LTC3221EDC-5 Présentation

The Analog Devices LTC3221EDC-5 is a micropower, regulated charge pump DC/DC converter that delivers a fixed 5V output at up to 60mA from a 2.5V to 5.5V input, housed in a 6-lead 2mm x 2mm DFN package (DC suffix). It uses a switched-capacitor doubler/inverter topology with no external inductor required, drawing only 8uA quiescent current, and is specified for commercial 0C to 70C operation with design-assured -40C to 85C behavior.

A charge pump is a type of switched-capacitor voltage converter that moves charge between capacitors using MOSFET switches to step a DC voltage up, down, or invert it without magnetic components. Within the broader power management IC hierarchy, the LTC3221 sits in the family of DC-DC converters (specifically non-magnetic switching regulators) and is intended for low-noise, low-EMI point-of-load rails in space-constrained battery-powered designs where inductor selection, layout, and audible noise are unacceptable trade-offs.

Key features include 5V +/-4% regulated output (LTC3221-5 fixed version), 60mA output current, 8uA quiescent current, and very low shutdown current drawn from VIN. The device also features an SHDN logic pin for shutdown, comes in a tiny 2mm x 2mm DFN-6 (DC) package with exposed pad, and offers pin-selectable doubler/inverter configuration. The exposed thermal pad must be soldered to the PCB ground plane to meet thermal ratings and to provide the low-impedance return required by the charge-pump switches.

The architecture is a 1.5x/2x switched-capacitor doubler for the -5 variant, achieving regulation via an internal bandgap reference and comparator-controlled switch timing. Without an inductor, the LTC3221-5 produces lower radiated EMI than inductor-based boost converters, making it ideal for RF and audio-adjacent supplies where switching noise must be minimized. The trade-off is reduced efficiency versus inductive boost at high load, so it is optimized for low-current rails up to 60mA.

Typical applications include biasing LEDs from a single Li-ion cell, generating a clean 5V analog rail in portable instruments, and providing a low-ripple supply for sensors, op-amps, or low-power RF transceivers. The fixed 5V version simplifies design where downstream ICs require a stable 5V regardless of VIN above or below 5V.

When designing with this part, place the four external flying capacitors and bypass capacitors as close as possible to the VIN, CPO, CPO-, VOUT, and GND pins. The exposed pad must be soldered for both thermal dissipation and electrical ground, and SHDN must be tied to VIN for always-on operation or driven by a logic signal for sequencing.

Applications typiques

LTC3221EDC-5 convient pour 6 applications: Battery-Powered LED Bias Supply, Portable Instrument 5V Analog Rail, IoT Sensor Node Auxiliary Supply, Low-EMI RF Transceiver Bias Rail, USB-Powered 5V Generation from 2-Cell Input, Wearable / Hearable Device Power.

💡

Battery-Powered LED Bias Supply

The LTC3221EDC-5 fits battery-powered LED biasing because its fixed 5V output and 60mA current directly drive indicator or backlight LEDs from a single Li-ion cell (3.0V to 4.2V, VT). Unlike inductive boost converters that require a 4.7uH or larger inductor plus EMI filtering, the LTC3221-5 needs only four small ceramic capacitors and an exposed pad, reducing solution area below 25mm squared. Its 8uA quiescent current keeps standby drain negligible when LEDs are off via SHDN, materially extending battery life in always-on IoT devices. The 5V headroom also tolerates LED Vf up to 4.5V with series resistor.

🔧

Portable Instrument 5V Analog Rail

The LTC3221EDC-5 generates a clean 5V analog rail from a single Li-ion or 2xAA battery for portable instruments such as handheld multimeters, data loggers, and field sensors. Its 5V fixed output is the de-facto supply for legacy op-amps, sensor bridges, and reference ICs that require headroom above 3.3V. The 8uA quiescent current keeps idle drain low, and the inductor-free design eliminates audible noise from magnetostriction - critical for handheld medical and measurement devices. The 6-pin DFN package keeps the converter under 4mm squared, leaving room for analog front-end circuitry.

🧩

IoT Sensor Node Auxiliary Supply

For IoT sensor nodes, the LTC3221EDC-5 generates the 5V auxiliary rail needed by analog sensor front-ends (e.g. NDIR CO2 sensors, MEMS microphones with integrated pre-amps) from a 3.6V Li-ion primary cell. The 60mA load capability covers analog sensor bias plus a low-power microcontroller ADC reference, while the 8uA quiescent current is below typical battery self-discharge rates. The SHDN pin enables software-controlled sleep, and the tiny DFN footprint fits beneath an SoC package. EMI-free operation is also valuable when the same board hosts a sub-GHz or 2.4GHz radio.

