Product details
Overview
LT3724MPFE#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-voltage, current-mode DC/DC controller IC for medium-power step-down, step-up, inverting, and SEPIC converters. It operates from 4V–60V input, delivers up to 36V output in buck topology, features 200kHz fixed-frequency operation, ±1.3% reference accuracy, and drives external N-channel MOSFETs. It is used in industrial power distribution and 12V/42V automotive systems requiring robust, low-quiescent-current regulation.
For engineers reviewing the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF datasheet, LT3724MPFE#TRPBF pinout, LT3724MPFE#TRPBF application, or LT3724MPFE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its –55°C to 125°C extended temperature grade, 150mV current sense threshold, Burst Mode® operation (<100µA quiescent), programmable soft-start, and integrated high-voltage bias regulator for gate drive.
Technical Context
The LT3724MPFE#TRPBF implements fixed-frequency current-mode control with slope/antislope compensation-ensuring stable operation across wide duty cycles without current limit degradation. Its error amplifier features 340µmhos transconductance and 62dB DC gain, enabling precise loop compensation via external RC networks on the VC pin.
It integrates a bootstrapped high-side gate driver (TG pin) capable of 9.8V ON voltage and 60ns rise/fall times, supporting large N-MOSFETs. The internal VCC regulator enables startup from VIN ≥7.5V and supports back-driving from VOUT for improved efficiency, while dedicated UVLO thresholds (VIN, VCC, BOOST) with hysteresis ensure reliable fault recovery.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
LT3724MPFE#TRPBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic TSSOP package (FE) with an exposed thermal pad internally connected to SGND (Pin 17). The package requires soldering the exposed pad to PCB ground for optimal thermal performance and noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (1) | Main supply input | Accepts 4V–60V; powers internal circuits and VCC regulator; must be decoupled locally to SGND. |
| NC (2) | No connection | Unbonded; leave floating or tie to SGND per layout best practice. |
| SHDN (3) | Enable/UVLO control | 1.35V rising threshold with 120mV hysteresis; pulls below 0.7V for full shutdown (<10µA IQ). |
| CSS (4) | Soft-start timing | Sinks 2µA to control output voltage slew rate; shorting to SGND disables soft-start. |
| BURST_EN (5) | Burst Mode enable | Ground to enable Burst Mode; connect to VCC to disable for continuous switching. |
| VFB (6) | Feedback input | Compares output voltage (via resistor divider) to 1.231V internal reference; regulates output. |
| VC (7) | Error amplifier output | Controls peak switch current; connects to integrator network for loop compensation. |
| SGND (8,17) | Signal ground | Low-noise analog reference; connects to –VOUT side of output caps; exposed pad must be soldered. |
| SENSE– (9) | Current sense negative | Connects to VOUT side of RSENSE; forms 150mV differential threshold with SENSE+. |
| SENSE+ (10) | Current sense positive | Connects to inductor side of RSENSE; senses inductor current for cycle-by-cycle limiting. |
| PGND (11) | Power ground | High-current return for VCC regulator and internal SW pull-down; ties to VCC capacitor negative. |
| VCC (12) | Bias supply node | Internally regulated from VIN; can be back-driven from VOUT to reduce dissipation and improve efficiency. |
| NC (13) | No connection | Unbonded; leave floating or tie to SGND. |
| SW (14) | Switch node | Connects to MOSFET source, Schottky cathode, and inductor; swings from VIN to ~–0.3V during off-time. |
| TG (15) | Bootstrapped gate driver | Drives N-MOSFET gate with fast edges; requires short/wide trace to minimize inductance and ringing. |
| BOOST (16) | Bootstrap supply | Charged via external diode from VCC; referenced to SW; supplies TG driver; max voltage = VIN + VCC. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Antislope compensation | Maintains full current limit capability across all duty cycles by offsetting slope compensation ramp on threshold. |
| Programmable soft-start | Directly controls output voltage slew rate via CSS capacitor to limit inrush, suppress overshoot, and support sequencing. |
| Internal high-voltage VCC regulator | Enables startup from VIN ≥7.5V and supports back-driving from VOUT for >90% efficiency at full load. |
| Thermal shutdown protection | Activates at TJ = 125°C (TJMAX); protects device during overload or poor heatsinking without latch-off. |
| Fixed-frequency current-mode control | Delivers fast line/load transient response and inherent cycle-by-cycle current limiting for reliability. |
| 16-pin TSSOP with exposed pad | Provides low thermal resistance (θJC = 10°C/W) and compact footprint for space-constrained industrial modules. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF?
The LT3724MPFE#TRPBF is fully specified and 100% tested over a junction temperature range of –55°C to 125°C. This extended temperature grade makes it suitable for under-hood automotive, avionics, and industrial environments where ambient temperatures exceed standard commercial or industrial limits. The MP grade also includes enhanced screening and reliability testing beyond the E and I grades.
Does the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF support synchronous rectification?
No, the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF is designed for nonsynchronous operation and requires an external Schottky diode for freewheeling. It does not integrate a bottom-side MOSFET driver or support synchronous rectification. For synchronous buck applications, consider the LT3800 or LTC3775 families, which provide complementary high- and low-side gate drive outputs.
How is Burst Mode operation enabled or disabled on the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF?
Burst Mode operation on the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF is controlled by the BURST_EN pin (Pin 5): connect it to SGND to enable Burst Mode (reducing quiescent current to <100µA at light loads), or connect it to VCC to disable Burst Mode and enforce continuous switching. The mode is not software-configurable and requires only this simple hardware connection.
What is the purpose of the antislope compensation in the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF?
The antislope compensation in the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF cancels the duty-cycle-dependent reduction in current limit caused by standard slope compensation. By adding a matching ramp to the current sense threshold, it preserves the full 150mV current limit across all duty cycles-enabling consistent overload protection and maximum power delivery regardless of input-output voltage ratio.
Can the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF be used in SEPIC or inverting topologies?
Yes, the LT3724MPFE#TRPBF supports SEPIC, inverting, step-up, and step-down topologies due to its current-mode architecture and flexible gate drive configuration. Its datasheet includes verified reference designs for all four configurations. Component selection-including transformer or coupled inductor, MOSFET voltage rating, and diode reverse voltage-must be validated per topology-specific stress analysis.
