Description
LTC3330EUH
Nanopower Buck-Boost DC/DC with
Energy Harvesting Battery Life Extender
Demonstration Circuit 2048A is a nanopower buck-
boost DC/DC with energy harvesting battery life extender
featuring the LT C
®
3330. The LTC3330 integrates a high
voltage energy harvesting power supply plus a DC/DC
converter powered by a primary cell battery to create a
single output supply for alternative energy applications.
The energy harvesting power supply, consisting of an
integrated low-loss full-wave bridge with a high voltage
buck converter, harvests energy from piezoelectric, solar
or magnetic sources. The primary cell input powers a
buck-boost converter capable of operating down to 1.8V
at its input. Either DC/DC converter can deliver energy to
a single output. The buck operates when harvested energy
is available, reducing the quiescent current drawn on the L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks and Dust

battery to essentially zero. The buck-boost takes over
when harvested energy goes away.
A low noise LDO post regulator and a supercapacitor
balancer are also integrated, accommodating a wide range
of output storage configurations.
Voltage and current settings for both input and outputs
are programmable via pin-strapped logic inputs.
The LTC3330EUH is available in a 5mm × 5mm 32-lead
QFN surface mount package with exposed pad.

Refer to the block diagram within the LTC3330 data sheet
for its operating principle.
The LTC3330 combines a buck switching regulator and
a buck-boost switching regulator to produce an energy
harvestingsolutionwithbattery backup. The converters are
controlled by a prioritizer that selects which converter to
use based on the availability of abattery and/or harvestable
energy. If harvested energy is available, the buck regula-
tor is active and the buck-boost is off. With an optional
LDO and supercapacitor balancer and an array of different
configurations, the LTC3330 suits many applications.
The synchronous buck converter is an ultralow quiescent
currentpowersupplytailoredtoenergyharvestingapplica-
tions. It is designed to interface directly to a piezoelectric
or alternative A/C energy source, rectify and store the har-
vested energy on an external capacitor while maintaining a
regulated output voltage. It can also bleed off any excess
input power via an internal protective shunt regulator.
An internal full-wave bridge rectifier accessible via AC1
and AC2 inputs, rectifies AC sources such as those from
a piezoelectric element. The rectified output is stored on
a capacitor at the VIN pin and can be used as an energy
reservoir for the buck converter. The bridge rectifier has
a total drop of about 800mV at typical piezo-generated
currents, but is capable of carrying up to 50mA.
When the voltage on VIN rises above the UVLO rising
threshold the buck converter is enabled and charge is
transferred from the input capacitor to the output capaci-
tor. When the input capacitor voltage is depleted below
the UVLO falling threshold the buck converter is disabled.
These thresholds can be set according to Table 4 of the
data sheet which offers UVLO rising thresholds from 4V
to 18V with large or small hysteresis windows.
Tw o internalrails,CAPandVIN2,aregeneratedfromVIN and
are used to drive the high side PMOS and low side NMOS
of the buck converter, respectively. Additionally the VIN2
operating principle

rail serves as logic high for output voltage select bits UV
[3:0]. The VIN2 rail is regulated at 4.8V above GND while
the CAP rail is regulated at 4.8V below VIN. These are not
intended to be used as external rails. Bypass capacitors
should be connected to the CAP and VIN2 pins to serve
as energy reservoirs for driving the buck switches. When
VIN is below 4.8V, VIN2 is equal to VIN and CAP is held
at GND. VIN3 is an internal rail used by the buck and the
buck-boost. When the LTC3330 runs the buck, VIN3 will
be a Schottky diode drop below VIN2. When it runs as a
buck-boost VIN3 is equal to BAT.
The buck regulator uses a hysteretic voltage algorithm
to control the output through internal feedback from the
VOUT sense pin. The buck converter charges an output
capacitorthrough an inductor to avalue slightly higher than
the regulation point. It does this by ramping the inductor
current up to 250mA through an internal PMOS switch and
then ramping it down to 0mA through an internal NMOS
switch. When the buck brings the output voltage into
regulation, the converter enters a low quiescent current
sleep state that monitors the output voltage with a sleep
comparator. During this operating mode, load current is
provided by the buck output capacitor. When the output
voltage falls below the regulation point, the buck regulator
wakes up and the cycle repeats. This hysteretic method of
providingaregulatedoutput reduceslossesassociated with
FET switching and maintains an output at light loads. The
buck delivers a minimum of 100mA average load current
when it is switching. VOUT can be set from 1.8V to 5.0V
via the output voltage select bits OUT [2:0] according to
Table 1 of the data sheet.
The buck-boost uses the same hysteretic algorithm as
the buck to control the output, VOUT, with the same sleep
comparator. The buck-boosthas three modes of operation;
buck, buck-boost and boost. An internal mode compara-
tor determines the mode of operation based on BAT and
VOUT. In each mode, the inductor current ramps up to
IPEAK which is programmable via IPK [2:0]. See Table 3
of the data sheet.
An integrated low drop out regulator (LDO) is available
with its own input, LDO_IN. It will regulate LDO_OUT to
seven different output voltages based on the LDO [2:0]
selectionbits according to Table 2 of the data sheet. A mode
is provided to turn the LDO into a current-limited switch in
which the PMOS is always on. LDO_EN enables the LDO
when high and when low, eliminates all quiescent current
into LDO_IN. The LDO is designed to provide 50mA over
a range of LDO_IN and LDO_OUT combinations. The LDO
also features a 1ms soft-start for smooth output start-up.
Power good comparators, PGVOUT and PGLDO, produce
a logic high referenced to highest of VIN2, BAT and VOUT
less a Schottky diode drop. PGVOUT and PGLDO will
transition high the first time the respective converter
reaches the programmed sleep threshold, signaling that
the output is in regulation. The pin will remain high until
the voltage falls to 92% of the desired regulated voltage.
An integrated supercapacitor balancer with 165nA of
quiescent current is available to balance a stack of two
supercapacitors. Typically the input, SCAP, will be tied to
VOUT to allow for increased energy storage at VOUT with
supercapacitors. The BAL pin is tied to the middle of the
stack and can source or sink 10mA to regulate the BAL
pin’s voltage to half that of the SCAP voltage. To disable
the balancer and its associated quiescent current, the
SCAP and BAL pins can be tied to ground.

