Product details
Overview
LTC3565EMSE#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a constant-frequency, synchronous step-down DC/DC converter designed for medium-power portable applications. It operates from 2.5V to 5.5V input, delivers up to 1.25A output current, supports up to 4MHz switching frequency, features adjustable 0.6V–5.5V output voltage, and integrates low-RDS(ON) P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs (0.15Ω / 0.13Ω). It powers core rails in digital cameras and cellular handsets where compact size and high efficiency at light load are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3565EMSE#PBF datasheet, LTC3565EMSE#PBF pinout, LTC3565EMSE#PBF application, or LTC3565EMSE#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its Burst Mode™ IQ of 40µA, 10-lead MSOP package with exposed pad, 0.6V feedback reference, ±7% PGOOD threshold, and RT-programmable oscillator enabling optimization of inductor/capacitor size versus efficiency trade-offs.
Technical Context
The LTC3565EMSE#PBF employs a current-mode control architecture with external compensation via the ITH pin, enabling stable loop response across wide load and output capacitor ranges. Its dual supply design separates PVIN (power path) from SVIN (signal logic), requiring SVIN ≥ PVIN and supporting pre-biased output startup.
Three selectable operating modes-Burst Mode™ (40µA IQ), pulse-skipping, and forced continuous-are controlled by the SYNC/MODE pin voltage relative to SVIN. The device enters 100% duty-cycle dropout when VIN approaches VOUT and includes undervoltage lockout (1.9V to 2.2V) and short-circuit protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, and multi-cell alkaline/NiMH battery inputs |
| IOUT Max | 1.25A - sufficient for powering FPGA I/O banks, camera ISPs, or baseband processors |
| fSW Max | 4MHz - enables use of sub-1mm-height inductors (e.g., 1.0–2.2µH) and 10–22µF ceramic output capacitors |
| VFB | 0.6V ±2% - sets output via resistor divider; allows precise 1.2V, 1.8V, 3.3V, or custom rail generation |
| RDS(ON) Top/Bottom | 0.15Ω / 0.13Ω (MSE) - minimizes conduction loss at full load; enables >95% peak efficiency at 3.6V→1.8V/1.25A |
| IQ (Burst Mode) | 40µA - extends battery runtime in standby/sleep states without compromising transient response |
| PGOOD Threshold | ±7% of VOUT - provides reliable power-good signaling for system sequencing and fault detection |
| Shutdown Current | <1µA - ensures negligible drain during deep sleep or system off states |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead Plastic MSOP (MSE) with exposed thermal pad (Pin 11 = GND), 3mm × 3mm footprint, 1.1mm max height - optimized for space-constrained handheld PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1. RT | Timing resistor connection | Sets oscillator frequency (1.3–4MHz) via external resistor to GND; enables size/efficiency tuning |
| 2. RUN | Enable control input | High >1.5V enables regulation; low <0.3V forces shutdown (<1µA IQ); must not float |
| 3. SYNC/MODE | Mode selection & sync input | Voltage level selects Burst Mode™ (SVIN), pulse skip (GND), or forced continuous (0.5×SVIN); accepts external clock up to 4MHz |
| 4. SW | Switch node | Connects to inductor; swings between PVIN and GND; requires low-inductance layout to minimize EMI |
| 5. GND | Main power ground | Reference for PVIN, SVIN, and output filter; exposed pad (Pin 11) must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical performance |
| 6. PVIN | Main power input | Supplies high-current switch path; requires local 10µF+ ceramic decoupling close to pin |
| 7. SVIN | Signal power supply | Powers internal logic and error amplifier; must be ≥ PVIN and independently decoupled |
| 8. PGOOD | Open-drain status output | Pulled low when VOUT deviates >±7%; 40µs blanking on turn-on prevents false triggering |
| 9. VFB | Feedback input | Compares divided VOUT to 0.6V reference; sets output voltage via R1/R2 divider |
| 10. ITH | Error amplifier compensation | Controls peak inductor current; external RC network sets loop bandwidth and phase margin |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62130ARGTR | Fixed 3.3V output; 3.6V–17V input; 3A rating; no RT programming; lower IQ (18µA) | Not adjustable-requires redesign for non-3.3V rails; better suited for higher-input industrial supplies | Select if fixed 3.3V output and wider input range are acceptable and PCB layout allows larger 3mm × 3mm QFN |
| MP2143DJ-LF-Z | 2.5V–5.5V input; 3A rating; 2.2MHz fixed frequency; no Burst Mode™; higher RDS(ON) (0.18Ω/0.12Ω) | Lacks ultra-low-IQ mode-unsuitable for battery standby; higher conduction loss at 1.25A | Choose only if 3A headroom and simpler fixed-frequency control outweigh efficiency and light-load IQ requirements |
Compared with TPS62130ARGTR and MP2143DJ-LF-Z, the LTC3565EMSE#PBF uniquely combines adjustable output, 4MHz programmability, 40µA Burst Mode™ IQ, and dual-supply (PVIN/SVIN) isolation-making it optimal for space- and battery-life-constrained portable designs requiring multiple rail voltages.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported switching frequency for the LTC3565EMSE#PBF?
The LTC3565EMSE#PBF supports up to 4MHz switching frequency, programmable via the RT pin resistor. While 4MHz operation is guaranteed by design, production testing covers 1.3–1.7MHz; higher frequencies require validation per application conditions including minimum on-time and duty cycle constraints (fO(MAX) ≈ 6.67 × VOUT/VIN(MAX) MHz).
Does the LTC3565EMSE#PBF support pre-biased output startup?
Yes, the LTC3565EMSE#PBF supports pre-biased output startup. Its control architecture prevents reverse current flow during start-up into an already charged output rail, making it suitable for systems with multi-rail sequencing or hot-swap requirements without external diode protection.
What is the function of the separate PVIN and SVIN pins on the LTC3565EMSE#PBF?
PVIN supplies the high-current power switches, while SVIN powers the internal analog and digital control circuitry. This separation isolates noise-sensitive feedback and error amplifier paths from switching transients, improving stability and noise immunity-especially critical when using ceramic output capacitors.
How does the SYNC/MODE pin configure operating modes on the LTC3565EMSE#PBF?
The SYNC/MODE pin configures three modes: tie to SVIN for Burst Mode™ (40µA IQ), tie to GND for pulse-skipping, or bias to 0.5×SVIN for forced continuous operation. It also accepts external clock signals up to 4MHz for synchronization-enabling EMI reduction in noise-sensitive systems.
What thermal considerations apply to the LTC3565EMSE#PBF in MSOP package?
The LTC3565EMSE#PBF in 10-lead MSOP has θJA = 40°C/W and θJC = 10°C/W. The exposed pad (Pin 11) must be soldered to a PCB thermal plane. For 1.25A continuous output at 3.6V→1.8V, junction temperature rise is ~25°C above ambient-ensuring reliable operation within the –40°C to 125°C junction range when layout guidelines are followed.
