Product details
Overview
LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic high-voltage push-pull DC/DC transformer driver IC designed for isolated power generation in safety-critical and low-noise systems. It integrates dual 1A current-limited switches, programmable 50kHz–1MHz switching frequency, duty cycle control for line regulation, and precision UVLO/OVLO thresholds. It delivers stable isolated supplies in medical instrumentation and distributed power architectures.
For engineers reviewing the LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF datasheet, LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF pinout, LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF application, or LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its –55°C to 150°C extended temperature grade, 10-lead MSOP package with exposed GND pad, dual-switch cross-conduction prevention, <1µA shutdown current, and programmable soft-start via ILIM/SS pin.
Technical Context
The LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF implements a synchronous push-pull topology with out-of-phase switching of SWA and SWB, enabling efficient center-tapped transformer drive. Its oscillator supports internal RT-programmed operation up to 1MHz or external synchronization-critical for EMI-sensitive data acquisition and RS485 interfaces.
Duty cycle is actively controlled via OVLO/DC and RDC pins to compensate input voltage variation, while independent UVLO and OVLO thresholds (1.25V ±100mV) provide precise input rail monitoring. The ILIM/SS pin simultaneously configures cycle-by-cycle current limit and soft-start timing through resistor-capacitor networks.

Pinout & Package
LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF uses the 10-lead MSOP (MSE) package with exposed GND pad (Pin 11), requiring soldering to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical performance. Pin 1 is SWA; Pin 10 is SWB; Pin 11 is GND (exposed pad).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SWA (Pin 1) | Power switch A collector | Drives outer terminal of center-tapped transformer primary; handles 1A peak current |
| RBIAS (Pin 2) | Bias current reference | Sets internal switch bias via 49.9kΩ-to-GND resistor; stabilizes switching characteristics |

| OVLO/DC (Pin 5) | Overvoltage lockout / duty cycle control | Configurable as OVLO disable input or duty cycle reference node; 1.25V threshold with 125mV hysteresis |
| RDC (Pin 6) | Duty cycle programming | Resistor-to-GND sets duty cycle; floating or tied to OVLO/DC disables control and defaults to ~50% |
| RT (Pin 7) | Oscillator timing | Resistor-to-GND programs switching frequency from 50kHz to 1MHz per datasheet table |
| SYNC (Pin 8) | External clock input | Accepts >2V square wave; synchronizes internal oscillator for harmonic placement control |
| ILIM/SS (Pin 9) | Current limit / soft-start | Resistor sets current limit; capacitor sets soft-start ramp time; open defaults to 1A internal limit |
| GND (Pin 11) | Ground reference | Exposed pad; must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal dissipation and noise immunity |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF?
The LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF is 100% tested and guaranteed over a junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. This MP-grade qualification exceeds commercial and industrial grades, making LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF suitable for aerospace, downhole, and military applications where thermal stress is extreme. Derating applies above 125°C to ensure long-term reliability.
How does duty cycle control work on LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF?
LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF implements duty cycle control using the OVLO/DC and RDC pins: OVLO/DC is biased from VIN via resistor divider to create a voltage proportional to input, while RDC sets the reference. The internal circuit adjusts duty cycle (20%–48%) to maintain constant output despite VIN variation-enabling pseudo-regulation before post-LDO stages. Leaving RDC floating disables this function.
Can LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF synchronize to an external clock?
Yes, LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF supports external synchronization via the SYNC pin. It accepts a >2V square wave up to 1MHz; the internal oscillator must be set 10–50% lower than the sync frequency. Synchronization allows precise placement of switching harmonics-critical for compliance in EMI-sensitive applications like RS485 or data acquisition systems.
What is the purpose of the exposed pad on LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF?
The exposed pad (Pin 11) on LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF is electrically and thermally connected to GND. It must be soldered directly to the PCB ground plane using multiple thermal vias to achieve θJA = 40°C/W and ensure safe operation at full load. Failure to connect the pad degrades thermal performance and may cause premature thermal shutdown or reliability issues.
Does LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF support programmable current limiting?
Yes, LT3999MPMSE#TRPBF supports programmable current limiting via the ILIM/SS pin. A resistor (e.g., 43.2kΩ) sets the cycle-by-cycle current limit to 0.5A; open-circuit defaults to 1.0A internal limit. This feature protects external transformers and MOSFETs during fault conditions and enables controlled soft-start by combining the resistor with a capacitor.
