Product details
Overview
LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-phase, synchronous step-down switching regulator controller driving all-N-channel MOSFET stages. It delivers ±1.5% output voltage accuracy, 180° phase-shifted operation up to 300kHz, and supports 4.5V–28V input with 0.8V reference for 5V/3.3V microprocessor core supplies in notebook computers.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF pinout, LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF application, or LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include phase-lockable frequency synchronization, OPTI-LOOP compensation for wide output capacitance tolerance, dual independent RUN/SS soft-start control, and integrated 3.3V linear regulator with 10mA output.
Technical Context
The LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control with two independent 180° out-of-phase channels, each featuring transconductance error amplifiers (gm = 1.3 mmho, GBW = 3 MHz) and precision 0.8V feedback references. Its phase-locked loop accepts external sync signals via PLLIN and allows DC tuning of oscillator frequency (140–310 kHz) through PLLFLTR.
It integrates dual N-channel gate drivers (TG/BG), internal 5V LDO (INTVCC), external VCC switchover (EXTVCC ≥ 4.7V), and dedicated protection circuitry including latched short-circuit shutdown (via RUN/SS discharge), output overvoltage lockout (0.84–0.88V threshold), and foldback current limiting activated below 70% nominal VOUT.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 28V (30V absolute max); supports Li-ion, Li-poly, and 12V/24V industrial rails. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1.5% over temperature; enables tight regulation for CPU/GPU core supplies. |
| Switching Frequency | 140–310 kHz (PLL-tunable); 180° interleaving reduces RMS input ripple by ~39% vs single-phase. |
| Reference Voltage | 0.800 V ±1.5%; compatible with future low-voltage microprocessors and SoCs. |
| Shutdown IQ | 20 μA; minimizes battery drain in portable standby modes. |
| Power Good Threshold | ±7.5% window on both outputs; open-drain PGOOD asserts low if either channel deviates. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 65–88 mV (adjustable via RSENSE); sets peak inductor current limit with ±1.5% accuracy. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead narrow SSOP (GN), 0.150″ wide, –40°C to +85°C operating range. RoHS-compliant, lead-free finish (#TRPBF).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN/SS1, RUN/SS2 (1, 15) | Soft-start & latchoff timer inputs | Capacitor-based ramp controls startup current slew rate; <1.0V forces shutdown; >4.75V arms short-circuit latch. |
| SENSE1+, SENSE2+ / SENSE1–, SENSE2– (2,14 / 3,13) | Differential current sense inputs | Measure voltage across RSENSE to set per-channel peak current limit; common-mode range up to 1.6V. |
| VOSENSE1, VOSENSE2 (4, 12) | Remote feedback inputs | Accept resistive divider output for precise output voltage regulation; ±7.5% PGOOD trigger point. |
| PLLFLTR, PLLIN (5, 6) | PLL filter & sync input | DC voltage on PLLFLTR sets oscillator frequency; PLLIN accepts external clock (50kΩ internal termination) for phase alignment. |
| FCB (7) | Forced continuous/burst mode select | <0.8V forces continuous conduction; 0.8–2.8V enables Burst Mode; >4.3V disables burst (constant frequency). |
| ITH1, ITH2 (8, 11) | Error amplifier outputs | Control per-channel current comparator trip point; used for OPTI-LOOP compensation network connection. |
| SGND (9) | Small-signal ground | Must be isolated from PGND to prevent noise coupling into feedback and current sense paths. |
| 3.3VOUT (10) | Integrated linear regulator | Delivers 10mA DC (50mA peak) at 3.20–3.45V; powers auxiliary circuits without external LDO. |
| PGOOD (28) | Open-drain status output | Pulled low when either VOSENSE deviates >±7.5%; requires external pull-up to ≤7V. |
| TG1/TG2, BG1/BG2 (27,16 / 23,19) | Top/bottom gate drivers | Drive N-MOSFET gates with 50–110 ns transition times; TG swing = INTVCC–0.5V referenced to SW node. |
| VIN, INTVCC, EXTVCC (24, 21, 22) | Main input / internal LDO / external VCC | INTVCC = 4.8–5.2V regulated output; EXTVCC >4.7V bypasses internal LDO for higher efficiency. |
Key Features

| OPTI-LOOP Compensation | Allows stable loop response across wide COUT/ESR variations (e.g., 10μF–470μF ceramic or polymer), simplifying design reuse. |
| Programmable Operating Modes | FCB pin selects Burst Mode (high light-load efficiency), constant-frequency PWM (low noise), or forced continuous (secondary winding regulation). |
| Dual Independent Soft-Start | RUN/SS1 and RUN/SS2 support staggered startup sequencing for multi-rail systems and prevent inrush current stacking. |
| Integrated 3.3V Linear Regulator | Eliminates need for external 3.3V bias supply; delivers 10mA with ±2% load regulation for monitoring or level-shifting circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-phase synchronous buck controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3728CUH#TRPBF | Single-channel, 600kHz max, no PLL sync, no integrated 3.3V LDO, 38-lead QFN package. | Suitable for space-constrained single-output designs where phase sync and auxiliary rail not required. | Select when only one high-current rail is needed and board area favors QFN over SSOP. |
| MP2918GL-Z | Monolithic dual-phase controller (integrated MOSFETs), 4.5–28V input, 0.6–5.5V output, no PLLIN, no 3.3VOUT pin. | Targeted at cost-sensitive consumer applications where integration outweighs programmability and protection granularity. | Choose for simplified BOM and layout when discrete FETs are undesirable and full feature set of LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF is unnecessary. |
Compared with LTC3728CUH#TRPBF and MP2918GL-Z, the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF uniquely combines dual-channel phase synchronization, integrated 3.3V bias rail, and independent RUN/SS fault management-making it optimal for high-reliability, multi-rail embedded systems requiring precise sequencing and robust protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF?
The LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage (VIN) rating of 30V. Continuous operation is specified from 4.5V to 28V, making it compatible with 24V industrial rails, 12V automotive systems, and multi-cell Li-ion batteries. Exceeding 30V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF support external frequency synchronization?
Yes, the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF supports external frequency synchronization via the PLLIN pin (Pin 6), which features a 50kΩ internal termination to SGND. When driven with a clean square wave, the phase-locked loop aligns the rising edge of TG1 with the rising edge of the PLLIN signal, enabling deterministic timing across multiple converters.
How does the FCB pin affect operating mode selection in the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF?
The FCB pin (Pin 7) selects among three operating modes: <0.8V forces continuous conduction; 0.8–2.8V enables Burst Mode for high light-load efficiency; >4.3V disables burst (constant-frequency PWM). Leaving FCB floating is prohibited - it must be pulled to a defined voltage or grounded.
What is the function of the 3.3VOUT pin on the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF?
Pin 10 (3.3VOUT) is an integrated linear regulator delivering 3.20–3.45V at up to 10mA DC (50mA peak). It provides a clean, low-noise bias supply for auxiliary circuits - eliminating the need for an external 3.3V LDO in many designs and simplifying power tree architecture.
Can the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF operate in dropout condition, and what is its minimum on-time?
Yes, the LTC3707EGN-SYNC#TRPBF supports very low dropout operation with up to 99.4% duty cycle. Its minimum on-time is 180ns (tested with square-wave input), enabling regulation down to VOUT ≈ 0.1 × VIN - critical for high-step-down ratios like 24V-to-3.3V conversion.
