Product details
Overview
LTC3111HDE#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-temperature-rated, synchronous 4-switch buck-boost DC/DC converter with single-inductor architecture. It regulates output voltage from 2.5V to 15V across input voltages of 2.5V–15V, delivers up to 1.5A continuous output at 5V (VIN ≥ 5V, PWM mode), operates at 800kHz (synchronizable 600kHz–1.5MHz), and features <1µA shutdown current - ideal for battery-backed industrial power systems requiring seamless VIN-to-VOUT crossover.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3111HDE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3111HDE#TRPBF pinout, LTC3111HDE#TRPBF application, or LTC3111HDE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its extended junction temperature range (–40°C to 150°C), accurate RUN-pin UVLO programming (1.15V enable threshold), 49µA no-load quiescent current in Burst Mode®, and integrated short-circuit/thermal protection with output disconnect in shutdown.
Technical Context
The LTC3111HDE#TRPBF implements a proprietary 4-switch, single-inductor topology enabling continuous conduction-mode regulation when VIN < VOUT (boost), VIN > VOUT (buck), or VIN ≈ VOUT (buck-boost transition), eliminating output discontinuity. Its voltage-mode control loop uses an internal 0.8V reference and COMP pin-based Type III compensation for stable transient response across wide input/output ranges.
It integrates low-RDS(ON) N-channel MOSFETs (90mΩ for SW1, 105mΩ for SW2/BST switches), dual current limiting (2.3A input limit, 5.8A peak limit), reverse-current blocking (–1A limit), and thermally adaptive protection that linearly reduces current limit above ~170°C before full thermal shutdown at ~175°C.

Pinout & Package
Package: 14-lead (3mm × 4mm × 0.75mm) plastic DFN with exposed PGND pad (Pin 15), thermally enhanced for high-power density operation at 150°C junction rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SGND (Pin 1) | Signal Ground Reference | Return path for RUN and FB dividers; must be isolated from PGND until star-point connection to avoid noise coupling into feedback loop. |
| PWM/SYNC (Pin 2) | Mode Control & Clock Input | DC voltage <0.5V forces Burst Mode®; >1.5V enables 800kHz PWM; 600kHz–1.5MHz square wave overrides internal oscillator. |
| VCC (Pin 3) | Internal Bias Supply | Regulated ~4.2V supply for gate drivers and logic; tracks VIN up to clamp voltage, accepts external 2.5V–5.5V source for improved efficiency. |
| NC (Pin 4) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must be tied to GND per layout guidelines to minimize parasitic coupling. |
| VOUT (Pin 5) | Regulated Output Node | Delivers final regulated voltage; requires low-ESR ceramic capacitor (≥22µF) placed adjacent to pin with shortest possible ground return. |
| SW2 (Pin 6) | Inductor Switch Node (Boost Side) | Connects to one end of external inductor; drives internal switches C/D; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout and guard ring. |
| BST2 (Pin 7) | Floating Gate Drive Supply (D-Switch) | Requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to SW2; supplies boosted voltage for high-side D-switch driver in boost/buck-boost modes. |
| COMP (Pin 8) | Error Amplifier Output | Drives external Type III compensation network (RFF/CFF/CFB); sets loop stability and transient response; sensitive to noise. |
| FB (Pin 9) | Feedback Input | Monitors VOUT via resistor divider; 0.8V internal reference enables precise output programming; leakage <50nA preserves accuracy. |
| SNSGND (Pin 10) | Sense Ground Return | Dedicated ground for current-sensing paths; must connect directly to PGND near exposed pad to minimize offset errors. |
| RUN (Pin 11) | Enable & UVLO Programming | Resistive divider from VIN sets turn-on (1.15V typ.) and turn-off (1.03V typ.) thresholds with 120mV hysteresis for clean power sequencing. |
| VIN (Pin 12) | Main Input Supply | Accepts 2.5V–15V; requires ≥10µF low-ESR/low-ESL ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm for stable high-frequency operation. |
| SW1 (Pin 13) | Inductor Switch Node (Buck Side) | Connects to opposite end of external inductor; drives internal switches A/B; shares layout constraints with SW2 for balanced switching. |
| BST1 (Pin 14) | Floating Gate Drive Supply (A-Switch) | Requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to SW1; supplies boosted voltage for high-side A-switch driver in buck/buck-boost modes. |
| PGND (Exposed Pad) | Power Ground Plane | Primary thermal and current return path; must be soldered with ≥90% coverage and connected to solid ground plane via ≥6 thermal vias. |
Key Features

The LTC3111HDE#TRPBF is rated for a maximum junction temperature of 150°C, with guaranteed performance across –40°C to +150°C operating junction range. This H-grade qualification makes it suitable for under-hood automotive, military, and high-ambient industrial applications where standard E- or I-grade parts would require derating.
Does the LTC3111HDE#TRPBF support true buck-boost crossover operation?
Yes, the LTC3111HDE#TRPBF uses a proprietary 4-switch, single-inductor architecture that enables continuous regulation when VIN is above, below, or equal to VOUT - with no discontinuity in inductor current or output voltage. This eliminates the need for separate buck and boost converters in battery backup or multi-rail systems.
How is the RUN pin used to program undervoltage lockout on the LTC3111HDE#TRPBF?
The RUN pin on the LTC3111HDE#TRPBF accepts a resistive divider from VIN to set custom turn-on (1.15V typical) and turn-off (1.03V typical) thresholds with 120mV hysteresis. The formula VIN(RUN) = 1.2V × (1 + R5/R6) allows precise UVLO configuration for battery voltage monitoring or system-level power sequencing.
What is the quiescent current of the LTC3111HDE#TRPBF in Burst Mode® operation?
The LTC3111HDE#TRPBF draws 49µA typical quiescent current in Burst Mode® operation (measured at FB = 1V, PWM/SYNC = 0V), enabling extended battery life in always-on sensor nodes, telemetry devices, and low-power IoT endpoints without sacrificing startup speed or regulation accuracy.
Can the LTC3111HDE#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes, the LTC3111HDE#TRPBF supports external synchronization via its PWM/SYNC pin. Applying a square wave between 600kHz and 1.5MHz (with ≥100ns minimum high/low time) overrides the internal 800kHz oscillator, allowing EMI reduction through frequency dithering or alignment with system timing domains.
