Product details
Overview
LTC3407AIDD#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel synchronous step-down DC/DC converter optimized for low-power portable applications. It operates from 2.5V to 5.5V input, delivers up to 600mA per channel, switches at a fixed 1.5MHz frequency, and supports adjustable output voltages from 0.6V to 5V - enabling compact designs with 2.2μH inductors and 10μF ceramic capacitors. Its internal 0.35Ω P-channel and 0.30Ω N-channel MOSFETs eliminate external Schottky diodes.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3407AIDD#PBF datasheet, LTC3407AIDD#PBF pinout, LTC3407AIDD#PBF application, or LTC3407AIDD#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-output burst-mode efficiency (96% peak), 40μA quiescent current, 100% duty-cycle dropout operation, Power-On Reset (POR) output, and MODE/SYNC pin for noise-efficiency trade-off or external clock synchronization.
Technical Context
The LTC3407AIDD#PBF implements a constant-frequency current-mode control architecture with shared 1.5MHz oscillator across both channels, ensuring in-phase switching and predictable EMI behavior. Each channel features independent RUN/SS enable/soft-start inputs, dedicated VFB pins referenced to a precision 0.6V internal bandgap, and overvoltage/undervoltage detection feeding a common open-drain POR output.
Its MODE/SYNC pin serves three functions: selecting Burst Mode® (for <40μA IQ at light load) or Pulse Skip Mode (for lowest output ripple), and synchronizing the oscillator to an external clock source. The device enters 100% duty-cycle dropout when VIN approaches VOUT, with P-channel MOSFETs remaining fully enhanced - critical for battery-powered systems operating near end-of-discharge voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, or dual-cell alkaline/NiMH battery inputs without pre-regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz (typ) - enables use of sub-3mm-height inductors (e.g., 2.2μH) and small ceramic capacitors, reducing board area and height. |
| Output Current per Channel | 600mA continuous - sufficient for powering core logic, memory, or RF ICs in handheld devices. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 0.6V ±12mV (–40°C to 125°C) - sets output accuracy and stability across industrial temperature range. |
| Quiescent Current | 40μA total (both channels active) - extends battery life in always-on or low-duty-cycle monitoring systems. |
| Shutdown Current | <1μA - ensures negligible drain during system sleep or storage modes. |
| Peak Switch RDS(ON) | 0.35Ω (P-ch top), 0.30Ω (N-ch bottom) - minimizes conduction loss and thermal rise at full load, eliminating need for external diodes. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC3407AIDD#PBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 10-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic DFN package with exposed power ground pad (Pin 11). This package supports high-power-density layouts and efficient PCB heat sinking via the exposed pad soldered directly to GND plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VFB1 (Pin 1) | Channel 1 feedback input | Connects to resistor divider on VOUT1; regulates output by comparing divided voltage to 0.6V reference. |
| RUN/SS1 (Pin 2) | Channel 1 enable & soft-start | Pull ≥1.5V to enable; pull ≤0.3V to shut down; add RC network for controlled voltage ramp-up. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main power input | Supplies both channels; requires local 10μF ceramic decoupling close to pin for stable high-frequency operation. |
| SW1 (Pin 4) | Channel 1 switch node | Connects to inductor; swings between VIN and GND; layout must minimize loop area to reduce EMI. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Analog & power ground | Reference for all signals; tie to PCB ground plane; connect CIN/COUT negative terminals here. |
| MODE/SYNC (Pin 6) | Mode selection & sync input | Tie to VIN for Burst Mode (high efficiency); tie to GND for Pulse Skip (low ripple); apply external clock for synchronization. |
| SW2 (Pin 7) | Channel 2 switch node | Identical function to SW1; independent inductor connection required for each channel. |
| POR (Pin 8) | Power-On Reset output | Open-drain signal pulled low if either VOUT deviates >±8.5%; releases after ~44ms (pulse skip) or variable delay (burst). |
| RUN/SS2 (Pin 9) | Channel 2 enable & soft-start | Functionally identical to RUN/SS1; allows independent sequencing or shutdown of second regulator. |
| VFB2 (Pin 10) | Channel 2 feedback input | Same role as VFB1; supports independent output voltage setting for dual-rail systems (e.g., 1.8V + 2.5V). |
| PGND (Pin 11) | Exposed pad / power ground | Mandatory connection to PCB GND plane; primary thermal path and low-impedance return for high-current switch paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent regulators | Enables simultaneous generation of two different output voltages (e.g., 1.8V core + 2.5V I/O) from single input, reducing BOM count and board space. |
| Burst Mode® operation | Reduces total quiescent current to 40μA while maintaining regulation - ideal for battery-backed real-time clocks or sensor wake-up circuits. |
| 100% duty-cycle dropout | Allows uninterrupted operation as input voltage drops to within ~200mV of output, extending usable battery capacity in portable systems. |
| Integrated MOSFETs with low RDS(ON) | Eliminates external Schottky diodes and associated footprint/cost; improves efficiency by 3–5% versus discrete solutions at 600mA. |
| Power-On Reset (POR) output | Provides system-level reset signaling when either output falls outside ±8.5% tolerance - simplifies microcontroller startup sequencing and fault detection. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC3407AIDD#PBF?
The LTC3407AIDD#PBF is rated for operation from –40°C to +125°C (ambient), making it suitable for industrial and automotive under-hood applications. This grade is confirmed by the "I" suffix in the part number and is guaranteed over the full range, unlike the "E" grade (–40°C to +85°C) which is characterized but not fully guaranteed.
Does the LTC3407AIDD#PBF require external Schottky diodes?
No, the LTC3407AIDD#PBF does not require external Schottky diodes. It integrates synchronous P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs with RDS(ON) of 0.35Ω and 0.30Ω respectively, enabling high-efficiency operation without external rectification components.
How does the MODE/SYNC pin affect LTC3407AIDD#PBF operation?
The MODE/SYNC pin on the LTC3407AIDD#PBF selects between Burst Mode® (tie to VIN for highest light-load efficiency, IQ = 40μA) and Pulse Skip Mode (tie to GND for lowest output ripple). It also accepts an external clock signal to synchronize switching frequency - preventing beat frequencies in multi-regulator systems.
What is the purpose of the POR pin on the LTC3407AIDD#PBF?
The POR (Power-On Reset) pin on the LTC3407AIDD#PBF is an open-drain output that remains low until both output voltages stabilize within ±8.5% of their target values, then asserts high after ~44ms (in Pulse Skip Mode). It provides system-level reset signaling for microcontrollers and FPGAs during power-up or brownout recovery.
Can the LTC3407AIDD#PBF operate in 100% duty cycle dropout mode?
Yes, the LTC3407AIDD#PBF supports 100% duty cycle operation: when VIN drops near VOUT, the P-channel MOSFET remains fully enhanced, allowing the output to track the input minus conduction losses. This extends usable battery life in portable systems operating down to ~2.7V input for a 2.5V output.
