Product details
Overview
LTC3113EDHD#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a wide-input synchronous buck-boost DC/DC converter IC delivering up to 3A continuous output current with input/output voltage range of 1.8V–5.5V, fixed-frequency PWM or selectable Burst Mode operation, and low-noise architecture optimized for RF and precision instrumentation. It integrates dual N-channel and dual P-channel MOSFETs in a thermally enhanced 16-lead DFN package.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3113EDHD#PBF datasheet, LTC3113EDHD#PBF pinout, LTC3113EDHD#PBF application, or LTC3113EDHD#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3A output capability at VIN > 3.0V/VOUT = 3.8V, programmable 300kHz–2MHz switching frequency, <1μA shutdown current, integrated soft-start, and support for seamless buck/buck-boost/boost mode transitions without inductor current discontinuity.
Technical Context
The LTC3113EDHD#PBF implements a proprietary four-switch synchronous buck-boost topology with voltage-mode control, enabling regulation when VIN is above, below, or equal to VOUT. Its error amplifier drives VC to modulate duty cycles across SW1 and SW2 terminals, while internal gate drivers prevent shoot-through via anticross-conduction logic.
It features dual current limiting: an average input current limit (7.8A typ.) enforced via FB pin injection, and a fast peak current limit (11.1A typ.) for hard short protection. Reverse current limiting (–1.0A typ.) activates on switch D during fixed-frequency operation when external sources force VOUT above regulation.

Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead (5mm × 4mm × 0.75mm) plastic DFN with exposed PGND pad (Pin 17), thermally enhanced for high-current operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT (Pins 1, 2) | Buck-boost output node | Connects to output capacitor bank; must use low-ESR ceramic capacitors placed adjacent to pins |
| VIN (Pins 3, 4, 5) | Power input supply | Accepts 1.8V–5.5V; requires ≥47μF bulk bypass directly to PGND with minimal loop area |
| SGND (Pin 6) | Signal ground reference | Reference point for RT, FB, VC compensation network; isolated from PGND to reduce noise coupling |
| BURST (Pin 7) | Mode selection control | Low = fixed-frequency PWM (full 3A); high = Burst Mode (low-noise, reduced max load) |
| RT (Pin 8) | Oscillator frequency programming | Resistor-to-SGND sets fSW: RT ≈ 90/fMHz kΩ (e.g., 90.9kΩ = 1MHz) |
| VC (Pin 9) | Error amplifier output | Drives compensation network (R-C from VC to FB); determines loop stability and transient response |
| FB (Pin 10) | Feedback input | Monitors VOUT via resistor divider; 600mV reference enables precise output regulation |
| RUN (Pin 11) | Enable/disable control | Active-high logic; <0.3V = shutdown (<1μA IQ), >1.2V = enabled |
| SW1 (Pins 12, 13, 14) | Switch node A/B connection | Internal NMOS (B) and PMOS (A) switches; connects to one end of power inductor |
| SW2 (Pins 15, 16) | Switch node C/D connection | Internal NMOS (C) and PMOS (D) switches; connects to other end of power inductor |
| PGND (Exposed Pad) | Power ground return | Thermal and electrical ground path; must be soldered to large PCB copper area for thermal performance |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck-boost converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS63020DSJR | Lower max output current (2.5A), fixed 2.5MHz fSW, no programmable frequency; uses different control scheme (current-mode) | Limited to ≤2.5A loads; less flexible for EMI-sensitive RF applications requiring frequency tuning | Choose for cost-sensitive, lower-current portable devices where 2.5A suffices and fixed frequency is acceptable |
| MAX77827AEWI+T | Higher input range (2.5V–16V), 3.5A output, but larger 20-pin WLP package; lacks Burst Mode, higher IQ in light-load operation | Better suited for wide-input industrial sensors; not ideal for battery-powered devices needing sub-μA shutdown | Choose when input exceeds 5.5V or when higher output current margin is required, accepting larger size and higher light-load IQ |
Compared with TPS63020DSJR and MAX77827AEWI+T, the LTC3113EDHD#PBF uniquely combines 3A output, programmable 300kHz–2MHz switching, <1μA shutdown, and true seamless mode transition-making it optimal for high-performance portable instrumentation and RF-modem power rails where noise, efficiency, and dynamic input range are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current supported by the LTC3113EDHD#PBF?
The LTC3113EDHD#PBF delivers up to 3A continuous output current when VIN > 3.0V and VOUT = 3.8V. At lower input voltages (e.g., VIN ≥ 1.8V, VOUT = 3.3V), it supports 1.5A continuously. Peak current capability reaches 11.1A, but sustained operation above 3A requires careful thermal design and is limited by junction temperature rise. The LTC3113EDHD#PBF datasheet specifies these values under defined test conditions with proper PCB layout and thermal management.
Does the LTC3113EDHD#PBF support output voltages outside the 1.8V–5.5V range?
No-the LTC3113EDHD#PBF is specified for output voltage adjustment strictly between 1.8V and 5.5V, set via the FB pin resistor divider using the formula VOUT = 0.600 × (1 + R2/R1). Attempting to program outside this range violates the internal feedback reference and may result in regulation failure or excessive error amplifier saturation. The LTC3113EDHD#PBF's absolute maximum ratings also cap VIN and VOUT at 6V DC, further constraining usable range.
How does Burst Mode operation affect the maximum load current of the LTC3113EDHD#PBF?
In Burst Mode (BURST pin high), the LTC3113EDHD#PBF reduces switching frequency and delivers energy in discrete pulses, lowering light-load efficiency but capping maximum output current. For example, with IPK = 0.9A (Burst Mode peak limit), VIN = 3.3V, VOUT = 3.8V, and η ≈ 90%, IMAX ≈ 0.9 × (3.3/(3.3+3.8)) × 0.9 ≈ 370mA. Exceeding this causes output droop. The LTC3113EDHD#PBF automatically reverts to PWM mode if load demand surpasses Burst Mode capability.
What is the purpose of the SGND pin on the LTC3113EDHD#PBF, and how should it be routed?
The SGND (Signal Ground) pin on the LTC3113EDHD#PBF serves as the dedicated low-noise reference for the feedback divider, RT resistor, and VC compensation network. It must be separated from PGND (power ground) and connected only to the analog ground plane near FB, RT, and VC. Routing noisy PGND currents through SGND degrades regulation accuracy and loop stability. The LTC3113EDHD#PBF datasheet mandates star-point grounding at the IC to preserve 600mV reference integrity and minimize offset errors.
Can the LTC3113EDHD#PBF operate with input voltages below 1.8V?
No-the LTC3113EDHD#PBF has a minimum specified input voltage of 1.8V per its Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Operation below 1.8V triggers undervoltage lockout (UVLO) at ~1.6V (typical), disabling all switching and forcing shutdown. Even brief dips below 1.8V risk cycling into and out of UVLO under load, causing instability. The LTC3113EDHD#PBF is not rated or characterized for sub-1.8V operation, and doing so may impair reliability or cause functional failure.
