Product details
Overview
LTC3119IFE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a monolithic 18V, 5A synchronous buck-boost DC/DC converter with 2.5V–18V input range, 0.8V–18V output range, 400kHz–2MHz programmable switching frequency, and integrated 30mΩ N-channel power switches. It delivers 5A output in buck mode (VIN > 6V), supports MPPC for solar/battery energy harvesting, and operates down to 250mV after startup-ideal for backup power and wide-input battery systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3119IFE#TRPBF pinout, LTC3119IFE#TRPBF application, or LTC3119IFE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its seamless buck-boost transition, Burst Mode® operation (35µA no-load IQ), 28-lead TSSOP thermal performance (θJA = 21°C/W), and compatibility with photovoltaic input regulation via MPPC functionality.
Technical Context
The LTC3119IFE#TRPBF implements a proprietary 4-switch PWM architecture enabling continuous conduction across VIN < VOUT, VIN = VOUT, and VIN > VOUT without mode-transition transients or subharmonics. Its current-mode control loop uses an internal 795mV feedback reference and error amplifier with 120µS transconductance for stable regulation under dynamic load steps.
It integrates dual bootstrap drivers (BST1/BST2) for high-side N-FET gate drive, a dedicated VCC LDO (3.7V ±150mV, 180mA limit), and a precision RUN comparator (1.205V threshold, 90mV hysteresis) for accurate input UVLO setting. The MPPC pin accepts a resistive divider to regulate input voltage at 798mV, enabling maximum power point tracking for capacitive or PV sources.
Key Specifications

| Feedback Reference | 795mV ±8mV over temperature-ensures tight output voltage accuracy (±1% typical) without external trimming components. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC3119IFE#TRPBF is housed in a 28-lead Plastic Enhanced TSSOP package with exposed pad (Pin 29 = PGND) requiring soldering to PCB ground plane for thermal integrity (θJA = 21°C/W). Pin functions are identical between QFN and TSSOP variants per datasheet Figure 12.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 19) | VCC Regulator Input | Supplies internal 3.7V LDO; must be decoupled with ≥4.7µF ceramic capacitor to PGND for stable biasing of control circuitry. |
| PVIN (Pins 22, 23) | Main Input Power Rail | Connects to high-side switch A; requires low-impedance path to ≥10µF bulk capacitor for ripple suppression and peak current delivery. |
| SW1 (Pins 21, 24) | Buck-Boost Inductor Node A | Drives one side of coupled inductor; connects to BST1 via 0.1µF capacitor for gate drive rail generation. |
| SW2 (Pins 5, 8) | Buck-Boost Inductor Node B | Drives opposite side of coupled inductor; connects to BST2 via 0.1µF capacitor for gate drive rail generation. |
| PVOUT (Pins 6, 7) | Main Output Power Rail | Delivers regulated output; requires low-ESR ≥10µF capacitor to PGND for transient response and ripple filtering. |
| FB (Pin 12) | Voltage Feedback Input | Sets output voltage via resistor divider; 795mV reference enables precise regulation independent of temperature drift. |
| MPPC (Pin 15) | Maximum Power Point Control | Accepts resistive divider from VIN to GND to regulate input voltage at 798mV-critical for solar charger and capacitor backup applications. |
| RUN (Pin 18) | Enable & UVLO Threshold Input | Enables IC when >1.205V; hysteresis prevents chatter during brownout; external divider sets custom input undervoltage lockout. |
| PWM/SYNC (Pin 28) | Mode Control & Clock Sync | High = forced PWM mode; low = Burst Mode®; external clock sync up to 2MHz enables EMI reduction in noise-sensitive systems. |
| PGOOD (Pin 10) | Open-Drain Power-Good Indicator | Pulls low when FB drops >8% below regulation-provides system-level fault signaling for sequencing or monitoring. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for startup of the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF?
The LTC3119IFE#TRPBF requires a minimum input voltage of 2.5V to initiate startup, as governed by the VCC undervoltage lockout threshold. Once operational, it can continue regulating down to 250mV input if VCC is externally bootstrapped-enabling full utilization of supercapacitors or deeply discharged batteries. This behavior is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table (Note 4) and Typical Performance Characteristics (Figure G26).
Does the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF support synchronization to an external clock, and what is the maximum frequency?
Yes, the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the PWM/SYNC pin up to 2MHz. The internal PLL can only increase the oscillator frequency, so the RT resistor must be selected to program a base frequency lower than the sync clock. Minimum pulse width is 100ns, and sync is valid across the full 400kHz–2MHz operating range per the Electrical Characteristics table and Applications section.
How does the Maximum Power Point Control (MPPC) function work on the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF?
The MPPC pin on the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF is a precision 798mV input regulation comparator. When connected to a resistive divider from VIN to GND, it forces the input voltage to maintain 798mV at the pin-thereby regulating the source (e.g., solar panel or capacitor) at its maximum power point. The pin draws only 50nA, minimizing divider current error, and is disabled when tied to VCC per the Pin Functions description.
What is the thermal performance difference between the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF and the QFN variant LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF?
The LTC3119IFE#TRPBF in 28-lead TSSOP has θJA = 21°C/W, while the LTC3119EUFD#TRPBF in 4mm × 5mm QFN has θJA = 22°C/W. Both packages share identical junction-to-case thermal resistance and require exposed-pad soldering to PCB ground. The TSSOP offers slightly better board-level heat spreading in constrained layouts, whereas the QFN provides superior thermal performance in high-airflow or heatsinked assemblies.
Can the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF operate in Burst Mode® and PWM mode simultaneously?
No-the LTC3119IFE#TRPBF operates exclusively in either Burst Mode® (light loads, <400mA typical) or fixed-frequency PWM mode (heavier loads), with automatic seamless transition between them. Forcing PWM/SYNC high locks it into PWM mode regardless of load; pulling it low enables Burst Mode®. The device never blends both modes-it selects the optimal one based on load current and control pin state per the Operation section and Figure G29–G37.
