Product details
Overview
LTM8065EY#PBF from Analog Devices is a 40V input, 2.5A continuous-output Silent Switcher® µModule® step-down regulator integrating controller, MOSFETs, inductor, and support components in a compact BGA package. It delivers regulated output from 0.97V to 18V (or –3.3V to –18V) with programmable 200kHz–3MHz switching frequency and supports automotive battery regulation, industrial point-of-load, and portable power applications.
For engineers reviewing the LTM8065EY#PBF datasheet, LTM8065EY#PBF pinout, LTM8065EY#PBF application, or LTM8065EY#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated inductor, low-noise Silent Switcher architecture, thermal performance in 6.25mm × 6.25mm × 2.32mm BGA, programmable soft-start via TR/SS, and external synchronization capability for EMI-sensitive designs.
Technical Context
The LTM8065EY#PBF employs current-mode PWM control with internal compensation, enabling stable regulation across wide input (3.4V–40V) and output (0.97V–18V) ranges. Its fixed-frequency architecture supports resistor-programmed switching (200kHz–3MHz) and four SYNC modes: Burst Mode®, pulse-skipping, spread-spectrum, and external clock synchronization.
Thermal management relies on bottom-thermal-pad GND banks (A1/A4/A6) and a θJCbottom of 5.9°C/W. The device uses an internal 0.97V reference at FB, with PG monitoring FB voltage within ±10% for power-good signaling, and includes overtemperature shutdown above 125°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.4V to 40V - supports 12V/24V/36V industrial and automotive batteries without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 2.5A continuous, 3.5A peak - sustained delivery under thermal limits; derates with ambient temperature and VIN–VOUT differential. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.97V to 18V (positive), or –3.3V to –18V (negative) - set by single RFB resistor; enables precise core voltage or bias rail generation. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz to 3MHz - selected via RT-to-GND resistor; higher frequencies reduce inductor size but increase switching loss. |
| Quiescent Current | 3µA (VIN), 1µA (BIAS) - ultra-low standby draw in Burst Mode® for battery-powered systems. |
| Output Ripple | 10mV peak-to-peak - achieved with recommended ceramic output capacitors; meets noise-sensitive analog/RF supply requirements. |
| Package Dimensions | 6.25mm × 6.25mm × 2.32mm BGA - low-profile footprint fits underside of PCBs for high-density layouts. |
Pinout & Package
The LTM8065EY#PBF is housed in a 36-lead RoHS-compliant over-molded BGA package (6.25mm × 6.25mm × 2.32mm) with thermal enhancement via bottom GND pads. Pin assignment follows JEDEC-standard BGA layout with three functional banks.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (A1, A4, A6) | Ground Reference & Thermal Path | Primary heat dissipation path; must connect to large local ground plane for thermal integrity and noise control. |
| VIN (B2, C1, C2, D1, D2) | Main Input Power Supply | Supplies internal regulator and power switches; requires local 2.2µF low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitor. |
| VOUT (C3, C4, D3, D4, E3, E4) | Regulated Output Power | Delivers up to 2.5A; connects to output filter capacitor and load; multiple pins reduce IR drop and improve current sharing. |
| FB (B1) | Feedback Input | Regulated to 0.97V; sets output voltage via RFB resistor; accuracy directly determines VOUT tolerance. |
| RT (A5) | Frequency Programming | Resistor-to-GND sets switching frequency; values from 10.7kΩ (3MHz) to 232kΩ (200kHz); sensitive to stray capacitance. |
| RUN (B6) | Enable/Shutdown Control | Logic-level input: <0.9V disables regulator (μA quiescent), ≥1.06V enables; tied to VIN if always-on operation required. |
| SYNC (B4) | Mode Selection & Clock Sync | Four-state interface: GND = Burst Mode®, float = pulse-skip, 2.9–4.2V = spread spectrum, driven clock = sync mode. |
| TR/SS (B5) | Soft-Start / Tracking Input | Internal 2µA current source charges external capacitor for controlled startup; also accepts tracking voltage for sequencing. |
| PG (A3) | Power-Good Open-Drain Output | Active-low signal valid when VIN >3.4V and FB within ±10%; requires external pull-up for system monitoring or sequencing. |
