Product details
Overview
LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-efficiency, 4V to 65V input, synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with integrated high-side P-channel and low-side N-channel MOSFETs, delivering up to 500mA output current, featuring 12µA no-load quiescent current, programmable peak current limit (100mA–1.2A), and 0.8V ±1% feedback reference - used in industrial control supplies and avionics power regulation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF pinout, LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF application, or LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin definitions, real-world application mappings, and validated alternative options for high-voltage, low-quiescent-current buck conversion in extended-temperature environments.
Technical Context
The LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF employs Burst Mode® operation with hysteretic feedback control, enabling ultra-low 12µA quiescent current at no load while maintaining regulation. Its internal P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side synchronous switches eliminate external diode losses and support 100% duty-cycle dropout operation down to VIN ≈ VOUT.
Peak current is set via resistor-to-ground on ISET (100kΩ–open), directly determining maximum average output current (up to 500mA), inductor size, and light-load ripple trade-offs. The RUN pin provides precise 1.21V enable threshold with 110mV hysteresis, and FBO enables master-slave paralleling for higher current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4V to 65V - supports wide-range industrial, automotive, and avionics inputs without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | Up to 500mA - maximum average output limited to half the programmable peak current (max 1.2A). |
| Quiescent Current | 12µA typical in Burst Mode® - enables multi-year battery life in always-on remote sensors. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.800V ±1% - enables precise adjustable outputs from 0.8V to VIN with minimal external components. |
| Operating Junction Temp | –40°C to +150°C - qualified for harsh-environment applications including engine bay and avionics enclosures. |
| Package Thermal Resistance | θJA = 43°C/W (DFN) - thermally enhanced 5mm × 3mm DFN with exposed GND pad for efficient PCB heat sinking. |
| Switch On-Resistance | Top switch: 1.00Ω, bottom switch: 0.53Ω - low RDS(on) minimizes conduction loss across full load range. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead (5mm × 3mm) plastic DFN with exposed GND pad (Pin 17), rated for –40°C to +150°C operation. Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (Pin 1) | Switch node | Connection point between internal high-side and low-side MOSFETs; ties to inductor; carries high dv/dt switching waveform. |
| VIN (Pin 3) | Main input supply | Accepts 4V–65V input; requires local ceramic bypass capacitor to GND for stability and EMI suppression. |
| RUN (Pin 5) | Enable control input | 1.21V rising threshold enables operation; 0.7V falling forces shutdown (5µA IQ); supports precision UVLO via resistor divider. |
| VPRG1/VPRG2 (Pins 6, 7) | Output voltage selection | Configure fixed 1.8V/3.3V/5V or adjustable mode by grounding or connecting to SS; eliminates external feedback resistors for standard outputs. |
| GND (Pins 8, 14, 16, 17) | Ground reference | Multiple GND pins and exposed pad ensure low-impedance return path; critical for thermal performance and noise immunity. |
| VFB (Pin 9) | Feedback input | Compares divided output voltage against 0.8V reference; connects directly to VOUT for fixed outputs or to external divider for adjustable mode. |
| SS (Pin 10) | Soft-start control | Capacitor-to-GND sets output ramp time (1ms per 16.5nF); internal 0.8ms default ensures controlled start-up without input droop. |
| ISET (Pin 11) | Peak current programming | Resistor-to-GND sets peak current threshold (100mA–1.2A); determines max output current, component sizing, and light-load ripple. |
| FBO (Pin 12) | Feedback comparator output | Open-drain output (20µA pull-up, 70Ω pull-down) enables paralleling multiple LTC3630s for >500mA total output. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Burst Mode® operation | Reduces no-load IQ to 12µA while maintaining regulation - essential for battery-powered and energy-harvesting systems. |
| Synchronous MOSFET integration | Eliminates external Schottky diode, improving efficiency by 5–10% at medium loads and enabling 100% duty-cycle dropout. |
| Programmable peak current limit | Adjusts max output current (100mA–1.2A) via single resistor - optimizes inductor/capacitor size and light-load ripple vs. efficiency trade-off. |
| Precision RUN pin threshold | 1.21V enable with 110mV hysteresis - enables robust, noise-immune input UVLO and system-level power sequencing. |
| Fixed-output configuration support | 1.8V/3.3V/5V selectable via VPRG1/VPRG2 - removes need for external feedback resistors, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3631EDHC#TRPBF | Same 4V–65V input, but adds programmable frequency (200kHz–2MHz) and external sync capability; higher IQ (25µA) in Burst Mode. | Preferred where EMI-sensitive environments require frequency dithering or synchronization to system clock. | Select when deterministic switching frequency or noise shaping is required; not drop-in due to different pinout and control logic. |
| LM5164QDDARQ1 | Automotive-grade (AEC-Q100), 4.5V–65V input, 500mA, but uses external MOSFETs; IQ = 15µA; no integrated low-side switch. | Required for ASIL-B automotive applications; supports higher ambient temperatures (125°C case) but needs more external components. | Choose for automotive qualification and design flexibility; not pin-compatible and lacks FBO paralleling support. |
Compared with LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF, LTC3631EDHC#TRPBF offers frequency control at the cost of higher quiescent current and non-pin-compatible layout, while LM5164QDDARQ1 meets automotive reliability standards but increases BOM count and forfeits integrated synchronous rectification and master-slave paralleling.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF?
The LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 70V, with guaranteed operation from 4V to 65V. It is designed for high-input-voltage applications such as industrial 48V systems, avionics 270V DC buses (with appropriate pre-regulation), and automotive cold-crank scenarios. Operation above 65V is not recommended for sustained use due to increased stress on internal MOSFETs and thermal limitations.
Does the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF support parallel operation for higher output current?
Yes, the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF supports master-slave paralleling via its FBO (Feedback Comparator Output) pin. Connecting the FBO of a master LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF to the VFB pins of one or more slave devices synchronizes regulation and shares load current. This method enables scalable output beyond 500mA while preserving individual device protection features like thermal shutdown and current limiting.
What is the purpose of the ISET pin on the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF?
The ISET pin on the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF sets the peak inductor current threshold via an external resistor to GND, directly controlling maximum average output current (up to 500mA). It also serves as a filter node: adding capacitance here trades light-load output voltage ripple for reduced efficiency. Leaving ISET open yields 1.2A peak (500mA avg); shorting to GND yields 0.12A peak (60mA avg).
How does the RUN pin function on the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF?
The RUN pin on the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF provides precise enable/disable control: rising voltage above 1.21V enables normal operation, falling below 1.10V disables switching (Burst Mode® sleep), and dropping below 0.7V forces shutdown (5µA IQ). An internal 2MΩ pull-up and 2µA current source allow simple UVLO implementation using a resistor divider from VIN, ensuring reliable power sequencing.
What package type and thermal characteristics apply to the LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF?
The LTC3630HDHC#TRPBF uses a 16-lead 5mm × 3mm plastic DFN package with exposed GND pad (Pin 17). Its thermal resistance is θJA = 43°C/W and θJC = 5°C/W. The exposed pad must be soldered to a PCB ground plane to achieve rated performance and ensure safe operation at full load across the –40°C to +150°C junction temperature range.
