Product details
Overview
LTC3535EDD#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel, synchronous, fixed-frequency step-up DC/DC converter with output disconnect and independent shutdown control per channel. It delivers up to 550mA per channel at 1MHz switching frequency, starts from 680mV input, operates down to 500mV, and supports adjustable output voltages from 1.5V to 5.25V - enabling single AA/AAA battery-powered medical instruments and noise-canceling headphones.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3535EDD#PBF datasheet, LTC3535EDD#PBF pinout, LTC3535EDD#PBF application, or LTC3535EDD#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 680mV start-up voltage, dual independent 1MHz boost channels with Burst Mode® (9µA IQ per channel), internal synchronous rectification, output disconnect, and thermal shutdown in a 12-lead 3mm × 3mm DFN package.
Technical Context
The LTC3535EDD#PBF implements current-mode PWM control with internal slope compensation and adaptive zero-current detection to enable fast transient response and stable operation across wide input/output ranges. Each channel features independent start-up oscillators, dedicated error amplifiers with 1.195V reference, and anti-ring circuitry that damps SW-pin ringing during discontinuous conduction mode.
It supports VIN > VOUT operation with clamped 90% maximum duty cycle, integrates soft-start (0.5ms ramp), and uses internal N-channel MOSFET switches (0.4Ω RDS(ON)) with P-channel synchronous rectifiers (0.6Ω RDS(ON)). Shutdown is logic-controlled with <1µA quiescent current and internal 4MΩ pull-down on SHDN pins.

Pinout & Package
The LTC3535EDD#PBF is housed in a 12-lead 3mm × 3mm × 0.75mm plastic DFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 13) that must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal management (θJC = 3°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT1 (Pin 1) | Channel 1 output sense & synchronous rectifier drain | Connects directly to output capacitor; enables true output disconnect and prevents reverse current into VIN1. |
| SW1 (Pin 2) | Channel 1 switch node | Drives external inductor; internal anti-ringing switch connects SW1 to VIN1 when current falls to zero or SHDN1 is low. |
| GND (Pins 3, 6, 13) | Signal and power ground | Multiple GND connections plus exposed pad ensure low-impedance return path and effective heat dissipation. |
| VOUT2 (Pin 4) | Channel 2 output sense & synchronous rectifier drain | Independent of Channel 1; supports separate or tied outputs with no current sharing. |
| SW2 (Pin 5) | Channel 2 switch node | Functionally identical to SW1; requires short, wide PCB trace to minimize EMI. |
| VIN2 (Pin 7) | Channel 2 input supply | Accepts 0.5V–5V; decoupled with ≥1µF ceramic capacitor to suppress high-frequency noise. |
| SHDN2 (Pin 8) | Channel 2 shutdown control | Logic-high enables operation; internal 4MΩ pull-down ensures default shutdown if left floating. |
| FB2 (Pin 9) | Channel 2 feedback input | Sets regulated output via resistor divider; reference voltage is 1.195V ±30mV over temperature. |
| VIN1 (Pin 10) | Channel 1 input supply | Independent input source; supports dual-battery or redundant power architectures. |
| SHDN1 (Pin 11) | Channel 1 shutdown control | Enables per-channel power gating for dynamic system-level power management. |
| FB1 (Pin 12) | Channel 1 feedback input | Identical function to FB2; allows independent output voltage programming per channel. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel boost converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS610992RTER | Single-channel, 1.2MHz, 400mA max, 600mV start-up, no output disconnect | Lacks independent dual outputs and true output disconnect; requires two devices for dual-rail designs | Choose only if dual-channel integration is unnecessary and board area permits two ICs. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for LTC3535EDD#PBF to start up?
The LTC3535EDD#PBF has a guaranteed start-up input voltage of 680mV at 1mA load, with typical operation down to 500mV once started. This enables reliable power-up from deeply discharged single alkaline or NiMH cells. The start-up oscillator is independent per channel and activates before normal PWM operation begins. Designers must ensure PCB layout minimizes trace resistance to preserve this low-voltage capability in LTC3535EDD#PBF implementations.
Does LTC3535EDD#PBF support independent output voltage programming for each channel?
Yes, LTC3535EDD#PBF supports fully independent output voltage programming via separate FB1 and FB2 pins. Each feedback input references an internal 1.195V ±30mV bandgap, allowing adjustment from 1.5V to 5.25V using standard resistor dividers. The formula is VOUT = 1.195V × (1 + Rtop/Rbottom). Channels operate independently - one can regulate 3.3V while the other delivers 2.5V, with no interaction between their control loops or output disconnect functions in LTC3535EDD#PBF.
How does the output disconnect feature work in LTC3535EDD#PBF?
LTC3535EDD#PBF achieves true output disconnect by eliminating body-diode conduction in its internal P-channel synchronous rectifier. When SHDN1 or SHDN2 is pulled low, the rectifier gate is actively controlled to block reverse current flow, allowing VOUT1 or VOUT2 to fall to 0V without drawing current from VIN. This prevents battery drain during shutdown and enables safe VOUT pulling above VIN. To retain this feature, no external Schottky diode may be placed between SW and VOUT in LTC3535EDD#PBF designs.
What is the quiescent current of LTC3535EDD#PBF in Burst Mode operation?
In Burst Mode operation, LTC3535EDD#PBF draws just 9µA per channel from VOUT, measured with FB > 1.230V and light load conditions. This ultra-low IQ is achieved by cycling between brief 1MHz switching bursts and deep-sleep periods where all switching activity halts. Total system IQ drops to <20µA when both channels are in Burst Mode - critical for energy harvesting and multi-month standby in battery-powered LTC3535EDD#PBF applications.
Can LTC3535EDD#PBF operate with input voltage higher than output voltage?
Yes, LTC3535EDD#PBF supports VIN > VOUT operation, maintaining regulation even when input exceeds programmed output voltage. In this mode, the P-channel rectifier remains off and the N-channel switch operates in linear pass-through, resulting in lower efficiency and reduced maximum output current. The device clamps duty cycle at 90% typical and relies on internal current limiting (400mA short-circuit threshold) to prevent damage. This capability is documented in the LTC3535EDD#PBF datasheet under "VIN > VOUT Operation".
