Key Features
- Ultra-low 2 µA quiescent current enabling years of battery life in always-on IoT and standby power designs
- Wide 4.3V to 38V input range supporting automotive, industrial, and telecom 12V to 24V rail applications
- 2 MHz fixed switching frequency minimizing external inductor and capacitor size for compact power stages
- Fixed 3.3V output simplifies design by eliminating feedback resistor divider for standard logic supply rails
- Current-mode PWM control with 1.2A output current for efficient DC-DC conversion in space-constrained boards
Applications
The LT3971EMSE-3.3#PBF is ideal for battery-powered IoT nodes, wireless sensors, and handheld devices where minimizing standby power is critical — its 2 µA quiescent current allows the system to remain powered for extended periods between active cycles. In automotive and industrial designs it steps down 12V or 24V rails to a clean 3.3V logic supply at 1.2A, supporting microcontrollers, sensors, and communication modules from a single regulator. The 2 MHz switching frequency keeps the LC filter components small enough to fit on dense multilayer PCBs alongside RF and signal-processing circuits.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 2 µA quiescent current of LT3971EMSE-3.3#PBF extend battery life in IoT designs?
With only 2 µA quiescent current, the LT3971EMSE-3.3#PBF draws negligible power during sleep intervals; a 1000 mAh battery powering a duty-cycled IoT node can sustain months of standby operation compared to regulators with 50 µA or higher IQ.
What input voltage range does LT3971EMSE-3.3#PBF support for automotive 12V systems?
It accepts inputs from 4.3V to 38V, fully covering the automotive 12V battery rail including cold-crank conditions down to 6V and load-dump transients up to 36V, making it suitable for in-vehicle 3.3V logic supply rails at 1.2A.
Why is a 2 MHz switching frequency beneficial for the LT3971EMSE-3.3#PBF power stage layout?
At 2 MHz, the required inductance and capacitance values are much smaller than at 300 kHz to 500 kHz — a 4.7 µH inductor and 10 µF output capacitors are typically sufficient — keeping the power stage footprint compact on dense multilayer boards.
Does LT3971EMSE-3.3#PBF require external resistors to set the output voltage?
No, the LT3971EMSE-3.3#PBF has a fixed 3.3V output internally, eliminating the feedback resistor divider needed by adjustable regulators and reducing external component count and board space in standard 3.3V microcontroller and communication module power supplies.
