Product details
Overview
LTC3419EMS#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel, monolithic, synchronous step-down DC/DC converter optimized for portable Li-ion and USB-powered systems. It delivers up to 600mA per channel across an input range of 2.5V–5.5V, features 2.25MHz fixed-frequency operation, 0.6V feedback reference, and 100% duty cycle low-dropout capability - enabling extended battery runtime in space-constrained applications such as digital still cameras and wireless modems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3419EMS#PBF datasheet, LTC3419EMS#PBF pinout, LTC3419EMS#PBF application, or LTC3419EMS#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed dual-buck topology behavior, real-world efficiency vs. load curves at VOUT = 1.2V/1.8V/2.5V, and precise MSOP-10 package implementation details - all specific to the LTC3419EMS#PBF variant.
Technical Context
The LTC3419EMS#PBF implements a constant-frequency, current-mode control architecture with synchronized dual channels sharing a single 2.25MHz oscillator. Each channel uses internal P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side MOSFETs with typical RDS(ON) of 0.4Ω (top) and 0.4Ω (bottom) at VIN = 3.6V, supporting independent soft-start and user-selectable Burst Mode® or pulse-skipping operation via the MODE pin.
It operates with a 0.6V internal reference voltage, enabling output regulation down to 0.6V using external resistor dividers. The device supports 100% duty cycle dropout operation and integrates overcurrent protection, thermal shutdown, and short-circuit recovery without external components - all within its 10-lead MSOP package with exposed pad for thermal management.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V) and USB 5V rails. |
| Output Current per Channel | 600mA - sufficient to power core logic, memory, and RF sections in portable devices. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25MHz (typ) - enables use of sub-3.3μH inductors and compact 10μF ceramic output capacitors. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 0.6V (±1.7% over –40°C to 125°C) - allows precise low-voltage outputs (e.g., 1.2V, 1.8V) with standard resistor ratios. |
| Quiescent Current | 35μA (both channels active) - minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems. |
| Shutdown Current | <1μA - preserves battery charge during deep sleep or system off states. |
| Efficiency Peak | 96% at VOUT = 1.8V, IOUT = 600mA, VIN = 3.6V - reduces thermal load and extends runtime. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead Plastic MSOP (3mm × 3mm footprint, 0.85mm max height), with exposed pad (Pin 5) soldered to PCB ground for thermal conduction. Pin count and layout match MSOP-10 mechanical standard; not pin-compatible with DFN-8 variants.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VFB1 (Pin 1) | Channel 1 Feedback Input | Connects to resistor divider on VOUT1; regulates output by holding voltage at 0.6V. |
| RUN1 (Pin 2) | Channel 1 Enable Control | High (≥1V) enables Regulator 1; low (≤0.4V) forces shutdown with <1μA IQ. |
| MODE (Pin 3) | Operating Mode Select | Ground = Burst Mode® (high light-load efficiency); VIN = pulse-skipping (low ripple, constant frequency). |
| SW1 (Pin 4) | Channel 1 Switch Node | Connects to inductor; swings between VIN and GND; requires low-inductance layout to minimize EMI. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Power Ground / Exposed Pad | Main return path for both channels; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB thermal plane. |
| SW2 (Pin 6) | Channel 2 Switch Node | Independent switch node for second buck stage; layout symmetry recommended for thermal balance. |
| RUN2 (Pin 7) | Channel 2 Enable Control | Functionally identical to RUN1; enables/disables Regulator 2 independently. |
| VFB2 (Pin 8) | Channel 2 Feedback Input | Regulates VOUT2 to 0.6V reference; supports separate output voltages per channel. |
| VIN (Pin 9) | Main Power Input | Supplies both regulators; requires local 10μF ceramic + 0.1μF HF bypass capacitor. |
