Product details
Overview
LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a synchronous 2A step-up DC/DC converter with output disconnect, fixed 2MHz switching frequency, 700mV start-up voltage, and operation down to 500mV after startup. It delivers up to 900mA at 5V from a single Li-Po cell and supports adjustable output from 1.5V to 5.25V in a low-profile 2mm × 3mm DFN package.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF pinout, LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF application, or LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low-voltage start-up capability, Burst Mode® efficiency optimization at light loads, output disconnect for true shutdown isolation, and compatibility with compact 2MHz magnetics.
Technical Context
The LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF employs current-mode PWM control with internal slope compensation and adaptive peak-current limiting (2.6A typical), enabling stable regulation across wide input/output differentials. Its architecture integrates an N-channel MOSFET switch (90mΩ RDS(ON)) and P-channel synchronous rectifier (125mΩ RDS(ON)), supporting VIN > VOUT operation while maintaining ≥94% peak efficiency.
Startup is managed by a dedicated oscillator that initiates switching at 700mV input, after which the IC self-powers from VOUT once VOUT exceeds VIN by 240mV. The 2MHz fixed-frequency operation minimizes external component size, and anti-ringing circuitry damps SW-pin oscillation during discontinuous conduction mode to reduce EMI.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 2MHz fixed - enables use of sub-2.5µH inductors and 0603/0805 ceramic capacitors, reducing solution footprint. |
| Input Voltage Range | 0.5V to 5V - supports single-cell alkaline/NiMH (0.5V operational), Li-Po (2.7–4.2V), and VIN > VOUT configurations. |
| Output Voltage Range | 1.5V to 5.25V - programmable via resistor divider on FB pin; feedback reference is 1.200V ±1.5%. |
| Peak Switch Current Limit | 2.6A typical - provides robust overload protection; reduced to 1.4A under short-circuit conditions. |
| Quiescent Current (Burst Mode) | 10µA - sustains battery life in always-on portable devices with intermittent load demand. |
| Shutdown Current | <1µA - ensures near-zero drain during system sleep; SHDN pin has internal 4MΩ pull-down. |
| Start-Up Voltage | 700mV typical - allows operation from deeply discharged batteries or energy-harvesting sources. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead, 2mm × 3mm × 0.75mm plastic DFN package (DCB) with exposed thermal pad (Pin 9) that must be soldered to PCB ground for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (Pin 1) | Switch node | Connects to inductor; internal N-MOSFET drain; anti-ring resistor engages during DCM to suppress EMI. |
| PGND (Pin 2) | Power ground | Low-impedance return path for high di/dt switch current; must tie directly to input/output capacitor negatives. |
| GND (Pin 3) | Signal ground | Reference for FB, MODE, SHDN; requires short, low-inductance trace to PGND and exposed pad. |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Battery input | Accepts 0.5–5V; requires ≥2.2µF ceramic decoupling close to pin; powers IC until VOUT > VIN + 240mV. |
| SHDN (Pin 5) | Logic shutdown control | Active-high; >0.88V = enable, <0.3V = shutdown (<1µA IQ); tolerates voltage above VIN/VOUT. |
| FB (Pin 6) | Feedback input | Senses resistor divider output; regulates VOUT = 1.2V × (1 + R2/R1); input bias current ≤50nA. |
| MODE (Pin 7) | Operation mode select | High = automatic Burst Mode®, Low = forced PWM; controls light-load efficiency vs. ripple trade-off. |
| VOUT (Pin 8) | Regulated output / sync rectifier drain | Delivers regulated output; internal P-MOSFET source; short, wide trace required to output capacitor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Output Disconnect | Eliminates body-diode conduction in shutdown - VOUT drops fully to 0V with zero reverse current into VIN source. |
| 2MHz Fixed-Frequency Operation | Reduces inductor size to ≤2.5µH and enables compact 0603/0805 ceramic capacitors without compromising stability. |
| 700mV Start-Up Voltage | Enables power-up from single-cell alkaline/NiMH at end-of-life or ultra-low-power energy harvesting systems. |
| Internal Compensation | Removes need for external loop compensation components - only 6 external parts required for full implementation. |
| Burst Mode® Efficiency Optimization | Maintains ≥85% efficiency at 100µA load via periodic energy bursts and 10µA sleep-state quiescent current. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required to start up the LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF?
The LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF starts up at a typical input voltage of 700mV, with guaranteed operation down to 0.7V across temperature. Once started, it continues operating down to 500mV input. This capability is enabled by a dedicated start-up oscillator and internal charge pump, making LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF suitable for deeply discharged batteries and energy-harvesting applications where input voltage may dip below 1V.
Does the LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF support output voltages higher than 5V?
No, the LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF supports an adjustable output voltage range of 1.5V to 5.25V only, as defined by its internal 1.200V ±1.5% feedback reference and maximum duty cycle limit (~90%). Attempting to set VOUT above 5.25V violates the device's electrical specifications and may result in regulation failure or instability. For higher output voltages, consider alternatives like LTC3421 or LTC3423.
How does the output disconnect feature work in the LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF?
The LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF achieves true output disconnect by actively controlling its internal P-channel synchronous rectifier to prevent body-diode conduction during shutdown. When SHDN is pulled low, VOUT discharges to 0V with no reverse current flow into VIN - eliminating battery drain and enabling safe hot-swap or power sequencing. This behavior requires no external Schottky diode; adding one defeats the disconnect function.
Can the LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF operate with input voltage greater than output voltage?
Yes, the LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF supports VIN > VOUT operation, maintaining regulation even when input exceeds programmed output (e.g., 4.2V Li-Po feeding 3.3V rail). However, efficiency and maximum output current decrease in this mode due to reduced duty cycle headroom and increased conduction losses. The device remains functional and protected, but optimal performance occurs when VIN < VOUT.
What is the difference between the LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF and the standard LTC3539EDCB#TRPBF?
The LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF is identical to the LTC3539EDCB#TRPBF in pinout, package, features, and electrical specifications except for switching frequency: LTC3539EDCB-2#TRPBF operates at a fixed 2MHz, whereas LTC3539EDCB#TRPBF runs at 1MHz. This difference dictates inductor selection (1.5–2.5µH for -2 vs. 3.3–4.7µH for base part) and impacts EMI profile, solution size, and light-load Burst Mode threshold behavior.
