Product details
Overview
LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a current-mode DC/DC controller IC designed to drive external N-channel MOSFETs in flyback, boost, and SEPIC topologies. It delivers ±1.5% output voltage accuracy, supports 70kHz–700kHz adjustable switching frequency via a single resistor, features programmable overcurrent protection with automatic restart, and operates from 4.7V–8.8V VCC or high-VIN bias through internal 9.5V shunt regulator - enabling use in automotive auxiliary power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF pinout, LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF application, or LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10-lead MSOP package, 360µA quiescent current, 100mV current sense threshold, RUN pin with precision undervoltage lockout (4.5V turn-on), and compatibility with isolated and non-isolated step-up/step-down converter designs requiring robust fault management.
Technical Context
The LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF implements peak current-mode control using an internal error amplifier (gm = 333 µA/V), programmable slope compensation (10 µA ramp), and dual-threshold RUN pin logic (1.207V ON / 1.170V OFF). Its oscillator frequency is set by RFS (70–700 kHz) and can be synchronized externally via the SYNC pin.
It integrates a 9.5V internal shunt regulator on VCC, supports micropower startup (40 µA), provides soft-start/fault timeout via SSFLT pin (programmable with capacitor), and enforces duty cycle limits (6–95%) to prevent subharmonic oscillation and ensure stable operation across wide input/output ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Topology Support | Flyback, boost, SEPIC - enables isolated and non-isolated DC/DC conversion without transformer turns-ratio constraints. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1.5% - ensures tight regulation for sensitive loads like telecom housekeeping rails or PoE auxiliary supplies. |
| Switching Frequency Range | 70 kHz to 700 kHz - adjustable via single RFS resistor; higher frequencies reduce magnetics size, lower frequencies improve efficiency at light load. |
| Quiescent Current | 360 µA (normal), 40 µA (micropower start-up) - minimizes standby loss in always-on automotive or industrial systems. |
| VCC Operating Range | 4.7 V to 8.8 V direct supply, or high-VIN via internal 9.5 V shunt regulator - allows flexible biasing from battery, bus rail, or auxiliary winding. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 100 mV (typical) - low-loss sensing with minimal I²R dissipation in high-current boost converters. |
| Undervoltage Lockout | VTURNON = 4.5 V, VTURNOFF = 3.95 V - prevents erratic gate drive during brownout conditions in automotive 12 V systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-lead MSOP (3 mm × 3 mm), exposed pad (Pin 11) connected to GND for thermal and electrical performance. Rated θJA = 45°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SSFLT (1) | Soft-start & fault timeout timing node | Capacitor to GND sets soft-start ramp duration and post-fault restart delay; internal 6 µA charge / 2 µA discharge currents enable precise timing control. |
| ITH (2) | Error amplifier output / compensation point | Voltage (0.7–1.9 V clamped) sets peak current comparator threshold; RC network here defines loop stability and transient response. |
| FB (3) | Feedback input | Monitors resistive divider output; regulates VOUT to 0.800 V reference (±1.5%) - enables arbitrary output voltages (e.g., 5 V, 12 V, 24 V). |
| RUN (4) | Enable/disable control with hysteresis | 1.207 V turn-on / 1.170 V turn-off thresholds + 5 µA hysteresis current allow programmable VIN UVLO with external resistor divider. |
| FS (5) | Frequency set input | Resistor to GND programs fOSC = 24×10⁹/(RFS − 1500); enables optimization of EMI, efficiency, and component size. |
| SYNC (6) | External clock synchronization input | Accepts 70–700 kHz external clock; rising edge triggers GATE high - critical for noise-sensitive multi-rail systems. |
| ISENSE (7) | Current sense & slope compensation injection | Measures MOSFET source voltage; injects 10 µA linear ramp for slope compensation - prevents subharmonic instability in DCM/CCM boundary operation. |
| OC (8) | Overcurrent fault detection | Compares sensed current against programmable threshold (85–115 mV); triggers shutdown on overload/short-circuit with automatic restart. |
| VCC (9) | Supply input with internal shunt regulator | Internally clamped to ~9.5 V; accepts 4.7–8.8 V direct supply or high-VIN via series resistor - simplifies bias design in wide-input applications. |
| GATE (10) | N-MOSFET gate driver output | Drives external N-channel MOSFET gate with 30 ns rise/fall times; rated for capacitive loads up to 3000 pF. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable soft-start with fault timeout | Single external capacitor on SSFLT pin controls both startup ramp time and post-fault holdoff - eliminates need for separate timers or microcontroller intervention. |