| GND (Pin 10) | Signal Ground | Reference for RUN/MODE pins; connects to same ground plane as Pin 5 for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent synchronous buck regulators | Enables split-rail power delivery (e.g., 1.2V core + 1.8V I/O) without cross-regulation or shared thermal stress. |
| Internally compensated for all-ceramic output capacitors | Eliminates need for ESR-based compensation networks; supports low-ESR X5R/X7R ceramics for minimal output ripple. |
| Independent soft-start per channel (≈750μs) | Prevents inrush current into output caps during power-up; avoids input rail droop in multi-rail systems. |
| Burst Mode® operation with <20mVP-P ripple | Maintains >85% efficiency at 1mA load while limiting output voltage deviation during sleep intervals. |
| Short-circuit protected with automatic recovery | Forces N-channel switch on longer per cycle to safely discharge inductor; resumes regulation immediately after fault removal. |
| 100% duty cycle low-dropout mode | Extends usable battery life down to VOUT + ~150mV (at 600mA), critical for end-of-discharge operation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62150ARGTR | Single-channel 1A buck; 2.5–6V input; 3MHz switching; no dual-output capability. | Requires two ICs to replicate LTC3419EMS#PBF's dual-rail function; higher BOM count and board area. | Select only if higher per-channel current (>600mA) or tighter output tolerance (±1%) is required - not a functional replacement. |
| RT8059GQW | Dual-channel 600mA buck; 2.5–5.5V input; 1.5MHz switching; 0.6V reference; no Burst Mode®. | Lacks user-selectable light-load modes; fixed pulse-skipping only - higher light-load IQ (~50μA) and reduced efficiency below 10mA. | Consider when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency requirements at microamp loads; verify thermal performance with 1.5MHz vs. 2.25MHz inductor sizing. |
Compared with TPS62150ARGTR and RT8059GQW, the LTC3419EMS#PBF uniquely combines true dual independent regulation, Burst Mode® for ultra-low IQ, and MSOP-10 packaging - making it the only option that maintains both functional integration and efficiency across full load range in space-limited portable designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current per channel for the LTC3419EMS#PBF?
The LTC3419EMS#PBF delivers up to 600mA per channel continuously under typical conditions (VIN = 3V, TA = 25°C). This rating holds across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to 125°C) and is validated with 3.3μH inductors and 10μF ceramic output capacitors. Derating applies above 85°C ambient due to thermal limits of the MSOP-10 package.
Does the LTC3419EMS#PBF support adjustable output voltages?
Yes, the LTC3419EMS#PBF supports fully adjustable outputs via external resistor dividers on VFB1 and VFB2 pins. With a precise 0.6V internal reference, outputs can be set from 0.6V to VIN – VDROP (e.g., 1.2V, 1.8V, 2.5V). Fixed-output versions (e.g., LTC3419-1) exist but the LTC3419EMS#PBF itself is the adjustable variant.
How does Burst Mode® operation work on the LTC3419EMS#PBF?
Burst Mode® on the LTC3419EMS#PBF activates when the MODE pin is grounded. It reduces light-load quiescent current to ~35μA by intermittently enabling full switching cycles only when output voltage droop exceeds a threshold. Each burst delivers ~60mA peak inductor current, minimizing switching losses while maintaining regulation - achieving >85% efficiency at 1mA load.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the LTC3419EMS#PBF package?
The LTC3419EMS#PBF in its 10-lead MSOP package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 120°C/W, measured per JEDEC JESD51-7 with 1-inch² 2-oz copper pad. This value assumes the exposed pad (Pin 5) is soldered to a solid ground plane. Without proper pad soldering, θJA degrades significantly - reducing maximum continuous output current capability.
Can the LTC3419EMS#PBF operate with ceramic input and output capacitors?
Yes, the LTC3419EMS#PBF is fully compatible with ceramic capacitors on both input and output. Its internal compensation is optimized for zero-ESR ceramics, eliminating stability risks. Use X5R or X7R dielectrics (e.g., 10μF 0805 X7R at VIN, 10μF 0805 X5R at VOUT) - but add a 0.1μF ceramic close to VIN for high-frequency decoupling to prevent ringing.