🌐

Low-EMI RF Transceiver Bias Rail

The LTC3221EDC-5 powers noise-sensitive RF transceivers and PLLs by providing a clean 5V rail from a 3.3V system supply. Its switched-capacitor topology produces no inductor switching transients, unlike boost converters whose switching spikes couple into VCO tank circuits and degrade phase noise. The fixed 5V output is also useful for legacy RF front-end modules that require a 5V LNA or mixer bias. With 60mA available, it can supply a small LNA, mixer, and IF amplifier chain. The exposed pad keeps thermal rise minimal even at full 60mA continuous load at 3.6V VIN.

⚡

USB-Powered 5V Generation from 2-Cell Input

When a system is powered from 2x AA cells (3.0V nominal, dipping to 2.5V) but downstream USB or legacy 5V circuitry requires a stable 5V, the LTC3221EDC-5 charges capacitors in doubler configuration to deliver 5V at 60mA. The Analog Devices 3221f.pdf datasheet explicitly supports this topology. The wide 2.5V to 5.5V input range means the converter operates across the entire discharge curve of the cells, and the 8uA quiescent current does not waste energy when the 5V rail is not needed. The SHDN pin lets a host MCU disable the rail entirely.

📱

Wearable / Hearable Device Power

The LTC3221EDC-5 is well suited to wearable and hearable devices that need a 5V rail to bias MEMS microphones, Class-D audio pre-drivers, or haptic drivers from a single 3.7V Li-ion cell. Its 2mm x 2mm DFN footprint fits under an SoC or BGA package, and its 8uA quiescent current preserves battery life between audio events. The absence of inductors eliminates audible magnetic noise - a key requirement for in-ear audio devices. The exposed pad provides thermal dissipation for sustained 60mA loads during haptic events.

What is the output voltage of LTC3221EDC-5?
The LTC3221EDC-5 delivers a fixed 5.0V output regulated within +/-4% tolerance. According to the Analog Devices 3221f.pdf datasheet, the -5 suffix denotes the 5V fixed output variant; the same die family also ships as LTC3221EDC-3.3 (fixed 3.3V) and LTC3221EDC (adjustable). The 5V option simplifies designs where downstream ICs require a stable 5V rail regardless of VIN above or below 5V.
How much output current can LTC3221EDC-5 supply?
The LTC3221EDC-5 supplies up to 60mA of output current at 5V. The Analog Devices 3221f.pdf datasheet confirms this 60mA rating across the 2.5V to 5.5V input range. Designers should de-rate for thermal and line conditions; the part is intended for low-current rails such as sensor bias, op-amp supplies, and indicator LEDs rather than power-hungry loads.
What is the quiescent current of LTC3221EDC-5?
The LTC3221EDC-5 draws only 8 microamps of quiescent current from VIN, making it well suited for always-on battery-powered applications. The 3221f.pdf datasheet highlights this figure as the Ultralow Power headline specification. Compared to inductor-based switching regulators that typically idle at hundreds of microamps, the LTC3221 family materially extends battery life in sleep-mode or quiescent-dominated duty cycles.
Does LTC3221EDC-5 require an inductor?
No, the LTC3221EDC-5 is a switched-capacitor charge pump and requires no inductor, only small ceramic flying and bypass capacitors. The Analog Devices 3221f.pdf datasheet explicitly states "No Inductors Needed." This eliminates magnetic components, reduces EMI, and removes inductor DCR losses, at the cost of lower efficiency than inductive boost converters at high step-up ratios.
What package does LTC3221EDC-5 come in?
The LTC3221EDC-5 ships in a 6-pin DFN package measuring 2 mm x 2 mm with 0.75 mm height and an exposed thermal pad. DigChip lists the JEDEC outline as MO-229WCCD-2. The exposed pad serves both as a thermal path and the low-impedance ground return required by the internal charge-pump switches, and must be soldered to a PCB ground pour for proper operation.

