Product details
Overview
LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a current-mode PWM controller optimized for active clamp forward converter topologies with integrated housekeeping DC/DC controller, supporting input voltages >100V, programmable 100–500kHz switching frequency, and synchronous rectification control via SOUT pin. It enables high-efficiency isolated power supplies in automotive and telecom applications.
For engineers reviewing the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF datasheet, LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF pinout, LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF application, or LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its HI-side active clamp topology support, INTVCC regulation at 9.4–10.4V, programmable volt-second clamp (DVSEC), and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive systems.
Technical Context
The LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF implements dual-loop control: a main forward controller (OUT/AOUT/SOUT) with adaptive leading-edge blanking and programmable timing delays (tAO, tOA, tSO, tOS), and an independent housekeeping controller (HOUT/HCOMP/HFB) operating up to 321kHz with soft-start and hiccup-mode overcurrent protection. Its HI-side active clamp topology (LT3752-1 variant) reduces primary switch voltage stress while enabling duty cycles above 50%.
It features two independent oscillators - one for the forward controller (100–500kHz) and one for the housekeeping controller (55–321kHz) - both programmable via RT resistor and foldback-capable during fault conditions. The device integrates internal regulators for INTVCC (9.4–10.4V) and HFB reference (0.90–1.10V), with dedicated UVLO/OVLO thresholds tailored for high-input-voltage operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 10.5V to 16V - supports high-input-voltage systems beyond 100V via external components, unlike LT3752 (6.5–100V). |
| Switching Frequency | 100kHz to 500kHz - programmable via RT resistor; line regulation ≤0.1%/V ensures stable operation across input range. |
| INTVCC Regulation | 9.4V to 10.4V - dedicated low-noise linear regulator powers internal circuitry and gate drivers; dropout ≤0.6V at 10mA. |
| Volt-Second Clamp (DVSEC) | Programmable via UVLO_VSEC pin - sets maximum duty cycle based on system input minimum (e.g., 72.5% at UVLO_VSEC = 2.5V, RT = 24.9k). |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Qualified for automotive applications - operates from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature (E-grade). |
| Gate Driver Outputs | OUT, AOUT (HI-side NMOS clamp), SOUT - all with <25ns rise/fall times (CL = 1nF), 11.9V high-level drive at INTVCC = 12V. |
| Housekeeping Controller | Integrated DC/DC controller with HOUT, HCOMP, HFB pins - provides auxiliary rail with 0.90–1.10V reference, 250µS transconductance, and hiccup-mode OCP. |
Pinout & Package
LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF is housed in a 38-lead plastic TSSOP package (FE38(31) variation) with missing pins for high-voltage spacing; exposed pad (Pin 39) is connected to PGND/GND and must be soldered to PCB for thermal and electrical performance.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF?
The LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF itself operates from 10.5V to 16V on its VIN pin, but is specifically designed for applications where the system input voltage exceeds 100V - achieved using external components such as a pre-regulator or resistive divider network. Its absolute maximum VIN rating is 16V, and it relies on external circuitry to safely interface with >100V sources. This distinguishes it from the standard LT3752, which supports up to 100V directly.
How does the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF implement HI-side active clamp control?
The LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF uses its AOUT pin to drive an external NMOS transistor in a HI-side configuration, enabling active clamp reset of the main transformer. Unlike the LT3752 (LO-side clamp), this topology allows higher efficiency and better voltage stress management at elevated input voltages. Timing delays tAO and tOA are independently programmable via resistors to optimize zero-voltage switching and minimize circulating energy.
Does the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF include an integrated auxiliary power supply?
Yes, the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF integrates a complete housekeeping DC/DC controller with dedicated pins (HOUT, HCOMP, HFB) to generate and regulate an auxiliary output rail. It supports soft-start, hiccup-mode overcurrent protection, output overvoltage detection, and power-good signaling - eliminating the need for a separate bias supply in most isolated forward converter designs.
What is the purpose of the UVLO_VSEC pin on the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF?
The UVLO_VSEC pin on the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF programs the volt-second clamp (DVSEC) threshold, which limits the maximum duty cycle to prevent transformer saturation. By applying a voltage between 0.2V and 0.6V, designers set a precise clamp level tied to the minimum system input voltage - enabling reliable operation above 50% duty cycle while maintaining stability across line and load variations.
Is the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the LT3752EFE-1#TRPBF is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications and rated for operation from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature (E-grade). It meets stringent automotive reliability, ESD, and lifetime requirements, making it suitable for use in EV power distribution, ADAS subsystems, and infotainment power supplies where high-voltage isolation and functional safety are critical.
