Overview
LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with average current mode control, operating from 4.4V to 105V input and delivering up to 2.3A output current at adjustable 1V–VIN output voltage. It features 40ns minimum on-time, 100% duty cycle capability, and integrated current programming/monitoring without external sense resistor - enabling high-ratio conversion in battery chargers, industrial power supplies, and avionics systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF pinout, LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF application, or LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include ultralow EMI (CISPR25-compliant), programmable 200kHz–2MHz switching frequency, EXTVCC LDO support for 3.3V–40V auxiliary supply, and precise average current limit setting via ICTRL pin with ±5% accuracy over temperature.
Technical Context
The LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF implements constant-frequency average current mode control using internal reconstruction of inductor current via top/bottom switch sensing and RIND-based ramp synthesis - eliminating need for external current sense components while maintaining stability at ultra-low duty cycles. Its dual LDO architecture (VIN- and EXTVCC-powered INTVCC) enables efficient operation across wide input ranges and supports bootstrapped configurations.
It integrates fast-responding average current loop with OPTI-LOOP® compensation at ITH, selectable pulse-skipping or Burst Mode® for light-load efficiency optimization, and robust protection including input/output overvoltage, thermal shutdown, and brick-wall current limiting. PLL synchronization via PLLIN/MODE allows deterministic timing alignment with system clocks.

Package: 36-lead (5mm × 6mm) plastic QFN with exposed PGND pad (Pin 37), rated for –40°C to 125°C junction temperature. Thermal performance requires soldering exposed pad to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (3) | Enable control input | Holding <1.1V disables regulator; <0.7V reduces IQ to 0.7µA - enables VIN undervoltage lockout via resistor divider. |
| VIN (30,31,32) | Main power input | Supplies high-side MOSFET drain and powers internal VIN LDO generating 3.5V INTVCC - decoupling required to PGND. |
| SW (24,25,26) | Power switch node | Connects internal top/bottom N-MOSFETs to external inductor - requires low-inductance layout and BOOST capacitor tie. |
| EXTVCC (20) | Auxiliary LDO input | Accepts 3.3V–40V supply to power INTVCC, bypassing VIN LDO - improves efficiency and reduces thermal stress at high VIN. |
| ICTRL (16) | Average current setpoint | 0.4V–1.3V input programs 0A–2.5A average output current - internal 20µA pull-up enables single-resistor programming. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF?
The LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 110V, with guaranteed operation from 4.4V to 105V. This enables direct interface with 48V, 72V, and 100V industrial and transportation power buses without external pre-regulation stages. Operation above 105V is not specified and may compromise reliability or safety margins.
Does the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF require an external current sense resistor?
No, the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF does not require an external current sense resistor. It implements lossless average current sensing using internal top and bottom MOSFET conduction monitoring combined with RIND-based ramp synthesis. Current programming is set via the ICTRL pin voltage (0.4V–1.3V), and current monitoring is provided on the IMON pin (0.4V–1.3V), both with ±5% accuracy over temperature.
How is EMI performance achieved in the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF without external filters?
The LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF achieves CISPR25 Class 5 radiated emission compliance through integrated layout techniques: symmetrical SW node routing, integrated bootstrap capacitor path, controlled switching edge rates, and optimized internal gate drive. These features reduce high-frequency common-mode noise at the source, minimizing need for ferrite beads or Y-capacitors in typical 2-layer PCB implementations.
Can the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF operate with 100% duty cycle?
Yes, the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF supports true 100% duty cycle operation via an internal charge pump that maintains BOOST-to-SW voltage even when the top MOSFET is continuously on. This enables dropout-free regulation down to VOUT ≈ VIN − 0.5V, critical for applications like cold-cranking in automotive systems or brownout recovery in industrial equipment.
What is the purpose of the EXTVCC pin on the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF?
The EXTVCC pin on the LTC7103EUHE#TRPBF accepts an external 3.3V–40V supply to power the INTVCC rail, bypassing the internal VIN LDO. This reduces power dissipation and improves efficiency - especially at high VIN - by avoiding linear regulation losses. When used, EXTVCC must be tied to the regulated output (e.g., 5V or 12V) and the SS timeout feature must be disabled via 75kΩ resistor to INTVCC.
