Product details
Overview
LTC3410ESC6-1.5 from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a fixed-output, high-efficiency synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator in SC70-6 package, delivering up to 300mA output current with ±2% voltage accuracy at 1.5V, operating from 2.5V–5.5V input, and featuring 2.25MHz constant-frequency operation and 96% peak efficiency for Li-ion portable systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3410ESC6-1.5 datasheet, LTC3410ESC6-1.5 pinout, LTC3410ESC6-1.5 application, or LTC3410ESC6-1.5 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 1.5V fixed output, 26µA quiescent current in Burst Mode, 100% duty-cycle dropout capability, SC70-6 thermal performance (θJA = 250°C/W), and compatibility with ceramic capacitors without external Schottky diode.
Technical Context
The LTC3410ESC6-1.5 employs a constant-frequency, current-mode control architecture with integrated P-channel main switch (RDS(ON) = 0.75Ω typ) and N-channel synchronous rectifier (RDS(ON) = 0.55Ω typ), enabling stable regulation across 2.5V–5.5V input while maintaining low output ripple (20mVP-P in Burst Mode). Its internal 0.8V reference and fixed-resistor feedback network set VOUT = 1.5V with ±2% accuracy over load (50–250mA) and temperature (–40°C to 85°C).
Burst Mode operation reduces supply current to 26µA at light loads by intermittently enabling switching cycles, while shutdown draws <1µA. Oscillator frequency remains tightly regulated at 2.25MHz (1.8–2.7MHz range) independent of input voltage or temperature, supporting compact 2.2–4.7µH inductors and 4.7µF ceramic input/output capacitors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5V ±2% at 100mA load; enables direct replacement of LDOs in 1.5V rail applications without external resistors. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA continuous; supports digital baseband, RF transceivers, and sensor interfaces in space-constrained portable designs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V; compatible with single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), LiFePO₄, and regulated 3.3V/5V supplies. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25MHz (typ); allows use of sub-5mm inductors and eliminates audible noise in consumer audio devices. |
| Quiescent Current | 26µA in Burst Mode; extends battery runtime in standby modes of cellular modems and IoT sensors. |
| Efficiency | Up to 96% at 100mA/VIN=3.6V; minimizes thermal rise in sealed enclosures and reduces PCB copper area requirements. |
| Duty Cycle | 100% dropout operation; maintains regulation down to VIN ≈ VOUT + IOUT × RDS(ON), critical for end-of-battery-life operation. |
| Package | SC70-6 (2.0mm × 1.25mm × 0.95mm); enables ultra-dense layouts in smartphones and wearables where board area is premium. |
Pinout & Package
SC70-6 plastic package: 2.0mm × 1.25mm footprint, 0.95mm max height, 0.65mm lead pitch, thermally enhanced die pad (GND pins 2 & 5 tied internally to exposed pad).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (Pin 1) | Enable control input | Logic-high (>1.5V) enables regulation; logic-low (<0.3V) forces <1µA shutdown-used for system-level power sequencing. |
| GND (Pins 2, 5) | Power and signal ground | Dual GND pins reduce ground impedance and improve EMI performance; both must be connected to low-impedance PCB ground plane. |
| SW (Pin 3) | Switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt square-wave current-requires short, wide trace to minimize ringing and EMI. |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Main input supply | Accepts 2.5–5.5V; requires local 4.7µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of pin to suppress switching transients. |
| VOUT (Pin 6) | Fixed-output feedback | Internally connected to 1.5V divider; no external resistor needed-eliminates layout error risk and saves BOM cost vs adjustable versions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external Schottky diode required | Integrated N-channel synchronous rectifier eliminates 0.3–0.5V forward drop, increasing efficiency by 5–10% vs diode-based buck converters. |
| Stable with ceramic capacitors only | Current-mode control and internal compensation eliminate need for ESR-dependent output caps-enables 20mVP-P ripple with 4.7µF X5R. |
| Low-noise Burst Mode operation | 26µA IQ with 20mVP-P output ripple preserves signal integrity in RF sections and audio codecs without requiring external LDO post-regulation. |
| Overtemperature protection | Thermal shutdown activates at ~150°C junction temperature, latching off SW node to prevent damage during sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
| 100% duty cycle low-dropout mode | Maintains regulation when VIN drops to ~1.6V (at 300mA), extending usable battery life by >15% compared to non-dropout regulators. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRYR | 1.5V fixed, 300mA, 3MHz, 17µA IQ, WSON-6 (2.0×2.0mm) | Higher frequency enables smaller inductors but increases gate-drive losses above 4V input; less efficient at 2.7V input. | Prefer for designs prioritizing minimum inductor size over low-VIN efficiency; requires re-layout due to larger WSON footprint. |
| MAX17222ETA+ | 1.5V fixed, 500mA, 2.5MHz, 2.5µA IQ (ultra-low), 6-bump WLP (1.22×0.84mm) | Lower IQ extends battery life further but uses 0.4mm pitch WLP-more challenging for hand-soldering and optical inspection. | Prefer for ultra-long-life battery applications where assembly yield and test access allow WLP handling; not drop-in due to different pinout. |
Compared with LTC3410ESC6-1.5, TPS62231DRYR offers higher switching frequency but sacrifices low-input efficiency, while MAX17222ETA+ delivers ultra-low IQ in a smaller WLP but requires tighter assembly controls-neither is pin-compatible, making LTC3410ESC6-1.5 optimal for balanced performance, manufacturability, and legacy design reuse.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the LTC3410ESC6-1.5?
The LTC3410ESC6-1.5 delivers up to 300mA continuous output current at 1.5V with VIN ≥ 2.7V and ambient temperature ≤ 85°C. At higher temperatures or lower input voltages (e.g., 2.5V), derating applies due to increased RDS(ON) and thermal limits-maximum safe current drops to ~220mA at 85°C/2.5V per thermal analysis using θJA = 250°C/W.
Does the LTC3410ESC6-1.5 require external feedback resistors to set the 1.5V output?
No. The LTC3410ESC6-1.5 is a fixed-output variant with internal resistor divider connected to Pin 6 (VOUT), so no external resistors are needed. This eliminates layout sensitivity, improves accuracy (±2% over temperature), and reduces BOM count versus adjustable versions like LTC3410ESC6.
Can the LTC3410ESC6-1.5 operate with input voltage equal to the output voltage?
Yes. The LTC3410ESC6-1.5 supports 100% duty-cycle operation, allowing it to regulate down to VIN ≈ VOUT + (IOUT × RDS(ON)), e.g., ~1.6V at 300mA. This dropout capability extends usable battery life in Li-ion systems, especially during deep discharge where VIN falls below 2.0V.
What is the purpose of the dual GND pins (Pins 2 and 5) on the LTC3410ESC6-1.5 SC70-6 package?
Pins 2 and 5 are both connected to the internal die ground and the exposed thermal pad. Using both pins lowers ground path inductance and resistance, improving EMI performance and thermal dissipation. PCB layout requires connecting both to a solid ground plane via multiple vias-omitting either degrades efficiency and transient response.
How does Burst Mode operation affect output voltage ripple in the LTC3410ESC6-1.5?
In Burst Mode, the LTC3410ESC6-1.5 achieves 20mVP-P output ripple at light loads (e.g., 1mA) while drawing only 26µA IQ. This is accomplished by pulsing full switching cycles followed by sleep intervals-ripple frequency drops to ~1–10kHz depending on load, but amplitude remains tightly controlled by the output capacitor's ESR and value.
