Product details
Overview
LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a monolithic 18V, 5A synchronous buck-boost DC/DC converter with 2.5V–18V input and 0.8V–18V output voltage ranges, proprietary 4-switch PWM architecture, 400kHz–2MHz programmable switching frequency, and maximum power point control (MPPC) for photovoltaic or supercapacitor energy harvesting applications.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF pinout, LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF application, or LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include seamless buck-boost mode transition, ultralow-noise PWM operation, <250mV minimum operating input after startup, 3µA shutdown current, and thermal performance in the 4mm × 5mm QFN package with exposed PGND pad.
Technical Context
The LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF implements a current-mode controlled, 4-switch synchronous buck-boost topology enabling continuous regulation across VIN = VOUT, VIN < VOUT, and VIN > VOUT conditions without discontinuities in inductor current or loop transfer function. Its internal VCC LDO (3.7V nominal, 180mA limit) powers gate drivers and control circuitry, while BST1/BST2 bootstrap rails support high-side N-channel MOSFET drive.
Operation includes Burst Mode® for sub-35µA no-load IQ, MPPC via resistive divider on MPPC pin (798mV threshold), accurate RUN comparator (1.205V rising threshold, 90mV hysteresis), and PLL-based synchronization up to 2MHz. The device supports external RT resistor programming and maintains regulation down to VIN = 250mV after startup when VCC is bootstrapped.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 18V continuous; operates down to 250mV after startup with VCC bootstrapping - enables full discharge of supercapacitors and multi-cell batteries. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.8V to 18V programmable via FB resistor divider - supports wide-rail system supplies including 3.3V, 5V, and 12V loads. |
| Max Output Current | 5A in buck mode (VIN > 6V); 3A at VIN = 3.6V/VOUT = 5V - defined by internal 8A current limit and thermal limits in QFN package. |
| Switching Frequency | 400kHz to 2MHz, set by RT resistor or synchronized externally - balances PCB area (higher fSW) vs. efficiency (lower fSW). |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA in Burst Mode® no-load; 3µA in shutdown - extends battery life in always-on or low-duty-cycle systems. |
| Power Switch RDS(ON) | 30mΩ per switch (PVIN→SW1, SW1→PGND, SW2→PGND, SW2→PVOUT) - minimizes conduction loss and thermal rise at 5A. |
| MPPC Threshold | 798mV ±24mV - enables precise input voltage regulation for solar chargers or capacitor backup systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead 4mm × 5mm plastic QFN with exposed PGND pad (Pin 29), rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature. Thermal resistance θJA = 22°C/W; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for rated performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| RUN (Pin 15) | Enable & UVLO Control Input | Enables IC above 1.205V; hysteresis prevents chatter; external divider sets custom input undervoltage lockout. |
| MPPC (Pin 12) | Maximum Power Point Control Input | 798mV threshold enables input voltage regulation for solar panels or supercapacitors; tie to VCC to disable. |
| PWM/SYNC (Pin 25) | Mode Control & Clock Sync | High = forced PWM; low = Burst Mode®; external clock sync up to 2MHz with ≥100ns pulse width. |
| BST1 (Pin 23) | SW1 Gate Drive Bootstrap | 0.1µF capacitor to SW1 generates high-side gate drive rail for switch A; critical for buck operation. |
| BST2 (Pin 28) | SW2 Gate Drive Bootstrap | 0.1µF capacitor to SW2 generates high-side gate drive rail for switch D; critical for boost operation. |
| VCC (Pin 13) | Internal Regulator Output | 3.7V ±150mV, 180mA max; powers internal circuitry and can supply ≤10mA external loads. |
| PGOOD (Pin 7) | Power Good Indicator | Open-drain output asserting when FB is within ±8% of target; requires external pull-up for system monitoring. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck-boost regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8390AEMSE#TRPBF | Higher 60V input rating, 4A output, spread-spectrum EMI reduction, but no MPPC or sub-250mV operation. | Better suited for automotive 12V/24V systems with high-voltage transients; lacks supercapacitor deep-discharge capability. | Select LT8390A when input may exceed 18V or EMI compliance is critical; avoid when MPPC or ultra-low VIN operation is required. |
| TPS63020DSJR | Lower 5.5V max input, 3A output, integrated compensation, but no RT programming, no MPPC, and no sub-2.5V operation. | Optimized for compact portable devices (e.g., wearables) with single-cell Li-ion inputs; not suitable for solar or backup power. | Select TPS63020 for cost-sensitive, space-constrained consumer designs with ≤5.5V input; avoid for industrial or energy-harvesting use cases. |
Compared with LT8390A and TPS63020, the LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF uniquely combines 18V input, 5A output, MPPC, and 250mV minimum VIN - making it the only choice for high-current solar chargers and supercapacitor backup systems requiring full energy extraction.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage at which LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF can operate after startup?
The LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF can operate down to 250mV input voltage after startup when the VCC pin is bootstrapped from the output or another auxiliary supply. This capability enables full energy extraction from supercapacitors and deeply discharged batteries. Below 2.5V, normal operation requires external VCC biasing - the 250mV limit is not applicable during initial startup.
Does LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF support synchronization to an external clock?
Yes, the LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the PWM/SYNC pin, accepting input clocks from 400kHz to 2MHz with minimum pulse width of 100ns. An internal PLL locks to the external clock, allowing noise-sensitive systems to eliminate beat frequencies and meet strict EMI requirements without sacrificing regulation performance.
How is Maximum Power Point Control (MPPC) implemented on LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF?
The LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF implements MPPC using the MPPC pin, which compares input voltage against a 798mV internal reference. A resistive divider from VIN to GND sets the desired input regulation point - for example, a 12V solar panel's MPP at 18V is tracked by scaling 18V down to 798mV. When enabled, the converter regulates VIN rather than VOUT, maximizing harvested power from current-limited sources.
What is the thermal performance of LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF in its QFN package?
The LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF in the 4mm × 5mm QFN package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 22°C/W when the exposed PGND pad is properly soldered to a 4-layer PCB with ≥2 in² copper pour. At 5A output and 12V input/5V output, typical temperature rise is ~45°C above ambient - enabling full-rated operation at 65°C ambient without forced airflow.
Can LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF be used in both buck and boost configurations exclusively?
Yes, the LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF can be configured for dedicated buck-only or boost-only operation by fixing the output voltage outside the input range - e.g., VOUT = 3.3V with VIN ≥ 4.5V forces buck mode, while VOUT = 12V with VIN ≤ 9V forces boost mode. In both cases, the 4-switch architecture remains active, preserving low-noise operation and high efficiency without mode-hopping artifacts.
