Product details
Overview
LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF from Analog Devices is a monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC converter delivering up to 4A output at 500mV–VIN, operating from 2.25V–5.5V input with 6.6MHz default switching frequency, 22ns minimum on-time, and ±1% VFB accuracy over temperature. It integrates 8mΩ NMOS and 31mΩ PMOS power switches, supports forced continuous, pulse-skipping, and low-ripple Burst Mode operation, and targets compact POL supplies in automotive infotainment and ADAS subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF pinout, LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF application, or LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualified –40°C to +150°C junction temperature rating, Silent Switcher® EMI reduction, 100% duty cycle dropout capability, and compatibility with 2mm × 2mm LQFN layout constraints for space-constrained automotive modules.
Technical Context
The LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF uses constant-frequency peak current mode control with internal compensation, enabling fast transient response without external loop components. Its 22ns minimum on-time supports high VIN/VOUT ratios (e.g., 5.5V→1.8V at 6.6MHz), while programmable 3–10MHz switching via RT resistor or MODE/SYNC synchronization allows optimization of efficiency vs. size trade-offs.
Three operating modes-forced continuous (fixed-frequency, reverse inductor current allowed), pulse-skipping (light-load efficiency), and Burst Mode® (40µA IQ, low-ripple)-are selected via MODE/SYNC pin voltage level. Output protection includes overvoltage detection (107–114% VOUT threshold), short-circuit valley-current limiting (5.2A IVALLEYMAX), and thermal shutdown at 165°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 2.25V to 5.5V - Enables direct regulation from single-cell Li-ion or 3.3V/5V rails without pre-regulation. |
| VOUT Range | 0.5V to VIN - Supports core voltages down to 500mV for modern SoCs and FPGAs. |
| Max Output Current | 4A continuous - Delivers full rated load in thermally enhanced 2mm × 2mm LQFN with exposed PGND pad. |
| Switching Frequency | 3MHz to 10MHz (programmable) - Allows use of sub-220nH inductors and 10µF-class ceramic output caps. |
| Feedback Accuracy | ±1% over –40°C to +150°C - Ensures stable core voltage under automotive under-hood thermal stress. |
| IQ in Burst Mode | 40µA - Extends battery runtime in always-on automotive sensors and telematics modules. |
| Thermal Rating | Junction temp: –40°C to +150°C - Qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1, suitable for engine bay proximity mounting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 12-lead 2mm × 2mm × 0.74mm LQFN with exposed PGND pad (Pin 13), θJA = 51°C/W, optimized for automotive thermal cycling reliability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AGND (1) | Analog ground reference | Remote sense return for FB; must connect directly to output capacitor negative terminal to reject PCB IR drop. |
| EN (2) | Enable control input | 400mV precision threshold with hysteresis; enables sequencing from another rail's output via resistor divider. |
| VIN (3,8) | Main power input | Dual pins reduce trace inductance; require parallel low-ESR ceramic bypassing to PGND and AGND. |
| PGND (4,7,13) | Power ground return | Exposed pad (Pin 13) is primary thermal path; must be soldered to large PCB ground plane with ≥6 vias. |
| SW (5,6) | Switch node | Dual pins minimize switching loop area; connect together and route directly to inductor with shortest possible trace. |
| MODE/SYNC (9) | Mode selection & clock sync | Ground = pulse-skip; float = forced continuous; VIN = Burst Mode; external square wave = sync (3–10MHz). |
| RT (10) | Frequency programming | Resistor to AGND sets fSW; open = 6.6MHz default; tied to VIN = same default; ignored during external sync. |
| PGOOD (11) | Power good indicator | Open-drain output asserts low if VOUT < 97% or > 110% nominal, or during EN low/VIN UVLO/thermal fault. |
| FB (12) | Feedback input | Regulates to 500mV; connects to resistor divider between VOUT and AGND; phase-lead cap improves transient response. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS6286418RTER | 4A, 2.7–6V input, 1.8V fixed output, 4MHz default, no MODE/SYNC pin, lower thermal rating (–40°C to +125°C). | Lacks Burst Mode® and external sync; not AEC-Q100 qualified; limited to cabin-grade modules only. | Select when fixed 1.8V output suffices and automotive under-hood placement is unnecessary. |
| MP2145GJ-Z | 4A, 2.5–5.5V input, 500mV–5.5V adjustable, 2MHz default, no Silent Switcher®, higher EMI, 125°C max junction. | Higher radiated emissions require filtering; unsuitable for radar-adjacent layouts; lacks AEC-Q100 validation. | Choose for cost-sensitive non-automotive industrial POL where EMI is less constrained. |
Compared with TPS6286418RTER and MP2145GJ-Z, the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, Silent Switcher® EMI suppression, and programmable 3–10MHz operation-making it the only option for thermally demanding, noise-sensitive automotive domains requiring both reliability and spectral cleanliness.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF?
The LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF is rated for operation up to +150°C junction temperature and is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive Grade 1 applications. This rating is validated through extended lifetime testing and thermal characterization, making the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF suitable for under-hood placement near ECUs or radar modules where ambient temperatures exceed 105°C.
How does the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF achieve low EMI performance?
The LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF implements Silent Switcher® architecture, which uses symmetrical power switch layouts and integrated input capacitors to cancel magnetic field emissions. Measured radiated emissions are >20dB lower than conventional buck converters at 100MHz, enabling compliance with CISPR 25 Class 5 without additional shielding or filtering-critical for automotive radar and antenna proximity.
Can the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF operate with a 2.25V input supply?
Yes, the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF supports input voltages as low as 2.25V, enabling direct regulation from single-cell Li-ion batteries or degraded 3.3V rails. At this minimum VIN, the device maintains regulation down to 500mV output with full 4A capability, though RDS(ON) increases slightly-designers should verify thermal margin using θJA = 51°C/W and worst-case power loss calculations.
What are the three operating modes of the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF and how are they selected?
The LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF offers forced continuous mode (floating MODE/SYNC), pulse-skipping mode (MODE/SYNC grounded), and Burst Mode® operation (MODE/SYNC tied to VIN). Each mode optimizes efficiency vs. ripple vs. transient response: Burst Mode® achieves 40µA IQ, forced continuous ensures fixed-frequency low-noise output, and pulse-skipping balances light-load efficiency with moderate ripple-selected solely by MODE/SYNC pin voltage.
Is the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF pin-compatible with other members of the LTC3308 family?
Yes, the LTC3308BJV#TRMPBF shares identical 12-lead 2mm × 2mm LQFN pinout and footprint with all LTC3308x variants (e.g., LTC3308BEV#TRMPBF, LTC3308BIV#TRMPBF), enabling drop-in replacement across temperature grades. However, the J-grade part's higher 150°C junction rating and AEC-Q100 qualification require verification of thermal design margins when substituting into existing designs rated for lower temperature grades.
