Product details
Overview
LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-performance, 60V-input synchronous boost controller driving dual N-channel MOSFETs in a constant-frequency current-mode architecture. It supports 4.5V–60V input (down to 2.3V post-startup), delivers up to 60V output, features ±1% 1.200V reference accuracy, 28µA no-load quiescent current, and operates across –55°C to 150°C for military-grade reliability.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF pinout, LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF application, or LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (24-pin 4mm × 4mm QFN), validated pin functions, confirmed light-load operation modes (Burst Mode®/pulse-skipping/forced continuous), absolute maximum ratings, and real-world efficiency vs. load data from Figure 1.
Technical Context
The LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF implements a current-mode control loop with an error amplifier comparing VFB to a precision 1.200V internal reference, modulating ITH voltage to regulate peak inductor current. Its dual-gate drivers (TG/BG) support 100% duty cycle capability and feature matched 20ns rise/fall times with 30ns dead-time control to prevent shoot-through.
It integrates a phase-lockable oscillator (75kHz–850kHz) and programmable fixed-frequency VCO (50kHz–900kHz), selectable via FREQ pin resistor or DC voltage. The PLLIN/MODE pin configures light-load behavior-Burst Mode® (grounded), pulse-skipping (1.2V < V < INTVCC–1.3V), or forced continuous (tied to INTVCC)-with OVMODE determining overvoltage response and synchronized-mode operation.

| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VBIAS (1) | Main bias supply input | Accepts 4.5V–60V; powers internal LDOs and logic - can be tied to VIN or VOUT for low-VIN operation post-startup. |
| PGOOD (2) | Open-drain power-good indicator | Asserts low when VFB deviates >±10% from 1.200V for ≥45µs - enables system-level fault detection and sequencing. |
| ILIM (3) | Peak current sense threshold select | GND/FLOAT/INTVCC sets 50mV/75mV/100mV trip point - configures current limit without external resistors. |
| INTVCC (5, 22) | Internal 5.4V LDO output | Powers gate drivers and control circuits; requires ≥4.7µF ceramic bypass - decoupling critical for noise immunity and stability. |
| FREQ (7) | Oscillator frequency programming | Resistor-to-GND or DC voltage sets 50kHz–900kHz - enables EMI optimization and layout-driven frequency selection. |

| SS (12) | Soft-start ramp generator | 10µA internal current charges external capacitor - linearly ramps VOUT from 0V to final value, preventing inrush and overshoot. |
| SENSE+ / SENSE– (13, 14) | Differential current sense inputs | 2.3V–60V common-mode range; ±0.3V differential limit - supports high-side RSENSE or low-side DCR sensing in noisy high-voltage rails. |
| VFB (15) | Error amplifier feedback input | Compares remote-sensed output voltage to 1.200V reference - enables precision regulation independent of PCB trace resistance. |
| ITH (16) | Error amplifier output / current limit threshold | 0.425V–2V range controls peak inductor current - serves as compensation node and direct current limit interface. |
| OVMODE (17) | Overvoltage protection mode select | GND enables OV latch-up (TG forced on); INTVCC disables OV action - allows fail-safe or graceful shutdown per system requirements. |
| SW (18) | Switch node connection | Connects to source of synchronous MOSFET and drain of main MOSFET - high dv/dt node requiring tight layout and Kelvin sensing. |
| TG (19) | Top gate driver output | Drives gate of synchronous N-MOSFET; supports 100% duty cycle - enables zero-voltage switching and high-efficiency boost at low VIN. |
| BOOST (20) | Floating supply for TG driver | Bypassed to SW with ceramic capacitor; powered via Schottky from INTVCC - sustains gate drive during high-duty-cycle operation. |
| BG (21) | Bottom gate driver output | Drives gate of main N-MOSFET; 20ns rise/fall time - minimizes conduction losses and enables high-frequency operation. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage for LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF after startup?
The LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF operates down to 2.3V after startup when VBIAS is powered from the output (VOUT) or another auxiliary supply. This enables deep discharge utilization of batteries and cold-cranking resilience in automotive and aerospace systems. Startup still requires ≥4.5V on VBIAS.
How does the ILIM pin configure current limiting on LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF?
The ILIM pin on LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF selects one of three factory-trimmed current sense thresholds: 42mV (ILIM = GND), 68mV (ILIM = floating), or 90mV (ILIM = INTVCC). This directly sets the peak inductor current trip point without external resistors, ensuring ±1% accuracy across temperature and simplifying design.
Can LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF synchronize to an external clock, and what is its lock range?
Yes, LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF accepts an external clock on the PLLIN/MODE pin and locks across 75kHz to 850kHz. The internal phase-locked loop forces the BG rising edge to align with the external clock's rising edge, enabling EMI reduction and deterministic timing in multi-rail systems.
What is the purpose of the EXTVCC pin on LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF, and how does it affect thermal performance?
The EXTVCC pin on LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF allows an external 4.5V–14V supply to power the INTVCC LDO, bypassing the VBIAS LDO. This reduces power dissipation in the controller by eliminating VBIAS-to-5.4V dropout loss - cutting thermal load by >300mW in high-current applications and improving system efficiency.
Does LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF support 100% duty cycle operation, and why is this important?
Yes, LTC3769MPUF#TRPBF supports 100% duty cycle for the top gate (TG), enabling regulation even when VIN approaches VOUT. This is critical for cold-cranking scenarios (e.g., automotive 6V start) and high-efficiency operation near input-output crossover, avoiding dropout and maintaining regulation without external circuitry.
