Product details
Overview
LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-efficiency, constant-frequency, current-mode synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator optimized for single Li-Ion or 3.3V–5.5V input systems. It delivers up to 1.25A output current with 96% peak efficiency, 20μA quiescent current in active mode, and ≤1μA shutdown current - enabling extended battery life in portable electronics. Its 2.25MHz switching frequency supports compact 1.1μH inductors and ceramic capacitors.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF pinout, LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF application, or LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 0.6V reference for low-output-voltage regulation (e.g., 1.2V–3.3V), 100% duty-cycle dropout operation, integrated P/N-channel MOSFETs eliminating external Schottky diodes, and thermal performance in the 6-lead DFN package (θJA = 64°C/W).
Technical Context
The LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF employs a proprietary current-mode control architecture with internal slope compensation that maintains stable operation across all duty cycles - including >40% - without reducing peak inductor current. Its Burst Mode® operation dynamically disables switching circuitry during light loads, reducing supply current to 20μA while sustaining regulation.
It integrates both main (P-channel) and synchronous (N-channel) power switches with matched RDS(ON) of 0.15Ω (typ) per FET in the DFN package. Overtemperature protection shuts down both switches when junction temperature exceeds ~150°C, and short-circuit behavior includes extended bottom-FET conduction to safely decay inductor current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports full discharge range of single-cell Li-Ion (2.7V–4.2V) and fixed 3.3V/5V rails. |
| Output Current | 1.25A continuous - sufficient for core logic, RF transceivers, or display drivers in handheld devices. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25MHz (typ) - enables use of sub-2mm surface-mount inductors and minimizes EMI filter size. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.6V ±2% - allows precise, low-noise output voltage setting from 0.6V to 5.5V via external resistor divider. |
| Quiescent Current | 20μA (active), ≤1μA (shutdown) - critical for always-on subsystems and battery runtime extension. |
| Duty Cycle Range | 0% to 100% - supports ultra-low dropout operation when input approaches output voltage. |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 64°C/W (DFN) - requires minimal PCB copper area for thermal management at full load. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-Lead (2mm × 3mm) Plastic DFN with exposed pad (Pin 7 = SGND), 1mm profile, RoHS-compliant, tape-and-reel packaging.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main power input | Accepts 2.5V–5.5V; must be decoupled with ≥10μF ceramic capacitor close to pin and PGND. |
| SW (Pin 1) | Switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high dv/dt square wave - routing must avoid sensitive analog nodes (e.g., VFB). |
| VFB (Pin 4) | Feedback input | Monitors output via resistive divider; 0.6V reference sets regulation point; high-impedance (±30nA bias). |
| PGND (Pin 2) | Power ground | Return path for CIN, COUT, and inductor; must be low-inductance connection to exposed pad. |
| RUN (Pin 6) | Enable control | Active-high: >1.5V enables, <0.3V disables; draws ≤1μA in shutdown; must not float. |
| SGND (Pins 5, 7) | Signal ground | Reference for VFB, RUN, and internal error amplifier; separate from PGND to minimize noise coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode - reduces BOM count, improves efficiency by ~3–5% at medium loads. |
| Burst Mode® operation | Reduces quiescent current to 20μA at light loads while maintaining tight output regulation (<±1% line/load). |
| 100% duty cycle capability | Extends usable battery life by regulating down to VIN – ILOAD×RDS(ON) - e.g., 2.7V input → 2.5V output at 1.25A with 0.15Ω RDS(ON). |
| Integrated slope compensation | Maintains loop stability at high duty cycles without sacrificing peak inductor current or requiring external components. |
| Overtemperature protection | Shuts down both MOSFETs above ~150°C junction temperature - prevents thermal runaway during overload or poor heatsinking. |
Applications
| Cellular Telephones | Wireless Modems |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Powering baseband processor and RF transceiver from single Li-Ion cell (2.7V–4.2V). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary buck regulator delivering 1.2V/1.8V/2.5V core and I/O supplies with fast transient response to burst traffic. Use Value: 96% efficiency at 500mA and 20μA quiescent current extend talk time and standby duration beyond competing 2MHz regulators. |

Use Value: Low-profile DFN package (2mm × 3mm × 1mm) fits constrained board space; Burst Mode® sustains >85% efficiency down to 1mA load. |
| Digital Still Cameras | Portable Instruments |
Use Scenario: Generating 1.8V for image sensor and 3.3V for memory interface in battery-powered DSLR or mirrorless camera. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-rail power source with independent soft-start timing (0.9ms typ) preventing inrush-induced system reset. Use Value: 100% duty cycle operation maintains 1.8V output even as battery drops to 2.0V - avoids premature brownout shutdown. |
Use Scenario: Regulating 2.5V for precision ADC/DAC and microcontroller in handheld test equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise, high-PSRR buck converter where VFB node isolation and SGND/PGND separation minimize measurement error.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRVR | 2.25MHz, 1.2A, 0.6V ref, but 25μA IQ (vs 20μA); no Burst Mode - uses PWM-only at light loads. | Higher light-load power loss; less suitable for multi-day battery standby. | Prefer LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF when >100-hour standby is required and layout allows DFN thermal pad soldering. |
| MAX17503GTA+ | 2.2MHz, 1.5A, wider 4.5V–60V input, but 100μA IQ and larger 16-pin TQFN package. | Designed for industrial/high-voltage inputs - over-specified for Li-Ion portable apps. | Choose LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF for cost-sensitive, space-constrained, single-cell battery designs prioritizing ultra-low IQ. |
Compared with TPS62231DRVR and MAX17503GTA+, the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF delivers superior light-load efficiency via Burst Mode®, lower quiescent current, and smaller footprint - making it optimal for portable Li-Ion systems where battery runtime and PCB area are critical constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF?
The LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF is rated for 1.25A continuous output current under typical conditions (TA ≤ 85°C, proper PCB thermal design). Peak inductor current reaches 2.0A (typ), supporting transient loads. Derating is required above 85°C ambient or with inadequate copper pour on the exposed thermal pad (Pin 7/SGND).
Does the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF require an external Schottky diode?
No. The LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF integrates both P-channel main and N-channel synchronous rectifier MOSFETs, eliminating the need for an external Schottky diode. This reduces component count, PCB area, and conduction losses - contributing to its 96% peak efficiency.
How does Burst Mode® operation improve battery life in the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF?
Burst Mode® reduces the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF's quiescent current to 20μA during light loads by intermittently disabling switching and bias circuitry. This extends battery runtime significantly - e.g., in cellular phone standby mode - while maintaining output regulation within ±1%, unlike skip-cycle modes that cause higher output ripple.
What is the recommended minimum output capacitance for stable operation of the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF?
The LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF is stable with ceramic output capacitors ≥22μF (X5R/X7R dielectric). Lower ESR improves transient response and reduces output ripple (ΔVOUT ≈ ΔIL × ESR + ΔIL/(8 × f × COUT)). For 1.25A loads, 22μF–47μF is typical; tantalum or polymer caps may be used if ESR > 10mΩ is acceptable.
Can the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF operate with 100% duty cycle, and what are the implications?
Yes - the LTC3564IDCB#TRPBF supports 100% duty cycle to maintain regulation as input voltage drops near the output level. In this mode, output voltage equals VIN minus ILOAD × RDS(ON) (0.15Ω typ). Power dissipation rises sharply; thermal analysis is essential - e.g., at 1.2A and 2.7VIN, PD ≈ 216mW, requiring θJA < 58°C/W to stay below 125°C junction.
