Product details
Overview
LTC3619BIMSE#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator with programmable average input current limit, operating in constant-frequency current mode. It delivers 400mA on Channel 1 and 800mA on Channel 2 across 2.5V–5.5V input, features 0.6V feedback reference, 2.25MHz switching, and 100% duty cycle dropout support - ideal for USB-powered handheld devices and supercapacitor charging.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3619BIMSE#PBF datasheet, LTC3619BIMSE#PBF pinout, LTC3619BIMSE#PBF application, or LTC3619BIMSE#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include verified input current limit accuracy (±5%), independent soft-start per channel, dual PGOOD outputs, thermal performance in MSOP package (θJA = 45°C/W), and validated pulse-skipping operation at light loads.
Technical Context
The LTC3619BIMSE#PBF implements a dual-channel, in-phase, constant-frequency current-mode control architecture with shared 2.25MHz oscillator. Each channel uses independent error amplifiers, peak-current sensing via internal PFET/NFET switches, and dedicated soft-start ramping (0.95ms typical) to regulate output voltage against a precise 0.6V reference.
Input current limiting is achieved by summing scaled inductor current signals from both channels at the RLIM pin; when the integrated IRLIM current reaches 1V threshold, Channel 2's on-time is reduced while Channel 1 remains fully regulated - enabling high peak load delivery without collapsing a current-limited source like USB.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion and USB 2.0/3.0 bus power without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| Output Current Capability | Channel 1: 400mA; Channel 2: 800mA - enables independent powering of core logic and RF subsystems. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25MHz (typ) - allows use of compact 1µH–4.7µH surface-mount inductors and reduces output capacitor size. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 0.6V ±2% - enables low-output-voltage regulation (e.g., 1.2V, 1.8V) with standard resistor dividers. |
| Average Input Current Limit Accuracy | ±5% - ensures reliable compliance with USB 2.0 (500mA) and USB 3.0 (900mA) host port current limits. |
| Shutdown Quiescent Current | ≤1µA - preserves battery life in always-on standby modes for portable equipment. |
| Thermal Resistance (θJA) | 45°C/W (MSOP-10) - requires minimal PCB copper area for thermal management in space-constrained layouts. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC3619BIMSE#PBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 10-lead plastic MSOP package (3mm × 3mm footprint, 1.1mm height) with exposed pad (Pin 11) soldered to GND for optimal thermal dissipation and EMI reduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VFB1 (Pin 1) | Channel 1 feedback input | Connects to resistive divider on VOUT1; regulates output to 0.6V reference with ±2% accuracy. |
| RUN1 (Pin 2) | Channel 1 enable control | Logic-high (>0.4V) enables Channel 1; logic-low (<0.1V) forces shutdown with ≤1µA quiescent current. |
| RLIM (Pin 3) | Input current limit programming | Resistor-to-GND sets average input current limit (e.g., 116kΩ = 475mA); capacitor adds filtering for transient response tuning. |
| PGOOD1 (Pin 4) | Channel 1 power-good indicator | Open-drain output pulled low if VFB1 deviates >±5% from 0.6V; blanked for 90µs during startup. |
| SW1 (Pin 5) | Channel 1 switch node | Connects to inductor; swings between VIN and GND; requires low-ESR ceramic output capacitor at VOUT1. |
| VIN (Pin 6) | Main power input | Supplies both channels; must be decoupled with ≥10µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor close to pin. |
| SW2 (Pin 7) | Channel 2 switch node | Independent switch node for second buck stage; supports asymmetric inductor selection vs. Channel 1. |
| PGOOD2 (Pin 8) | Channel 2 power-good indicator | Functionally identical to PGOOD1 but monitors VFB2; enables sequencing or fault isolation in dual-rail systems. |
| RUN2 (Pin 9) | Channel 2 enable control | Independent enable/disable control for Channel 2; supports staggered startup or dynamic rail disabling. |
| VFB2 (Pin 10) | Channel 2 feedback input | Same 0.6V reference as VFB1; allows independent output voltage setting (e.g., 1.8V + 3.3V). |
| GND (Pin 11) | Power and signal ground | Exposed thermal pad; must be soldered to large PCB GND plane for thermal and noise performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable average input current limit | Set via single RLIM resistor (±5% accuracy) - prevents USB port overcurrent shutdown while sustaining high peak loads. |
| Dual independent soft-start | 0.95ms typical ramp per channel - eliminates inrush current stress on input capacitors and avoids system brownouts. |
| Pulse-skipping mode at light loads | Reduces switching losses below ~10mA load - maintains >80% efficiency at 100µA while minimizing audible noise and EMI. |
| 100% duty cycle low-dropout operation | Enables VOUT up to VIN − (IOUT × RDS(ON)_PFET) - extends battery runtime in deep discharge conditions. |
| Short-circuit protection | Forces extended bottom-FET conduction to safely discharge inductor - prevents current runaway during output shorts. |
| ±2% output voltage accuracy | Over full temperature range (–40°C to 125°C) - ensures stable core voltage for DSPs, FPGAs, and RF ICs without external trimming. |

|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62150ARGTR | Single-channel 1A buck; no input current limit; 2.5MHz fixed frequency; 0.6V reference. | Lacks dual output and programmable input current limiting - requires external circuitry for USB compliance. | Select only if single-rail design suffices and input current control is handled upstream. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC3619BIMSE#PBF?
The LTC3619BIMSE#PBF is specified for operation from –40°C to 125°C junction temperature. Its MSOP package has θJA = 45°C/W, so ambient operation up to 85°C is achievable with proper PCB copper area. This rating is guaranteed across the full range, unlike the commercial-grade LTC3619EMSE#PBF.
How does the input current limit function work on the LTC3619BIMSE#PBF?
The LTC3619BIMSE#PBF sums scaled inductor current signals from both channels at the RLIM pin. When the integrated current reaches 1V, Channel 2's on-time is reduced while Channel 1 remains regulated. Setting RLIM = 116kΩ configures a 475mA average input limit - critical for USB 2.0 compliance.
Can the LTC3619BIMSE#PBF operate with 100% duty cycle, and what is the minimum input voltage needed?
Yes, the LTC3619BIMSE#PBF supports 100% duty cycle for low-dropout operation. Minimum input voltage depends on load: for 3.3V output at 800mA, VIN must exceed 3.3V + (0.8A × 0.25Ω) ≈ 3.5V due to Channel 2's bottom-FET RDS(ON). Full regulation is maintained down to VIN = VOUT under light loads.
What are the key differences between the LTC3619BIMSE#PBF and LTC3619EMSE#PBF?
The LTC3619BIMSE#PBF guarantees ±5% input current limit accuracy and full –40°C to 125°C operation. The LTC3619EMSE#PBF is rated 0°C to 85°C with ±7% limit tolerance. Both share identical pinout, package, and functional behavior - making the 'B' grade mandatory for industrial and automotive-adjacent designs.
Does the LTC3619BIMSE#PBF require external compensation components?
No, the LTC3619BIMSE#PBF features internally compensated error amplifiers. Only standard external components are needed: input/output capacitors, power inductors, feedback resistors, RLIM resistor, and optional CLIM capacitor for input current limit response tuning - simplifying layout and reducing BOM count.
