Product details
Overview
LT1336IS#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. It supports floating top-side operation up to 60V HV rail, delivers 1.5A peak output current, achieves 180ns transition times into 10,000pF load, and maintains gate drive at 100% duty cycle via adaptive bootstrap regulation. It is used in synchronous step-down regulators and 3-phase brushless motor control.
For engineers reviewing the LT1336IS#PBF datasheet, LT1336IS#PBF pinout, LT1336IS#PBF application, or LT1336IS#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range, 16-lead SO package, adaptive nonoverlapping gate drive logic, undervoltage lockout with 0.5V hysteresis, and dual independent TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs with shoot-through protection.
Technical Context
The LT1336IS#PBF implements two independent noninverting gate drivers - one floating (top) and one grounded (bottom) - each with dedicated Gate Drive (TGATEDR/BGATEDR) and Gate Feedback (TGATEFB/BGATEFB) pins to monitor VGS and enforce sequential turn-off-before-turn-on. Its internal switching regulator operates in hysteretic current mode at ~700kHz to recharge the bootstrap capacitor during high-duty-cycle PWM, eliminating reliance on bootstrapping alone.
Undervoltage protection is dual-stage: V+ UVLO (8.3V shutdown / 9.2V start-up) disables both channels, while VBOOST–VTSOURCE UVLO (8.7V shutdown / 9.3V start-up) independently disables the top driver. Input logic thresholds are regulated at 0.8V (low) and 1.7V (high) with 300mV hysteresis, supporting direct TTL/CMOS interfacing without level shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 10V to 15V - defines minimum operating voltage for reliable UVLO margin and maximum for internal bias stability. |
| Top Source Voltage Range | −5V to 60V - enables direct connection to high-voltage half-bridge nodes up to absolute max rating. |
| Peak Output Current | 1.5A (<10µs) - sustains fast gate charging for MOSFETs with >10nC Qg at high switching frequencies. |
| Gate Rise/Fall Time | 90–200ns (bottom), 130–200ns (top) into 10,000pF - determines achievable PWM frequency before transition losses dominate. |
| ISENSE Threshold | 480mV typical - sets peak inductor current limit in boost regulator; fixed hysteresis of 55mV prevents oscillation. |
| VBOOST Regulation | 10.6V typical (VBOOST–VTSOURCE) - provides stable gate overdrive for top N-MOSFETs independent of bootstrap diode drop. |
| UVLO Hysteresis | 0.5V - ensures clean, bounce-free enable/disable behavior under noisy or slowly ramping supply conditions. |
Pinout & Package
LT1336IS#PBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic SO (S package) with θJA = 110°C/W, rated for −40°C to +85°C industrial operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INTOP (3) | Top driver input | TTL/CMOS-compatible control signal; disabled when INBOTTOM is high to prevent shoot-through. |
| INBOTTOM (4) | Bottom driver input | TTL/CMOS-compatible control signal; disabled when INTOP is high for interlocked operation. |
| TGATEDR (13) | Top gate drive output | High-current source/sink node for top N-MOSFET gate; connects via optional series resistor to gate. |
| TGATEFB (12) | Top gate feedback | Direct connection to top MOSFET gate; inhibits bottom driver until VGS < 2.9V for safe commutation. |
| TSOURCE (11) | Top driver return | Reference node for floating top driver; connects to top MOSFET source and bootstrap capacitor low side. |
| BOOST (14) | Top driver supply | Regulated high-side supply node; connects to bootstrap capacitor high side and powers top driver stage. |
| BGATEDR (9) | Bottom gate drive output | Ground-referenced high-current driver for bottom N-MOSFET gate. |
| BGATEFB (8) | Bottom gate feedback | Direct gate monitoring node; inhibits top driver until VGS < 2.5V to prevent cross-conduction. |
| ISENSE (1) | Boost regulator current sense | Input to internal comparator setting peak inductor current; open if boost not used. |
| SWITCH (16) | Boost regulator switch | Internal NPN collector node driving external inductor/diode network; open if boost not used. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar half-bridge gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRS21844SPbF | Higher VBS rating (600V), no integrated boost regulator; requires external bootstrap diode/capacitor. | Targeted at higher-voltage AC inverters (>200V); lacks 100% duty cycle support without external circuitry. | Select IRS21844SPbF only when HV rail exceeds 60V and external bootstrap design is acceptable. |
| LM5109BMAX/NOPB | Fixed 12V gate drive, no ISENSE-based current limiting, no VBOOST UVLO; simpler architecture. | Optimized for cost-sensitive buck converters below 48V; lacks adaptive shoot-through protection and boost regulation. | Choose LM5109BMAX/NOPB for basic 12V synchronous buck designs where 100% duty cycle is not required. |
Compared with IRS21844SPbF and LM5109BMAX/NOPB, the LT1336IS#PBF uniquely integrates a 700kHz boost regulator and adaptive gate feedback logic - enabling true 100% duty cycle operation and eliminating MOSFET matching constraints in industrial motor and power supply designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum high-side voltage the LT1336IS#PBF can drive?
The LT1336IS#PBF supports a top-source voltage range of −5V to 60V, with an absolute maximum rating of 60V on the TSOURCE pin. This allows direct interface to 48V industrial bus systems and 60V-rated MOSFETs without level-shifting circuitry. Operation above 40V requires flyback topology for the internal boost regulator per the datasheet Applications Information section.
Does the LT1336IS#PBF require external bootstrap components?
The LT1336IS#PBF includes an integrated switching regulator that eliminates dependence on traditional bootstrap diodes and capacitors for 100% duty cycle operation. However, a bootstrap capacitor (≥1µF) and external inductor/diode network are still required when using the boost topology - Pins 1, 15, and 16 must be connected per Figure 1 in the datasheet for full functionality.
How does the LT1336IS#PBF prevent shoot-through in half-bridge configurations?
The LT1336IS#PBF prevents shoot-through using hardware-based adaptive nonoverlapping drive: it monitors TGATEFB and BGATEFB voltages in real time and enforces strict turn-off-before-turn-on sequencing. If either gate voltage remains above its threshold (2.9V top / 2.5V bottom), the opposing driver is held inactive - no external timing resistors or matched MOSFETs are needed.
What is the purpose of the ISENSE pin on the LT1336IS#PBF?
The ISENSE pin (Pin 1) serves as the current-sense input for the internal boost regulator's hysteretic current-mode controller. A 2Ω resistor between ISENSE and SV+ sets the peak inductor current limit (~480mV threshold). Leaving ISENSE open disables the boost regulator, reverting to basic bootstrap operation - but limits duty cycle to <90%.
Can the LT1336IS#PBF drive multiple MOSFETs in parallel?
Yes - the LT1336IS#PBF top and bottom drivers can each drive up to five N-channel MOSFETs in parallel. Gate decoupling resistors (10–47Ω) are recommended per MOSFET to suppress high-frequency oscillation. Performance data shows <200ns rise/fall times are maintained into 10,000pF total gate capacitance, confirming multi-MOSFET capability.