Using short twisted pair leads for any power connections,
with all loads and power supplies off, refer to Figure 3 for
the proper measurement and equipment setup.
Follow the procedure below:
1. BeforeconnectingPS1 to the DC2048A, PS1 must have
its current limit set to 300mA and PS2 must have its
current limit set to 500mA. For most power supplies
with a current limit adjustment feature the procedure
to set the current limit is as follows. Turn the voltage

connection to a Dust mote (Dc9003a-B)
Remove the battery from the BH1 holder on the bottom
side of the DC2048A. Attach a Dust mote to J1 of the
DC2048A, refer to Figure 4 for the proper setup. J1 is a
keyed connector and is connected to the left side of the
P1 connector on the Dust mote. Figure 12 is a schematic
of the Dust mote and the DC2048A interconnections plus
three extra connections which; 1) connect the SCAP to
VOUT, 2) connect BAL to the middle of the supercapacitors
and 3) connect EH_ON to OUT2. The DC2048A contains
NC7SZ58P6X universal configurable 2-input logic gates
that are input voltage tolerant and allow level shifting
between the LTC3330 and the Dust mote.

Piezoelectric Transducer Evaluation
Mount a series connected MIDE V25W to a vibration
source and connect the electrical connections to the
AC1 and AC2 turrets. Activate the vibration source to
an acceleration of 1G and a frequency of 60Hz. Figure 5
shows an open circuit voltage of 10.6V for the Mide V25W
piezoelectric device that was tuned to 60Hz. In order to
set the VIN_UVLO_RISING and VIN_UVLO_FALLING
thresholds, the open circuit voltage of the piezoelectric
device must be measured. The internal bridge network of
the LTC3330 will have approximately 800mV drop at an
input current of 300µA.
The peak power load voltage of a purely resistive source
is at one half (½) of the rectified no load voltage. In this
case, the optimal average input voltage regulation level
would be 4.9V. Using a VIN_UVLO_RISING threshold of
6V and a VIN_UVLO_FALLING threshold of 5V(UV3 = 0,
UV2 = 0, UV1 = 1, UV0 = 0) yields an average input voltage
close to the theoretical optimal voltage.

Figure 7. Mide V25W Charging the 18µF Input
Capacitance from 4.48V to 5.92V in 208ms
Figure 6 is a plot of the output power and load voltage
of the V25W piezoelectric transducer into a 42.2kΩ load
for various rms acceleration levels. The output power
compares well with the input power that is charging CIN
during the sleep cycle between VIN_UVLO_FALLING and
VIN_UVLO_RISING thresholds at an acceleration force of
1grms, shown in Figure 7.
In Figure 7, the input capacitor is being recharged from
the V25W piezoelectric transducer. The input capacitor is
charging from 4.48V to 5.92V in 208 milli-seconds. The
power delivered from the V25W is 648µW.
Assuming that the circuit is configured as shown in
Figure 8, it will take a significant amount of time for the
piezo transducer to charge the 0.09F supercapacitor on
the output of the LTC3330. As used above, the 22µF input
capacitor is only 18µF at an applied voltage of 5V, so
every VIN_UVLO_RISING and FALLING event produces
26 micro-coulombs [(5.92V– 4.48V) • 18µF)] that may be
transferredfromthe input capacitor to the
outputcapacitor,
minus the losses of the buck regulator in the LTC3330.
The buck regulator efficiency is approximately 90% at VIN
equal to 5V and VOUT between 2.5V and 3.6V. Thus, for
every UVLO event, 23.3 microcoulombs are added to the
outputsupercapacitor. Given a0.09Foutput supercapacitor
charging to 3.6V, 324 millicoulombs are required to fully
chargethesupercapacitor.Assumingnoadditionalload on
the output, it takes 13,906 (.324/23.3e-6) UVLO events to
charge the output supercapacitor to 3.6V. From Figure 7, it
can be observed that each VIN_UVLO event takes 208ms
so the total time to charge the output capacitor from 0V
to 3.6V will be greater than 2900s. Figure 9 shows the no
load charging of the output supercapacitor, which takes
approximately 3300s. The above calculation neglects the
lower efficiency at low output voltages and the time it
takes to transfer the energy from the input capacitor to
the output supercapacitor so predicting the actual value
within –12% is to be expected.

