Product details
Overview
LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a triple monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator IC with one 1.2A and two 600mA buck outputs, operating from 2.5V to 5.5V input, programmable 1MHz–3MHz switching frequency, and independent 800mV–425mV feedback references. It delivers stable multi-rail power for portable SoC platforms requiring dynamic voltage scaling.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF pinout, LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF application, or LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include per-buck enable-programmable reference, slave-mode parallel operation capability, Burst Mode® quiescent current <100µA, and thermal protection with 125°C junction limit.
Technical Context
The LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF integrates three current-mode buck regulators sharing a single oscillator architecture with selectable pulse-skipping or Burst Mode® operation. Each regulator features internal compensation, 100% duty-cycle dropout support, and independent EN-pin-based reference programming via 25mV decrements.
Its slave configuration logic allows FB2 or FB3 tied to SVIN to disable local control and synchronize SW2 or SW3 to a master buck (Buck1 or Buck2), enabling 1.8A (Buck1 + Buck2) or dual 1.2A (Buck1 + Buck2, Buck3 standalone) output configurations without external gate drivers or timing alignment circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, USB, and wide-input portable power rails. |
| Output Currents | 1.2A (Buck1), 600mA (Buck2), 600mA (Buck3) - enables independent powering of CPU core, I/O, and memory rails. |
| Feedback Reference Range | 425mV to 800mV in 25mV steps - allows precise VOUT setting (e.g., 1.2V, 1.8V, 2.5V) using standard resistor dividers. |
| Switching Frequency | 1MHz to 3MHz (programmable) or fixed 2.25MHz - permits use of sub-3mm inductors and low-ESR ceramic capacitors. |
| Quiescent Current | <100µA (all bucks in Burst Mode) - extends battery life in always-on subsystems like RTC or sensor hubs. |
| Protection Features | Overtemperature shutdown (150°C), short-circuit current limiting, PGOOD flag - ensures robust operation in unattended embedded systems. |
| Package | 20-lead (3mm × 4mm) QFN with exposed GND pad - provides θJA = 43°C/W thermal performance for high-density PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-lead (3mm × 4mm) plastic QFN (LFYW), thermally enhanced with exposed GND pad (Pin 21) soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal dissipation (θJA = 43°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN1, EN2, EN3 | Enable & reference programming inputs | Each toggled up to 15× to decrement respective FB reference by 25mV; also enable/disable corresponding buck stage. |
| FB1, FB2, FB3 | Feedback inputs | Monitor output voltage divider; pulling FB2/FB3 to SVIN configures Buck2/Buck3 as slaves to Buck1/Buck2 respectively. |
| SW1, SW2, SW3 | Power switch nodes | Drive external inductors; SW2/SW3 go Hi-Z when configured as slaves unless master is active. |
| PVIN1, PVIN2, PVIN3 | Per-buck input supply pins | Decoupled individually to PGNDx; allow independent input filtering and reduce cross-regulator noise coupling. |
| PGND1, PGND2, PGND3 | Per-buck power ground returns | Minimize ground bounce in high-dI/dt paths; must be connected to local output capacitor negatives. |
| MODE | Mode selection & sync input | Tied to SVIN → Burst Mode; tied to SGND → pulse-skipping; driven externally → synchronizes all three bucks to same clock. |
| RT | Oscillator timing resistor | Resistor to GND sets free-running frequency (1–3MHz); tied to SVIN → fixed 2.25MHz operation. |
| PGOOD | Open-drain power-good flag | Active-low when all enabled outputs reach ±8% of target; logical AND of individual buck PGOOD signals. |
| SVIN, SGND | Main bias supply & ground | SVIN powers internal LDOs and logic; SGND is signal ground reference for FB, EN, MODE, RT pins. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent reference programming | Each buck's output voltage set via EN pin toggles-no external DAC or I²C interface required for VOUT adjustment. |
| Slave-mode parallel operation | Buck2 and Buck3 can be ganged to Buck1 or Buck2 respectively, enabling 1.8A or dual 1.2A outputs without layout changes. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | <100µA total in Burst Mode with all bucks active-critical for battery-powered devices with long sleep cycles. |
| Internally compensated control loops | No external compensation components needed-reduces BOM count and design validation effort for each buck stage. |
| Robust thermal management | Thermal shutdown at 150°C with automatic restart at 125°C-prevents permanent damage during transient overloads. |
Applications
| Mobile Application Processor Power | Multi-Rail FPGA Core/I/O Supply |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of each buck regulator in the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF?
The LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF provides 1.2A from Buck1 (SW1), and 600mA each from Buck2 (SW2) and Buck3 (SW3). When configured in slave mode-FB2 pulled to SVIN and EN2 high-Buck2 operates in parallel with Buck1, delivering up to 1.8A total. Similarly, Buck3 can slave to Buck2 for additional current stacking. Peak inductor current limits are 2.0A (Buck1) and 1.0A (Buck2/Buck3) under typical conditions.
How does the EN pin programming work on the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF?
Each EN pin (EN1, EN2, EN3) on the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF serves dual purpose: enabling its respective buck regulator and decrementing its feedback reference voltage in 25mV steps. Toggling the pin low-to-high up to 15 times reduces the internal reference from 800mV down to 425mV. The counter resets after 125µs high time or 170µs low time. No external controller or I²C interface is needed-programming is purely hardware-based and non-volatile across power cycles.
Can the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF operate with only one or two buck regulators enabled?
Yes, the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF supports partial enablement: any combination of Buck1, Buck2, or Buck3 can be independently enabled or disabled via their EN pins. When disabled, the corresponding SW pin goes Hi-Z, FB pin is high-impedance, and quiescent current drops proportionally. All three bucks can be shut down simultaneously for <1µA shutdown current, preserving battery charge in deep-sleep states.
What thermal performance can be expected from the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF in its 3mm × 4mm QFN package?
The LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF in the LFYW (3mm × 4mm) QFN package has a specified θJA of 43°C/W under JEDEC-standard PCB conditions. With the exposed GND pad properly soldered to a ≥1cm² copper pour, junction temperature rise remains within safe limits up to ~1.5W total dissipation. Thermal shutdown activates at 150°C and auto-restarts at 125°C, ensuring reliability during transient overloads without manual intervention.
Does the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF support synchronization to an external clock source?
Yes, the LTC3569EUDC#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the MODE pin. Applying a logic-level square wave (min. 100ns pulse width) to MODE synchronizes all three buck regulators to the external frequency, eliminating beat frequencies and simplifying EMI filtering. Synchronization range is 1.2MHz to 3MHz. When synchronized, the device automatically operates in pulse-skipping mode regardless of MODE DC level.
