Product details
Overview
LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-voltage, synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs, delivering up to 100mA output at fixed 3.3V, operating from 4.5V to 45V input, featuring 12µA quiescent current in Burst Mode® and internal overvoltage lockout up to 60V. It targets industrial control supplies and battery-operated devices requiring robust, low-power regulation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF pinout, LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF application, or LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.3V fixed output, 8-pin 3mm × 3mm DFN package with exposed thermal pad, programmable peak current limit (50–225mA), precise RUN pin threshold (1.21V rising), and no-compensation design for rapid implementation.
Technical Context
The LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF employs a hysteretic Burst Mode® control architecture with an internal 0.800V ±1% feedback reference and 5mV comparator hysteresis, enabling ultra-low quiescent current operation while maintaining regulation across load currents from 100µA to 100mA. Its dual-MOSFET synchronous rectification eliminates external diode losses.
Input protection includes undervoltage lockout (UVLO) at 3.75V (falling) and overvoltage lockout (OVLO) at 47V (rising), with sustained 60V surge tolerance. The device integrates soft-start via internal 0.75ms ramp or external SS pin capacitor, and supports adjustable hysteresis via HYST pin for controlled enable/disable sequencing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 45V - supports wide-range industrial and automotive power rails without pre-regulation |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1.2% - eliminates external resistor divider, reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity |
| Max Output Current | 100mA - sufficient for microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs in space-constrained systems |
| Quiescent Current | 12µA typical in Burst Mode® - enables multi-year battery life in always-on remote sensors |
| Peak Current Limit | Programmable 50mA to 225mA via ISET resistor - allows optimization of inductor size and efficiency at light loads |
| Overvoltage Protection | 60V surge tolerance with 47V OVLO threshold - protects against load dump transients in 24V/36V systems |
| Package | 8-lead 3mm × 3mm DFN with exposed GND pad - provides low thermal resistance (θJC = 3°C/W) for high ambient operation |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic DFN with exposed thermal pad (Pin 9), rated for –40°C to 125°C junction temperature. 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 for external inductor; carries high dv/dt switching waveform - requires tight layout and minimal trace length |
| VIN (Pin 2) | Main input supply | Accepts 4.5V–45V input; bypass capacitor required between VIN and GND for stability and EMI suppression |
| ISET (Pin 3) | Peak current programming | Sources 1µA; resistor to GND sets peak inductor current from 50mA (shorted) to 225mA (open) |
| SS (Pin 4) | Soft-start control | Sources 5µA; external capacitor sets output voltage ramp time - prevents input droop during startup |
| RUN (Pin 5) | Enable control | Active-high logic: ≥1.21V enables operation; ≤1.10V disables - precise threshold enables reliable brown-out detection |
| VOUT/VFB (Pin 6) | Output feedback | Internally connected to 3.3V output; no external divider needed - simplifies layout and improves noise immunity |
| HYST (Pin 7) | Run hysteresis output | Open-drain logic output pulled low when RUN < 1.2V - used to add external hysteresis to RUN pin via resistor divider |
| GND (Pins 8 & 9) | Ground reference | Pins 8 and 9 (exposed pad) are internally connected - pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal performance and EMI reduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF can withstand without damage?
The LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF has an absolute maximum VIN rating of 60V and includes internal overvoltage lockout (OVLO) that disables switching above 47V (rising). This allows the device to survive automotive load dump transients and industrial power surges while maintaining safe operation within its 4.5V–45V functional input range. Continuous operation above 45V is not recommended.
Does the LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF require external compensation components?
No, the LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF uses a proprietary hysteretic Burst Mode® control architecture that requires no external compensation components. Its internal feedback loop is inherently stable across all operating conditions and output capacitor types, eliminating the need for RC networks or complex loop tuning - significantly reducing design time and BOM count.
How is the output voltage set on the LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF?
The LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF features a factory-trimmed fixed 3.3V output. Pin 6 (VOUT/VFB) is internally connected to the regulated output, so no external resistor divider is required. This configuration ensures ±1.2% output accuracy over temperature and line, simplifies PCB layout, and improves noise rejection compared to adjustable versions.
Can the LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF operate with 100% duty cycle?
Yes, the LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF supports 100% duty cycle operation, allowing it to maintain regulation when VIN approaches VOUT (e.g., 3.6V input to 3.3V output). This capability is essential for maximizing battery runtime in portable equipment, as it enables usable energy extraction down to the lowest possible cell voltage before shutdown.
What thermal performance can be expected from the LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF in its DFN package?
The LTC3631EDD-3.3#TRPBF in the 3mm × 3mm DFN package achieves θJC = 3°C/W (junction-to-case) when the exposed thermal pad (Pin 9) is properly soldered to a minimum 100mm² copper pour on the PCB. With adequate board-level copper, it sustains 100mA continuous output at 85°C ambient - verified by thermal characterization in Linear Technology's datasheet Figure 1.
