• Manufacturer Part Number: lt3505ems8e-trpbf
• Description: 1.2a, Step-down Switching Regulator In 3mm X 3mm Dfn
• Manufacturer: Linear Technology Corporation

PIN FUNCTIONS
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.
SW (Pin 2): The SW pin is the output of the internal power
switch. Connect this pin to the inductor, catch diode and
boost capacitor.
V
internal regulator and to the internal power switch. This
pin must be locally bypassed.
SHDN (Pin 4): The SHDN pin is used to put the LT3505 in
shutdown mode. Tie to ground to shut down the LT3505.
Tie to 2.3V or more for normal operation. If the shutdown
feature is not used, tie this pin to the V
provides a soft-start function; see the Applications Infor-
mation section.
GND (Pin 5): Tie the GND pin to a local ground plane
below the LT3505 and the circuit components. Return the
feedback divider to this pin.
IN
(Pin 3): The V
IN
pin supplies current to the LT3505’s
IN
pin. SHDN also
R
frequency of the LT3505 by connecting a resistor from
this pin to ground. The Applications Information section of
the data sheet includes a table to determine the resistance
value based on the desired switching frequency. Minimize
capacitance at this pin.
FB (Pin 7): The LT3505 regulates its feedback pin to 780mV.
Connect the feedback resistor divider tap to this pin. Set
the output voltage by selecting R1 according to:
A good value for R2 is 10.0k.
V
control loop by tying an external RC network from this
pin to ground.
Exposed Pad (Pin 9): The Exposed Pad must be soldered
to the PCB and electrically connected to ground. Use a
large ground plane and thermal vias to optimize thermal
performance.
