Product details
Overview
LTM8033EV#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an ultralow-noise, EMC-compliant 36V input, 3A µModule® buck regulator in LGA package. It delivers regulated output from 0.8V to 24V, operates over 3.6V–36V input, supports 200kHz–2.4MHz switching via RT resistor, and meets EN55022 Class B radiated emissions without external filtering - ideal for automotive battery regulation and industrial distributed power.
For engineers reviewing the LTM8033EV#PBF datasheet, LTM8033EV#PBF pinout, LTM8033EV#PBF application, or LTM8033EV#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated EMI filter, programmable soft-start via RUN/SS, current-mode control architecture, PGOOD monitoring, and parallel operation capability via SHARE pin - all within a compact 11.25mm × 15mm × 4.32mm land grid array package.
Technical Context
The LTM8033EV#PBF implements a fixed-frequency current-mode PWM controller with integrated EMI filter, power switches, inductor, and support components. Its ADJ pin is regulated to 790mV (typ), enabling precise output voltage setting via a single external resistor (RADJ = 394.21/(VOUT – 0.79) kΩ).
It features Burst Mode® operation for light-load efficiency, thermal shutdown above 125°C, and synchronization capability via SYNC pin with <1µs edge rate requirement. The BIAS pin accepts 2.8V–25V to power internal circuitry - improving efficiency when tied to VOUT ≥2.8V - while VIN + BIAS must remain below 56V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.6V to 36V - supports wide-range industrial and automotive battery inputs including cold-crank and load-dump conditions. |
| Output Current | 3A continuous - sufficient for FPGA core rails, DSP supplies, and multi-rail embedded systems without derating at 25°C. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.8V to 24V - set by single RADJ resistor; enables direct generation of logic, analog, and interface supply voltages. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 2.4MHz - adjustable via RT-to-GND resistor; higher frequencies allow smaller external capacitors and faster transient response. |
| EMI Compliance | EN55022 Class B radiated emissions met standalone - eliminates need for external EMI filters in most board-level designs. |
| Package Dimensions | 11.25mm × 15mm × 4.32mm LGA - surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles; RoHS-compliant Au finish (e4 MSL3). |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 15.4°C/W - measured on 4-layer 6.35cm × 6.35cm PCB; enables 3A operation up to 85°C ambient with proper layout. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 76-lead overmolded Land Grid Array (LGA), 11.25mm × 15mm × 4.32mm, RoHS-compliant Au terminal finish (e4), MSL Level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT (Bank 1) | Power Output | Main regulated output node; connect bulk output capacitor and load between these pins and GND. |
| GND (A8, Bank 2) | Ground Reference | Local ground plane connection point; return path for feedback divider (RADJ) and EMI filter. |
| FIN (Bank 3) | Filtered Input Node | Post-EMI-filter input; connect recommended CFIN capacitor here to optimize conducted noise suppression. |
| VIN (Bank 4) | Main Input Supply | Primary power input for internal regulator and high-side switch; requires local low-ESR bypass capacitor. |
| SHARE (A6) | Current Share Control | Enables parallel operation of multiple LTM8033EV#PBF units for >3A output; tie together across devices. |
| ADJ (A7) | Feedback Reference | Regulated to 790mV (typ); sets output voltage via external RADJ resistor to ground. |
| RT (B6) | Frequency Programming | Connect resistor to GND to set switching frequency from 200kHz to 2.4MHz per Table 2. |
| SYNC (B8) | External Clock Input | Accepts external clock for synchronization; grounding enables Burst Mode® for light-load efficiency. |
| PGOOD (B7) | Power Good Indicator | Open-collector output active-high when ADJ reaches ≥90% of target; valid only when RUN/SS is high and VIN >3.6V. |
| AUX (G3) | Low-Current VOUT Tap | Internally connected to VOUT; placed adjacent to BIAS for routing convenience - not for load current. |
| BIAS (G4) | Bias Supply Input | Provides power to internal circuitry; connect to VOUT (if ≥2.8V) or external source; VIN + BIAS <56V. |
| RUN/SS (G8) | Enable & Soft-Start | Pull <0.2V to shut down (IIN <1µA); tie ≥2.5V for operation; also controls soft-start timing via external capacitor. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DC/DC µModule regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTM8033EY#PBF | BGA package (11.25mm × 15mm × 4.92mm), SAC305 RoHS finish, identical electrical specs. | Requires BGA assembly process; slightly taller but same footprint; preferred for automated high-volume SMT lines with BGA capability. | Select LTM8033EY#PBF if BGA reflow infrastructure is available and board stack height permits 4.92mm profile. |
| LTM8033IV#PBF | Same LGA package as LTM8033EV#PBF but rated for –40°C to 125°C junction temperature (vs. –40°C to 125°C for EV grade). | Guaranteed performance over full industrial temp range; suitable for extended-temperature deployments like outdoor base stations or engine compartments. | Choose LTM8033IV#PBF when full-specification validation across –40°C to 125°C is required - not just assured-by-design. |
Compared with LTM8033EY#PBF and LTM8033IV#PBF, the LTM8033EV#PBF offers the same core regulation performance in a RoHS-compliant LGA package with validated operation from –40°C to 125°C, making it optimal for cost-sensitive industrial designs where BGA handling is impractical and full temperature-grade certification is not mandated.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage sum between VIN and BIAS for the LTM8033EV#PBF?
The LTM8033EV#PBF specifies that the sum of VIN and BIAS voltages must not exceed 56V. This constraint protects internal bias circuitry and ensures safe operation of the integrated power stage. For example, if VIN is 36V, BIAS must be ≤20V; if BIAS is tied to VOUT = 12V, VIN may go up to 44V. Exceeding 56V risks permanent damage.
How does the LTM8033EV#PBF achieve EN55022 Class B compliance without external filters?
The LTM8033EV#PBF achieves EN55022 Class B radiated emissions compliance through an integrated passive EMI filter located between VIN and FIN pins. This filter, combined with optimized internal layout and shielding in the overmolded LGA package, suppresses high-frequency common-mode noise at the source. Conducted emissions still require external input filtering per application conditions.
Can the LTM8033EV#PBF operate with an output voltage lower than 0.8V?
No - the LTM8033EV#PBF is specified for output voltages from 0.8V to 24V. The ADJ pin is internally regulated to 790mV (typ), and the minimum valid RADJ value corresponds to 0.8V output using the formula RADJ = 394.21/(VOUT – 0.79). Attempting sub-0.8V operation violates the feedback range and results in loss of regulation.
What is the purpose of the FIN pin on the LTM8033EV#PBF, and how should it be used?
The FIN pin on the LTM8033EV#PBF is the filtered input node - the output of the internal EMI filter. It must be decoupled with the recommended CFIN capacitor (e.g., 10µF, 50V X7R) to ground. Leaving FIN unconnected degrades conducted noise performance; adding extra capacitance can further tailor filter response but requires validation against startup and transient behavior.
Does the LTM8033EV#PBF support synchronization to an external clock, and what are the timing requirements?
Yes - the LTM8033EV#PBF supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC pin. Valid clock edges must have rise/fall times faster than 1µs. The pin accepts logic-high ≥0.7V to disable Burst Mode®, or a clean square wave for synchronization. Floating SYNC is prohibited; grounding enables low-ripple Burst Mode® operation at light loads.
