Product details
Overview
LT8228HFE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a 100V bidirectional synchronous buck/boost controller supporting constant-voltage and constant-current regulation in both directions, with independent compensation networks, reverse supply protection, reverse current blocking, and fault reporting via FAULT/REPORT pins. It operates across –40°C to +150°C junction temperature and delivers programmable switching frequency from 80kHz to 600kHz.
For engineers reviewing the LT8228HFE#TRPBF datasheet, LT8228HFE#TRPBF pinout, LT8228HFE#TRPBF application, or LT8228HFE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional current limit accuracy (±2.5%), AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use, 38-lead TSSOP thermal performance (θJA = 25°C/W), and masterless paralleling capability for high-reliability power systems.
Technical Context
The LT8228HFE#TRPBF implements dual-loop control with separate error amplifiers for V1 and V2 terminals, enabling independent voltage and current regulation in buck (V1→V2) and boost (V2→V1) modes. Its DRXN pin determines direction automatically or via external logic, while ISHARE enables masterless current sharing among parallel controllers without synchronization signals.
Protection architecture includes dedicated gate drivers (DG1/DG2) for external high-side MOSFETs at both terminals, with adjustable timer-based short-circuit protection on the boost output and ±40V negative voltage tolerance. Internal diagnostics monitor switching MOSFET shorts, inrush transients, and thermal faults, reporting through open-drain FAULT and REPORT pins.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for the LT8228HFE#TRPBF?
The LT8228HFE#TRPBF is rated for a maximum junction temperature of +150°C and is fully specified across –40°C to +150°C. This Grade H qualification meets AEC-Q100 requirements for under-hood automotive applications and enables reliable operation in high-ambient industrial environments without derating.
Does the LT8228HFE#TRPBF support automatic direction detection between buck and boost modes?
Yes, the LT8228HFE#TRPBF supports automatic direction detection via its DRXN pin, which transitions low for boost mode (V2→V1) and high for buck mode (V1→V2) based on relative voltage and current conditions. External control is also supported by driving DRXN directly, enabling deterministic sequencing in complex power architectures.
How does the LT8228HFE#TRPBF implement reverse current protection in buck mode?
In buck mode, the LT8228HFE#TRPBF monitors the SNS1P–SNS1N differential voltage; when it falls below –3mV (indicating reverse current flow from V2 to V1), the controller immediately disables DG1 to turn off the V1-side protection MOSFET, blocking reverse conduction while maintaining system isolation.
Can multiple LT8228HFE#TRPBF controllers be paralleled without a master clock signal?
Yes, the LT8228HFE#TRPBF features masterless, fault-tolerant current sharing via its ISHARE pin. Multiple units can be connected in parallel with no synchronization required, maintaining ±4% current sharing accuracy even if one controller fails or is hot-plugged, making it ideal for N+1 redundant power systems.
What protection features does the LT8228HFE#TRPBF provide against boost output short circuits?
The LT8228HFE#TRPBF provides boost output short-circuit protection via its TMR pin: upon overcurrent detection, an internal timer begins counting, and if the fault persists beyond the programmed delay, the boost output is disabled. This prevents destructive power dissipation in external MOSFETs during sustained shorts.
