Product details
Overview
LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-efficiency, wide-input 76V step-down DC/DC regulator with integrated 350mΩ P-channel MOSFET, programmable 0.1–1A output current, 12µA no-load quiescent current, and 0.8V ±1% feedback reference-designed for industrial control supplies and battery-operated systems requiring robust input voltage handling and low standby power.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF pinout, LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF application, or LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed package mapping to MSE16, real-world efficiency vs. load data, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts for fixed-output and adjustable configurations.
Technical Context
The LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF implements Burst Mode® operation with hysteretic peak-current control, enabling ultra-low 12µA sleep-mode supply current while maintaining regulation across 4V–76V input. Its internal P-channel high-side switch supports 100% duty cycle dropout operation and eliminates external compensation components.
Output voltage is selectable via VPRG1/VPRG2 pins for 1.8V/3.3V/5V fixed outputs or fully adjustable (0.8V–VIN) using an external resistor divider. Peak inductor current is precisely programmed via ISET pin (0.1A–1A typical average output), directly influencing ripple, component size, and light-load efficiency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4V to 76V - supports direct regulation from 24V/48V industrial rails, automotive batteries, and PoE+ injectors without pre-regulation. |
| Max Output Current | 1A average - derived from 2.4A typical peak current limit; enables compact 12V@1A or 5V@1A designs with minimal thermal derating in MSE16 package. |
| Quiescent Current | 12µA in Burst Mode - sustains regulation at microamp-level loads (e.g., RTC backup, sensor sleep states) without battery drain. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.8V ±1% - enables precise output setting down to 0.8V; tolerance directly impacts output accuracy in adjustable configurations. |
| Switch RDS(on) | 350mΩ - limits conduction loss at 1A; combined with P-channel architecture, enables 100% duty cycle for low-VIN dropout. |
| Soft-Start Time | 0.8ms internal or user-programmable - prevents inrush current on power-up; capacitor on SS pin scales ramp time linearly (1ms per 16.5nF). |
| Overvoltage Lockout | Programmable via OVLO pin - disables switching when input exceeds set threshold (e.g., 60V), protecting downstream circuitry during transients. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead plastic MSOP (MSE16), 3mm × 4.9mm × 1.0mm profile, exposed pad (Pin 17) tied to GND for thermal performance (θJA = 45°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (1) | Switch node | Connects to inductor and catch diode; carries pulsed high-side switch current; requires low-inductance layout. |
| VIN (3) | Main input supply | Accepts 4V–76V; bypassed with ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and EMI suppression. |
| FBO (5) | Feedback comparator output | Open-drain flag indicating regulation status; 20µA pull-up, 70Ω pull-down for fault signaling. |
| VPRG1/VPRG2 (6,7) | Output voltage selection | Configure fixed 1.8V/3.3V/5V or adjustable mode by grounding or tying to SS pin. |
| GND (8,16,17) | Ground reference & thermal path | Multiple GND pins + exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal integrity. |
| VFB (9) | Feedback input | Compares divided output to 0.8V reference; connects to resistor divider (adjustable) or directly to VOUT (fixed). |
| SS (10) | Soft-start control | Capacitor-to-GND sets output ramp time; internal 0.8ms default; 5µA charging current enables precise timing. |
| ISET (11) | Peak current programming | Resistor-to-GND sets peak current (0.1A–1A avg); floating = 2.4A peak; shorted = 0.24A peak. |
| OVLO (12) | Input overvoltage lockout | Resistive divider sets shutdown threshold >1.21V; ensures safe operation during input surges. |
| RUN (14) | Enable/disable control | 1.21V threshold enables operation; <0.7V forces 3µA shutdown; supports undervoltage lockout via divider. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Burst Mode® operation | Delivers 12µA no-load IQ while sustaining regulation-critical for battery longevity in portable instruments and remote sensors. |
| Programmable peak current limit | Adjusts max output from 0.1A to 1A via single resistor on ISET pin-optimizes inductor/capacitor sizing and reduces BOM cost. |
| Integrated P-channel MOSFET | 350mΩ RDS(on) enables 100% duty cycle dropout and eliminates external high-side switch, simplifying layout and reducing footprint. |
| No external compensation required | Stable with standard ceramic output capacitors-removes loop compensation design effort and avoids phase-margin tuning errors. |
| Precise RUN and OVLO thresholds | 1.21V rising threshold with 110mV hysteresis enables accurate input voltage windowing for automotive and avionics applications. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF?
The LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 80V, with guaranteed operation across 4V to 76V. This allows direct connection to 48V industrial buses, 60V PoE++ sources, and automotive systems experiencing load dump transients up to 65V-provided OVLO is configured to disable switching above safe thresholds. The LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF integrates protection circuitry that sustains 80V indefinitely in shutdown mode.
How does the ISET pin program output current in the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF?
The ISET pin on the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF sources a 5µA (active) or 1µA (sleep) current; connecting a resistor from ISET to GND sets the peak inductor current threshold. Using RISET = 140k·IPEAK – 24k (for 0.2A ≤ IPEAK ≤ 2A), a 100kΩ resistor yields ~1A peak current → 0.5A average output. The LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF's architecture limits average output to half the peak current, so 2.4A peak (floating ISET) delivers 1A max average load.
Can the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF operate in 100% duty cycle dropout mode?
Yes-the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF uses an internal P-channel MOSFET high-side switch, enabling true 100% duty cycle operation when VIN approaches VOUT. This allows regulation down to VIN – VDS(on)·ILOAD, supporting applications like 5V output from a discharging 6V LiFePO4 battery. However, power dissipation rises significantly below 10V input due to increased RDS(on) and higher output current, requiring thermal derating per the MSE16 θJA = 45°C/W spec. The LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF includes thermal shutdown at ~180°C to prevent damage.
What are the fixed output voltage options supported by the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF?
The LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF supports three factory-configurable fixed outputs via VPRG1 and VPRG2 pin strapping: 1.8V (both pins tied to SS), 3.3V (VPRG1 grounded, VPRG2 to SS), and 5V (VPRG1 to SS, VPRG2 grounded). Each uses internal precision resistors matched to the 0.8V reference, achieving ±1% accuracy over temperature and line. For other voltages, the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF operates in adjustable mode with VPRG1/VPRG2 both grounded and an external resistor divider on VFB.
Does the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF require external compensation components?
No-the LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF uses a proprietary hysteretic peak-current control architecture that is inherently stable and requires no external compensation network. It operates reliably with standard ceramic output capacitors (e.g., 47µF X5R) and does not need type-2 or type-3 compensation networks, error amplifiers, or phase-margin analysis. This simplifies design, reduces BOM count, and eliminates loop-stability risks common in voltage-mode or current-mode controllers. The LTC3637EMSE#TRPBF achieves this while maintaining tight load/line regulation and fast transient response.
