Product details
Overview
LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-performance PolyPhase® synchronous boost controller driving two out-of-phase N-channel MOSFET stages. It supports 4.5V–38V input, up to 60V output, ±1% 1.200V reference, and operates down to 2.5V after startup - enabling robust 12V-to-24V/10A industrial power conversion with reduced input/output capacitance and noise.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF pinout, LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF application, or LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2-phase current-mode control architecture, programmable 50kHz–900kHz switching frequency, RSENSE/DCR sensing flexibility, 135μA quiescent current in pulse-skipping mode, and –55°C to 150°C extended temperature operation in 28-pin SSOP package.
Technical Context
The LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF implements constant-frequency current-mode control with dual independent channels operating 180° out of phase. Its error amplifier regulates VFB against a precision 1.200V reference, while ITH voltage sets peak inductor current per channel. The internal 5.4V LDO powers gate drivers from either VBIAS or EXTVCC (switchover at 4.8V), supporting efficient high-side synchronous rectification.
Phase-lockable operation (75kHz–850kHz) enables synchronization across multiple controllers via PLLIN/MODE and CLKOUT pins. Light-load behavior is configurable via PLLIN/MODE: Burst Mode® (ground), pulse-skipping (1.2V–INTVCC−1.3V), or forced continuous (INTVCC). Soft-start is controlled by external capacitor on SS pin with 10μA internal charge current.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead plastic SSOP (GN), thermally enhanced, with exposed pad not present (unlike QFN). Pin pitch: 0.025", body dimensions: 10.2mm × 5.3mm. Requires standard SSOP reflow profile and single-point PGND connection at SGND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (Pin 6) | Enable/Shutdown Control Input | Pulls below 1.28V to disable control loops; below 0.7V reduces IQ to <8μA; supports resistor-divider VIN bias with 4.5μA hysteresis current. |
| VFB (Pin 10) | Error Amplifier Feedback Input | Compares resistive divider output against 1.200V reference; determines regulated output voltage setpoint. |
| ITH (Pin 11) | Current Limit Threshold & Compensation Node | Sets peak inductor current per phase; also serves as EA compensation point for loop stability. |
| SENSE1+/SENSE1– (Pins 12,27) | Channel 1 Current Sense Inputs | Differential inputs for RSENSE or DCR sensing; common-mode range 2.5V–38V supports high-side sensing. |
| TG1/BG1 (Pins 17,19) | Top/Bottom Gate Drivers | Drive gates of synchronous N-MOSFETs; 1.2Ω pull-up/pull-down resistance supports fast 20ns edge rates. |
| BOOST1/SW1 (Pins 18,16) | Bootstrap Supply & Switch Node | SW1 connects to inductor drain/main MOSFET source; BOOST1 supplies floating gate drive for TG1. |
| PGOOD (Pin 25) | Open-Drain Power Good Output | Asserts low when VOUT deviates >±10% from regulation; 25μs delay prevents false triggering during transients. |
| ILIM (Pin 26) | Current Sense Threshold Select | Connect to SGND/FLOAT/INTVCC to set VSENSE(MAX) = 50/75/100mV - calibrates current limit without external resistors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous boost controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3787IUFD#TRPBF | Same die, QFN-28 package (θJA = 43°C/W), rated –40°C to +125°C junction. | Better thermal performance in high-power density layouts; unsuitable for extended temperature military use. | Select when board space allows QFN and ambient temperature stays ≤125°C - improves efficiency by 2–3% at 10A due to lower thermal resistance. |
| LTC3781EGN#PBF | Single-phase version, same SSOP-28 package, –40°C to +125°C, max 40V output, no PLL sync. | Limited to lower power (≤5A) and lacks multiphase noise reduction or clock synchronization. | Choose for cost-sensitive, lower-current applications where interleaving and phase-locking are unnecessary - reduces BOM count by eliminating second MOSFET stage. |
Compared with LTC3787IUFD#TRPBF, the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF trades thermal performance for extended temperature qualification, making it irreplaceable in aerospace or defense systems requiring –55°C startup. Versus LTC3781EGN#PBF, it delivers 2× power handling and superior EMI control but requires more layout complexity and component count.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage supported by the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF?
The LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF supports output voltages up to 60V. This is enabled by its high-voltage gate drivers (BOOST1/BOOST2 rated to 76V, SW1/SW2 to 70V) and robust internal protection circuitry. The actual achievable output depends on external MOSFET ratings, inductor saturation current, and output capacitor voltage rating - but the controller itself is fully specified for 60V operation.
How does the ILIM pin affect current sensing on the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF?
The ILIM pin on the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF selects the maximum current sense threshold voltage: grounding sets VSENSE(MAX) = 50mV, floating yields 75mV, and connecting to INTVCC selects 100mV. This directly scales the peak inductor current limit without external resistors, simplifying design for different MOSFET RDS(on) or sense resistor values while maintaining ±12mV matching between channels.
Can the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF operate with only one phase active?
Yes, the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF can be configured for single-phase operation by leaving one channel unpopulated and tying unused SENSE, TG, BG, BOOST, and SW pins appropriately (e.g., SENSE2± to GND, TG2/BG2 open). However, phase-interleaving benefits - including reduced input/output ripple and EMI - are forfeited. The controller remains fully functional with one active channel.
What is the purpose of the PHASMD pin on the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF?
The PHASMD pin on the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF configures the phase relationship between BG1 and BG2 outputs, as well as between BG1 and CLKOUT. Floating, grounding, or tying to INTVCC selects 0°, 180°, or 90° phase offset respectively - enabling flexible multiphase daisy-chaining for 2-, 3-, 4-, 6-, or 12-phase systems while minimizing inter-channel timing skew.
Does the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF require an external clock to achieve synchronization?
No, the LTC3787MPGN#TRPBF contains an internal PLL and can synchronize to an external clock applied to the PLLIN/MODE pin, but it also supports standalone operation with programmable fixed frequency (50kHz–900kHz) set by the FREQ pin resistor. External clocking is optional and used only when precise system-level timing alignment across multiple converters is required.
