Product details
Overview
LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a synchronous push-pull PWM controller IC designed for isolated DC/DC converters. It implements peak current mode control with programmable slope compensation and leading edge blanking, delivers 1.5A sink / 1A source gate drive on DRVA/DRVB, supports up to 1MHz oscillator frequency (500kHz switching), and operates across –40°C to 85°C in telecom and infrastructure power systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF pinout, LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF application, or LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 16-pin SSOP package, adjustable dead-time via DPRG, system UVLO programming on UVLO pin, and synchronous rectifier timing control via SPRG and SDRB/SDRA outputs.
Technical Context
The LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF integrates dual high-current totem-pole drivers (DRVA/DRVB) switching at half the CT oscillator frequency, with independently programmable dead-time using an external resistor on DPRG. Its peak current mode architecture uses CS as the current sense input with 300mV pulse-by-pulse limit threshold and internal slope compensation sourced from the CT ramp.
It features a precision 5.0V reference (±1% initial accuracy), 1.2V FB regulation point, 10.25V VCC UVLO with 4.2V hysteresis, and low 145µA start-up current. Synchronous rectifier timing is decoupled via SPRG (turn-off delay) and RLEB (leading edge blanking), enabling optimization of secondary-side conduction losses in isolated topologies.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead plastic SSOP (GN), 5.0mm × 6.2mm body, 0.65mm lead pitch, exposed pad not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VREF (Pin 1) | 5.0V precision reference output | Supplies 18mA max; used to bias DPRG, RLEB, SPRG, and external divider networks - requires 0.47µF ceramic decoupling. |
| SDRB (Pin 2) | Synchronous rectifier driver B | 50mA sink/source output timed relative to DRVB; turn-off delay set by SPRG resistor - enables zero-voltage switching on secondary side. |
| SDRA (Pin 3) | Synchronous rectifier driver A | 50mA sink/source output timed relative to DRVA; independent from SDRB - supports asymmetric secondary configurations. |
| DRVB (Pin 4) | Primary-side push-pull driver B | 1.5A sink / 1A source totem pole; 10ns rise/fall into 1nF load - minimizes MOSFET switching losses in centertapped transformer designs. |
| VCC (Pin 5) | Supply input & shunt regulator | Self-regulates at 10.3V; sinks up to 40mA - eliminates need for external LDO; bypass with ≥1µF ceramic for transient immunity. |
| DRVA (Pin 6) | Primary-side push-pull driver A | 1.5A sink / 1A source totem pole, 180° out-of-phase with DRVB - forms complementary drive pair for balanced transformer excitation. |
| GND (Pin 7) | Analog/digital ground reference | Star-point connection for VIN/VREF bypass caps; mandatory ground plane use prevents noise coupling into CS and COMP nodes. |
| CT (Pin 8) | Oscillator timing capacitor node | 2.35V p-p ramp amplitude; sets frequency via CT = 1/(14.8k·FOSC); requires ±5% low-ESR ceramic for stability. |
| DPRG (Pin 9) | Dead-time programming input | 2V nominal voltage; resistor to VREF programs 90–300ns dead-time - prevents shoot-through during maximum duty cycle operation. |
| CS (Pin 10) | Current sense comparator input | Accepts voltage from sense resistor or current transformer; hosts 300mV pulse-by-pulse and 600mV shutdown comparators. |
| COMP (Pin 11) | Error amplifier output | Drives PWM modulator; open-loop gain 70–90dB; 400µA source / 2mA sink - interfaces directly with optocoupler feedback loops. |
| RLEB (Pin 12) | Leading edge blanking timing | 10k–100k resistor to GND sets 40–310ns blanking window - suppresses gate-drive-induced transients on CS during MOSFET turn-on. |
| FB (Pin 13) | Feedback voltage input | 1.2V regulation point; −0.3V to 2.5V input range - connects to resistive divider from isolated output for tight voltage regulation. |
| SS (Pin 14) | Soft-start timing capacitor | 13µA charging current ramps COMP voltage linearly; discharges during fault - prevents inrush current in hot-plug applications. |
| UVLO (Pin 15) | System undervoltage lockout | 5.0V threshold with 10µA hysteresis current - enables precise DC feed enable/disable using resistor divider from main input bus. |
| SPRG (Pin 16) | Synchronous rectifier turn-off delay | Resistor to GND sets delay referenced to DRVA/DRVB edges - optimizes body diode conduction time to minimize reverse recovery losses. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the function of the DPRG pin on the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF?
The DPRG pin on the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF programs the minimum dead-time between DRVA and DRVB outputs using an external resistor to VREF. With a nominal 2V bias, it adjusts dead-time from 90ns to 300ns - preventing shoot-through during maximum duty cycle operation in push-pull converters. This feature is essential for reliability at high switching frequencies and is unique to the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF among its class.
Does the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF support both current mode and voltage mode control?
No - the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF implements peak current mode control only, with programmable slope compensation and leading edge blanking. The voltage mode variant is the LTC3723-2 (e.g., LTC3723EGN-2#TRPBF). Confusing them risks incorrect loop compensation and instability; always verify the suffix "-1" or "-2" in the full part number LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF.
How does the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF achieve low start-up current?
The LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF achieves 145µA typical start-up current through optimized internal biasing and a dedicated low-leakage start-up path. This allows use of high-value (e.g., 430kΩ) resistors from AC/DC rectified inputs, minimizing standby power and enabling reliable cold-start from backup sources - a key advantage in telecom and industrial systems using the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF.
Can the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF be used in non-isolated topologies like forward converters?
Yes - the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF supports forward, half-bridge, and full-bridge topologies in addition to push-pull. Its 50% maximum duty cycle (reduced by programmed dead-time) suits two-transistor forward designs. Figure 6 in the datasheet shows LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF paired with LTC4440 for this purpose, confirming validated use beyond isolated push-pull applications.
What is the purpose of the RLEB pin on the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF?
The RLEB pin on the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF sets the duration of leading edge blanking applied to the CS current sense signal, using a 10k–100kΩ resistor to GND to program 40–310ns blanking windows. This suppresses gate-drive-induced transients during MOSFET turn-on, preventing false overcurrent trips - a critical function for stable operation in high-di/dt isolated converters using the LTC3723EGN-1#TRPBF.
