Product details
Overview
LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC converter optimized for single-cell Li-Ion battery-powered portable electronics. It delivers up to 300mA output current with 96% peak efficiency, operates from 2.5V to 5.5V input, uses constant-frequency current-mode control at 1.5MHz, and supports low dropout via 100% duty cycle operation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF pinout, LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF application, or LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 20µA operating quiescent current, ±2% output voltage accuracy, internal P/N-channel MOSFETs eliminating external Schottky diodes, 0.8V feedback reference enabling sub-1V outputs, and ThinSOT-6 package compatibility with space-constrained handheld designs.
Technical Context
The LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF implements a constant-frequency, current-mode buck architecture with integrated high-side P-channel and low-side N-channel MOSFETs. Its peak inductor current is controlled by the error amplifier output, and slope compensation prevents subharmonic oscillation above 40% duty cycle without reducing maximum peak current - enabled by a proprietary compensation scheme.
It supports two operating modes: Burst Mode (MODE = GND) for ultra-low 20µA quiescent current at light loads, and pulse-skipping mode (MODE = VIN) for lower output ripple. Shutdown draws <1µA, and overtemperature protection disables switching above ~150°C. The 0.8V reference allows precise output programming via external resistor divider.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports full discharge range of single Li-Ion cells (2.7V–4.2V typical). |
| Output Current | 300mA max at VIN = 3V - sufficient for baseband processors, RF transceivers, and display drivers in portable devices. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz (typ) - enables use of compact 4.7µH inductors and ceramic capacitors without audible noise. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.8V ±2% - permits accurate output voltages down to 0.8V (e.g., 1.3V, 1.5V, 1.8V) using standard resistor ratios. |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA in operation, <1µA in shutdown - extends battery runtime in standby and sleep states. |
| Efficiency Peak | 96% - achieved at mid-load with 3.6V input and 1.8V output, minimizing thermal stress in thin-profile enclosures. |
| Duty Cycle Range | 0% to 100% - maintains regulation during battery droop; output follows VIN minus RDS(ON) × IOUT in dropout. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TSOT-23-6 (ThinSOT™), 1mm height, 0.95mm pitch, RoHS-compliant, moisture-sensitive level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (Pin 1) | Enable/disable control input | Logic-high (>1.5V) enables regulator; logic-low (<0.3V) forces shutdown with <1µA supply current - must not float. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power and signal reference | Primary ground return for IC core, power switches, and feedback network - requires low-inductance connection to power plane. |
| SW (Pin 3) | Switch node | Connection point for external inductor; carries high di/dt square-wave voltage (0V to VIN); critical for EMI and layout integrity. |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Main power input | Supplies internal circuitry and power switches; requires local 2.2µF ceramic decoupling directly to GND (Pin 2). |
| VFB (Pin 5) | Feedback input | Monitors resistive divider output; compares to 0.8V reference to regulate VOUT - sensitive to noise; route away from SW. |
| MODE (Pin 6) | Operating mode select | GND selects Burst Mode (low IQ); VIN selects pulse-skipping mode (lower ripple) - must not float. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Integrated P- and N-channel MOSFETs eliminate external Schottky diode, increasing efficiency by ~5–10% and reducing BOM count. |
| Burst Mode operation | Maintains 20µA quiescent current across load range 10µA–25mA, optimizing battery life in intermittent-activity devices like remote controls or sensors. |
| 100% duty cycle capability | Enables dropout operation down to VIN ≈ VOUT + (RDS(ON)_P × IOUT), extending usable battery voltage range by ~150mV vs non-dropout regulators. |
| Internal slope compensation | Patent-pending scheme preserves full 625mA peak inductor current capability even at >40% duty cycle - no derating required. |
| Overvoltage lockout | Triggers at VOUT > VFB + 20–80mV, disabling main switch until fault clears - protects downstream 1.8V/2.5V logic from transient overshoot. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRVR | Fixed 1.8V output; 2.05V–6.0V input; 400mA rating; 3.6MHz switching; requires external compensation. | Not adjustable - unsuitable for multi-rail systems requiring 1.3V/1.5V/2.5V; higher frequency increases EMI filtering complexity. | Select only if fixed 1.8V output suffices and board space allows smaller inductor; verify stability with ceramic output caps. |
| MAX17222ELT+T | 0.7V–5.5V input; 300mA; 1.2MHz; 1.6µA IQ in shutdown; no MODE pin - auto-burst mode only. | Lacks manual MODE control; lower 1.6µA shutdown current but higher 25µA operating IQ vs LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF's 20µA. | Prefer when absolute lowest shutdown IQ is critical and Burst Mode-only operation is acceptable; verify thermal performance at 300mA. |
Compared with TPS62231DRVR and MAX17222ELT+T, the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF offers adjustable output via resistor divider, user-selectable Burst/Pulse-Skipping modes, and superior 20µA operating IQ - making it optimal for multi-voltage, battery-sensitive portable designs where flexibility and efficiency balance are essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF?
The LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF delivers up to 300mA output current when VIN = 3V. At lower input voltages (e.g., 2.7V), maximum output current decreases due to increased RDS(ON) of the internal P-channel MOSFET - see Figure 2 in the datasheet for derating curves. Peak inductor current capability is 625mA (typ), supporting transient loads beyond steady-state rating.
Does the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF require an external Schottky diode?
No, the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF does not require an external Schottky diode. It integrates both a P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side MOSFET to implement synchronous rectification, eliminating conduction losses and improving efficiency by 5–10% compared to diode-based buck converters.
How is the output voltage set on the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF?
The output voltage of the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF is set using an external resistive divider connected between VOUT, VFB, and GND. The formula is VOUT = 0.8V × (1 + R1/R2), where R2 connects to VFB and GND, and R1 connects to VOUT and VFB. The 0.8V reference enables precise outputs from 0.8V to 5.5V.
What are the key differences between Burst Mode and pulse-skipping mode on the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF?
Burst Mode (MODE = GND) minimizes quiescent current to 20µA at light loads by intermittently activating switching cycles, but increases output ripple. Pulse-skipping mode (MODE = VIN) maintains constant 1.5MHz frequency, yielding lower ripple and less EMI - ideal for noise-sensitive audio circuits - though IQ rises to ~35µA at no load.
Is the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF compatible with all-ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, the LTC3405ES6#TRMPBF supports all-ceramic output capacitors in pulse-skipping mode when VIN ≤ 4.2V and COUT ≥ 4.7µF (X5R/X7R dielectric). For Burst Mode or wider VIN ranges, stability requires either a tantalum capacitor (100–200mΩ ESR) or feedforward compensation from the SW node to VFB.
