Product details
Overview
LTC7103IUHE#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 at adjustable 1V–VIN output. 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 and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF pinout, LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF application, or LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include ultralow EMI (CISPR25-compliant), programmable 200kHz–2MHz switching frequency, fast average current loop response, EXTVCC LDO support for efficiency optimization, and thermal robustness in automotive and avionics systems.
Technical Context
The LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF implements constant-frequency average current mode control using internal reconstruction of inductor current via top/bottom switch sensing and RIND-based ramp generation - eliminating need for external current sense components. Its dual LDO architecture (VIN- and EXTVCC-powered INTVCC) enables efficient operation across wide input ranges while supporting 100% duty cycle via charge-pump-assisted BOOST supply.
Control logic integrates PLL synchronization (via PLLIN/MODE), selectable light-load modes (Burst Mode® or pulse-skipping), and comprehensive protection including input/output overvoltage, reverse-current limiting, and thermal shutdown. The ICTRL/IMON interface provides direct analog programming and monitoring of average output current with ±5% accuracy over temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.4V to 105V - supports direct connection to 48V, 72V, and 96V industrial/automotive bus rails without pre-regulation. |
| Max Output Current | 2.3A continuous - sustained at full load with thermal derating per 5mm × 6mm QFN package θJA = 38°C/W. |
| Min On-Time | 40ns - enables stable 3.3V/5V output from 72V+ inputs at 300kHz+ switching frequencies. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 2MHz (programmable) - allows optimization of size (higher fSW → smaller inductor) vs. efficiency (lower fSW → lower switching loss). |
| IQ in Regulation | 2µA @ 48VIN/3.3VOUT - enables always-on subsystems in battery-backed equipment with multi-year standby life. |
| Current Sense Accuracy | ±5% average current limit error - ensures precise CC/CV battery charging and LED driver compliance without calibration. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 36-lead (5mm × 6mm) plastic QFN with exposed PGND pad (Pin 37), rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature. Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (3) | Enable/Shutdown Control | Holding <1.1V disables regulator; <0.7V reduces IQ to 0.7µA - used for VIN undervoltage lockout or system-level power sequencing. |
| VIN (30,31,32) | Main Power Input | High-side MOSFET drain and VIN-LDO input - accepts up to 105V; multiple pins reduce IR drop and improve thermal spreading. |
| SW (24,25,26) | Power Switch Node | Connection point for external inductor - low-inductance parallel routing minimizes switching node ringing and EMI. |
| EXTVCC (20) | External Bias Input | Enables INTVCC generation from VOUT (3.3V–40V), bypassing VIN-LDO to cut quiescent power dissipation in high-VIN applications. |
| ICTRL (16) | Average Current Setpoint | Analog voltage input (0.4V–1.3V) programs 0–2.5A average output current - enables programmable CC mode for battery charging. |
| IMON (17) | Current Monitor Output | Analog voltage output (0.4V–1.3V) proportional to average output current - provides real-time feedback for system telemetry or safety monitoring. |
| FREQ (11) | Frequency Programming | Resistor-to-SGND sets 200kHz–2MHz fSW; tie to SGND for 300kHz or INTVCC for 1MHz - no external clock required for basic operation. |
| PLLIN/MODE (12) | Synchronization & Light-Load Mode | Accepts external clock for phase alignment; also selects Burst Mode® (float/SGND) or pulse-skipping (100kΩ to INTVCC) at light loads. |
| PGOOD (14) | Power-Good Indicator | Open-drain output asserts low if VFB deviates >10% from regulation - used for downstream power sequencing or fault reporting. |
| SS (15) | Soft-Start & Timeout | Capacitor-to-ground sets output ramp time; internal 11µA current source enables 1.2ms default soft-start - prevents inrush current damage. |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF?
The LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 110V, with guaranteed operation from 4.4V to 105V. This allows direct connection to 48V, 72V, and 96V industrial and automotive battery systems without pre-regulation stages. The device includes internal input overvoltage protection triggered at 1.21V on the OVLO pin, which corresponds to ~105V at VIN when configured with standard resistor dividers.
Does the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF require an external current sense resistor?
No, the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF does not require an external current sense resistor. It uses internal lossless sensing of top and bottom MOSFET currents combined with RIND-based ramp reconstruction to provide accurate average output current programming (via ICTRL pin) and monitoring (via IMON pin). This eliminates shunt resistor losses, board space, and thermal drift - a key differentiator versus conventional current-mode buck controllers.
Can the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF operate with 100% duty cycle?
Yes, the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF supports true 100% duty cycle operation via an internal charge pump that maintains BOOST-to-SW voltage even when the high-side MOSFET remains continuously on. This enables dropout-free regulation down to VOUT ≈ VIN − 0.5V, critical for hold-up during input brownouts in automotive and industrial systems where uninterrupted power is essential.
What is the purpose of the EXTVCC pin on the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF?
The EXTVCC pin on the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF powers an internal LDO that generates INTVCC, bypassing the higher-loss VIN-powered LDO when EXTVCC is between 3.1V and 40V. In typical applications, EXTVCC is tied to VOUT, reducing quiescent power dissipation and improving efficiency - especially beneficial in high-VIN, low-IOUT scenarios like always-on automotive modules where IQ drops to 2µA.
How is EMI performance validated for the LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF?
The LTC7103IUHE#TRPBF is validated to meet CISPR25 Class 5 radiated emission limits using standardized automotive test setups (horizontal/vertical polarization, 1m distance). Data sheets include measured plots (Figures G30/G31) showing compliance up to 1GHz without external EMI filters. This is achieved through controlled slew rates, optimized internal gate drivers, symmetrical SW node layout, and integrated bootstrap capacitor - all designed into the silicon and package.
