LT8614
Pin Functions
BIAS (Pin 1): The internal regulator will draw current from
BIAS instead of VIN 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 VOUT. If this pin is tied to a supply other
than VOUT use a 1µF local bypass capacitor on this pin.
INTVCC (Pin 2): Internal 3.4V Regulator Bypass Pin. The
internal power drivers and control circuits are powered from
this voltage. INTVCC maximum output current is 20mA.
Do not load the INTVCC pin with external circuitry. INTVCC
current will be supplied from BIAS if BIAS > 3.1V, otherwise
current will be drawn from VIN. Voltage on INTVCC will
vary between 2.8V and 3.4V when 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.
BST (Pin 3): 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.
VIN1 (Pin 4): The LT8614 requires two 1µF small input
bypass capacitors. One 1µF capacitor should be placed
between VIN1 and GND1. A second 1µF capacitor should
be placed between VIN2 and GND2. These capacitors must
be placed as close as possible to the LT8614. A third larger
capacitor of 2.2µF or more should be placed close to the
LT8614 with the positive terminal connected to VIN1 and
VIN2, and the negative terminal connected to ground. See
applications section for sample layout.
GND1 (6, 7): Power Switch Ground. These pins are the
return path of the internal bottom side power switch and
must be tied together. Place the negative terminal of the
input capacitor as close to the GND1 pins as possible. Also
be sure to tie GND1 to the ground plane. See the Applica-
tions Information section for sample layout.
SW (Pins 8, 9): The SW pins are the outputs of the internal
power switches. Tie these pins together and connect them
to the inductor and boost capacitor. This node should be
kept small on the PCB for good performance and low EMI.
GND2 (10, 11): Power Switch Ground. These pins are the
return path of the internal bottom side power switch and
must be tied together. Place the negative terminal of the
input capacitor as close to the GND2 pins as possible. Also
be sure to tie GND2 to the ground plane. See the Applica-
tions Information section for sample layout.
VIN2 (Pin 13): The LT8614 requires two 1µF small input
bypass capacitors. One 1µF capacitor should be placed
between VIN1 and GND1. A second 1µF capacitor should
be placed between VIN2 and GND2. These capacitors must
be placed as close as possible to the LT8614. A third larger
capacitor of 2.2µF or more should be placed close to the
LT8614 with the positive terminal connected to VIN1 and
VIN2, and the negative terminal connected to ground. See
the Applications Information section for sample layout.
EN/UV (Pin 14): The LT8614 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 VIN if the shutdown feature is not used. An
external resistor divider from VIN can be used to program
a VIN threshold below which the LT8614 will shut down.
RT (Pin 15): A resistor is tied between RT and ground to
set the switching frequency.
TR/SS (Pin 16): 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 LT8614
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 INTVCC
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.
