Product details
Overview
LTC1775CS#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a synchronous step-down switching regulator controller driving external dual N-channel MOSFETs for high-efficiency DC/DC conversion. It features no-RSENSE VDS current sensing, 150kHz nominal fixed-frequency operation with injection-lock synchronization, ±1% 1.19V reference, and 99% duty-cycle dropout capability - enabling stable 10A output in notebook computer power rails.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1775CS#PBF datasheet, LTC1775CS#PBF pinout, LTC1775CS#PBF application, or LTC1775CS#PBF equivalent, this controller is selected for high-current, wide-input (4V–36V), adjustable-output (1.19V–VIN) buck designs requiring burst-mode efficiency at light load and robust overvoltage/foldback protection.
Technical Context
The LTC1775CS#PBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control using MOSFET VDS sensing to eliminate external sense resistors. Its error amplifier drives the ITH pin (0–2.4V range) to set peak inductor current, while internal 1.19V reference and programmable VPROG pin support 3.3V/5V/adjustable outputs via resistor divider or direct selection.
Synchronization is achieved via the SYNC pin, accepting external clocks from 100% to 150% of nominal 150kHz (i.e., 135–225kHz), with lock-in confirmed across 1.5:1 ratio. Burst Mode operation activates when ITH falls below 0.95V, clamping peak current to ~60mV/RDS(ON), and disables automatically when FCB < 1.19V forces continuous conduction.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 4V to 36V - supports automotive battery input, industrial 24V rails, and wide-range adapter inputs without pre-regulation. |
| VOUT Range | 1.19V to VIN - enables direct 3.3V/5V generation or low-voltage core supplies down to sub-1.2V with external divider. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 135–165kHz (typ. 150kHz), synchronizable to 100–225kHz - balances MOSFET switching loss vs. inductor size in high-current designs. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 260–340mV (typ. 300mV) - sets maximum peak inductor current without RSENSE, enabling high-current operation with logic-level MOSFETs. |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EXTVCC (1) | INTVCC Power Switch Input | Accepts 4.5–7V external supply to bypass internal LDO; reduces power loss when VOUT ≥ 4.7V is available. |
| SYNC (2) | Oscillator Synchronization Input | Enables clock injection lock across 1.5:1 frequency range; open or grounded = 150kHz; >1.2V = 225kHz. |
| RUN/SS (3) | Run Control & Soft-Start Capacitor Node | Pull <0.8V to shut down; capacitor to ground sets soft-start ramp time (~1s/µF) for controlled power-up sequencing. |
| FCB (4) | Forced Continuous Mode Bias | Tie to GND to disable Burst Mode; tie to INTVCC to enable Burst Mode; used for secondary-winding regulation in multi-output converters. |
| ITH (5) | Error Amplifier Compensation Output | 0–2.4V control voltage setting peak inductor current; compensation network connects here for loop stability. |
| SGND (6) | Signal Ground Reference | Return path for feedback network (VOSENSE, VPROG); must connect to COUT(–) to minimize noise coupling. |
| VOSENSE (7) | Output Voltage Feedback Input | High-impedance sense node for remote sensing or resistive divider; enables accurate regulation under PCB trace IR drop. |
| VPROG (8) | Output Voltage Selection Input | 0V = 3.3V output; INTVCC = 5V output; open = adjustable via VOSENSE divider - simplifies BOM across multiple output variants. |
| VIN (16) | Main Input Supply | 4–36V input connection; requires RC filter (1Ω + 0.1µF) for >3A applications to suppress high-frequency noise. |
| TK (15) | Top MOSFET Kelvin Sense | Direct connection to top MOSFET drain (separate from VIN) enables accurate VDS sensing independent of PCB trace resistance. |
| SW (14) | Switch Node | Connects to inductor and bootstrap capacitor (–); swings from diode-drop below GND to VIN - critical for layout EMI control. |
| TG (13) | Top Gate Driver Output | Drives top N-MOSFET gate with swing = INTVCC superimposed on SW node; requires low-inductance path to minimize shoot-through. |
| BOOST (12) | Bootstrap Capacitor Positive Terminal | Connects to (+) of bootstrap cap; swings from Schottky drop below INTVCC to VIN + INTVCC - enables high-side N-MOSFET drive. |
| INTVCC (11) | Internal 5.2V Regulator Output | Supplies gate drivers and internal circuitry; decoupled with ≥4.7µF tantalum to PGND; powered by VIN or EXTVCC if >4.7V. |
| BG (10) | Bottom Gate Driver Output | Drives bottom N-MOSFET gate between PGND and INTVCC; complements TG for synchronous rectification and high efficiency. |
| PGND (9) | Power Ground Return | Source connection for bottom MOSFET, CIN(–), and CVCC(–); separate from SGND to isolate high di/dt return paths. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output current supported by the LTC1775CS#PBF?
The LTC1775CS#PBF itself does not define a fixed maximum output current - it is a controller that drives external MOSFETs. With appropriately selected N-channel MOSFETs (e.g., SUD50N03-10), the LTC1775CS#PBF enables stable 10A continuous output, as verified in the典型 application circuit (Figure 1). Peak current depends on MOSFET RDS(ON), thermal design, and layout; the 300mV current sense threshold sets IPEAK ≈ 300mV / RDS(ON).
Does the LTC1775CS#PBF require an external current-sense resistor?
No, the LTC1775CS#PBF does not require an external current-sense resistor. It implements No-RSENSE™ technology by measuring the voltage drop (VDS) across the conducting top or bottom N-channel MOSFET to derive inductor current - eliminating sense-resistor power loss and board area while improving efficiency, especially at high currents.
How does the SYNC pin function on the LTC1775CS#PBF?
The SYNC pin on the LTC1775CS#PBF enables oscillator synchronization: left open or grounded → 150kHz nominal frequency; pulled above 1.2V → 225kHz; driven with external clock (135–225kHz) → injection lock with 1.5:1 frequency range. The rising edge of the external clock aligns top-MOSFET turn-on, reducing system EMI through deterministic switching.
Can the LTC1775CS#PBF be used for 3.3V and 5V outputs without external resistors?
Yes - the LTC1775CS#PBF supports pin-selectable outputs: tie VPROG to GND for 3.3V (±2.4%), tie VPROG to INTVCC for 5V (±2%), or leave VPROG open and use an external resistor divider from VOUT to VOSENSE for adjustable outputs (e.g., 1.19V–VIN). This eliminates trimming resistors in many standard voltage designs.
What protection features are built into the LTC1775CS#PBF?
The LTC1775CS#PBF integrates foldback current limiting (reducing peak current from 300mV to ~80mV during short-circuit), output overvoltage lockout (1.24–1.32V threshold), logic-controlled micropower shutdown (<30µA), and dropout counter for bootstrap capacitor recharge. These features protect both the controller and downstream loads during fault conditions without external components.