Figure 11. Charging a Supercapacitor with a Battery Installed and a
Pulsed Load (VOUT = 3.6V)
Figure 10 shows the LTC3330 with a supercapacitor on
the output, a battery installed and the output voltage set
to 3.6V. The scope shots in Figure 11 were taken after
applying a pulsed load of 15mA for 10ms. With the battery
attached and a pulsed load applied, the EH_ON signal will
switch back and forth from high to low every time the
VIN voltage transitions from the VIN_UVLO_RISING to
VIN_UVLO_FALLING threshold. When the pulsed load is
applied, the output capacitor is depleted slightly and the
input capacitor must recharge the output cap. Because the
inputcapacitanceis much less than the output capacitance,
theinput capacitor will gothroughmany UVLO transitions to
charge the output capacitor back up to the sleep threshold.
Once the output is charged to the output sleep threshold,
the EH_ON signal will again be consistently high indicating
that the energy harvesting source is powering the output.

connection to a Dust mote (Dc9003a-B)
Figure 12 shows the LTC3330 with an output superca-
pacitor,a Dustmoteattached,a battery installedandEH_ON
connected to OUT2. In this configuration, when EH_ON
is low, VOUT will be set to 2.5V and when EH_ON is high,
VOUT will be set to 3.6V. The first marker in Figure 13 is
where the vibration source was activated; VIN then rises
above the VIN_UVLO_RISING threshold. EH_ON will then
go high causing VOUT to rise towards 3.6V(VOUT started
at 2.5V because the battery had charged it up initially).
At the same time EH_ON goes high, PGVOUT will go low,
since the new VOUT level of 3.6V has not been reached.
As the charge on VIN is being transferred to VOUT, VIN is
discharging and when VIN reaches its UVLO_FALLING
threshold, EH_ON will go low, causing the targeted VOUT
to again be 2.5V. Given that the output capacitor is very
large and the average load is less than the input power
supplied by the Mide piezoelectric transducer, the output
voltage will increase to the higher set-point of 3.6V over
many cycles. During the transition from the BAT set-point
Figure 12. Dust Mote Setup with a Supercapacitor,
a Battery and EH_ON Connected to OUT2
of 2.5V to the energy harvester set-point of 3.6V, VOUT is
above the 2.5V PGVOUT threshold, hence, PGVOUT will
go high every time EH_ON goes low. This cycle will be
repeated until VOUT reaches the PGVOUT threshold for the
VOUT setting of 3.6V. When a pulse load is applied that is
greater than the energy supplied by the input capacitor,
VIN will drop below the VIN_UVLO_FALLING threshold,
EH_ON will go low and the buck-boost regulator will be
ready to support the load requirement from the battery,
but will not start to switch until the supercapacitor is
discharged to 2.5V. In this way, the circuit can store a
lot of harvested energy and use it for an extended period
of time before switching over to the battery energy. The
supercapacitor could be sized to accommodate known
repeated periods of time that the energy harvester source
will not be available, such as overnight when a vibrating
machine is turned off or in the case of a solar application,
when the lights are turned off or the sun goes down.

While the EH_ON signal is low the buck-boost circuit
will consume 750nA from the battery in the sleeping
state. The effects of a pulsed load are shown in Figure 13
at approximately 1850s, where VIN is discharged and the
EH_ON signal pulses low to high for a brief period of time,
which occurred as a result of the Dust mote radio making
a data transmission.
Figure14shows the discharging of VOUT whenthe vibration
sourceis removed andVIN dropsbelowthe UVLO_FALLING
threshold causing EH_ON to go low. The supercapacitor
on VOUT will discharge down to the new target voltage of
2.5V at which point the buck-boost regulator will turn on
supplying power to the Dust mote. The discharging of
the supercapacitor on VOUT provides an energy source
for short term loss of the vibration source and extends
the life of the battery.
Figure 15 is the same Dust mote configuration as Figure 12
butwithoutthe output supercapacitor.Figure 16 shows the
chargingoftheoutputwithout the
supercapacitor attached.
