Product details
Overview
LTC3632IDD#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 20mA output current from a 4.5V–50V input. It features 12µA no-load quiescent current, 0.8V ±1% feedback reference, and programmable peak current limit (10–50mA) - enabling high efficiency in battery-powered industrial sensors and 4–20mA loop supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3632IDD#TRPBF pinout, LTC3632IDD#TRPBF application, or LTC3632IDD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its wide VIN range (4.5V–50V), internal overvoltage lockout (up to 60V surge), Burst Mode® operation for ultra-low IQ, and DFN-8 (3mm × 3mm) thermal performance - critical for space-constrained, high-reliability power rails.
Technical Context
The LTC3632IDD#TRPBF uses a hysteretic Burst Mode® control architecture with an internal 0.8V reference and 5mV feedback hysteresis, enabling automatic transition between active burst cycles and ultra-low-power sleep mode (12µA). Its peak current comparator is offset-programmable via ISET pin (1µA source), allowing precise tuning of inductor current limits from 10mA to 50mA.
Startup is managed by a precise RUN pin comparator (1.21V rising threshold, 110mV hysteresis) and dual soft-start: internal 0.75ms ramp plus external capacitor-based control on SS pin (5.5µA sourced). The device integrates shoot-through prevention, reverse-current detection, and 100ns minimum high-side on-time - ensuring robust operation across input transients and load steps.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 50V - supports direct regulation from 12V/24V/48V industrial buses and automotive batteries with transient tolerance. |
| Output Current | Up to 20mA - sufficient for powering precision analog front-ends, isolated gate drivers, or 4–20mA transmitter circuitry. |
| No-Load Quiescent Current | 12µA typical - enables multi-year battery life in remote sensor nodes operating at microamp loads. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.8V ±1% - enables accurate output voltage setting from 0.8V to VIN using two external resistors. |
| Overvoltage Lockout | 54V rising / 52V falling - protects against 60V surges without external clamping components. |
| Peak Current Limit | Programmable 10–50mA via ISET resistor - allows optimization of inductor size, ripple, and efficiency for specific load profiles. |
| Package | 8-lead 3mm × 3mm DFN with exposed GND pad - provides low θJA = 43°C/W for passive thermal management in compact layouts. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic DFN with exposed GND 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 to inductor and drains of internal P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side MOSFETs; carries high di/dt switching current. |
| VIN (Pin 2) | Main input supply | Accepts 4.5V–50V input; requires local 1µF ceramic bypass to GND for EMI suppression and stability. |
| ISET (Pin 3) | Peak current programming | 1µA current source sets peak inductor current (10–50mA) via resistor to GND; floating = 50mA, shorted = 10mA. |
| SS (Pin 4) | Soft-start control | 5.5µA current source charges external capacitor to control output voltage ramp rate; floating defaults to 0.75ms internal ramp. |
| RUN (Pin 5) | Enable/disable control | 1.21V rising threshold enables operation; <0.7V forces shutdown (3µA IQ); hysteresis adjustable via HYST pin. |
| VFB (Pin 6) | Feedback input | Compares divided output voltage to 0.8V reference; ±1% accuracy ensures tight output regulation across line/load/temp. |
| HYST (Pin 7) | Run hysteresis open-drain output | Pulled low when RUN < 1.2V; used with external resistor divider to increase effective UVLO hysteresis on VIN. |
| GND (Pins 8 & 9) | Power and signal ground | Pins 8 (bond pad) and 9 (exposed thermal pad) are internally connected; pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF can safely withstand?
The LTC3632IDD#TRPBF has an absolute maximum VIN rating of 60V and includes internal overvoltage lockout that disables switching above 54V (rising) to protect the device. It is rated for continuous operation from 4.5V to 50V, making it suitable for 48V industrial buses and automotive load-dump scenarios. The 60V surge tolerance eliminates need for external TVS diodes in many applications.
How does the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF achieve 12µA quiescent current?
The LTC3632IDD#TRPBF achieves 12µA typical no-load supply current through Burst Mode® operation: it enters a deep sleep state where internal power switches, comparators, and bias circuits are disabled, drawing minimal current from VIN while maintaining output regulation via the output capacitor. This mode activates automatically when load current drops below ~100µA.
Can the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF be used to generate a 3.3V output?
Yes, the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF can generate a stable 3.3V output by configuring the external feedback divider per VOUT = 0.8V × (1 + R1/R2). At 3.3V, typical efficiency exceeds 85% across 1–20mA loads with 12V or 24V input, as confirmed in Figure 2 of the datasheet. The 0.8V ±1% reference ensures tight output accuracy.
What is the purpose of the HYST pin on the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF?
The HYST pin on the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF is an open-drain logic output pulled low when the RUN pin voltage falls below 1.2V. It enables external adjustment of RUN pin hysteresis - for example, by connecting a resistor from HYST to VIN - to implement precise, user-defined undervoltage lockout thresholds on the input supply without additional ICs.
Is the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF pin-compatible with other packages in the LTC3632 family?
No, the LTC3632IDD#TRPBF (DFN-8) is not pin-compatible with the MS8E-package variants (e.g., LTC3632EMS8E#TRPBF), despite identical functionality and pin numbering. The DFN and MSOP packages have different land patterns, thermal pad configurations, and mechanical outlines - requiring separate PCB layouts. Always verify footprint against the specific package drawing.
