Product details
Overview
LT3757IDD#PBF from Analog Devices is a wide-input current-mode DC/DC controller supporting boost, flyback, SEPIC, and inverting topologies with single-feedback-pin polarity selection. It features 2.9V–40V input range, programmable 50kHz–1MHz switching frequency, internal 7.2V LDO, <1µA shutdown current, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the LT3757IDD#PBF datasheet, LT3757IDD#PBF pinout, LT3757IDD#PBF application, or LT3757IDD#PBF equivalent, this page delivers verified topology flexibility, precise UVLO hysteresis programming, soft-start timing control, and thermal-aware gate drive capability - all critical for battery-powered and automotive power supply design.
Technical Context
The LT3757IDD#PBF implements fixed-frequency current-mode control with slope compensation, enabling stable regulation across wide VIN and VOUT ranges. Its dual-reference feedback architecture (1.6V for positive outputs, –0.8V for negative) allows seamless configuration between boost/flyback/SEPIC and inverting modes using only the FBX pin and external resistor dividers.
It integrates a 7.2V low-dropout regulator (INTVCC) with 2.7V UVLO and 17.5V OVLO thresholds, programmable SHDN/UVLO with 1.22V nominal falling threshold and user-defined hysteresis, and frequency foldback during overcurrent to limit peak inductor current at startup and short-circuit conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.9V to 40V - supports direct connection to 12V/24V automotive rails and single-cell Li-ion up to 4S battery stacks. |
| Switching Frequency | 50kHz to 1MHz - set via RT resistor; enables optimization of efficiency vs. magnetics size and EMI profile. |
| Feedback Reference | +1.6V or –0.8V - selectable polarity on FBX pin eliminates need for separate positive/negative feedback networks. |
| Shutdown Current | <1µA - ensures minimal battery drain in always-on automotive modules or portable equipment standby. |
| SENSE Threshold | 110mV (typical) - defines accurate current-limit point for MOSFET protection and loop stability. |
| INTVCC Regulator | 7.2V ±0.2V - powers gate driver and internal circuitry; bypassed with ≥4.7µF ceramic capacitor near pin. |
| Operating Temp Range | –40°C to 125°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade I, suitable for under-hood and industrial ambient environments. |
Pinout & Package
LT3757IDD#PBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 10-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic DFN package with exposed pad (Pin 11) soldered to PCB ground for optimal thermal performance (θJA = 43°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VC (Pin 1) | Error amplifier compensation node | Accepts RC network to stabilize voltage loop; clamped during soft-start and fault conditions. |
| FBX (Pin 2) | Unified positive/negative feedback input | Detects output voltage via resistor divider; selects 1.6V or –0.8V reference based on polarity; triggers frequency foldback near GND. |
| SS (Pin 3) | Soft-start timing control | 10µA pull-up to 2.5V rail; external capacitor sets ramp time; reset by UV/OV/thermal events. |
| RT (Pin 4) | Frequency programming input | Resistor-to-GND sets oscillator frequency; must not be left floating. |
| SYNC (Pin 5) | External clock synchronization input | Accepts digital clock signal; requires RT setting 20% slower than SYNC frequency; ignored when FBX ≈ GND. |
| SENSE (Pin 6) | Current sense amplifier input | Kelvin-connected to high-side of sense resistor; monitors switch current for cycle-by-cycle limiting. |
| GATE (Pin 7) | N-channel MOSFET gate driver output | Sources/sinks to INTVCC/GND; forced low during shutdown, thermal lockout, or INTVCC UV/OV. |
| INTVCC (Pin 8) | Internal regulated supply output | 7.2V LDO output powering gate driver and logic; requires ≥4.7µF local ceramic bypass. |
| SHDN/UVLO (Pin 9) | Enable/disable and input undervoltage detection | 1.22V falling threshold with programmable hysteresis; resets soft-start on undervoltage; pulls VIN IQ below 1µA when ≤0.4V. |
| VIN (Pin 10) | Main input supply input | 2.9V–40V input; requires ≥0.22µF local ceramic bypass; powers internal LDO and bias circuits. |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 11) | Thermal ground and current sense return | Must be soldered to PCB ground plane; serves as SENSE resistor negative terminal and primary heat path. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DC/DC controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT3757AIDD#PBF | Improved load transient response; identical pinout, specs, and package; higher production test coverage. | Better suited for dynamic load applications like CPU core supplies where fast line/load regulation is critical. | Select LT3757AIDD#PBF when tighter output voltage deviation under rapid load steps is required; otherwise LT3757IDD#PBF remains fully compatible. |
| LM5155RUMR | Lower 2.97V min VIN; no negative output support; integrated high-side MOSFET driver only; no FBX polarity auto-detection. | Limited to boost/SEPIC; lacks inverting/flyback capability; requires external high-side FET for flyback. | Choose LM5155RUMR only for cost-sensitive boost-only designs where negative output and topology flexibility are unnecessary. |
Compared with LT3757AIDD#PBF, the LT3757IDD#PBF offers identical functionality at lower test-cost premium, while LM5155RUMR trades topology versatility for integration and lower VIN start-up - making LT3757IDD#PBF the optimal choice for multi-topology, automotive-grade, or bipolar-output requirements.

FAQ
What topologies does the LT3757IDD#PBF support?
The LT3757IDD#PBF supports boost, flyback, SEPIC, and inverting converter topologies using a single FBX pin for polarity selection. Its current-mode architecture with slope compensation ensures stable operation across all four configurations without external mode-select logic. The LT3757IDD#PBF achieves this through dual internal references (1.6V for positive outputs, –0.8V for negative), automatically selecting the active error amplifier based on FBX voltage polarity.
How is the switching frequency programmed on the LT3757IDD#PBF?
The LT3757IDD#PBF switching frequency is set using an external resistor from the RT pin to ground, covering 50kHz to 1MHz. Table 1 in the datasheet specifies exact RT values - e.g., 41.2kΩ yields 300kHz. The RT pin must never be left floating. For synchronization, the SYNC pin accepts an external clock; the RT resistor must then be selected for a frequency 20% slower than the SYNC signal to ensure reliable locking.
Can the LT3757IDD#PBF drive a P-channel MOSFET?
No, the LT3757IDD#PBF is designed exclusively to drive external N-channel MOSFETs via its GATE pin, which sources/sinks relative to INTVCC and GND. It lacks high-side gate drive capability or bootstrap circuitry required for P-channel or high-side N-channel configurations. The controller assumes low-side switch placement, as confirmed by the block diagram and typical application schematics showing the MOSFET source tied to ground.
What is the purpose of the exposed pad on the LT3757IDD#PBF DFN package?
The exposed pad (Pin 11) on the LT3757IDD#PBF serves two critical functions: it is the primary thermal conduction path to the PCB ground plane (reducing θJA to 43°C/W), and it acts as the Kelvin return for the SENSE resistor's negative terminal. Per the datasheet, this pad must be soldered directly to a solid copper ground plane - failure to do so compromises both thermal performance and current-sense accuracy.
Does the LT3757IDD#PBF include overvoltage protection?
Yes, the LT3757IDD#PBF includes dual overvoltage protection: FBX overvoltage comparators detect when the feedback voltage exceeds +1.6V by 8% (for positive outputs) or –0.8V by 11% (for negative outputs), triggering immediate MOSFET shutdown via the main RS latch. This protects downstream components during startup overshoot or output short-circuit recovery, independent of the main control loop.
