Product details
Overview
LTC1155CS8#TR from Analog Devices is a dual high-side N-channel MOSFET gate driver IC with integrated charge pump, 8 µA standby current, 4.5V–18V supply range, and built-in overcurrent shutdown via drain-sense threshold (100 mV). It enables efficient high-side switching in battery-powered systems such as laptop power bus control and SCSI termination.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1155CS8#TR datasheet, LTC1155CS8#TR pinout, LTC1155CS8#TR application, or LTC1155CS8#TR equivalent, key selection criteria include micropower operation, short-circuit protection timing, gate voltage boost capability above VS, SO-8 package compatibility, and logic-level input thresholds for TTL/CMOS interfacing.
Technical Context
The LTC1155CS8#TR integrates two independent adaptive charge pump circuits that generate gate voltages up to VS + 9 V at 5 V supply and VS + 18 V at 12 V supply-enabling full enhancement of low-RDS(ON) N-channel MOSFETs without external components. Its analog comparator monitors drain-to-source voltage drop across an external sense resistor against a precision 100 mV internal reference.
Each channel features TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs with 1.3 V threshold and ~100 mV hysteresis, low-standby-current regulation (8 µA per device), and controlled turn-on/turn-off times (50–2000 µs depending on VS and CGATE). Short-circuit detection triggers sub-30 µs gate discharge via dedicated N-channel transistor.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 18 V - supports wide-input battery and industrial rails without external regulators |
| Standby Quiescent Current | 8 µA - enables multi-year operation in always-on low-power systems |
| Gate Drive Voltage Boost | VS + 6.0 V (min) at 5 V supply - ensures full enhancement of N-MOSFETs with VGS(th) up to 4 V |
| Drain Sense Threshold | 100 mV ±20 mV - sets precise current-limit point with minimal sense-resistor power loss |
| Turn-On Time (5 V, 1 nF) | 50–250 µs - balances EMI control and switching speed for capacitive loads |
| Short-Circuit Turn-Off Time | 5–30 µs - limits MOSFET energy dissipation during fault events to safe SOA levels |
| Input Logic Compatibility | TTL/CMOS - interfaces directly with microcontrollers and logic families without level-shifting |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side MOSFET driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS27082LDR | Single-channel, 2.7–18 V supply, 1.2 A max load, integrated current limit (no external sense resistor) | Fixed current limit vs programmable trip point; no drain-sense flexibility for precision current monitoring | Preferred for space-constrained single-load applications where fixed 1.2 A limit suffices and sense-resistor BOM reduction is critical |
| MAX14914ATP+ | Dual-channel, 9–36 V supply, integrated diagnostics (open-load, overtemp), SPI interface | Higher voltage rating and digital configurability; lacks micropower standby (120 µA typical) | Selected when system-level diagnostics, higher bus voltage tolerance, or programmable fault responses are required |
Compared with LTC1155CS8#TR, TPS27082LDR offers simpler integration but less design flexibility in current sensing, while MAX14914ATP+ adds intelligence and ruggedness at the cost of quiescent power and analog simplicity.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate drive voltage boost provided by the LTC1155CS8#TR?
The LTC1155CS8#TR provides gate drive voltage up to VS + 9.0 V minimum at 5 V supply and VS + 18 V minimum at 12 V supply, enabling full enhancement of N-channel MOSFETs with VGS(th) up to 4 V. This is achieved via an on-chip adaptive charge pump with no external capacitors required. The LTC1155CS8#TR datasheet specifies these values under electrical characteristics Table 1, Conditions column "l".
Does the LTC1155CS8#TR support true dual independent operation?
Yes, the LTC1155CS8#TR contains two fully independent high-side gate drivers with separate IN, G, and DS pins. Each channel operates autonomously-input latching, sense threshold comparison, and gate discharge are isolated. This allows concurrent control of two distinct loads, such as dual power rails or complementary half-bridge legs. The LTC1155CS8#TR block diagram (page 6) confirms separate analog and digital sections per channel.
How does the drain-sense overcurrent protection work in the LTC1155CS8#TR?
The LTC1155CS8#TR compares the voltage drop across an external sense resistor (connected between MOSFET source and ground) to an internal 100 mV reference. If the drop exceeds the threshold, the input latch resets and the gate is rapidly discharged (<30 µs). An optional RC network between DS pin and sense resistor adds programmable delay to prevent false trips during inrush. This mechanism is detailed in Applications Information (pages 7–8) of the LTC1155CS8#TR datasheet.
Can the LTC1155CS8#TR be used with P-channel MOSFETs?
No-the LTC1155CS8#TR is specifically optimized for N-channel high-side switching. Its charge pump architecture boosts gate voltage above VS to ensure full enhancement of N-MOSFETs, which is unnecessary and incompatible with P-MOSFETs requiring gate voltage below source. Using it with P-MOSFETs would result in improper biasing and potential failure. The LTC1155CS8#TR datasheet explicitly states "replaces P-channel high side MOSFETs" by enabling superior N-channel alternatives.
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC1155CS8#TR?
The LTC1155CS8#TR is rated for 0°C to 70°C ambient operating temperature, as indicated by the "C" grade suffix in its ordering code and confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table (page 2) of the LTC1155CS8#TR datasheet. This range applies to the SO-8 package variant (S8) and is validated across all electrical specifications unless otherwise noted.
