Product details
Overview
LT1336CS#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a half-bridge N-channel power MOSFET driver with integrated boost regulator for high-side gate drive up to 60V HV rail. It delivers 1.5A peak output current, supports 100% PWM duty cycle via adaptive bootstrap charging, and features TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs with 1.4V logic threshold and 300mV hysteresis. It is used in synchronous step-down regulators and 3-phase brushless motor control where shoot-through prevention and high-voltage floating drive are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LT1336CS#PBF datasheet, LT1336CS#PBF pinout, LT1336CS#PBF application, or LT1336CS#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 16-pin SO package, 10–15V supply range, 180ns gate transition times into 10,000pF load, adaptive nonoverlapping gate control, and dual undervoltage lockout (V+ and VBOOST–VTSOURCE) with hysteresis.
Technical Context
The LT1336CS#PBF implements two independent noninverting gate drivers - top-side floating and bottom-side grounded - each with dedicated Gate Drive (TGATEDR/BGATEDR) and Gate Feedback (TGATEFB/BGATEFB) pins enabling precise VGS monitoring and adaptive dead-time enforcement. Its internal switching regulator operates at ~700kHz in boost topology to maintain VBOOST–VTSOURCE at 10.6V during high-duty-cycle operation.
Shoot-through protection is implemented via input logic interlock and dynamic feedback-based release timing: top driver activation is inhibited until TGATEFB–TSOURCE falls below 2.9V, and bottom driver activation is inhibited until BGATEFB falls below 2.5V. Undervoltage lockout engages both outputs low when V+ drops below 7.8V (shutdown) or rises above 9.75V (start-up), and separately disables top drive when VBOOST–VTSOURCE falls below 8.2V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 10V to 15V - ensures stable operation across industrial SMPS input rails without external regulation |
| Top-Side Floating Voltage | Up to 60V - enables direct drive of high-side N-MOSFETs in buck, half-bridge, and motor phases |
| Peak Output Current | 1.5A - sufficient to charge/discharge ≥10,000pF gate capacitance within 180ns transitions |
| VBOOST Regulation | 10.6V ±0.6V - maintains reliable top-gate overdrive even at 100% duty cycle via internal hysteretic boost controller |
| Input Logic Threshold | 1.4V (low), 2.0V (high) with 300mV hysteresis - compatible with TTL/CMOS logic and immune to noise on noisy PCBs |
| ISENSE Threshold | 480mV typical - sets peak boost inductor current at 2Ω sense resistor for robust current limiting |
| UVLO Hysteresis | 0.5V - prevents oscillation during slow-ramping supplies or brown-out recovery |
Pinout & Package
LT1336CS#PBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic SO (S package) with θJA = 110°C/W, rated for 0°C to 70°C operation. Pin 1 is ISENSE; Pin 2 is SV+; Pins 3 and 4 are INTOP and INBOTTOM; Pin 5 is open-collector UVOUT; Pin 6 is SGND; Pin 7 is PGND; Pin 8 is BGATEFB; Pin 9 is BGATEDR; Pin 10 is PV+; Pin 11 is TSOURCE; Pin 12 is TGATEFB; Pin 13 is TGATEDR; Pin 14 is BOOST; Pin 15 is SWGND; Pin 16 is SWITCH.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ISENSE (1) | Boost regulator current sense input | Connects to 2Ω resistor to set 1.5A peak inductor current; open if boost not used |
| SV+ (2) | Main signal supply | 10–15V rail powering logic, UVLO, and gate drivers; requires local 1µF decoupling to SGND |
| INTOP (3) / INBOTTOM (4) | Noninverting TTL/CMOS inputs | Enable top/bottom drivers independently; interlocked to prevent simultaneous conduction |
| UVOUT (5) | Open-collector undervoltage indicator | Sinks current when V+ or VBOOST–VTSOURCE falls below threshold; used for system fault signaling |
| TGATEDR (13) / BGATEDR (9) | High-current gate drive outputs | Deliver 1.5A peak to MOSFET gates; series gate resistors recommended for EMI control |