| BIAS (A2) | Bias Supply Input | Must be ≥3.2V; powers internal circuitry; tie to VOUT if VOUT ≥3.2V to improve efficiency; else use external source or GND. |
| AUX (B2) | Low-Current VOUT Tap | Internally connected to VOUT; used for feedforward capacitor (AUX→FB); not for load current-max 1mA sourcing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Silent Switcher® Architecture | Reduces EMI emissions by >20dB vs conventional switchers; enables CISPR22 Class B compliance without external filters. |
| Integrated Inductor & Full Power Stage | Eliminates external inductor selection, layout sensitivity, and magnetic coupling issues-reduces design cycle time by ~3 weeks. |
| Programmable Soft-Start & Tracking | TR/SS pin enables controlled ramp-up or voltage sequencing with external RC; prevents inrush current and ensures safe power-up order. |
| Wide Input/Output Flexibility | Supports both positive and negative outputs (–3.3V to –18V) using same part; simplifies BOM for dual-rail systems. |
| Thermally Optimized BGA Package | θJCbottom = 5.9°C/W enables 2.5A continuous operation at 75°C ambient on 2-layer board with 2oz copper and thermal vias. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down µModule regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTM8064EY#PBF | Lower 20V max input, 1.5A output; identical 6.25mm BGA footprint and pinout. | Not suitable for 24V/36V industrial or automotive inputs; limited to USB PD, low-voltage IoT. | Select only if input ≤20V and output current ≤1.5A; offers cost advantage where full LTM8065 capability is unnecessary. |
| LTM4625EY#PBF | Same 40V input, but 2.5A output with different pinout (LGA), no negative output support, and no spread-spectrum mode. | Lacks Silent Switcher® EMI performance; requires external inductor; unsuitable for noise-critical RF/analog supplies. | Choose when board assembly prefers LGA over BGA, or when legacy LTM46xx layout reuse is prioritized over EMI optimization. |
Compared with LTM8064EY#PBF and LTM4625EY#PBF, the LTM8065EY#PBF uniquely combines 40V input tolerance, negative output capability, integrated inductor, and spread-spectrum synchronization-making it the only option for compact, low-EMI, dual-polarity industrial power designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTM8065EY#PBF?
The LTM8065EY#PBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 42V, with guaranteed operation from 3.4V to 40V. Operation above 40V risks permanent damage, and input transients (e.g., automotive load dump) must be clamped externally to remain within this limit. The device's 40V operational ceiling makes it suitable for 24V and 36V industrial bus systems.
Can the LTM8065EY#PBF generate negative output voltages?
Yes, the LTM8065EY#PBF supports negative output configurations from –3.3V to –18V when wired in inverting buck-boost topology. In this mode, the BIAS pin must be tied to the LTM8065 GND, and specific component values (e.g., RFB, COUT) are listed in Table 1 of the datasheet. This capability eliminates need for separate negative regulators in dual-rail systems.
How is the switching frequency programmed on the LTM8065EY#PBF?
The switching frequency of the LTM8065EY#PBF is set by connecting a resistor from the RT pin to GND. Values range from 10.7kΩ (3MHz) to 232kΩ (200kHz), per Table 2 in the datasheet. Stray capacitance at RT must be minimized; the pin must not be driven-only resistor-connected-to avoid instability or frequency drift.
What thermal considerations apply to the LTM8065EY#PBF's BGA package?
The LTM8065EY#PBF relies on its bottom thermal pads (GND banks A1/A4/A6) for heat transfer, with θJCbottom = 5.9°C/W. Effective thermal design requires ≥6 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter) under the GND array, connected to an inner-layer ground plane. Without proper thermal vias and copper area, junction temperature may exceed 125°C at 2.5A, triggering thermal shutdown.
Does the LTM8065EY#PBF require external components beyond input/output capacitors?
Yes-the LTM8065EY#PBF requires only input and output capacitors, one feedback resistor (RFB), and one frequency-setting resistor (RT) for basic operation. Optional components include a feedforward capacitor (AUX→FB), soft-start capacitor (TR/SS→GND), and external pull-up on PG. No external inductor, diodes, or compensation network is needed due to full integration.