| Adjustable slope compensation | 10 µA internal current ramp injected at ISENSE pin - enables stable current-mode control across full duty cycle range without external op-amp circuitry. |
| Synchronizable oscillator | SYNC pin accepts external clock (70–700 kHz) - allows EMI reduction via frequency alignment in multi-converter systems (e.g., base station power modules). |
| Precision RUN pin with user-programmable hysteresis | 5 µA hysteresis current sourced during operation - permits custom VIN UVLO window (e.g., 9–16 V for 12 V automotive) using two resistors only. |
| Low 100 mV current sense threshold | Minimizes power loss in high-current paths - supports efficient 1 A+ boost converters using <10 mΩ sense resistors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current-mode DC/DC controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT3751EMSE#TRPBF | Higher VCC rating (up to 100 V), integrated high-side gate driver, no SYNC pin - targets flyback controllers with direct high-VIN bias. | Designed for high-input-voltage flyback (e.g., 48 V telecom rectified bus), lacks programmable slope compensation and soft-start flexibility. | Select LT3751EMSE#TRPBF when input exceeds 12 V and integrated gate driver simplifies layout; avoid if slope compensation or SYNC is required. |
| UCC28083D | Fixed 100 kHz frequency, no programmable soft-start or RUN hysteresis, 2.5 V minimum VCC - TI's current-mode PWM controller with simpler feature set. | Targeted at cost-sensitive AC/DC PFC pre-regulators and fixed-frequency boost converters; lacks isolated topology support and precision UVLO. | Choose UCC28083D for basic boost applications where frequency stability and BOM cost outweigh programmability needs; not suitable for flyback or SEPIC. |
Compared with LT3751EMSE#TRPBF and UCC28083D, the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF offers broader topology flexibility (flyback/boost/SEPIC), finer control over timing (soft-start, fault timeout, SYNC), and superior precision (±1.5% VREF, 4.5 V UVLO) - making it optimal for automotive and industrial isolated auxiliary supplies demanding reliability and configurability.

FAQ
What is the maximum duty cycle limit of the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF?
The LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF enforces a maximum switch-on duty cycle of 95% at 200 kHz. This limit prevents subharmonic oscillation in continuous conduction mode and ensures stable current-mode control across all operating conditions. Duty cycle is automatically reduced below this threshold when output voltage sags or overcurrent conditions occur - a behavior confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Operation section of the datasheet.
Can the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF operate with input voltages above 8.8 V?
Yes, the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF can operate with input voltages well above 8.8 V when powered via the VCC pin through a series resistor. Its internal 9.5 V shunt regulator safely clamps VCC to approximately 9.5 V, allowing bias from 24 V, 48 V, or even higher rails - provided the shunt current remains ≤25 mA. This capability is explicitly documented in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Applications Information sections.
Does the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF support synchronous rectification?
No, the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF does not support synchronous rectification. It provides a single N-channel MOSFET gate drive signal (GATE pin) and relies on external diodes for rectification in flyback and boost topologies. The datasheet makes no provision for secondary-side gate control or adaptive dead-time management - confirming it is intended for use with standard diode-based outputs.
What is the purpose of the exposed pad (Pin 11) on the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF MSOP package?
The exposed pad (Pin 11) on the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF is electrically and thermally connected to GND. It must be soldered directly to a PCB ground plane to achieve the specified θJA = 45°C/W thermal resistance and ensure reliable operation at full load. This requirement is explicitly stated in the Pin Configuration diagram and Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the datasheet.
How is overcurrent protection configured on the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF?
Overcurrent protection on the LTC3805EMSE-5#TRPBF is configured using the OC pin, which senses voltage across the same external current-sense resistor used at ISENSE. An optional resistor between OC and GND adjusts the trip threshold from 85 mV to 115 mV - a method detailed in the Applications Information section under "Programmable Overcurrent." Fault detection triggers immediate shutdown and automatic restart after timeout.
