Product details
Overview
LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a high-efficiency, monolithic 4-switch synchronous buck-boost DC/DC converter delivering up to 5A output current with 2.5V–18V input and 0.8V–18V output voltage ranges. It features programmable 400kHz–2MHz switching frequency, Burst Mode® operation (35µA no-load IQ), and maximum power point control (MPPC) for photovoltaic or supercapacitor backup systems. Used in RF power supplies and wide-input battery-powered equipment.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF pinout, LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF application, or LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its –55°C to 150°C extended temperature rating, 28-lead TSSOP package with exposed PGND pad, seamless buck-boost mode transition, and MPPC capability for energy-harvesting inputs.
Technical Context
The LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF implements a proprietary 4-switch PWM architecture enabling continuous regulation across VIN < VOUT, VIN = VOUT, and VIN > VOUT without mode-switching transients. Its current-mode control loop uses an internal 795mV feedback reference and error amplifier with 120µS transconductance for stable compensation.
It integrates dual bootstrap drivers (BST1/BST2), a 3.7V internal VCC LDO (180mA limit), and a precision RUN comparator (1.205V threshold, 90mV hysteresis) for accurate input UVLO. The MPPC pin accepts a resistive divider to regulate input voltage at 798mV, supporting solar charger and capacitor backup applications.

| Power Switch RDS(ON) | 30mΩ per N-channel switch (PVIN→SW1, SW1→PGND, SW2→PGND, SW2→PVOUT); minimizes conduction loss. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 28-lead Plastic Enhanced TSSOP package with exposed PGND pad (Pin 29) requiring soldering to PCB ground plane for thermal performance (θJA = 21°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PGND (Pins 4, 9, 20, 25, Exposed Pad 29) | Power Ground Reference | Mandatory low-impedance connection to PCB ground plane; exposed pad must be soldered for thermal derating compliance. |
| VIN (Pin 19) | VCC Regulator Input | Supplies internal 3.7V LDO; requires local 4.7µF ceramic capacitor to PGND. |
| VCC (Pin 16) | Internal Control Rail Output | Provides regulated 3.7V supply for internal circuitry and up to 10mA external load. |
| FB (Pin 12) | Feedback Voltage Input | Sets output voltage via resistor divider; 795mV nominal reference enables precise regulation. |
| RT (Pin 17) | Oscillator Frequency Programming | Resistor to PGND sets switching frequency from 400kHz to 2MHz (e.g., 76.8kΩ = 1MHz). |
| RUN (Pin 18) | Enable & UVLO Threshold Input | Enables IC when >1.205V; hysteresis ensures clean start-up; supports custom input undervoltage lockout. |
| MPPC (Pin 15) | Maximum Power Point Control Setpoint | Connects to VIN/GND divider to regulate input voltage at 798mV; disables MPPC when tied to VCC. |
| PWM/SYNC (Pin 28) | Mode Control & Clock Sync Input | High = forced PWM; low = Burst Mode; external clock sync up to 2MHz with ≥100ns pulse width. |
| BST1 (Pin 26) | SW1 Gate Driver Bootstrap | Must connect 0.1µF capacitor between BST1 and SW1 to generate high-side gate drive rail. |
| BST2 (Pin 3) | SW2 Gate Driver Bootstrap | Must connect 0.1µF capacitor between BST2 and SW2 to generate high-side gate drive rail. |
| PVIN (Pins 22, 23) | Main Input Power Path | Connects to input source; requires ≥10µF low-ESR capacitor to PGND for stability. |
| PVOUT (Pins 6, 7) | Main Output Power Path | Delivers regulated output; requires ≥10µF low-ESR capacitor to PGND for ripple suppression. |
| SW1 (Pins 21, 24) | High-Side Buck Switch Node | Connects to one side of inductor; carries full load current in buck mode. |
| SW2 (Pins 5, 8) | High-Side Boost Switch Node | Connects to same inductor node as SW1; carries full load current in boost mode. |
| PGOOD (Pin 10) | Open-Drain Power-Good Indicator | Pulls low when FB drops >8% below regulation; requires external pull-up for system monitoring. |
| VC (Pin 13) | Error Amplifier Output | Requires external RC compensation network to SGND for loop stability. |
| SGND (Pin 14) | Signal Ground Reference | Separate from PGND; connects only to analog control circuitry ground return path. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage for continuous operation of the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF?
The LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF can operate continuously with input voltages as low as 250mV after start-up, provided the VCC rail is maintained-typically achieved by bootstrapping VCC from the output or an auxiliary supply. This capability enables full energy extraction from supercapacitors and depleted batteries, a key differentiator versus standard buck-boost ICs.
Does the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF support external clock synchronization?
Yes, the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the PWM/SYNC pin, accepting input clocks up to 2MHz with a minimum pulse width of 100ns. The internal PLL locks to the external clock only if it exceeds the RT-programmed frequency, making it ideal for noise-sensitive applications like RF transceivers where switching harmonics must align with system timing domains.
How does the Maximum Power Point Control (MPPC) function work in the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF?
The MPPC function in the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF regulates the input voltage at 798mV by adjusting the converter's duty cycle. A resistor divider from VIN to GND connects to the MPPC pin to set the target input voltage; the IC then dynamically controls power transfer to maintain that voltage-enabling optimal power extraction from photovoltaic panels or supercapacitors without external MPPT controllers.
What thermal considerations apply to the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF in its 28-lead TSSOP package?
The LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF in the 28-lead TSSOP package has a θJA of 21°C/W and requires the exposed PGND pad (Pin 29) to be soldered to a minimum 200mm² copper area on the PCB for rated thermal performance. At 5A output and 12V input/output, junction temperature rise exceeds 60°C without adequate copper; thermal vias under the pad and internal ground planes are strongly recommended for sustained operation above 3A.
Can the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF operate in both buck and boost modes simultaneously?
No-the LTC3119MPFE#TRPBF operates in either buck or boost mode at any instant, but its 4-switch architecture enables seamless, transient-free transitions between them as input or load conditions change. When VIN crosses VOUT, the control loop automatically adjusts switch timing without discontinuity in inductor current or output voltage, eliminating the need for external mode-selection logic or complex compensation.
