LT8610AX
42V, 3.5A Synchronous
Step-Down Regulator with
Operation to 175°C
DESCRIPTION
The
LT
®
8610AX
is a compact, high efficiency, high speed
synchronous monolithic step-down switching regulator
rated to 175°C junction temperature. The LT8610AX is
100% tested a 175°C. Top and bottom power switches
are included with all necessary circuitry to minimize the
need for external components. Low ripple Burst Mode
operation enables high efficiency across a wide range of
output currents while keeping the output ripple low. A SYNC
pin allows synchronization to an external clock. Internal
compensation with peak current mode topology allows
the use of small inductors and results in fast transient
response and good loop stability. The EN/UV pin has an
accurate 1V threshold and can be used to program V
IN
undervoltage lockout or to shut down the LT8610AX. A
capacitor on the TR/SS pin programs the output voltage
ramp rate during startup while the PG flag signals when
V
OUT
is within ±9% of the programmed output voltage
as well as fault conditions. The LT8610AX is available in
small 16-lead MSOP package with exposed pad for low
thermal resistance.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
Devices are 100% tested at 175°C to the limits shown. For normal
operating temperature range specifications, please see the LT8610A/
LT8610AB data sheet. The LT8610AX performance is based on the
LT8610AB.
Note 3.
The LT8610AX is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 175°C
operating junction temperature range. High junction temperatures degrade
operating lifetimes. Operating lifetime is derated at junction temperatures
greater than 125°C. The LT8610AX has no thermal shutdown.

LT8610AX
PIN FUNCTIONS
SYNC (Pin 1):
External Clock Synchronization Input.
Ground this pin for low ripple Burst Mode operation at low
output loads. Tie to a clock source for synchronization to
an external frequency. Apply a DC voltage of 3V or higher
or tie to INTV
CC
for pulse-skipping mode. When in pulse-
skipping mode, the I
Q
will increase to several hundred µA.
Do not float this pin.
TR/SS (Pin 2):
Output Tracking and Soft-Start Pin. This
pin allows user control of output voltage ramp rate during
start-up. A TR/SS voltage below 0.97V forces the LT8610AX
to regulate the FB pin to equal the TR/SS pin voltage. When
TR/SS is above 0.97V, the tracking function is disabled
and the internal reference resumes control of the error
amplifier. An internal 2.2μA pull-up current from INTV
CC
on
this pin allows a capacitor to program output voltage slew
rate. This pin is pulled to ground with an internal 230Ω
MOSFET during shutdown and fault conditions; use a series
resistor if driving from a low impedance output. This pin
may be left floating if the tracking function is not needed.
RT (Pin 3):
A resistor is tied between RT and ground to
set the switching frequency.
EN/UV (Pin 4):
The LT8610AX is shut down when this
pin is low and active when this pin is high. The hysteretic
threshold voltage is 1.00V going up and 0.96V going
down. Tie to V
IN
if the shutdown feature is not used. An
external resistor divider from V
IN
can be used to program
a V
IN
threshold below which the LT8610AX will shut down.
V
IN
(Pins 5, 6):
The V
IN
pins supply current to the LT8610AX
internal circuitry and to the internal topside power switch.
These pins must be tied together and be locally bypassed.
Be sure to place the positive terminal of the input capaci-
tor as close as possible to the V
IN
pins, and the negative
capacitor terminal as close as possible to the GND pins.
NC (Pin 7):
No Connect. This pin is not connected to
internal circuitry.
SW (Pins 9, 10, 11):
The SW pins are the outputs of the
internal power switches. Tie these pins together and con-
nect them to the inductor and boost capacitor. This node
should be kept small on the PCB for good performance.
BST (Pin 12):
This pin is used to provide a drive voltage,
higher than the input voltage, to the topside power switch.
Place a 0.1µF boost capacitor as close as possible to the IC.
INTV
CC
(Pin 13):
Internal 3.4V Regulator Bypass Pin.
The internal power drivers and control circuits are pow-
ered from this voltage. INTV
CC
maximum output cur-
rent is 20mA. Do not load the INTV
CC
pin with external
circuitry. INTV
CC
current will be supplied from BIAS if
V
BIAS
> 3.1V, otherwise current will be drawn from V
IN
.
Voltage on INTV
CC
will vary between 2.8V and 3.4V when
V
BIAS
is between 3.0V and 3.6V. Decouple this pin to power
ground with at least a 1μF low ESR ceramic capacitor
placed close to the IC.
BIAS (Pin 14):
The internal regulator will draw current from
BIAS instead of V
IN
when BIAS is tied to a voltage higher
than 3.1V. For output voltages of 3.3V and above this pin
should be tied to V
OUT
. If this pin is tied to a supply other
than V
OUT
use a 1µF local bypass capacitor on this pin.
PG (Pin 15):
The PG pin is the open-drain output of an
internal comparator. PG remains low until the FB pin is
within ±9% of the final regulation voltage, and there are
no fault conditions. PG is valid when V
IN
is above 3.4V,
regardless of EN/UV pin state.
FB (Pin 16):
The LT8610AX regulates the FB pin to 0.970V.
Connect the feedback resistor divider tap to this pin. Also,
connect a phase lead capacitor between FB and V
OUT
.
Typically, this capacitor is 4.7pF to 10pF.
GND (Pin 8, Exposed Pad Pin 17):
Ground. These pins
are the return path of the internal bottom-side switch and
must be tied together. Place the negative terminal of the
input capacitor as close to the GND pin and exposed pad
as possible. The exposed pad must be soldered to the PCB
in order to lower the thermal resistance.
