minimize ripple |
| C+ (Pin 3) | Flying capacitor positive node | Switched between VIN and GND; connects to top plate of CFLY; tied to VCC during shutdown |
| C– (Pin 4) | Flying capacitor negative node | Switched between GND and VOUT; connects to bottom plate of CFLY; tied to GND during shutdown |
| GND (Pin 5) | Signal and power ground reference | Must connect to low-impedance ground plane; serves as return path for all internal and external currents |
| SHDN (Pin 6) | Logic-controlled enable/disable input | Drives high (≥1.1V) to enable; grounded to shut down; threshold ≈0.7V; must not float or exceed VIN |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar inverting charge-pump applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1983ES6-3#TRPBF | Same die, identical electrical specs, but supplied in standard 2500-unit tape-and-reel (vs. 500-unit #TRMPBF) | No functional difference; suited for high-volume production rather than prototyping or low-MOQ orders | Select #TRMPBF for evaluation or small-batch builds; choose #TRPBF for full production runs requiring standard reel quantities |
| LTC1754ES6-3#TRMPBF | Lower IQ (13µA), 50mA output, same TSOT-23 package; lacks open-loop –VIN mode and has different ROUT (15Ω) | Better for ultra-low-power sub-50mA loads; unsuitable for applications requiring >50mA or open-loop inversion | Choose LTC1754ES6-3#TRMPBF only if load current ≤50mA and lowest possible standby current is critical |
Compared with LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF, the #TRPBF variant offers identical performance in larger reels for cost-efficient manufacturing, while LTC1754ES6-3#TRMPBF trades output current and operational flexibility for reduced quiescent consumption-making it viable only in constrained low-load scenarios.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF?
The LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF delivers up to 100mA of continuous DC output current at –3V under specified thermal conditions (TA ≤ 85°C, proper PCB layout). Absolute maximum output current is 125mA, but sustained operation above 100mA may trigger thermal shutdown depending on ambient temperature and copper area. The device's 11Ω open-loop output impedance limits regulation margin at higher loads.
Does the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF require external feedback resistors to set the output voltage?
No, the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF does not require external feedback resistors. It features an internal resistor divider and reference circuit that fixes the regulated output at –3.0V ±4%. This eliminates component count, saves board space, and ensures consistent accuracy without trimming-unlike adjustable charge pumps such as the LTC1515 or LTC1751.
Can the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF operate in open-loop mode to generate –VIN?
Yes, the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF automatically enters open-loop mode when the regulation condition is unmet-specifically when VIN – 3.06V ≤ IOUT × ROUT. In this mode, it functions as a low-impedance inverter delivering VOUT ≈ –(VIN – IOUT × ROUT), enabling flexible bias generation without external control logic.
What is the recommended flying capacitor value for the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF?
The recommended flying capacitor (CFLY) value for the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF is 1µF ceramic (X5R or better dielectric), as validated in the datasheet's typical applications and performance curves. Smaller values (0.01µF–0.047µF) reduce ripple at very light loads but sacrifice output current capability and efficiency; larger values (>1µF) increase ripple unless COUT is also increased proportionally.
How does the LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF handle thermal overload conditions?
The LTC1983ES6-3#TRMPBF incorporates on-chip thermal shutdown that disables the charge pump when junction temperature exceeds ≈155°C and re-enables it once temperature falls to ≈145°C. This auto-cycling behavior continues indefinitely without latch-up or damage, providing robust protection during output shorts or excessive ambient temperatures-critical for unattended portable equipment.
