Product details
Overview
LTC3374AHFE#PBF from Analog Devices is an 8-channel synchronous buck DC/DC power supply IC with independent 2.25V–5.5V input supplies per channel, ±1% VFB accuracy for Buck 1, 1MHz–3MHz programmable switching frequency, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use in multirail power systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3374AHFE#PBF datasheet, LTC3374AHFE#PBF pinout, LTC3374AHFE#PBF application, or LTC3374AHFE#PBF equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (38-lead TSSOP), master/slave configuration support up to 4A, die temperature monitoring, overvoltage indication, and precise enable thresholds for autonomous sequencing.
Technical Context
The LTC3374AHFE#PBF integrates eight independent 1A synchronous buck regulators sharing a common oscillator and MODE-controlled operating mode (Burst or forced continuous). Each channel supports independent VIN, FB, SW, and EN pins, enabling flexible rail assignment and phase-shifted operation (90° interleaving) to reduce input ripple.
It features a programmable RT resistor interface for oscillator tuning, SYNC pin for external clock synchronization, PGOOD_ALL open-drain status output, and TEMP pin delivering 220mV at 25°C with 7mV/°C slope for die temperature monitoring - all within a thermally enhanced 38-lead exposed-pad TSSOP package rated for –40°C to +150°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.25V to 5.5V per buck channel - supports diverse rail inputs including 3.3V, 5V, and low-voltage battery sources. |
| Output Current Capability | Up to 1A per channel; up to 4A via master/slave parallel configuration using shared inductor - enables scalable current delivery without redesigning magnetics. |
| Feedback Accuracy | ±1% for Buck 1 (VFB = 800mV typ); ±1.6% for Bucks 2–8 - ensures tight regulation critical for FPGA, ASIC, and processor core rails. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 1MHz to 3MHz programmable via RT resistor; default 2MHz internal clock - allows EMI optimization and inductor size reduction. |
| Overvoltage Detection | 107.5% ±1.5% of regulated VOUT with 3% hysteresis - provides fast fault response to prevent downstream component damage. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +150°C junction - qualified for under-hood automotive applications and high-ambient industrial environments. |
| Package Type | 38-lead plastic TSSOP with exposed pad - offers proven manufacturability and thermal performance (θJA = 25°C/W). |
Pinout & Package
Package: 38-lead plastic TSSOP with exposed GND pad (Pin 39), rated for –40°C to +150°C operation and θJA = 25°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN1–EN8 | Active-high enable inputs | Independent control of each buck regulator; precision thresholds (e.g., EN1 rising = 400mV typ) enable robust power-up sequencing without external supervisors. |
| FB1–FB8 | Feedback inputs | Resistor-divider nodes for output voltage setting; FB2–FB8 tied to respective VIN pins enable master/slave current combining (up to 4A). |
| VIN1–VIN8 | Independent input supplies | Each accepts 2.25V–5.5V; shorting adjacent VINs (e.g., VIN2 to VIN1) configures parallel operation while maintaining per-rail input isolation. |
| SW1–SW8 | Switch node outputs | Connect to external inductors; phase-shifted 90° switching minimizes input capacitor RMS current and reduces conducted EMI. |
| PGOOD_ALL | Open-drain system status | Asserts low if any enabled buck's output falls below 97% or exceeds 109% of target - simplifies system-level fault detection with single-wire monitoring. |
| TEMP | Digital die temperature monitor | Outputs 220mV at 25°C with 7mV/°C slope; enables real-time thermal margining and overtemperature warning before OT shutdown at 170°C. |
| MODE | Global operating mode select | Low = Burst Mode for light-load efficiency; high = forced continuous mode for low-noise, constant-frequency operation - no per-channel mode control required. |
| RT / SYNC | Oscillator programming interface | RT sets frequency via resistor (1–3MHz); SYNC accepts external clock (1–3MHz) with automatic slope compensation - supports synchronized multi-IC designs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Eight independent 1A buck regulators | Enables compact, discrete multirail power architecture without external controllers or complex PMIC firmware. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current achievable with LTC3374AHFE#PBF?
The LTC3374AHFE#PBF supports up to 1A per individual buck channel. By configuring master/slave combinations - such as pairing Buck 1 with Buck 2, Buck 3 with Buck 4, etc. - it achieves up to 4A per combined output using a single inductor. The datasheet confirms 4A capability with L = 1.0µH and DCR = 8mΩ, validated across temperature and input voltage ranges.
Does LTC3374AHFE#PBF support synchronization to an external clock?
Yes, the LTC3374AHFE#PBF supports external clock synchronization via its SYNC pin. When driven with a clean 1MHz–3MHz square wave (tLOW/tHIGH > 40ns), all eight buck regulators lock to the applied frequency, and internal slope compensation automatically adapts - ensuring stable operation in noise-sensitive or multi-IC synchronized systems.
How does the TEMP pin on LTC3374AHFE#PBF function in practice?
The TEMP pin on LTC3374AHFE#PBF outputs an analog voltage of 220mV at 25°C with a nominal slope of 7mV/°C, directly tracking die temperature. This allows real-time thermal monitoring without external sensors; tying TEMP to VCC disables the monitor and saves ~12µA of VCC quiescent current when thermal visibility is not needed.
What is the purpose of the PGOOD_ALL pin on LTC3374AHFE#PBF?
The PGOOD_ALL pin on LTC3374AHFE#PBF is an open-drain output that asserts LOW whenever the regulated output voltage of any enabled buck falls below 97% (Buck 1) or 94% (Bucks 2–8) of target, or rises above 109% (OV threshold). It remains LOW when all bucks are disabled - enabling simple system-level power-good validation with a single pull-up resistor.
Can LTC3374AHFE#PBF be used in forced continuous mode?
Yes, LTC3374AHFE#PBF operates in forced continuous mode when the MODE pin is held high. This eliminates low-load frequency variation and output voltage ripple associated with Burst Mode, making it ideal for noise-sensitive applications like high-speed ADCs or RF circuitry where consistent switching behavior is mandatory.
