Product details
Overview
LTC3560IS6#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator optimized for single-cell Li-Ion/Li-Polymer battery-powered systems. It delivers up to 800mA output current with 95% peak efficiency, 2.25MHz fixed switching frequency, and ±2% output voltage accuracy across –40°C to 125°C. Its 100% duty cycle enables low-dropout operation critical for battery life extension in portable media players and wireless modems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3560IS6#TRPBF pinout, LTC3560IS6#TRPBF application, or LTC3560IS6#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.5V–5.5V input range, 0.6V feedback reference enabling sub-1.8V outputs, Burst Mode™ operation with 16μA quiescent current, and TSOT-23-6 package compatibility with high-density portable layouts.
Technical Context
The LTC3560IS6#TRPBF employs a constant-frequency, current-mode control architecture with internal P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs. Peak inductor current is regulated via an error amplifier driving a current comparator, while slope compensation prevents subharmonic oscillation above 40% duty cycle without reducing peak current capability.
It supports three operating modes: Burst Mode™ (SYNC/MODE = GND), pulse-skipping PWM (SYNC/MODE = VIN), and external synchronization (1MHz–3MHz clock applied to SYNC/MODE). Shutdown draws <1μA, and soft-start ramps VOUT over 0.9ms to limit inrush current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports full discharge curve of single Li-Ion/Li-Polymer cells without brownout. |
| Output Current | Up to 800mA - sufficient for core logic rails in digital still cameras and cellular baseband processors. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25MHz (typical), synchronizable 1MHz–3MHz - enables use of ≤2.2μH inductors and 10μF ceramic capacitors. |
| Quiescent Current | 16μA in Burst Mode™ - extends battery runtime in standby states of portable instruments. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.6V ±2% - allows precise programming of low output voltages (e.g., 1.2V, 1.5V) using standard resistor ratios. |
| Efficiency | Up to 95% at 3.6VIN/1.8VOUT/300mA - minimizes thermal load in thermally constrained ThinSOT™ packages. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded applications requiring extended temperature reliability. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-lead TSOT-23 (ThinSOT™), 1mm profile, 2.9mm × 1.6mm footprint - optimized for space-constrained portable PCBs with minimal thermal mass.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (Pin 1) | Enable/Shutdown Control | Logic-high (>1.5V) enables regulation; logic-low (<0.3V) disables all circuitry and reduces supply current to <1μA. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power Ground Reference | Primary return path for VIN, SW, and feedback network - must be low-impedance and directly connected to power plane. |
| SW (Pin 3) | Switch Node | Drain connection of internal P- and N-channel MOSFETs - requires short, wide trace to minimize EMI and switching losses. |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Main Input Supply | Connects to battery or source rail; requires ≥10μF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| VFB (Pin 5) | Feedback Input | Monitors resistive divider output; regulates VOUT by comparing to 0.6V reference - enables remote sensing. |
| SYNC/MODE (Pin 6) | Mode Selection & Sync Input | GND = Burst Mode™; VIN = pulse-skipping; 1–3MHz square wave = synchronized PWM - no pull-up/down required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous Rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode - reduces conduction loss and improves light-load efficiency by >5% vs asynchronous designs. |
| 100% Duty Cycle Operation | Enables dropout regulation down to VIN – ILOAD×RDS(ON) - sustains output during battery voltage sag below target VOUT. |
| Ceramic Capacitor Stability | No ESR dependency in control loop - allows use of low-ESR X5R/X7R ceramics for <20mVP-P ripple and compact BOM. |
| Overtemperature Protection | Thermal shutdown at ~150°C junction - latches off both MOSFETs to prevent damage during sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
| Low-Noise Pulse-Skipping Mode | Disables Burst Mode™ when synchronized - eliminates low-frequency ripple that interferes with audio codec power rails. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRYR | 3MHz fixed frequency, 600mA output, 1.8V–6.5V input, 0.6V reference - lower max current, wider input range. | Optimized for higher-frequency, lower-current apps (e.g., wearables); lacks 100% duty cycle and Burst Mode™. | Select when board space demands >3MHz operation and load stays <600mA; verify thermal margin at 125°C. |
| MAX17503GCU+T | 2.2MHz, 1.2A output, 4.5V–36V input, adjustable soft-start - higher voltage/current, larger package (16-pin TQFN). | Targeted at industrial/high-voltage apps; not pin-compatible and requires external MOSFETs. | Choose only if input exceeds 5.5V or output current >800mA is needed; redesign PCB layout required. |
Compared with TPS62231DRYR and MAX17503GCU+T, the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF uniquely balances ultra-low quiescent current (16μA), 100% duty cycle, and industrial temperature rating in a 6-pin TSOT-23 - making it irreplaceable for space- and battery-life-constrained portable designs operating near battery minimum voltage.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF?
The LTC3560IS6#TRPBF delivers up to 800mA continuous output current under typical conditions (VIN = 3.6V, VOUT = 1.8V, TA = 25°C, with proper thermal layout). At elevated temperatures or higher duty cycles (e.g., dropout), derating applies - peak inductor current is limited to 1.5A (typical), and thermal limits constrain sustained current in high-ambient environments. The LTC3560IS6#TRPBF datasheet specifies IPK = 1.0–2.0A depending on VIN and duty cycle.
Does the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF require an external Schottky diode?
No, the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF does not require an external Schottky diode. It integrates both a P-channel main switch and an N-channel synchronous rectifier, eliminating conduction losses and reverse recovery issues associated with discrete diodes. This integration directly enables its 95% peak efficiency and simplifies PCB layout - a key advantage confirmed in the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF functional diagram and Applications Information section.
How is the output voltage programmed on the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF?
The output voltage of the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF is set using an external resistive divider connected between VOUT and GND, with the midpoint fed to the VFB pin. The formula is VOUT = 0.6V × (1 + R2/R1), where R2 connects to VOUT and R1 connects to GND. This 0.6V reference allows precise generation of common low voltages (e.g., 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V) using standard 1% resistors - a design method explicitly illustrated in Figure 2 of the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF datasheet.
What is the purpose of the SYNC/MODE pin on the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF?
The SYNC/MODE pin on the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF serves dual functions: mode selection and external clock synchronization. Grounding it enables Burst Mode™ operation (16μA IQ); connecting it to VIN selects pulse-skipping PWM; applying a 1MHz–3MHz square wave synchronizes switching frequency. This pin directly controls operational behavior - no external components are needed, and floating is prohibited per the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF Pin Functions description.
Is the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF compatible with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, the LTC3560IS6#TRPBF is fully compatible with ceramic output capacitors. Its current-mode control loop does not rely on capacitor ESR for stability, allowing use of low-ESR X5R/X7R ceramics to achieve <20mVP-P ripple and compact form factor. The LTC3560IS6#TRPBF Applications Information section explicitly recommends ceramic capacitors and provides layout guidance to avoid input ringing - confirming direct compatibility without compensation changes.
