Product details
Overview
LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator delivering 1.5A on Channel 1 and 1A on Channel 2, operating at up to 4MHz switching frequency with input range 2.25V–5.5V and output adjustability from 0.8V to 5V. It integrates low-RDS(ON) P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs, supports Burst Mode™ for <125μA quiescent current, and targets compact power delivery in GPS, automotive instrumentation, and point-of-load systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF pinout, LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF application, or LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-channel phase control (in-phase or 180° out-of-phase), programmable 0.6–4MHz frequency via FREQ pin resistor, selectable light-load modes (Burst/Pulse Skip/Forced Continuous), and thermal performance in the 3mm × 5mm DFN package with exposed PGND2 pad.
Technical Context
The LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF uses a constant-frequency current-mode architecture with shared clocking across both channels. Its PHASE pin configures Channel 2 relative to Channel 1 (0V = 180° out-of-phase; VIN = in-phase), reducing RMS input current stress when out-of-phase. The SYNC/MODE pin selects operating mode: >VIN−0.5V enables Burst Mode™ (low IQ), <0.5V enables Pulse Skip (low ripple), and VIN/2 enables Forced Continuous (fixed-frequency noise).
FREQ pin programming sets oscillator frequency from 0.6MHz to 4MHz via external resistor or fixes it at 1.5MHz when tied to VIN. Internal error amplifiers compare VFB1/VFB2 (0.8V nominal reference) against feedback dividers, adjusting ITH1/ITH2 (0–1.5V range) to regulate peak inductor current. Undervoltage lockout activates below 2.07V, and dropout operation maintains 100% duty cycle with only 100μA total quiescent current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 2.25V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, USB, and 3.3V/5V rail inputs without pre-regulation |
| Output Current | 1.5A (CH1), 1A (CH2) - guaranteed minimum per channel with internal current limiting (2.5A/1.7A peak) |
| Switching Frequency | 0.6MHz to 4MHz - adjustable via FREQ pin resistor; enables use of sub-2mm-height inductors and ceramic capacitors |
| Feedback Voltage | 0.8V ±2% - precise reference enabling accurate output regulation from 0.8V to 5V using standard resistor dividers |
| Quiescent Current | 125μA (Sleep), <1μA (Shutdown) - extends battery life in always-on or low-duty-cycle systems |
| Efficiency | Up to 95% - achieved via synchronous rectification and low RDS(ON) switches (0.088Ω/0.16Ω top-side) |
| Power Good | PGOOD output asserts low when either VOUT deviates >±6% from target - enables system-level sequencing and fault monitoring |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead (3mm × 5mm) plastic DFN with exposed thermal pad (Pin 17 = PGND2/GNDD), rated for −40°C to +85°C ambient operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PGND1 (Pin 1) | N-channel driver ground for CH1 | Provides low-impedance return path for SW1 current; must be connected to local PGND plane |
| SW1 (Pin 15) | CH1 switch node | Connects to inductor L1; swings between VIN1 and PGND1; requires tight layout to minimize EMI |
| PHASE (Pin 14) | Channel phase relationship control | 0V = CH2 180° out-of-phase with CH1 (reduces input RMS current); VIN = in-phase |
| GNDA (Pin 13) | Analog ground reference | Separate ground for internal analog circuitry; must be tied to quiet AGND plane, not noisy PGND |
| FREQ (Pin 12) | Oscillator frequency set input | Tie to VIN for 1.5MHz; connect RT resistor to GND for 0.6–4MHz adjustment (RT ≈ 1.61×10¹¹/fO Ω) |
| PGOOD (Pin 11) | Open-drain power-good indicator | Pulled low if either VOUT falls >6% below regulation; active-high logic requires external pull-up |
| SW2 (Pin 10) | CH2 switch node | Connects to inductor L2; swings between VIN2 and PGND2; shares thermal pad with GNDD |
| SYNC/MODE (Pin 9) | Mode selection & external sync input | Controls light-load behavior (Burst/Pulse Skip/Forced Continuous) and accepts external clock for synchronization |
| RUN1 (Pin 1) | CH1 enable input | Logic high (>0.85V) enables CH1; low disables CH1; both RUN1/RUN2 low = full shutdown (<1μA IQ) |
| VIN1 (Pin 2) | CH1 power supply input | Supplies P-channel switch and gate drive for CH1; separate from VIN2 to allow independent input rails |
| ITH1 (Pin 3) | CH1 error amplifier compensation | 0–1.5V control voltage setting peak inductor current; connects to RC network for loop stability |
| VFB1 (Pin 4) | CH1 feedback input | Monitors resistive divider output; regulated to 0.8V reference; determines final VOUT1 accuracy |
| VFB2 (Pin 5) | CH2 feedback input | Same function as VFB1 for CH2; allows independent output voltage programming |
| ITH2 (Pin 6) | CH2 error amplifier compensation | Identical role to ITH1 but for CH2; enables independent loop compensation |
| RUN2 (Pin 7) | CH2 enable input | Independent enable for CH2; supports asymmetric power sequencing |
| VIN2 (Pin 8) | CH2 power supply & analog supply | Supplies CH2 P-channel switch and all internal analog circuitry; must be stable and low-noise |

FAQ
What is the maximum supported switching frequency for the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF?
The LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF supports a maximum switching frequency of 4MHz when configured via an external resistor on the FREQ pin. This high-frequency capability enables the use of very small inductors (e.g., 1.5μH) and ceramic capacitors, reducing overall solution size and height - critical for portable and space-constrained applications. At 4MHz, the device maintains stable regulation and high efficiency across its specified load and input voltage ranges.
How does the PHASE pin affect input capacitor stress in the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF?
The PHASE pin on the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF selects whether Channel 2 operates in-phase or 180° out-of-phase with Channel 1. When set to 180° out-of-phase (PHASE = 0V), the input current ripple from both channels partially cancels, reducing RMS input current by up to 30%. This directly lowers stress on the input capacitor, allowing smaller capacitance values and extending capacitor lifetime - especially beneficial in high-reliability automotive and industrial applications.
Can the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF operate with different input voltages on VIN1 and VIN2?
Yes, the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF supports independent input supplies: VIN1 powers Channel 1's P-channel switch and gate drive, while VIN2 powers Channel 2's switch and all internal analog circuitry. However, the absolute difference |VIN1 − VIN2| must not exceed 0.3V per Absolute Maximum Ratings. This architecture allows partial rail independence but requires careful PCB layout to minimize voltage differentials and ensure stable operation across temperature and load.
What is the purpose of the SYNC/MODE pin on the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF?
The SYNC/MODE pin on the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF serves two functions: it selects light-load operating mode (Burst Mode™, Pulse Skip, or Forced Continuous) based on applied voltage level, and accepts an external clock signal for frequency synchronization. This dual functionality enables system-level noise management - e.g., synchronizing multiple converters to avoid beat frequencies - while optimizing efficiency or ripple performance depending on real-time load conditions.
Does the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF require external Schottky diodes?
No, the LTC3417AEDHC-2#TRPBF does not require external Schottky diodes. It integrates synchronous P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs for both channels, eliminating body-diode conduction losses and enabling high efficiency (up to 95%) without external rectification components. This reduces BOM count, board area, and thermal dissipation - particularly advantageous in compact, thermally constrained designs.
