Product details
Overview
LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF from Analog Devices is a high-integration power management IC for application processors, featuring four synchronous buck converters (2.5A, 2.5A, 1.5A, 1.5A), three 300mA LDOs (two adjustable), DDR termination support (±1.5A VTT + VTTR reference), I²C programmable sequencing, and automotive-grade operation up to 150°C junction temperature. It targets i.MX6, ARM Cortex, and OMAP-based portable systems requiring multi-rail precision power delivery.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF datasheet, LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF pinout, LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF application, or LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include DDR-compliant VTTR/VTT accuracy (±1% at 0.5×VDDQIN), I²C-configurable dynamic voltage scaling across all bucks, autonomous power-down control, ±1.5A VTT sink/source capability, and AEC-Q100 qualification for infotainment and ADAS subsystems.
Technical Context
The LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF integrates two 2.5A and two 1.5A synchronous step-down regulators with selectable 1.125MHz/2.25MHz switching frequency, enabling optimized efficiency vs. size trade-offs. Each buck uses internal PMOS/NMOS switches with verified on-resistance (120mΩ/70mΩ for 2.5A rails; 160mΩ/80mΩ for 1.5A rails) and supports soft-start via feedback pin ramping (0.8V/ms).
It implements a dedicated DDR power architecture: Buck 1 delivers ±1.5A VTT with VTTR buffered to 0.5×VDDQIN (±1% tolerance), while LDO2–LDO4 provide low-noise analog supplies (1.8V fixed, two adjustable via 725mV reference). System control includes pushbutton ON/OFF, WAKE/IRQ status signaling, and I²C register access for real-time voltage monitoring and sequencing configuration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion or USB-powered systems without external pre-regulation. |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Main input supply rail | Primary 2.7–5.5V input powering all PVIN pins and internal circuitry; requires ≥1µF ceramic bypass. |
| PVIN1–PVIN4 | Per-buck power inputs | Independent high-current inputs for each buck stage; each requires ≥10µF ceramic bulk capacitance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-rail power management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS659122ZQV | 6-buck + 8-LDO PMIC; no integrated VTT/VTTR; I²C address 0x58; max junction temp 105°C. | Requires external DDR termination IC; suited for non-automotive consumer tablets with lower thermal demands. | Select when needing more LDOs but no DDR-specific rails; verify external VTT solution adds board area and BOM cost. |
| MAX20029ATI+T | 4-buck + 3-LDO; AEC-Q100 Grade 0 (–40°C to +125°C); no VTTR; I²C address 0x60; VTT ±1.2A only. | Lacks VTTR buffer; VTT current limited to ±1.2A - insufficient for DDR4 high-speed interfaces. | Choose for cost-sensitive automotive clusters where DDR3 (not DDR4) is used and VTTR is generated externally. |
Compared with TPS659122ZQV and MAX20029ATI+T, the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF uniquely integrates automotive-grade DDR3/DDR4-compliant VTTR and ±1.5A VTT in a single package, eliminating external components while maintaining 150°C operation - critical for compact, thermally constrained infotainment modules.

FAQ
What is the function of the VTTR pin on the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF?
The VTTR pin on the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF provides a buffered, high-accuracy reference voltage equal to exactly one-half of the VDDQIN voltage (0.5×VDDQIN), with ±1% tolerance across temperature and load. This output directly supports JEDEC-compliant DDR3/DDR4 termination schemes and eliminates the need for an external resistor divider or op-amp buffer. The LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF uses this pin exclusively in its -1 variant to ensure precise DDR VREF generation.
Does the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF support dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) for all four buck regulators?
Yes, the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF supports full I²C-controlled dynamic voltage scaling for all four buck regulators via dedicated DVBxA/DVBxB registers. Each buck's output voltage can be adjusted in 12.5mV steps across its full range (e.g., 0.4V to 3.6V), enabling real-time optimization of SoC core, memory, and I/O rail voltages during different operational states. This capability is implemented in the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF firmware and confirmed in the device's control register map.
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF, and how is it validated?
The LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF is rated for a maximum junction temperature of +150°C and is fully guaranteed over the –40°C to +150°C operating junction temperature range per Analog Devices' H-grade qualification. This rating is validated through design correlation, statistical process controls, and extended environmental stress testing - including high-temperature operating life (HTOL) and temperature cycling - meeting AEC-Q100 Rev H requirements. The LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF datasheet specifies θJA = 19°C/W for the 48-lead eLQFP package.
How does the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF handle power sequencing without I²C communication?
The LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF supports pin-strapped power sequencing by connecting the enable outputs (EN_B1–EN_B4, EN_L2–EN_L4) to downstream regulator inputs or other EN pins in the desired startup order. Each enable pin has a weak internal pull-down, allowing simple resistor-based delay networks or RC timing circuits to enforce staggered turn-on. This method operates independently of I²C and is fully functional in the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF, as documented in the "Independent Enable Pin-Strap or I²C Sequencing" feature list.
Is the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF pin-compatible with the standard LTC3676HLXE#PBF?
No, the LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF is not pin-compatible with the LTC3676HLXE#PBF. The -1 variant replaces LDO4 with VTTR/VDDQIN functionality: Pin 9 is VTTR (not FB_L4), Pin 10 is VDDQIN (not EN_L4), and Pin 7 remains VIN_L4 but is unused in -1 mode. These pin function changes require PCB layout revision. The LTC3676HLXE-1#PBF datasheet explicitly defines this alternate pin mapping for DDR-optimized applications.
