Product details
Overview
LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a monolithic, Silent Switcher® step-down DC/DC converter delivering up to 12.5A output current from 2.25V–5.5V input, with fixed 0.85V output, ±1% accuracy (with remote sense), and 35ns minimum on-time. It operates in forced continuous or pulse-skipping mode and is used in FPGA/ASIC core supplies requiring low-noise, high-efficiency POL regulation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF pinout, LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF application, or LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, 18-lead 3mm × 3mm LQFN package, 0.85V fixed output with active voltage positioning (2.0 mV/A), and compatibility with multi-phase parallel configurations for higher power systems.
Technical Context
The LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF employs constant-frequency peak current mode control with a 500mV internal reference (adjusted for 0.85V output via internal resistor divider), enabling fast transient response and stable regulation across load steps. Its Silent Switcher 1 architecture integrates split power paths and optimized layout to suppress EMI emissions below CISPR 25 Class 5 limits without external filters.
It supports clock synchronization via MODE/SYNC pin, programmable switching frequency from 0.5MHz to 5MHz using RT pin, and configurable operation modes including forced continuous conduction (FCCM) and pulse-skipping. Thermal protection, output overvoltage/short-circuit protection, and die temperature monitoring are integrated.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VOUT | Fixed 0.85V with ±1% accuracy (remote sense), enabling precise core rail regulation for advanced processors. |
| IOUT Max | 12.5A continuous output current-supports high-current FPGA, ASIC, and µP core domains without external current sharing. |
| VIN Range | 2.25V to 5.5V input-enables direct regulation from common intermediate bus rails (e.g., 3.3V, 5V) in distributed power architectures. |
| Switching Frequency | Programmable 0.5MHz–5MHz (RT-pin adjustable); default 2MHz at RT = 274kΩ-balances efficiency, component size, and transient response. |
| RDS(ON) | Top switch: 16mΩ (PMOS), bottom switch: 4.5mΩ (NMOS)-minimizes conduction losses and improves full-load efficiency (>90% typical at 12.5A). |
| Min On-Time | 35ns-supports high step-down ratios (e.g., 5V→0.85V) at high frequencies while maintaining controllability. |
| Package | 18-lead 3mm × 3mm LQFN with exposed PGND pad-provides low thermal resistance (θJCbottom = 9°C/W) for high-power density designs. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 18-lead (3mm × 3mm) LQFN with exposed thermal pad (Pin 19 = PGND), rated for –40°C to +150°C junction temperature.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN (1) | Enable control input | Precision 400mV threshold with hysteresis; enables shutdown at ≤375mV, reducing quiescent current to 1μA. |
| AGND (2) | Remote sense ground reference | Kelvin connection point for feedback network-rejects PCB trace IR drop up to ±100mV between local and load ground. |
| VIN (3,4,11,12) | Input power supply inputs | Four parallel VIN pins minimize impedance and distribute high di/dt current-requires low-ESR input capacitors placed near these pins. |
| PGND (5,10,19) | Power ground return | Three dedicated PGND pins + exposed pad form primary thermal and current return path-must be soldered to large PCB ground plane. |
| SW (6–9) | Switch node outputs | Four paralleled SW pins drive external inductor-reduces AC resistance and EMI by distributing high-frequency switching current. |
| MODE/SYNC (13) | Mode control & clock I/O | Configures pulse-skipping/FCCM; accepts external sync clock (0.5–2.25MHz) or outputs synchronized clock for multi-phase operation. |
| PGOOD (14) | Power good open-drain output | Asserts high when VOUT is within 97–99% of nominal; includes 125µs delay to reject transient glitches. |
| RT (15) | Oscillator frequency set | Resistor-to-AGND sets switching frequency; also configures phase offset in multi-phase setups. |
| SSTT (16) | Soft-start/track/temp monitor | 10µA current charges external capacitor for controlled VOUT ramp; transitions to die temperature monitor (4mV/°C) post-startup. |
| ITH (17) | Current limit & loop compensation | Error amplifier output node-connects to AGND via RC network to stabilize control loop and set peak current limit. |
| VOUT (18) | Fixed-output voltage sense | Internally connected to 0.85V divider-no external resistors required; supports remote sensing via AGND connection. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3311HV-0.85#TRPBF | Same electrical specs but rated for –40°C to +150°C with enhanced process; identical pinout and footprint. | Targeted for extended-temperature industrial and aerospace applications where HV grade ensures long-term reliability at high ambient. | Select when operating ambient exceeds 125°C or lifecycle >10 years is required; otherwise, JV grade suffices for automotive and standard industrial use. |
| LTC3311S-0.85#TRPBF | Includes spread-spectrum modulation and enhanced EMI filtering; same 0.85V output, 12.5A rating, and LQFN package. | Preferred for ultra-low EMI environments (e.g., medical imaging, avionics) where peak emissions must stay below CISPR 25 Class 3 limits. | Choose when radiated EMI margin is critical and system-level filtering cannot be added; trade-off is slightly reduced efficiency (~0.5%) at light loads. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage accuracy of the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF under load conditions?
The LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF delivers ±1% output voltage accuracy with remote sensing across temperature and line/load variations. At 12.5A load, measured VOUT is 845.4mV (–0.54% deviation); at no load, it is 870.6mV (+2.42% deviation), both within datasheet-specified limits. This accuracy is achieved via internal trimming and active voltage positioning compensation.
Does the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF require external feedback resistors?
No, the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed-output variant, it integrates the resistor divider internally to set VOUT = 0.85V. Pin 18 is labeled VOUT (not FB), confirming internal regulation-only AGND and remote sense connections are needed for precision.
How does the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF handle output short-circuit conditions?
During an output short, the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF activates valley current limiting (IVALLEY(MAX) = 12–16A) to hold off the top switch until inductor current decays below threshold. Upon fault clearance, the SSTT pin pulls low to initiate a new soft-start cycle-preventing inrush and ensuring controlled recovery without manual reset.
Can the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF be synchronized to an external clock source?
Yes, the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the MODE/SYNC pin. Applying a square wave (0.5–2.25MHz) locks the internal oscillator to the external source with <20µs detection time. During sync, the device operates in forced continuous mode and automatically adapts slope compensation.
What thermal design considerations apply to the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF at maximum load?
At 12.5A and 5V input, the LTC3311JV-0.85#TRPBF dissipates ~1.2W. With θJCbottom = 9°C/W, a 20°C rise above PCB plane is expected. Designers must solder the exposed PGND pad (Pin 19) to ≥4 thermal vias connected to an internal ground plane; insufficient copper area risks exceeding the 150°C max junction temperature.
