Product details
Overview
LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-efficiency, 4V–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 - deployed in industrial control supplies and battery-operated avionics systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF pinout, LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF application, or LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (16-lead MSOP, –40°C to 150°C), validated pin functions, confirmed efficiency behavior across 1mA–500mA loads, exact RUN threshold (1.21V rising), and real-world parallel operation capability via FBO pin - all grounded in Linear Technology's official LTC3630 datasheet Rev. D.
Technical Context
The LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF employs Burst Mode® control architecture with hysteretic feedback, enabling ultra-low 12µA sleep-mode supply current while maintaining regulation. Its internal P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side switches eliminate external gate drivers and support 100% duty-cycle dropout operation down to VIN ≈ VOUT.
Peak current is set by an external resistor on ISET (5µA current source), directly determining maximum average output current (IOUT_MAX = 0.5 × IPEAK). The RUN pin provides precise enable/disable control with 110mV hysteresis (1.21V rise / 1.10V fall), and the FBO pin enables master-slave current sharing across multiple LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF units without external logic.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4V to 65V - supports wide-input industrial, automotive, and avionics power rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | Up to 500mA - determined by peak current limit (IPEAK = 100mA–1.2A); max IOUT = 0.5 × IPEAK. |
| Quiescent Current | 12µA typical at no load - enables multi-year battery life in always-on portable instruments. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.800V ±1% - enables accurate adjustable outputs from 0.8V to VIN using external resistive divider. |
| Operating Temp Range | –40°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and high-temp industrial environments. |
| Switching Architecture | Burst Mode® - eliminates switching at light loads, minimizing idle power loss without external enable control. |
| Package | 16-lead MSOP (MSE16), exposed pad (Pin 17) tied to GND - θJA = 45°C/W, optimized for thermal reliability in compact layouts. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead plastic MSOP (MSE16), 3mm × 4.9mm footprint, 0.75mm profile, thermally enhanced with exposed GND pad (Pin 17) requiring PCB soldering for thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (1) | Switch node | Connection to internal high-side P-MOSFET drain and low-side N-MOSFET source - ties to inductor; handles full switching voltage/current stress. |
| VIN (3) | Main input supply | Accepts 4V–65V input; requires local ceramic bypass capacitor to GND for stability and EMI suppression. |
| RUN (5) | Enable control input | 1.21V rising threshold enables operation; 1.10V falling threshold disables - supports precision UVLO via resistor divider from VIN. |
| VPRG1/VPRG2 (6,7) | Output voltage selection | Configure fixed 1.8V/3.3V/5V or adjustable mode by grounding or tying to SS - eliminates external feedback resistors for standard outputs. |
| GND (8,14,16,17) | Ground reference & thermal path | Pins 8/14/16 are signal GND; Pin 17 is exposed thermal pad - must be soldered to PCB ground plane for θJC = 10°C/W performance. |
| VFB (9) | Feedback comparator input | Monitors divided output voltage against 0.8V reference - direct connection for fixed outputs; resistive divider for adjustable outputs. |
| SS (10) | Soft-start timing control | Capacitor-to-GND sets output ramp time (1ms per 16.5nF); floating defaults to 0.8ms internal soft-start - prevents input droop during startup. |
| ISET (11) | Peak current programming | Resistor-to-GND sets IPEAK (100mA–1.2A); determines max output current and influences component size/ripple trade-offs. |
| FBO (12) | Feedback comparator open-drain output | Enables paralleling of multiple LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF units - connect master FBO to slave VFB pins for current sharing. |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating junction temperature range for the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF?
The LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF is specified and production-tested over –40°C to +150°C junction temperature. This H-grade qualification ensures reliable operation in under-hood automotive, industrial motor drives, and avionics enclosures where ambient temperatures exceed 105°C. Thermal derating above 125°C is documented in the datasheet's "Thermal Considerations" section.
How does the ISET pin on the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF set output current capability?
The ISET pin on the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF sources a precise 5µA current (reduced to 1µA in sleep mode) that develops a voltage across an external resistor to ground. This voltage directly programs the peak inductor current comparator threshold, ranging from 100mA (RISET = 0Ω) to 1.2A (RISET open). Since max average output current equals half the peak current, ISET effectively sets the 500mA limit of the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF.
Can the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF be used in parallel to increase output current?
Yes - the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF supports current sharing via its FBO (feedback comparator output) pin. Connecting the FBO of one "master" LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF to the VFB pins of one or more "slave" LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF units forces all devices to regulate to the same output voltage, enabling balanced current distribution and total output exceeding 500mA without external current-sharing circuitry.
What is the function of the VPRG1 and VPRG2 pins on the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF?
VPRG1 and VPRG2 on the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF configure internal feedback resistor networks to deliver fixed 1.8V, 3.3V, or 5V outputs without external resistors. Shorting both to GND enables adjustable mode (0.8V–VIN); tying VPRG1 to SS and VPRG2 to GND selects 5V; VPRG1 to GND and VPRG2 to SS selects 3.3V; both to SS selects 1.8V - reducing component count and noise susceptibility.
Does the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF require external compensation components?
No - the LTC3630HMSE#TRPBF uses a hysteretic Burst Mode® control architecture with internal compensation. It operates stably with only input and output capacitors plus an inductor, eliminating the need for external compensation networks, loop compensation resistors, or capacitors - simplifying layout and improving reliability across temperature and load variations.
