Product details
Overview
LT4356HS-3#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a high-voltage surge stopper IC that protects downstream loads by regulating output voltage during transients (e.g., automotive load dump) via external N-channel MOSFET gate control. It features adjustable 1.25 V feedback clamping, 50 mV overcurrent sense threshold, –40°C to 125°C operation, and reverse input protection to –60 V. Used in automotive power distribution and industrial hot-swap systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF datasheet, LT4356HS-3#TRPBF pinout, LT4356HS-3#TRPBF application, or LT4356HS-3#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include fault timer programmability, 80 V max operating voltage, latchoff behavior under sustained overvoltage/overcurrent, SOIC-16 package thermal performance (θJA = 100°C/W), and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use.
Technical Context
The LT4356HS-3#TRPBF implements dual-fault protection: overvoltage regulation via FB-pin servoing to 1.25 V with dynamic TMR charging proportional to (VCC – VOUT), and overcurrent limiting via SNS-VCC differential sensing capped at 50 mV. Fault timing uses a single external capacitor on TMR, with early warning (FLT low at 1.25 V) followed by latchoff (GATE pulled low at 1.35 V).
It integrates an auxiliary amplifier (AOUT/IN+) referenced to 1.25 V for level detection or linear regulator control, and supports back-to-back FET reverse polarity protection. Shutdown current is <7 µA, SHDN tolerates –60 V to 100 V, and GATE drive is clamped to VOUT + 10 V minimum with 150 mA pull-down capability during fault.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Voltage Range | 4 V to 80 V - enables cold-crank operation and compatibility with 24 V/48 V industrial and automotive systems. |
| Overvoltage Clamp Threshold | Adjustable via FB divider; internal 1.25 V reference sets regulated output - allows precise output voltage setting independent of input surges. |
| Overcurrent Sense Threshold | 50 mV across SNS–VCC - provides accurate, temperature-stable current limiting without external gain components. |
| Fault Timer Thresholds | FLT asserts at 1.25 V on TMR; GATE latches off at 1.35 V - enables configurable early warning and hard shutdown timing. |
| Shutdown Quiescent Current | <7 µA - ensures minimal battery drain in always-on automotive modules during sleep mode. |
| Package Thermal Resistance | θJA = 100°C/W (SO-16) - supports continuous operation up to 125°C ambient with moderate PCB copper area. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Grade H (–40°C to +125°C) - qualified for under-hood automotive applications per stress test requirements. |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adjustable latchoff fault timer | Single external capacitor on TMR sets both early warning interval and total fault timeout - simplifies transient ride-through tuning without firmware. |
| Back-to-back FET reverse polarity protection | Enables replacement of Schottky diode with two N-MOSFETs - reduces forward drop from ~0.4 V to <50 mV and eliminates reverse leakage. |
| Dynamic SOA-aware fault timing | TMR charging current scales with (VCC – VOUT) - shortens fault timeout under high VDS, keeping MOSFET within safe operating area. |
| Integrated auxiliary amplifier | 1.25 V-referenced op-amp with AOUT/IN+ pins - supports standalone voltage monitoring or drives external PNP for precision linear regulation. |
| Robust input voltage tolerance | VCC withstands –60 V reverse and 100 V absolute max on SHDN - eliminates need for external TVS or series diodes in harsh automotive environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar surge protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC4365IMS-3#TRPBF | Lower voltage range (4.5 V to 40 V); integrated MOSFET driver only (no external FET control); no auxiliary amplifier. | Targeted at lower-voltage consumer electronics; lacks programmable latchoff timer and reverse-input tolerance beyond –40 V. | Choose LTC4365IMS-3#TRPBF for compact 40 V systems where integrated simplicity outweighs 80 V headroom and SOA-aware timing. |
| TPS26631PWPR | Fixed 28 V overvoltage clamp; no adjustable FB; integrated 120 mΩ FET; no reverse-input rating or TMR-based adaptive timing. | Designed for USB PD and PoE-powered devices; not rated for automotive AEC-Q100 or >40 V transients. | Choose TPS26631PWPR for cost-sensitive, fixed-threshold 24 V industrial I/O modules requiring minimal BOM count. |
Compared with LTC4365IMS-3#TRPBF and TPS26631PWPR, LT4356HS-3#TRPBF uniquely supports 80 V operation, AEC-Q100 Grade H qualification, adaptive fault timing tied to MOSFET VDS, and dual-function auxiliary amplifier - making it the only option for high-reliability automotive load dump protection with external FET flexibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF can withstand?
The LT4356HS-3#TRPBF supports an operating voltage range of 4 V to 80 V on its VCC pin and can withstand reverse input voltages down to –60 V without damage. Its SHDN pin tolerates –60 V to 100 V, making it suitable for harsh automotive environments with load dump and reverse-battery conditions. This rating is confirmed across the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range.
How does the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF implement overvoltage protection?
The LT4356HS-3#TRPBF regulates output voltage during overvoltage events by servoing the FB pin to its internal 1.25 V reference, controlling the GATE pin to adjust the external N-MOSFET's conduction. When the TMR pin voltage reaches 1.25 V, FLT goes low as a warning; at 1.35 V, GATE is latched low to disconnect the load. The TMR charging current scales with (VCC – VOUT) to ensure MOSFET SOA compliance.
Does the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF support reverse polarity protection?
Yes - the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF enables reverse input protection using back-to-back N-channel MOSFETs instead of a Schottky diode. Its SHDN and VCC pins tolerate –60 V, and the GATE driver supports bidirectional control. This configuration reduces forward voltage drop to <50 mV and eliminates reverse leakage, improving efficiency and thermal performance in sealed systems.
What is the purpose of the auxiliary amplifier in the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF?
The auxiliary amplifier in the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF features IN+ and AOUT pins with an internal 1.25 V reference, allowing it to function either as a voltage detection comparator (e.g., battery undervoltage lockout) or as a linear regulator controller driving an external PNP pass transistor. It sinks up to 2 mA and operates independently of the main surge protection loop.
How is the fault timer configured on the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF?
The fault timer on the LT4356HS-3#TRPBF is set using an external capacitor connected between the TMR pin and GND. During overvoltage or overcurrent faults, a current source charges this capacitor; FLT asserts low at 1.25 V, and GATE latches off at 1.35 V. The charging current varies with (VCC – VOUT) to adapt timing to MOSFET stress - ensuring safe operation across the full 4 V to 80 V range.
