Product details
Overview
LTC3422EDD#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-efficiency, current-mode, synchronous step-up DC/DC converter with true output disconnect, 700mA continuous / 1A pulsed output capability, and guaranteed 1V start-up for single-cell Li-ion to 5V power conversion in portable electronics. It integrates 0.20Ω NMOS switch and 0.24Ω PMOS synchronous rectifier, supports adjustable fixed-frequency operation from 100kHz to 3MHz, and delivers up to 96% efficiency.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3422EDD#TRPBF pinout, LTC3422EDD#TRPBF application, or LTC3422EDD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 1V minimum start-up voltage, programmable Burst Mode threshold, true output disconnect for zero-load leakage, anti-ringing control for EMI reduction, and thermally enhanced 10-pin DFN (3mm × 3mm) package with exposed ground pad.
Technical Context
The LTC3422EDD#TRPBF employs peak current-mode control with adaptive slope compensation, enabling stable operation across wide input (0.5V–4.5V) and output (2.25V–5.25V) ranges. Its independent start-up oscillator initiates switching at 0.88V typical, while internal soft-start and inrush limiting prevent input surge during turn-on.
Burst Mode operation is automatically entered below user-defined load thresholds (programmable via BURST pin resistor), reducing quiescent current to 25µA; fixed-frequency PWM resumes above threshold. The oscillator supports external synchronization (SYNC pin) and frequency programming (RT pin), with shutdown current <1µA and thermal shutdown protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 0.5V to 4.5V - supports deep discharge Li-ion cells and enables operation even after VOUT exceeds VIN. |
| Output Voltage Range | 2.25V to 5.25V - adjustable via FB resistor divider; 1.216V reference ensures ±2% regulation accuracy. |
| Switching Frequency | 100kHz to 3MHz - programmable via RT pin; synchronizable to external clock on SYNC pin. |
| Efficiency | Up to 96% - achieved via synchronous rectification and low RDS(ON) switches (0.20Ω NMOS / 0.24Ω PMOS). |
| Quiescent Current | 25µA in Burst Mode - extends battery life in standby; <1µA in shutdown. |
| Start-Up Voltage | 0.88V typical - enables reliable boot from single-cell alkaline or deeply discharged Li-ion. |
| Output Disconnect | True - eliminates body diode conduction; prevents reverse current and enables zero-VOUT shutdown. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-lead (3mm × 3mm × 0.75mm) thermally enhanced DFN with exposed ground pad (Pin 11), requiring PCB soldering for thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (Pin 1) | Switch node | Connection point for inductor; features internal anti-ringing control to dampen SW ringing in DCM. |
| VIN (Pin 2) | Input supply | Accepts 0.5V–4.5V input; powers IC until VOUT > VIN + 0.3V, then self-biases from VOUT. |
| BURST (Pin 3) | Burst Mode control | Resistor-to-ground sets average load current threshold for automatic Burst/PWM mode transition. |
| SS (Pin 4) | Soft-start timing | Capacitor-to-ground programs soft-start ramp time (t = CSS × 320 ms); inhibits Burst Mode during ramp. |
| SHDN (Pin 5) | Shutdown enable | Logic-low (<0.25V) disables converter; hysteresis allows hold-on down to 0.65V after VOUT > 2.2V. |
| FB (Pin 6) | Feedback input | Monitors resistor-divider tap; regulates output using 1.216V internal reference (±2% over temp). |
| VC (Pin 7) | Error amplifier output | Connects to compensation network; clamped internally for fast transient response. |
| RT (Pin 8) | Frequency adjust | Resistor-to-ground sets fOSC (f = 28/RT MHz); supports sync via external clock on SYNC. |
| SYNC (Pin 9) | Oscillator sync input | Accepts 100ns–2µs pulses; free-running frequency must be ≥20% lower than sync frequency. |
| VOUT (Pin 10) | Regulated output | Delivers up to 700mA continuous; requires ≥10µF ceramic capacitor close to pin and ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True output disconnect | Eliminates reverse current path via controlled PMOS gate drive - enables zero-VOUT shutdown and prevents battery drain. |
| Adjustable automatic Burst Mode | Programmable entry/exit load threshold (e.g., 12kΩ → ~1A exit) - reduces quiescent current to 25µA without sacrificing light-load regulation. |
| Inrush current limiting | Gradual soft-start ramp combined with controlled peak current rise - limits input surge during startup without external components. |
| Anti-ringing control | Internal impedance connected from SW to VIN during DCM - suppresses high-frequency ringing and reduces EMI radiation. |
| Guaranteed 1V start-up | Independent start-up oscillator activates at 0.88V typical - supports operation from single-cell alkaline, NiMH, or deeply discharged Li-ion sources. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF to start switching?
The LTC3422EDD#TRPBF guarantees start-up at 1V input, with a typical minimum of 0.88V under light load. This is enabled by an independent start-up oscillator that operates before the main control loop engages, allowing reliable boot from single-cell alkaline, NiMH, or deeply discharged Li-ion batteries. Once VOUT exceeds ~2.2V, the device transitions to normal operation and can sustain regulation even if VIN drops to 0.5V.
Does the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF provide true output disconnect, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF provides true output disconnect by actively controlling the gate of its internal 0.24Ω P-channel MOSFET synchronous rectifier to prevent body diode conduction. When shut down, VOUT is fully isolated from VIN, drawing no reverse current - critical for zero-load battery drain prevention. This requires no external components but mandates that no Schottky diodes be placed between SW and VOUT, as they would bypass the internal disconnect function.
How is Burst Mode operation configured on the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF?
Burst Mode on the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF is configured via a resistor (RB) from the BURST pin to ground, where RB (in kΩ) ≈ 12 / IEXITBURST (in A). For example, a 12kΩ resistor sets exit at ~1A average load. An optional capacitor (CB ≥ COUT × VOUT / 64,000) filters noise to prevent mode oscillation. Grounding BURST forces Burst Mode; connecting it to VOUT forces fixed-frequency PWM - both manual methods override automatic control.
What thermal design considerations apply to the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF in a 700mA continuous application?
The LTC3422EDD#TRPBF requires soldering of its exposed pad (Pin 11) to a PCB ground plane using multiple thermal vias to achieve θJA = 43°C/W. At 700mA continuous output with 2.4V input and 3.3V output, junction temperature rise is ~35°C above ambient under typical layout. Exceeding 125°C triggers thermal shutdown; sustained operation above 100°C may reduce current limit. Layout must minimize SW trace inductance and place input/output capacitors within 2mm of respective pins.
Can the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF operate with input voltage higher than output voltage?
Yes, the LTC3422EDD#TRPBF supports VIN > VOUT operation by disabling the synchronous rectifier and applying VIN directly to the PMOS gate, effectively turning it into a pass transistor. In this mode, regulation is maintained, but efficiency drops due to resistive loss in the PMOS channel (RDS(ON) = 0.24Ω). Output disconnect remains active during shutdown regardless of VIN/VOUT relationship, preserving zero-reverse-current behavior.