Multiple authorized distributors carry the part, indicating healthy inventory. For real-time stock and lead time, query the DigiKey/Mouser product pages directly before placing a purchase order.
What is the difference between LTC3221EDC-5 and LTC3221EDC-3.3?
The LTC3221EDC-5 outputs a fixed 5V regulated rail, while the LTC3221EDC-3.3 outputs a fixed 3.3V regulated rail. Both share the same 6-pin 2mm x 2mm DFN (DC) package, the same 8uA quiescent current, and the same switched-capacitor doubler/inverter topology per the 3221f.pdf datasheet. They are not drop-in for each other because the output voltage is fixed at the silicon level by a different feedback divider.
What is the best drop-in replacement for LTC3221EDC-5?
The best drop-in replacement for the LTC3221EDC-5 is the LTC3221EDC-5#PBF or LTC3221EDC-5#TRPBF itself, which are the same silicon in different shipping packaging (PBF = lead-free finish). For second-source drop-in, the LTC3221EDC-5#TRMPBF (tape and reel, 500-piece reel) shares identical die and pinout. All variants are same-brand Analog Devices and share the 6-pin DFN footprint, making them true drop-in parts.
Where can I download the LTC3221EDC-5 datasheet PDF?
The official LTC3221EDC-5 datasheet (document 3221f.pdf) is hosted at https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/3221f.pdf. It covers all three variants - LTC3221, LTC3221-3.3, and LTC3221-5. Mirror copies are also indexed on datasheets.com and alldatasheet.com. The datasheet includes the typical-application circuit, pinout, absolute maximum ratings, and the recommended external capacitor values.
What are the key specifications of LTC3221EDC-5 that engineers should know?
The LTC3221EDC-5 specs engineers should know: fixed 5V +/-4% output, 60mA maximum load current, 2.5V to 5.5V VIN range, 8uA quiescent current, very low shutdown current, 6-pin 2mm x 2mm DFN with exposed pad, and 0C to 70C commercial temperature range with -40C to 85C behavior assured by design. No inductor is required. These figures come from the 3221f.pdf datasheet published by Analog Devices.
When should I choose LTC3221EDC-5 over a switching boost converter?
Choose the LTC3221EDC-5 over an inductor-based switching boost when EMI must be minimized, when 60mT of load is sufficient, when board space is at a premium (no inductor), and when battery life depends on 108uA-class quiescent current. Per the 3221f.pdf datasheet, it is ideal for biasing LEDs from a single Li-ion cell and for generating clean analog rails in portable instruments. Choose an inductive boost instead if you need >60mT or >5V output at high efficiency.
Can LTC3221EDC-5 replace an LT1931 inductor-based charge pump?
No - the LTC3221EDC-5 and LT1931AIS5#TRPBF are not drop-in compatible. The LTC3221EDC-5 is a fixed 5V output, 60mT switched-capacitor charge pump in 2mm x 2mm DFN-6, while the LT1931AIS5 is a 5-lead SOT-23 inductive boost with different output voltage and pinout. They serve different topologies and packages; replacing one with the other requires PCB redesign, including the removal of the LT1931 inductor and footprint change.

Guide de sélection

Choose the LTC3221EDC-5 when you need a fixed 5V regulated output from a 2.5V to 5.5V input at up to 60mA in a 2mm x 2mm DFN footprint, with absolute minimum external components and zero inductor switching noise. It excels in battery-powered LED bias, portable instrument 5V rails, and IoT sensor node auxiliary supplies where the 8uA quiescent current preserves battery life. Choose the LTC3221EDC-3.3 instead if your downstream rail is 3.3V rather than 5V; choose the LTC3221EDC for adjustable output. For >60mA load or >5V output, switch to an inductive boost converter (e.g. LT1931AIS5 family) and accept the trade-off in size, EMI, and audible noise.

Principaux différenciateurs

  • Inductor-free, lowest-EMI 5V generation in 6-pin DFN (vs LT1931AIS5#TRPBF inductive boost)
  • Ultra-low 8uA quiescent current (vs Typical inductive boost converters (200uA to 1mA Iq))
  • Same-package siblings for fixed 3.3V and adjustable outputs (vs LTC3221EDC-3.3 (fixed 3.3V, same DFN-6))

Notes de conception

Place the four external flying capacitors (CPO+, CPO-) and the VOUT bypass capacitor as close as possible to the LTC3221EDC-5 pins. The exposed pad MUST be soldered to a PCB ground pour for both thermal dissipation and the low-impedance ground return required by the internal charge-pump switches. Use 1uF or larger X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors (e.g. Murata GRM188R71C105KA12) for all flying and bypass positions to minimize voltage ripple on the 5V output.

Estimated: at 3.6V VIN, 5V VOUT, and 60mA continuous load, the LTC3221-5 dissipates roughly (VOUT - VIN) x IOUT = (5 - 3.6) x 0.06 = 0.084W in worst-case step-up operation. The 6-pin DFN exposed pad has a theta_JA around 60 C/W on a 1oz 4-layer 1sq-inch copper pour, giving a 5C junction temperature rise - well within the 0C to 70C commercial spec. For sustained 60mA loads, ensure adequate ground copper area under the exposed pad.

Do not exceed the absolute maximum VIN of 6V on the LTC3221EDC-5. Tie SHDN to VIN for always-on operation; floating SHDN can leave the part in an undefined state. The flying capacitors between CPO+ and CPO- MUST be rated for the VIN voltage plus margin (6.3V or 10V X7R recommended). Note that the LTC3221-3.3 is NOT a drop-in for the LTC3221-5 - output voltage is fixed at the silicon level and cannot be reconfigured externally.
