Product details
Overview
LTC3407EDD#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel, synchronous step-down DC/DC converter IC designed for low-power portable systems. It delivers up to 600mA per channel from a 2.5V–5.5V input, operates at a fixed 1.5MHz switching frequency, integrates 0.35Ω P-channel and 0.30Ω N-channel MOSFETs, and supports adjustable output voltages from 0.6V to 5V - used in digital camera power rails and cellular phone baseband supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3407EDD#PBF datasheet, LTC3407EDD#PBF pinout, LTC3407EDD#PBF application, or LTC3407EDD#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-output burst-mode efficiency (96% peak), 40μA quiescent current, 100% duty-cycle dropout operation, and DFN-10 (3mm × 3mm) thermal performance with exposed PGND pad.
Technical Context
The LTC3407EDD#PBF employs a constant-frequency, current-mode control architecture with shared 1.5MHz oscillator across both channels, enabling in-phase switching and precise load transient response. Its error amplifier compares VFB to a 0.6V reference, modulating peak inductor current via ITH voltage to maintain regulation under line and load variations.
Two selectable light-load modes are implemented via the MODE/SYNC pin: Burst Mode® (for <1μA shutdown IQ and high efficiency at sub-10mA loads) and pulse-skipping mode (for low-output-ripple operation down to near-zero load). The integrated POR output asserts low when either output deviates >±8.5% from target and releases after 262,144 clock cycles (~175ms).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, and 3.3V/5V system rails without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz (typ) - enables use of compact 2.2μH inductors & 10μF ceramic capacitors, minimizing board area in space-constrained designs. |
| Output Current per Channel | 600mA continuous - sufficient for powering core logic, memory, and interface ICs in handheld devices. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 0.6V ±1.2% - sets output voltage via external resistor divider; enables precise 1.2V, 1.8V, 2.5V, or 3.3V rails with <±1% total error over temperature. |
| Quiescent Current | 40μA (total, both channels active) - extends battery runtime in always-on subsystems such as real-time clocks or sensor wake-up circuits. |
| Shutdown Current | <1μA - meets ultra-low-power requirements for deep-sleep states in portable electronics. |
| Internal Switch RDS(ON) | 0.35Ω (P-ch top), 0.30Ω (N-ch bottom) - eliminates need for external Schottky diodes and reduces conduction loss at 600mA load. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic DFN with exposed power ground pad (Pin 11). Thermal resistance θJA = 45°C/W; requires soldering exposed pad to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance and EMI reduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VFB1 (Pin 1) | Channel 1 feedback input | Connects to resistive divider output; regulates VOUT1 to 0.6V × (1 + R2/R1); high-impedance (30nA bias) minimizes divider current loss. |
| RUN1 (Pin 2) | Channel 1 enable control | Logic-high (≥1.5V) enables regulator 1; logic-low (≤0.3V) shuts down channel with <1μA leakage; must not float. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main power input | Supplies both channels; requires local 10μF ceramic decoupling to GND to suppress high-frequency switching noise. |
| SW1 (Pin 4) | Channel 1 switch node | Connects to inductor L1; swings between VIN and GND; layout critical - minimize trace length/loop area to reduce EMI. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Analog ground reference | Provides signal return for feedback and control circuitry; separate from PGND but tied to exposed pad on PCB. |
| MODE/SYNC (Pin 6) | Mode selection & sync input | Tie to VIN for Burst Mode® (high efficiency); tie to GND for pulse-skipping (low ripple); accept external 1.5MHz clock for synchronization. |
| SW2 (Pin 7) | Channel 2 switch node | Identical function to SW1; independent inductor connection required; avoid coupling between SW1/SW2 traces. |
| POR (Pin 8) | Power-on reset open-drain output | Pulls low if either VOUT1 or VOUT2 is outside ±8.5%; releases after ~175ms in regulation; drives external MCU reset or enable logic. |
| RUN2 (Pin 9) | Channel 2 enable control | Independent enable for second regulator; allows staggered power-up or dynamic channel disable for power sequencing. |
| VFB2 (Pin 10) | Channel 2 feedback input | Functionally identical to VFB1; supports independent output voltage setting for dual-rail applications (e.g., 1.8V + 2.5V). |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 11) | Power ground (PGND) | Mandatory connection to PCB ground plane; carries high-frequency return current from both switches; improves thermal dissipation and EMI performance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRYT | Single-channel, 600mA, 3MHz fixed-frequency buck; no Burst Mode®, only PWM/pulse-skipping; 0.45Ω internal switches. | Lacks dual-output capability; requires two devices for same functionality; higher switching frequency enables smaller inductors but increases gate drive loss. | Select when board space permits discrete dual-channel implementation and higher-frequency operation is preferred over integrated simplicity. |
| RT8059NGQW | Dual-channel, 600mA/channel, 1.5MHz, but uses external compensation and lacks integrated POR; 0.28Ω/0.25Ω RDS(ON). | No power-on reset output; requires external supervisor IC for system reset; higher efficiency at full load but less integrated feature set. | Choose when POR is handled elsewhere and design prioritizes maximum efficiency over integration and ease of use. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current per channel for the LTC3407EDD#PBF?
The LTC3407EDD#PBF delivers up to 600mA continuous output current per channel under typical conditions (TA = 25°C, 2.5V ≤ VIN ≤ 5.5V). Peak switch current limit is guaranteed at 0.75A to 1.25A, and thermal derating applies above 85°C ambient. The device maintains regulation at 100% duty cycle in dropout, supporting operation down to VIN ≈ VOUT + (ILOAD × 0.35Ω).
Does the LTC3407EDD#PBF require external Schottky diodes?
No, the LTC3407EDD#PBF does not require external Schottky diodes. It integrates synchronous P-channel (0.35Ω) and N-channel (0.30Ω) MOSFETs per channel, enabling high-efficiency operation without diode conduction losses. This internal synchronous rectification is confirmed in the datasheet's "No Schottky Diodes Required" feature list and functional block diagram.
How does the MODE/SYNC pin affect operation of the LTC3407EDD#PBF?
The MODE/SYNC pin on the LTC3407EDD#PBF serves dual functions: tying it to VIN selects Burst Mode® (maximizing light-load efficiency), tying it to GND selects pulse-skipping mode (minimizing output ripple), and applying an external 1.5MHz clock synchronizes switching while forcing pulse-skipping. The pin must never be left floating, as undefined states may cause erratic regulation or increased EMI.
What is the purpose of the POR pin on the LTC3407EDD#PBF?
The POR (Power-On Reset) pin on the LTC3407EDD#PBF is an open-drain output that pulls low whenever either regulated output deviates by more than ±8.5% from its target voltage. After both outputs stabilize within tolerance, a 262,144-cycle timer (~175ms) elapses before POR releases high - providing a reliable, capacitor-free reset signal for microcontrollers or FPGAs in portable systems powered by the LTC3407EDD#PBF.
Can the LTC3407EDD#PBF operate with a 2.5V input voltage?
Yes, the LTC3407EDD#PBF is fully specified to operate from 2.5V to 5.5V input. At 2.5V input, it supports output voltages down to 0.6V (via feedback divider) and maintains 100% duty-cycle dropout for VOUT ≤ 2.5V – (ILOAD × 0.35Ω). Efficiency remains >85% at 200mA load (VOUT = 1.8V), as verified in Figure 3407 G13 of the datasheet.
