Low Shutdown Current: <2µA
Output Adjustable Down to 1.25V
Low Profile (1mm) SOT-23 (ThinSOT™) Package
The LT
®
1933 is a current mode PWM step-down DC/DC
converter with an internal 0.75A power switch, packaged
in a tiny 6-lead SOT-23. The wide input range of 3.6V to
36V makes the LT1933 suitable for regulating power from
a wide variety of sources, including unregulated wall
transformers, 24V industrial supplies and automotive
batteries. Its high operating frequency allows the use of
tiny, low cost inductors and ceramic capacitors, resulting
in low, predictable output ripple.
Cycle-by-cycle current limit provides protection against
shorted outputs, and soft-start eliminates input current
surge during start up. The low current (<2µA) shutdown
provides output disconnect, enabling easy power man-
agement in battery-powered systems.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of the device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LT1933E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls. The LT1933I specifications are
guaranteed over the –40°C to 125°C temperature range.
Note 3:
Current limit guaranteed by design and/or correlation to static test.
Slope compensation reduces current limit at higher duty cycle.
Note 4:
Current flows out of pin.
Note 5:
Current flows into pin.

BOOST (Pin 1):
The BOOST pin is used to provide a drive
voltage, higher than the input voltage, to the internal
bipolar NPN power switch.
GND (Pin 2):
Tie the GND pin to a local ground plane below
the LT1933 and the circuit components. Return the feed-
back divider to this pin.
FB (Pin 3):
The LT1933 regulates its feedback pin to
1.245V. Connect the feedback resistor divider tap to this
pin. Set the output voltage according to V
OUT
= 1.245V
(1 + R1/R2). A good value for R2 is 10k.
SHDN (Pin 4):
The SHDN pin is used to put the LT1933 in
shutdown mode. Tie to ground to shut down the LT1933.
Tie to 2.3V or more for normal operation. If the shutdown
feature is not used, tie this pin to the V
IN
pin. SHDN also
provides a soft-start function; see the Applications Infor-
mation section.
V
IN
(Pin 5):
The V
IN
pin supplies current to the LT1933’s
internal regulator and to the internal power switch. This
pin must be locally bypassed.
SW (Pin 6):
The SW pin is the output of the internal power
switch. Connect this pin to the inductor, catch diode and
boost capacitor.
