The LT®8640S/LT8643S synchronous step-down regulator
features second generation Silent Switcher architecture
designed to minimize EMI emissions while delivering high
efficiency at high switching frequencies. This includes
the integration of bypass capacitors to optimize all the
fast current loops inside and make it easy to achieve
advertised EMI performance by reducing layout sensitivity.
This performance makes the LT8640S/LT8643S ideal for
noise-sensitive applications and environments.
Peak current mode control with a 30ns minimum on-time
allows high step-down ratios even at high switching
frequencies. The LT8643S has external compensation to
enable current sharing and fast transient response at high
switching frequencies.
Burst Mode operation enables ultralow standby current
consumption, forced continuous mode can control frequency
harmonics across the entire output load range, or spread
spectrum operation can further reduce EMI emissions.

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: The LT8640SE/LT8643SE is guaranteed to meet performance
specifications from 0°C to 125°C junction temperature. Specifications over
the –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by
design, characterization, and correlation with statistical process controls.
The LT8640SI/LT8643SI is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C
operating junction temperature range. The junction temperature (TJ, in
°C) is calculated from the ambient temperature (TA in °C) and power
dissipation (PD, in Watts) according to the formula:
TJ = TA + (PD • θJA)
where θJA (in °C/W) is the package thermal impedance.

Note 3: θ values determined per JEDEC 51-7, 51-12. See the Applications
Information section for information on improving the thermal resistance
and for actual temperature measurements of a demo board in typical
operating conditions.
Note 4: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to
protect the device during overload conditions. Junction temperature will
exceed 150°C when overtemperature protection is active. Continuous
operation above the specified maximum operating junction temperature
will reduce lifetime.

LT8640S/LT8643S
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 to 25V 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.
If no supply is available, tie to GND. However, especially
for high input or high frequency applications, BIAS should
be tied to output or an external supply of 3.3V or above.
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. This pin should be floated.
GND (Pins 3, 16, Exposed Pad Pins 25–28): Ground.
Place the negative terminal of the input capacitor as close
to the GND pins as possible. The exposed pads should
be soldered to the PCB for good thermal performance. If
necessary due to manufacturing limitations Pins 25 to 28
may be left disconnected, however thermal performance
will be degraded.
NC (Pins 4, 15): No Connect. This pin is not connected
to internal circuitry and can be tied anywhere on the PCB,
typically ground.
VIN (Pins 5, 6, 13, 14): The VIN pins supply current to
the LT8640S/LT8643S internal circuitry and to the internal
topside power switch. These pins must be tied together
and be locally bypassed with a capacitor of 2.2µF or more.
Be sure to place the positive terminal of the input capacitor as close as possible to the VIN pins, and the negative
capacitor terminal as close as possible to the GND pins.
BST (Pin 7): This pin is used to provide a drive voltage,
higher than the input voltage, to the topside power switch.
This pin should be floated.
SW (Pins 8–12): The SW pins are the outputs of the internal power switches. Tie these pins together and connect
them to the inductor. This node should be kept small on
the PCB for good performance and low EMI.
EN/UV (Pin 17): The LT8640S/LT8643S 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 LT8640S/
LT8643S will shut down.
RT (Pin 18): A resistor is tied between RT and ground to
set the switching frequency.
CLKOUT (Pin 19): In forced continuous mode, spread
spectrum, and synchronization modes, the CLKOUT pin
will provide a ~200ns wide pulse at the switch frequency.
The low and high levels of the CLKOUT pin are ground and
INTVCC respectively, and the drive strength of the CLKOUT
pin is several hundred ohms. In Burst Mode operation,
the CLKOUT pin will be low. Float this pin if the CLKOUT
function is not used.
SYNC/MODE (Pin 20): For the LT8640S/LT8643S,
this pin programs four different operating modes: 1)
Burst Mode operation. Tie this pin to ground for Burst
Mode operation at low output loads—this will result in
ultralow quiescent current. 2) Forced Continuous mode
(FCM). This mode offers fast transient response and
full frequency operation over a wide load range. Float
this pin for FCM. When floating, pin leakage currents
should be
