Product details
Overview
LTC3722IGN-2 from Analog Devices is a voltage-mode, phase-shift PWM controller for zero-voltage-switched (ZVS) full-bridge DC/DC converters. It delivers adaptive and fixed ZVS control, 50mA synchronous rectifier drivers (OUTE/OUTF), 5V reference output (±1.5% initial accuracy), and operates from –40°C to 85°C in a 24-pin SSOP package. Used in telecom infrastructure power supplies delivering up to 240W at 12V output.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3722IGN-2 datasheet, LTC3722IGN-2 pinout, LTC3722IGN-2 application, or LTC3722IGN-2 equivalent, key selection factors include ZVS delay programmability via ADLY/PDLY pins, SBUS-based adaptive line sensing, UVLO hysteresis tuning via external resistor divider, and compatibility with external gate drivers like LTC4440 and LTC3901.
Technical Context
The LTC3722IGN-2 implements voltage-mode control with internal RAMP input referenced to SBUS, enabling precise phase modulation without slope compensation circuitry. Its adaptive ZVS logic monitors SBUS voltage to dynamically adjust active/passive leg delays, while fixed-mode operation supports secondary-side control when SBUS = VREF.
It integrates six 50mA output drivers (OUTA–OUTF) with programmable turn-off timing (SPRG), 5V/5mA reference (VREF), 10.25V VCC UVLO with 4.2V hysteresis, and cycle-by-cycle current limiting triggered at 300mV on CS pin. All functions operate with quiescent current as low as 5mA and start-up current of 145µA.

FAQ
What is the function of the SBUS pin on the LTC3722IGN-2?
The SBUS pin on the LTC3722IGN-2 serves as the line voltage sense input for adaptive ZVS control. When connected to a resistor divider from VIN, it scales the input voltage to 1.5V at nominal conditions, allowing the LTC3722IGN-2 to dynamically adjust ADLY and PDLY delays. If tied directly to VREF, the LTC3722IGN-2 enters fixed ZVS mode-enabling secondary-side control architectures without primary-side sensing.
How does the LTC3722IGN-2 differ from the LTC3722IGN-1 in terms of control architecture?
The LTC3722IGN-2 uses voltage-mode control with an internal RAMP input, eliminating the need for external slope compensation. In contrast, the LTC3722IGN-1 employs peak current-mode control with programmable slope compensation and leading-edge blanking (via RLEB). This makes the LTC3722IGN-2 simpler to stabilize in feedback loops but less responsive to rapid load transients than the LTC3722IGN-1.
Can the LTC3722IGN-2 drive MOSFET gates directly, or does it require external gate drivers?
The LTC3722IGN-2 provides six 50mA output drivers (OUTA–OUTF) optimized for interfacing with external gate driver ICs-not for direct high-capacitance MOSFET gate driving. OUTA/OUTC require high-side gate drivers (e.g., LTC4440), while OUTB/OUTD are ground-referenced. OUTE/OUTF drive synchronous rectifiers on the secondary side and also interface with dedicated SR drivers like LTC3901.
What is the purpose of the SPRG pin on the LTC3722IGN-2?
The SPRG pin on the LTC3722IGN-2 sets the turn-off delay for synchronous rectifier drivers OUTF and OUTE. A resistor from SPRG to GND programs this delay-critical for preventing shoot-through in center-tapped or full-wave synchronous rectifier topologies. Typical values range from 10kΩ to 100kΩ, yielding delays from ~100ns to ~300ns, ensuring safe commutation between primary and secondary-side switches.
Does the LTC3722IGN-2 support synchronization with other controllers, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the LTC3722IGN-2 supports oscillator synchronization via the SYNC pin (Pin 1). It accepts CMOS/TTL-compatible input pulses and outputs a synchronized clock at half the input frequency. This enables interleaved multi-phase full-bridge operation-reducing input/output ripple and improving thermal distribution. The SYNC threshold is 1.9V, and minimum pulse width is 75ns, verified in production testing.
