Product details
Overview
LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-reliability, dual-phase synchronous boost controller for industrial and military power systems. It delivers up to 60V output from 4.5V–60V input (down to 2.3V post-startup), supports ±1% 1.200V reference accuracy, 75kHz–850kHz phase-lockable frequency, and RSENSE/DCR current sensing - enabling robust 24V/10A polyphase boost conversion in harsh environments.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF pinout, LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF application, or LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, thermal-grade package details (–55°C to 150°C), PolyPhase® timing architecture, and real-world design constraints including ILIM-selectable current sense thresholds (42/68/90 mV) and EXTVCC switchover at 4.8V.
Technical Context
The LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control with two out-of-phase N-channel MOSFET drive channels. Its dual-stage architecture uses independent SENSE1+/– and SENSE2+/– inputs with matched ±12 mV threshold tolerance, and integrates a 5.4V INTVCC LDO powered either from VBIAS (4.5V–60V) or EXTVCC (4.5V–14V), with automatic switchover at 4.8V.
It features three light-load operating modes selected via PLLIN/MODE: Burst Mode® (pin grounded), pulse-skipping (1.2V < V < INTVCC–1.3V), or forced continuous conduction (pin tied to INTVCC). Overvoltage protection behavior is configured by OVMODE pin state, and phase alignment across multiple controllers is managed through PHASMD and CLKOUT pins.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 60V (65V abs max); operates down to 2.3V after startup when VBIAS is powered from VOUT - enables battery-backed or wide-range industrial supply designs. |
| Output Voltage Range | Up to 60V regulated - supports high-voltage rail generation for industrial sensors, medical imaging subsystems, and avionics power conditioning. |
| Reference Voltage Accuracy | ±1% over –55°C to 150°C - ensures stable feedback loop performance across full military temperature range without external trimming. |
| Quiescent Current | 28µA in pulse-skipping/forced continuous mode; <4µA in shutdown - critical for low-power standby operation in remote or battery-powered systems. |
| Switching Frequency Range | Programmable 50kHz–900kHz or phase-locked 75kHz–850kHz - allows EMI optimization and inductor size reduction while maintaining tight synchronization in multi-controller stacks. |
| Current Sense Threshold Options | Selectable 42mV / 68mV / 90mV via ILIM pin (GND/FLOAT/INTVCC) - enables precise peak-current limiting with minimal I²R loss across diverse MOSFET RDS(on) values. |
| Package Thermal Resistance | θJA = 80°C/W (SSOP); exposed pad connected to PGND - validated for sustained operation at TJ = 150°C in convection-cooled industrial PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
Thermally enhanced 28-pin plastic SSOP package (LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF) with exposed pad connected to PGND. Rated for –55°C to 150°C junction temperature and qualified per MIL-PRF-38535 Class K requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (Pin 9) | Enable/Shutdown Control Input | Pulling below 1.28V disables control loops; below 0.7V reduces IQ to <4µA - enables system-level power sequencing with programmable hysteresis via external resistor divider. |
| SS (Pin 10) | Soft-Start Ramp Input | Internal 10µA current charges external capacitor to linearly ramp VFB reference from 0V to 1.2V - prevents inrush current and output overshoot during cold start. |
| VFB (Pin 13) | Error Amplifier Feedback Input | Compares resistive-divider-sensed output voltage against 1.200V reference - sets regulation point; ±5nA input bias minimizes divider error in high-impedance networks. |
| ITH (Pin 14) | Error Amplifier Output / Current Limit Threshold | Voltage sets peak inductor current trip point; transconductance of 2mmho enables stable Type II/III compensation with standard RC networks. |
| SENSE1+/–, SENSE2+/– (Pins 2,3,11,12,27,28) | Dual Independent Current Sense Inputs | Support RSENSE or DCR sensing with 2.3V–60V common-mode range; matching ≤±12mV ensures balanced phase current sharing in PolyPhase® operation. |
| ILIM (Pin 1) | Current Sense Threshold Selection | GND/FLOAT/INTVCC selects 42/68/90mV VSENSE(MAX) - configures current limit without external components, critical for fault tolerance in redundant power systems. |
