Product details
Overview
LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator IC designed for medium-power point-of-load conversion. It delivers 1.5A and 1A output currents respectively, operates from 2.25V to 5.5V input, supports programmable switching frequency up to 4MHz, and features independent RUN control, phase-selectable operation, and Burst Mode® for ultra-low quiescent current (125µA in sleep mode). It is used in compact battery-powered systems such as GPS modules and DSL modems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF pinout, LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF application, or LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-output current capability (1.5A/1A), 16-lead 3mm × 5mm DFN package with exposed thermal pad, selectable light-load modes (Burst/Pulse Skip/Forced Continuous), and precise 0.8V ±2% feedback reference voltage.
Technical Context
The LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF employs a constant-frequency current-mode architecture with shared oscillator and independent error amplifiers per channel. Its dual synchronous buck topology uses internal P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs with RDS(ON) of 88mΩ/84mΩ (CH1) and 160mΩ/150mΩ (CH2) at 3.6V, enabling high efficiency without external diodes. The PHASE pin configures 0° or 180° channel synchronization to reduce input RMS current.
Operation is controlled via the SYNC/MODE pin, which selects Burst Mode® (high efficiency, ~125µA IQ), Pulse Skip (low ripple), or Forced Continuous (fixed-frequency noise). The FREQ pin sets oscillator frequency from 0.6MHz to 4MHz using an external resistor or fixes it at 1.5MHz when tied to VIN. Both channels feature individual soft-start, power-good monitoring, and dropout operation at 100% duty cycle.

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 16) | Power Ground for CH1 Switch | Return path for SW1 N-channel driver; must be low-inductance connection to PCB ground 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 Control Input | Logic-high (VIN) → in-phase; logic-low (GND) → 180° out-of-phase; reduces input capacitor RMS stress |
| GNDA (Pin 13) | Analog Ground | Reference for internal error amplifiers and comparators; separate from power grounds to avoid noise coupling |
| FREQ (Pin 12) | Oscillator Frequency Set | Tied to VIN → 1.5MHz; resistor-to-GND → 0.6–4MHz; sets timing ramp current for internal oscillator |
| PGOOD (Pin 11) | Power-Good Output | Open-drain signal pulled low if either VOUT deviates >±6% from regulation; shared status for both channels |
| SW2 (Pin 10) | CH2 Switch Node | Connects to inductor L2; swings between VIN2 and PGND2; shares layout constraints with SW1 |
| SYNC/MODE (Pin 9) | Mode Selection & Clock Sync | Voltage threshold selects Burst Mode® (VIN–0.5V), Pulse Skip (0.5V), or Forced Continuous (VIN/2); also accepts external clock |
| RUN1 (Pin 1) | CH1 Enable Input | Logic-high enables 1.5A regulator; logic-low disables CH1; both RUN1/RUN2 low → full shutdown (<1µA) |
| RUN2 (Pin 7) | CH2 Enable Input | Independent enable for 1A regulator; allows asymmetric power sequencing and dynamic channel control |
| VIN1 (Pin 2) | CH1 Power Input | Supplies P-channel switch of CH1; must be decoupled locally with low-ESR ceramic capacitor |
| VIN2 (Pin 8) | CH2 Power Input & Analog Supply | Supplies CH2 P-channel switch and internal analog circuitry; shared rail with GNDA reference |
| VFB1 (Pin 4) | CH1 Feedback Input | Monitors resistive divider output; regulates CH1 to 0.8V reference; ±0.1µA input bias minimizes divider error |
| VFB2 (Pin 5) | CH2 Feedback Input | Same function as VFB1 for CH2; enables independent output voltage programming (e.g., 1.8V + 2.5V) |
| ITH1 (Pin 3) | CH1 Error Amplifier Output | Controls peak inductor current via current comparator threshold; compensation network connects here |
| ITH2 (Pin 6) | CH2 Error Amplifier Output | Independent compensation node for CH2; allows tailored loop response per channel |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent RUN pins | Enables asymmetric power-up/down sequencing and dynamic channel disable for adaptive power management |
| 180° phase-selectable operation | Reduces input capacitor RMS current by up to 30% versus in-phase mode, lowering required capacitance and size |
| Burst Mode® operation | Delivers 125µA total quiescent current across both channels while maintaining regulation - critical for battery longevity |
| No external Schottky diodes required | Integrated synchronous MOSFETs eliminate conduction losses and thermal overhead of discrete diodes |
| Power Good (PGOOD) with dual-channel monitoring | Single open-drain output asserts low if either output falls >6% from target - simplifies system-level fault detection |
| 100% duty cycle dropout operation | Maintains regulation down to VIN ≈ VOUT + ILOAD × RDS(ON), extending usable battery voltage range |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS65270RGET | Fixed 1.2MHz frequency; no Burst Mode®; higher IQ (250µA); supports 3A/2A outputs | Better for high-current, fixed-frequency designs where low-light-load efficiency is secondary | Select when higher output current and simpler frequency setup outweigh need for ultra-low IQ. |
| ISL91211AIRZ-T7A | Triple-output (3A/2A/2A); integrated PMIC sequencing; 2.5MHz fixed frequency; no phase control | Suitable for multi-rail SoC platforms requiring coordinated power-up but not phase optimization | Choose for complex SoC power trees where integration and sequencing trump dual-channel flexibility. |
Compared with TPS65270RGET and ISL91211AIRZ-T7A, the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF uniquely balances ultra-low quiescent current (125µA), 0.6–4MHz programmability, and 180° phase control - making it optimal for compact, battery-sensitive dual-rail systems where input capacitor size and runtime are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported switching frequency for the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF?
The LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF supports a maximum switching frequency of 4MHz when configured with an external resistor on the FREQ pin. At this frequency, the device enables use of very small inductors (≤2mm height) and ceramic capacitors, reducing solution footprint. Operation above 4MHz is not guaranteed due to internal timing constraints and minimum on-time limitations.
Does the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF require external Schottky diodes?
No, the LTC3417AEDHC#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 across the full load range without additional components.
How does the PHASE pin affect input capacitor sizing in the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF?
When the PHASE pin is set low (0V), the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF operates its two channels 180° out-of-phase, reducing input RMS current by up to 30% compared to in-phase operation. This allows smaller input capacitors - for example, a single 10µF X5R ceramic may suffice instead of two 22µF units - lowering cost and board area.
What is the feedback reference voltage accuracy of the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF?
The LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF has a feedback reference voltage of 0.8V with ±2% tolerance over temperature (–40°C to +85°C). This specification ensures accurate output voltage regulation across operating conditions and enables stable 0.8V–5V programmability using standard resistor dividers with ≤1% tolerance.
Can the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF operate with only one channel enabled?
Yes, the LTC3417AEDHC#TRPBF supports independent channel control: pulling RUN1 low disables only CH1 (1.5A), while RUN2 remains active for CH2 (1A), and vice versa. In half-active mode, total quiescent current drops to 260–400µA - useful for dynamic power scaling in multi-rail systems.
