Product details
Overview
LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a 105V, 2.3A monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with average current mode control. It operates from 4.4V to 105V input, delivers 1V to VIN adjustable output, achieves 40ns minimum on-time and 100% duty cycle, and targets high-reliability automotive, industrial, and avionics power supplies requiring ultralow EMI and wide-input operation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF pinout, LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF application, or LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150°C junction-rated QFN package, programmable 200kHz–2MHz switching frequency, no external sense resistor for current monitoring, CISPR25-compliant radiated emissions, and EXTVCC LDO support for high-efficiency bootstrapped operation.
Technical Context
The LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF implements constant-frequency average current mode control using internal top/bottom MOSFET current sensing and lossless inductor current reconstruction-enabling precise, resistorless current programming and fast transient response without external RSENSE. Its architecture supports ultralow duty-cycle operation via a dedicated RIND-based ramp generator and maintains regulation down to 1V output across the full 4.4V–105V input range.
It integrates dual LDOs (VIN- and EXTVCC-powered INTVCC), PLL synchronization (200kHz–2MHz), OPTI-LOOP® or fixed internal compensation, and comprehensive protection including input/output overvoltage, thermal shutdown, and brick-wall current limiting. The H-grade variant guarantees operation from –40°C to 150°C junction temperature with 38°C/W θJA.

Pinout & Package
Package: 36-lead (5mm × 6mm) plastic QFN with exposed PGND pad (Pin 37), thermally enhanced for 150°C operation (θJA = 38°C/W). Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for rated electrical and thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (3) | Enable/Shutdown Control | Holding <1.1V disables regulator; <0.7V reduces IQ to 0.7µA - enables precise undervoltage lockout via resistor divider from VIN. |
| VIN (30,31,32) | Main Power Input | Connects to 4.4V–105V source; powers high-side MOSFET and internal VIN LDO generating INTVCC. |
| SW (24,25,26) | Power Switch Node | Drives external inductor; connects internally to top/bottom N-MOSFETs - requires low-inductance layout and 0.1µF BOOST capacitor. |
| EXTVCC (20) | External Bias Input | Accepts 3.1V–40V supply (e.g., VOUT) to power INTVCC via dedicated LDO - improves efficiency and reduces VIN LDO dissipation. |
| ICTRL (16) | Average Current Setpoint | 0.4V–1.3V input programs 0A–2.5A average output current - eliminates need for external current-sense resistor and amplifier. |
| IMON (17) | Current Monitor Output | 0.4V–1.3V analog voltage proportional to average output current (0A–2.5A) - enables real-time load monitoring and fault logging. |
| FREQ (11) | Frequency Programming | Sources 40µA; resistor to SGND sets fSW from 200kHz to 2MHz - supports EMI spread-spectrum tuning and multi-phase synchronization. |
| PLLIN/MODE (12) | Sync Clock Input / Light-Load Mode Select | Accepts external clock (200kHz–2MHz) for phase alignment; also selects Burst Mode (float/SGND) or pulse-skipping (INTVCC via 100kΩ). |
| PGOOD (14) | Open-Drain Status Flag | Pulled low when VFB deviates >10% from target - provides system-level power-good signaling for sequenced startup or fault isolation. |
| PGND/Exposed Pad (35,36,37) | Power Ground Return | Primary return path for high-current switch node and internal LDOs - must be solidly connected to PCB ground plane for thermal and EMI integrity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF?
The LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 110V and a specified operating input voltage range of 4.4V to 105V. This allows direct connection to 48V, 72V, and 96V battery systems while surviving automotive load-dump transients up to 110V. Operation beyond 105V is not guaranteed and may trigger internal protection circuits.
Does the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF require an external current-sense resistor?
No, the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF does not require an external current-sense resistor. It uses internal lossless sensing of the top and bottom MOSFET currents combined with inductor current reconstruction to enable accurate average current programming (via ICTRL pin) and monitoring (via IMON pin) - eliminating RSENSE placement, power loss, and temperature drift.
How does the EXTVCC pin improve efficiency in the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF?
The EXTVCC pin on the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF accepts 3.1V–40V input (e.g., VOUT) to power the INTVCC rail via a dedicated LDO, bypassing the higher-loss VIN LDO. This reduces power dissipation in the IC, especially at high input voltages like 48V or 72V, and improves full-load efficiency by up to 2–3% compared to VIN-only biasing.
What is the purpose of the RIND pin on the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF?
The RIND pin on the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF sets the internal ramp current used to replicate the inductor's up-slope during low-duty-cycle operation. A resistor from RIND to SGND equal to 1/(7.5·L) calibrates this ramp, ensuring stable average current mode control at very high step-down ratios (e.g., 100V→3.3V). It is required when VPRG1/VPRG2 are floating (adjustable mode).
Can the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF synchronize to an external clock?
Yes, the LTC7103HUHE#TRPBF supports external clock synchronization via the PLLIN/MODE pin. When an external clock (200kHz–2MHz) is applied, its phase-locked loop aligns the rising edge of the SW signal to the external clock edge. This enables deterministic EMI reduction and coordinated switching in multi-regulator systems - a feature confirmed in the device's functional diagram and electrical characteristics table.