| PLLIN/MODE (Pin 7) | Light-Load Mode & External Clock Input | Configures Burst Mode®, pulse-skipping, or forced continuous conduction; accepts external clock for phase synchronization across multiple LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF controllers. |
| OVMODE (Pin 15) | Overvoltage Protection Mode Select | GND enables OV latch-up (TG1/TG2 forced on); INTVCC disables OV latch and follows light-load mode - allows safe fail-safe or graceful degradation response. |
| PGOOD (Pin 28) | Open-Drain Power Good Indicator | Asserts low when VFB deviates >±10% for ≥45µs - provides reliable system monitoring without requiring external comparators or timers. |
| EXTVCC (Pin 21) | External Bias Supply Input | Switchover at 4.8V bypasses VBIAS LDO to reduce thermal load; must be decoupled and never floated - improves efficiency in high-input-voltage applications. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| PolyPhase® dual-channel operation | Reduces input/output capacitance by ~50% and lowers RMS input ripple current vs single-phase - extends capacitor lifetime in 10+ year industrial deployments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous boost controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3784HUFD#TRPBF | Same die, 4mm × 5mm QFN package with θJA = 43°C/W; rated –40°C to 150°C (not –55°C). | Preferred where board space is constrained and thermal mass permits lower θJA; unsuitable for cryogenic storage or cold-start military platforms. | Select when PCB layout allows QFN mounting and ambient extremes do not reach –55°C. |
| LTC3784MPUFD#TRPBF | Same die, QFN package, identical –55°C to 150°C rating; differs only in package type and marking. | Offers same military-grade reliability with superior thermal performance (θJA = 43°C/W) but requires rework of land pattern and stencil. | Choose for new designs prioritizing thermal headroom over legacy SSOP compatibility. |
Compared with LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF, the HUFD variant trades wider cold-temperature capability for better thermal dissipation in compact layouts, while the MPUFD offers identical spec compliance with improved θJA - making SSOP selection optimal only when backward compatibility with existing 28-lead SSOP footprints is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage for LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF after startup?
The LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF can operate down to 2.3V after startup when VBIAS is powered from the output rail (VOUT) or an auxiliary supply. This enables brownout recovery and operation from partially discharged batteries. The 4.5V–60V primary input range applies during initial startup and normal operation.
How does the ILIM pin affect current limiting in LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF?
The ILIM pin on LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF selects the peak current sense threshold: GND = 42mV, FLOAT = 68mV, INTVCC = 90mV. This directly sets the maximum allowable inductor current per phase, enabling precise overcurrent protection tailored to MOSFET RDS(on) and application fault margins without external components.
Can LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF synchronize to an external clock?
Yes, LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF supports external synchronization via the PLLIN/MODE pin. When driven with a clean CMOS clock signal, its internal PLL locks the rising edge of BG1 to the external clock's rising edge, enabling deterministic phase alignment across multiple LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF controllers in stacked PolyPhase® configurations.
What is the purpose of the OVMODE pin on LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF?
The OVMODE pin on LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF determines overvoltage protection behavior: GND enables latch-up (TG1/TG2 forced on until fault clears), while INTVCC disables latch-up and follows light-load mode. It also defines light-load operation when synchronized - grounding OVMODE forces continuous conduction during sync.
Does LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF support both RSENSE and inductor DCR current sensing?
Yes, LTC3784MPGN#TRPBF supports both methods. Its SENSE+ pins provide bias current for DCR sensing networks, and the 2.3V–60V common-mode range accommodates high-side or low-side RSENSE placement. Matching ≤±12mV between SENSE1 and SENSE2 ensures balanced current sharing in dual-phase operation.
