Product details
Overview
LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC converter optimized for single Li-Ion battery-powered portable systems. It delivers up to 500mA output current, supports pin-selectable 1.28V or 1.87V output voltages, operates from 2.5V to 5.5V input, achieves up to 96% efficiency, and features 2.25MHz fixed-frequency current-mode control with Burst Mode® operation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF pinout, LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF application, or LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low 26µA quiescent current in active mode, 100% duty cycle low-dropout capability, integrated power MOSFETs eliminating external Schottky diodes, ±2% output voltage accuracy, and 2mm × 2mm 6-lead DFN package with exposed thermal pad.
Technical Context
The LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF implements a constant-frequency, current-mode synchronous buck architecture with internal P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs. Its control loop compares a divided VOUT against a precise 0.6V reference using an error amplifier, adjusting peak inductor current per cycle to maintain regulation.
Burst Mode® operation activates under light loads, intermittently enabling switching cycles to sustain regulation while reducing supply current to 26µA; shutdown draws <1µA. The device integrates internal soft-start (1ms ramp), undervoltage lockout (2.0V falling threshold), and overtemperature protection, and is explicitly designed for stable operation with ceramic output capacitors.

Pinout & Package
The LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 2mm × 2mm 6-lead plastic DFN package with an exposed ground pad (Pin 7) that must be soldered to PCB ground for electrical integrity and optimal thermal performance (θJA = 40°C/W when properly mounted).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT (Pin 1) | Feedback node | Connects to output capacitor; internally divided to compare against 0.6V reference for regulation |
| VIN (Pin 2) | Main power input | Accepts 2.5V–5.5V supply; requires local 10µF ceramic decoupling to GND |
| GND (Pin 3) | Analog/digital ground | Reference return for internal circuitry; connects to PCB ground plane |
| SW (Pin 4) | Switch node | Drain connection of internal P- and N-channel MOSFETs; drives external inductor |
| VSEL (Pin 5) | Output voltage select | Ground → 1.28V output; floating or tied to VIN → 1.87V output |
| RUN (Pin 6) | Enable/disable control | High (>1.5V) enables converter; low (<0.3V) forces shutdown drawing <1µA |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 7) | Power ground (PGND) | Mandatory solder connection to PCB ground for thermal conduction and low-impedance return path |

FAQ
What is the function of the VSEL pin on the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF?
The VSEL pin on the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF selects the regulated output voltage: tying VSEL to GND sets VOUT to 1.28V, while leaving it floating or connecting it to VIN selects 1.87V. This pin eliminates external feedback resistors and enables simple dual-voltage system design. The LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF's internal resistor divider and reference ensure ±2% accuracy across temperature and line conditions for both settings.
Does the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF require an external Schottky diode?
No, the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF does not require an external Schottky diode. It integrates both P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side synchronous power MOSFETs, enabling full synchronous rectification. This design eliminates reverse-recovery losses and forward voltage drop associated with external diodes, contributing directly to the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF's up to 96% efficiency and reduced thermal load.
What is the minimum recommended input voltage for reliable operation of the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF?
The LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF has an absolute minimum input voltage of –0.3V, but its functional operating range begins at 2.5V. Below approximately 2.0V, the undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit disables the converter to prevent unstable operation. Therefore, the minimum recommended input voltage for sustained regulation is 2.5V, with reliable startup occurring above 2.0V (rising threshold). The LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF maintains 100% duty cycle down to VIN ≈ VOUT + 0.1V within this range.
How does Burst Mode® operation improve battery life in the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF?
Burst Mode® operation in the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF reduces quiescent current to 26µA during light loads by intermittently enabling switching cycles only as needed to maintain output regulation. This minimizes gate charge and switching losses dominant at low currents, significantly extending battery runtime in standby or idle states. The LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF exits Burst Mode® seamlessly as load increases, ensuring no performance penalty during active operation.
What thermal considerations apply to the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF's exposed pad?
The exposed pad (Pin 7) of the LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF is PGND and must be soldered to a PCB ground plane to achieve the specified θJA of 40°C/W. Failure to do so raises thermal resistance dramatically - potentially exceeding the 125°C maximum junction temperature even at moderate loads. Proper soldering ensures both electrical grounding and efficient heat conduction away from the die, which is critical for maintaining reliability in compact portable enclosures where airflow is limited. The LTC3563EDC#TRMPBF includes overtemperature shutdown at ~150°C as a final safety measure.