| TGATEFB (12) / BGATEFB (8) | Direct gate voltage feedback inputs | Monitor VGS in real time to enforce adaptive nonoverlap; must connect directly to MOSFET gate |
| TSOURCE (11) | Floating return for top driver | Connects to source of high-side MOSFET and low side of bootstrap capacitor |
| BOOST (14) | Floating supply for top driver | Output of internal boost regulator; connects to high side of bootstrap capacitor |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar half-bridge N-channel gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRS21844STRPBF | Higher 600V HV rating; no integrated boost regulator; relies solely on external bootstrap diode/capacitor | Requires external bootstrap design; unsuitable for sustained 100% duty cycle; better for <90% duty cycle inverters | Select when HV rail exceeds 60V or when external bootstrap simplicity outweighs duty-cycle flexibility |
| LM5109BMAX/NOPB | 100V HV rating; built-in 12V gate drive clamp; no ISENSE or boost regulator; faster 25ns propagation delay | Lacks adaptive shoot-through protection and VBOOST regulation; requires external dead-time control | Select when ultra-fast switching (<50ns) is prioritized and system-level dead-time management is available |
Compared with IRS21844STRPBF and LM5109BMAX/NOPB, the LT1336CS#PBF uniquely integrates a 700kHz hysteretic boost regulator and adaptive gate feedback–based nonoverlap, enabling robust 100% duty cycle operation without external timing components or matched MOSFETs - a critical advantage in synchronous buck and high-duty-cycle motor control.

FAQ
What is the maximum high-voltage rail voltage supported by the LT1336CS#PBF?
The LT1336CS#PBF supports a maximum top-source voltage of 60V (absolute maximum rating). This allows direct drive of high-side N-channel MOSFETs in buck converters and motor phases operating from 40–60V DC buses. Exceeding 60V risks permanent damage; for >40V HV rails, the flyback topology must be used for the internal boost regulator per Linear's Applications Information section.
How does the LT1336CS#PBF prevent shoot-through in half-bridge configurations?
The LT1336CS#PBF prevents shoot-through using dual mechanisms: hardware interlock logic that disables one input when the other is active, and adaptive feedback-based timing - top driver activation is blocked until TGATEFB–TSOURCE falls below 2.9V, and bottom driver activation is blocked until BGATEFB falls below 2.5V. This eliminates reliance on matched MOSFETs or external dead-time circuits.
Can the LT1336CS#PBF operate at 100% duty cycle, and how is this achieved?
Yes, the LT1336CS#PBF sustains 100% duty cycle operation via its integrated hysteretic boost regulator, which activates when VBOOST–VTSOURCE drops below 10.6V. Unlike conventional bootstrap methods that fail above ~90% duty cycle, this internal 700kHz switching regulator recharges the bootstrap capacitor continuously, maintaining gate drive for the high-side MOSFET even with zero off-time.
What are the thermal limitations of the LT1336CS#PBF in SO package?
The LT1336CS#PBF in 16-lead SO package has θJA = 110°C/W. At 12V supply and 31mA total current, junction temperature reaches 126°C - exceeding the 125°C absolute maximum. Derating is required: for continuous operation at 70°C ambient, max dissipation must stay below 300mW. Layout with thermal vias and copper pour on PV+/PGND/SGND pads is strongly recommended.
Which external components are mandatory for basic LT1336CS#PBF operation with boost regulator enabled?
With boost regulator enabled, LT1336CS#PBF requires four mandatory external components: a 2Ω current-sense resistor (RSENSE) between ISENSE and SV+, a 200µH inductor between SWITCH and HV rail, a 1N4148 diode from BOOST to HV, and a 1µF bootstrap capacitor between BOOST and TSOURCE. Omitting any invalidates boost functionality and risks top-driver failure at high duty cycles.
