Product details
Overview
LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator in TSOT-23-5 package, delivering up to 600mA output current at 1.5V fixed output with 1.5MHz constant-frequency current-mode control. It operates from 2.5V to 5.5V input, achieves up to 96% efficiency, supports 100% duty cycle for low-dropout operation, and draws only 300µA quiescent current - ideal for single-cell Li-ion portable systems such as digital cameras and MP3 players.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF pinout, LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF application, or LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 1.5V output, 1.5MHz switching frequency enabling compact 2.2µH inductors, internal synchronous MOSFETs eliminating external Schottky diodes, ±1.5% output voltage accuracy over temperature, and thermal shutdown protection.
Technical Context
The LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF implements a constant-frequency, peak-current-mode control architecture with internal P-channel main and N-channel synchronous switches. Its oscillator is factory-trimmed to 1.5MHz (±20%), enabling stable regulation with minimal external components while supporting pulse-skipping mode at light loads to maintain high efficiency down to 10µA output current.
Feedback is internally divided for the fixed 1.5V output (VFB = 0.6V reference), and the RUN pin provides precise enable/disable control with 0.3V to 1.5V threshold. Overvoltage lockout triggers at +7.8% above nominal output (ΔVOVL = 11.7mV), and overtemperature protection disables both switches when junction temperature exceeds ~150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5V ±1.5% (1.455V–1.545V) - ensures stable core logic supply for low-voltage microcontrollers and ASICs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - compatible with single Li-ion (2.7–4.2V) and regulated 3.3V/5V rails without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz (typ), 1.2–1.8MHz (min/max) - allows use of small 2.2µH surface-mount inductors and ceramic capacitors under 1206 size. |
| Max Output Current | 600mA continuous - sufficient for powering DSPs, RF transceivers, and sensor interfaces in handheld devices. |
| Quiescent Current | 300µA (no load), <1µA in shutdown - extends battery runtime in standby modes of portable instrumentation. |
| Efficiency | Up to 96% at 3VIN/1.5VOUT/600mA - minimizes thermal rise in confined PCB areas and reduces heat sink requirements. |
| Duty Cycle Range | 0% to 100% - enables dropout operation down to VIN ≈ VOUT + ILOAD × RDS(ON), critical for end-of-battery-life performance. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-lead TSOT-23 (ThinSOT™), 1mm profile, 0.95mm × 2.9mm footprint - optimized for space-constrained portable PCB layouts with thermal pad omitted (θJA = 250°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (Pin 1) | Enable control input | Active-high logic: >1.5V enables regulation; <0.3V forces shutdown (<1µA IQ); must not float. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power and signal ground reference | Primary return path for VIN, SW, and feedback; requires low-inductance connection to power plane. |
| SW (Pin 3) | Switch node | Drain connection of internal P- and N-channel MOSFETs; high dv/dt node requiring short, wide trace routing. |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Main input supply | Accepts 2.5–5.5V; must be decoupled within 2mm of pin using ≥2.2µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor. |
| VOUT (Pin 5) | Fixed-output feedback node | Internally connected to 1.5V divider; serves as output voltage sense point - connect directly to (+) terminal of COUT. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode - reduces BOM count, improves efficiency by 5–10% vs. asynchronous designs at medium loads. |
| 100% duty cycle operation | Enables VIN down to ~1.55V at 600mA (RDS(ON) ≈ 0.5Ω) - extends usable battery range beyond conventional buck limits. |
| Pulse-skipping mode | Maintains regulation at light loads (<10mA) with low output ripple - avoids audible noise and preserves efficiency in sleep states. |
| Internal 0.6V reference | Supports accurate fixed 1.5V output (VOUT = 0.6V × (1 + R1/R2)) with ±0.25% initial tolerance and ±0.04%/°C line regulation. |
| Overvoltage lockout | Disables switching if output exceeds 1.5V + 11.7mV - protects downstream 1.5V logic from transient overvoltage damage. |

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 1.5V output, 3MHz switching, 400mA max, 17µA quiescent current - higher frequency but lower current rating and no 100% duty cycle. | Better suited for ultra-low-IQ always-on rails; unsuitable for 600mA peak loads or deep-dropout Li-ion operation. | Select only if system prioritizes ultra-low standby current over peak load capability and dropout margin. |
| RT8059GJ6 | Fixed 1.5V output, 1.5MHz, 600mA, 40µA IQ, but lacks overvoltage lockout and has ±2% output tolerance. | Lower cost alternative for non-safety-critical consumer applications where 1.47–1.53V tolerance is acceptable. | Choose when BOM cost is primary constraint and OVP is implemented externally or not required. |
Compared with TPS62231DRVR and RT8059GJ6, the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF uniquely combines 600mA capability, 100% duty cycle, integrated OVP, and ±1.5% output accuracy - making it the only option qualified for high-reliability portable systems requiring full battery-voltage-range operation without external supervision.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF?
The absolute maximum input voltage for the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF is 6V, but the recommended operating range is 2.5V to 5.5V. Exceeding 6V may cause permanent damage to the internal P-channel MOSFET. The device is optimized for single Li-ion battery inputs (2.7V–4.2V), and operation at 5.5V is supported with proper thermal design due to increased RDS(ON) conduction loss.
Does the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF require an external Schottky diode?
No, the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF does not require an external Schottky diode because it integrates both a P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side synchronous MOSFET. This architecture eliminates reverse recovery losses and improves efficiency by 5–10% compared to asynchronous buck converters - a key advantage explicitly stated in the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF datasheet.
What is the output voltage accuracy of the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF over temperature?
The LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF guarantees output voltage accuracy of ±1.5% over the full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. At 25°C, the typical output is 1.500V with min/max bounds of 1.455V and 1.545V. This accuracy is maintained by the internal 0.6V reference with ±0.04%/V line regulation and ±0.0025V/°C temperature coefficient.
Can the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF operate in dropout mode, and what is the minimum input voltage at 600mA load?
Yes, the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF supports 100% duty cycle dropout operation. At 600mA and 25°C, the minimum functional input voltage is approximately 1.55V (1.5V + 600mA × 0.083Ω), based on typical RDS(ON) of the P-channel switch. However, thermal derating applies: at 85°C ambient, RDS(ON) rises to ~0.52Ω, raising the practical dropout voltage to ~1.81V - confirmed in the "Dropout Operation" section of the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF datasheet.
Is the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the LTC3406BES5-1.5#TRPBF is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per Analog Devices' material declarations. The TSOT-23-5 package uses lead-free matte tin plating, and the device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) - suitable for standard reflow soldering without preconditioning. Full compliance documentation is available in Analog Devices' official product change notices.
