Product details
Overview
LTC3631EDD-5#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 current at a fixed 5V output, operating from 4.5V to 45V input, featuring 12µA no-load quiescent current and Burst Mode® operation for ultra-low-power regulation in battery- and industrial-supply applications.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF pinout, LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF application, or LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin functions, real-world efficiency behavior across load and input voltage, confirmed alternative options, and supply-chain support details tailored for embedded power design and long-lifecycle industrial deployment.
Technical Context
The LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF implements a hysteretic Burst Mode® control architecture with an internal 0.800V ±1% feedback reference and 5mV hysteresis, enabling automatic transition between active burst cycles and sleep mode. Its peak current limit is programmable via ISET pin (50mA–225mA), directly determining maximum average output current (up to 112mA).
It integrates complementary P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side MOSFETs with typical on-resistances of 3.0Ω and 1.5Ω, respectively, and features internal overvoltage lockout (47V trip, 50V max) and undervoltage lockout (3.75V–4.5V range), allowing safe operation under 60V transient surges while maintaining regulation across wide input ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0V ±1.5% (4.94V–5.09V over temperature and line) |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 45V continuous operation; withstands 60V transients without damage |
| No-Load Quiescent Current | 12µA typical - enables multi-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes |
| Max Output Current | 100mA continuous load - limited by thermal design and 225mA peak switch current |
| Feedback Reference | 0.800V ±1% - sets precise output regulation threshold independent of external resistor tolerance |
| Overvoltage Lockout | 47V rising threshold (min), 50V falling threshold (max) - protects against automotive load dump and industrial surge events |
| Package | 8-lead 3mm × 3mm DFN with exposed GND pad - θJA = 43°C/W, requires PCB thermal pad for full 125°C junction rating |
Pinout & Package
The LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead, 3mm × 3mm plastic DFN package (DD) with exposed GND pad (Pin 9), requiring soldering to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity. Pin 1 is SW (switch node); Pin 2 is VIN; Pin 3 is ISET; Pin 4 is SS; Pin 5 is RUN; Pin 6 is VOUT/VFB; Pin 7 is HYST; Pins 8 and 9 are GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (Pin 1) | Switch node connection | Drain node of internal high-side and low-side MOSFETs - connects directly to inductor; requires low-inductance layout to minimize EMI |
| VIN (Pin 2) | Main input supply | Accepts 4.5V–45V; bypassed with ceramic capacitor to GND (Pin 8/9) - critical for stability and transient response |
| ISET (Pin 3) | Peak current programming | Sources 1µA; resistor to GND sets peak current from 50mA (shorted) to 225mA (open) - determines max output current and component sizing |
| SS (Pin 4) | Soft-start control | Sources 5µA; external capacitor sets ramp time - prevents input droop during startup; defaults to 0.75ms if floating |
| RUN (Pin 5) | Enable/disable control | 1.21V rising threshold (±110mV hysteresis); <0.7V forces shutdown (3µA IQ) - supports sequenced power-up and brownout recovery |
| VOUT/VFB (Pin 6) | Output feedback | Internally connected to 5V output in -5 version; monitors regulation error against 0.800V reference - no external divider needed |
| HYST (Pin 7) | Run hysteresis logic output | Open-drain output pulled low when RUN <1.2V - enables external hysteresis extension for VIN monitoring dividers |
| GND (Pins 8 & 9) | Power and signal ground | Pin 8 is standard GND; Pin 9 is exposed thermal pad - must be soldered to large PCB copper area for thermal performance and noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Burst Mode® operation | Maintains regulation at light loads while drawing only 12µA IQ - eliminates need for external enable sequencing in low-power IoT nodes |
| Integrated power switches | Complementary P-ch high-side + N-ch low-side MOSFETs eliminate external FETs and gate drivers - reduces BOM count and layout complexity |
| Programmable peak current limit | Adjustable 50mA–225mA via single resistor on ISET - allows optimization of inductor/capacitor size and ripple for specific load profiles |
| Precise RUN pin threshold | 1.21V enable with 110mV hysteresis - ensures clean, bounce-free startup and shutdown without external RC filtering |
| Internal soft-start + external SS pin | 0.75ms default ramp + user-adjustable via capacitor - prevents input supply sag and inrush current during cold start or hot-plug events |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage synchronous buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT8609SIS8E#TRPBF | 42V max input, 2A output, 2.5µA IQ, requires external compensation - higher current but larger solution size and greater design complexity | Targeted at higher-power industrial PLC I/O modules rather than sub-100mA sensor nodes | Select when >100mA output or tighter load transient response is required; not drop-in due to different pinout and compensation needs |
| TPS54240DGQR | 40V max input, 2.5A output, 147µA IQ, external MOSFETs - significantly higher quiescent current and external FET requirement | Suitable for cost-sensitive 12V automotive accessory supplies where efficiency at light load is secondary | Choose only if higher output current and lower BOM cost outweigh 12× higher no-load IQ and added layout effort |
Compared with LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF, LT8609S offers higher current capability but sacrifices ultra-low-IQ operation and simplicity, while TPS54240 provides higher power density at the expense of 12× higher standby consumption and external component overhead - making LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF optimal for space-constrained, battery-critical, or surge-prone 100mA applications.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF over temperature and line?
The LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF delivers a fixed 5V output with ±1.5% total tolerance across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and 4.5V–45V input voltage range. Measured data shows output remains within 4.94V (min) to 5.09V (max) under all specified conditions, directly traceable to its 0.800V ±1% internal feedback reference and precision bandgap design.
Does the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF require external compensation components?
No, the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF uses a proprietary hysteretic Burst Mode® control architecture that requires no external compensation components. Its stability is inherent to the comparator-based feedback loop and does not depend on output capacitor ESR or external RC networks - simplifying design and improving reliability across capacitor aging and temperature drift.
How does the ISET pin affect maximum output current in the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF?
The ISET pin on the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF programs the peak inductor current from 50mA (ISET shorted to GND) to 225mA (ISET open). Since maximum average output current equals half the peak current in this architecture, setting ISET adjusts usable output from 25mA to 112mA - directly influencing inductor sizing, efficiency at light loads, and ripple performance.
Can the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF survive automotive load dump events?
Yes, the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF includes internal overvoltage lockout with a 47V rising threshold and can safely withstand 60V transients on VIN without damage or latch-up. This meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a requirements for 12V automotive systems, eliminating need for external TVS diodes in many implementations.
What is the thermal performance difference between the DFN and MSOP packages for the LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF?
The LTC3631EDD-5#TRPBF in the 3mm × 3mm DFN (DD) package has θJA = 43°C/W, while the MS8E variant has θJA = 40°C/W. The DFN's exposed GND pad must be soldered to a minimum 100mm² PCB copper area to achieve rated thermal performance; insufficient pad area degrades θJA by up to 15°C/W, directly impacting maximum continuous output current at high ambient temperatures.
