Product details
Overview
LTC3862IGN-1#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a two-phase, constant-frequency, peak current mode boost and SEPIC DC/DC controller driving N-channel MOSFETs for high-voltage step-up conversion. It operates from 8.5V to 36V input, delivers up to 96% duty cycle, supports 75kHz–500kHz adjustable switching frequency, and integrates dual 10V gate drivers - enabling efficient 72V output generation in telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3862IGN-1#PBF datasheet, LTC3862IGN-1#PBF pinout, LTC3862IGN-1#PBF application, or LTC3862IGN-1#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 24-lead narrow SSOP package with –40°C to 125°C operating range, phase-synchronization capability via SYNC/CLKOUT/PHASEMODE, and precise ±1% internal voltage reference for stable output regulation.
Technical Context
The LTC3862IGN-1#PBF implements fixed-frequency, peak current mode control with two interleaved channels operating 180° out of phase to reduce input/output ripple. Its error amplifier compares FB voltage against a 1.223V reference and drives ITH to modulate peak inductor current, while slope compensation (adjustable via SLOPE pin) prevents subharmonic oscillation in continuous conduction mode.
It features cascaded LDOs: a 10V INTVCC regulator powers gate drivers (with 7.5V UVLO threshold), and a 3.8V 3V8 LDO supplies analog/digital circuitry. Phase synchronization uses an internal PLL with programmable PHASEMODE pin logic (0V/float/3.8V) to configure 2-/3-/4-/6-/12-phase operation across multiple ICs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Topology | Two-phase boost and SEPIC controller - enables interleaved operation to halve input/output capacitor requirements vs single-phase designs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 8.5V to 36V - supports wide-range industrial and telecom inputs including 12V, 24V, and 32V bus systems. |
| Switching Frequency | 75kHz to 500kHz (resistor-programmable) - allows optimization of magnetics size vs efficiency; supports external sync from 50kHz to 650kHz. |
| Max Duty Cycle | Up to 96% (via DMAX pin grounded) - enables high step-up ratios (e.g., 12V→72V) without requiring excessive turns ratio or low-VF diodes. |
| Gate Drive | 10V output referenced to PGND - sufficient to fully enhance high-voltage N-channel MOSFETs (e.g., 100V+ RDS(on)) with low conduction loss. |
| Reference Accuracy | ±1% over temperature - ensures tight output voltage regulation (e.g., 72V ±0.72V) without external trimming. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C (I-grade) - qualified for extended-temperature industrial and automotive under-hood applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 24-lead narrow plastic SSOP (GN24), 0.25-inch lead pitch, exposed pad not present (unlike QFN/TSSOP variants). Thermal resistance θJA = 85°C/W.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| DMAX (Pin 1) | Maximum duty cycle programming | Ground → 96%; float → 84%; connect to 3V8 → 75% - sets hard limit on on-time to prevent transformer saturation or overvoltage stress. |
| PHASEMODE (Pin 4) | Interleaving phase configuration | 0V → 180° CH1–CH2; float → 180° CH1–CH2 + 60° CH1–CLKOUT; 3V8 → 120° CH1–CH2 + 240° CH1–CLKOUT - enables scalable multi-phase expansion. |
| GATE1 / GATE2 (Pins 16, 18) | N-channel MOSFET gate drivers | 10V push-pull outputs with 3Ω pull-up / 0.9Ω pull-down - capable of driving >50nC gate charge at 300kHz with minimal dead-time distortion. |
| SENSE1+/SENSE2+ (Pins 23, 13) | Current sense positive inputs | Differential inputs to current comparators - used with low-side sense resistors (e.g., 20mΩ) to set per-phase peak current limit. |
| FB (Pin 8) | Error amplifier inverting input | Connects to resistor divider from VOUT - sets regulated output voltage as VOUT = 1.223V × (1 + R1/R2); ±1% reference ensures <±12mV error at 72V. |
| INTVCC (Pin 19) | 10V gate driver LDO output | Bypass with ≥4.7µF X5R ceramic to PGND - supplies gate drive current; UVLO at 7.5V prevents weak turn-on of high-voltage MOSFETs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Two-phase interleaved architecture | Reduces input RMS current by ~30% and cuts output voltage ripple amplitude by ~50%, allowing smaller bulk capacitors in 72V telecom systems. |
| Programmable slope compensation | SLOPE pin (Pin 2) adjusts gain: float = 1.0×, SGND = 0.625×, 3V8 = 1.66× - stabilizes current loop across varying duty cycles and inductance tolerances. |
| Leading edge blanking adjustment | BLANK pin (Pin 3) selects minimum on-time: SGND = 210ns, float = 290ns, 3V8 = 375ns - suppresses gate-drive-induced noise during MOSFET turn-on. |
| Precision RUN pin with hysteresis | 1.22V enable threshold with 80mV hysteresis - prevents erratic startup/shutdown near brown-out conditions in 24V industrial rails. |
| Multi-phase synchronization interface | SYNC input accepts 50–650kHz external clock; CLKOUT provides phase-aligned output; PHASEMODE configures inter-IC timing - supports up to 12-phase systems without external timing ICs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar boost controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3862EUH-1#PBF | Same die, 5mm × 5mm QFN package (θJA = 34°C/W), rated for –40°C to +85°C only. | Better thermal performance but narrower temperature range - suitable for space-constrained telecom modules with active cooling. | Select when board area is limited and ambient temperature stays below 85°C; avoid for under-hood or unventilated enclosures. |
| LTC3862IFE-1#PBF | Same functionality, 24-lead TSSOP package (θJA = 38°C/W), –40°C to +125°C rating, exposed thermal pad. | Lower thermal resistance than GN package and same temp grade - preferred for higher-power or thermally demanding layouts. | Choose for new designs needing improved thermal margin without QFN rework; compatible footprint with GN but better heatsinking. |
Compared with LTC3862IGN-1#PBF, the QFN variant offers superior thermal performance but sacrifices extended temperature capability, while the TSSOP variant matches the I-grade spec with enhanced thermal dissipation - making it the optimal drop-in upgrade for thermally constrained LTC3862IGN-1#PBF deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with the LTC3862IGN-1#PBF?
The LTC3862IGN-1#PBF itself does not impose a hard upper limit on output voltage - it is a controller, not a regulator. Output voltage is set by the external resistor divider on the FB pin and constrained by external components (MOSFETs, diodes, inductors, capacitors). In published typical applications, LTC3862IGN-1#PBF achieves stable 72V output from 24V input with >94% efficiency. Designers must select appropriately rated external components to support higher voltages.
Does the LTC3862IGN-1#PBF support SEPIC topology, and what modifications are required?
Yes, the LTC3862IGN-1#PBF supports SEPIC operation using the same pinout and control architecture as boost mode. No internal modification is needed. The key design change is replacing the boost diode with a coupling capacitor and adjusting the inductor configuration per the SEPIC schematic in the datasheet. Current sensing remains identical, and slope compensation settings apply directly.
How does the PHASEMODE pin affect synchronization when daisy-chaining multiple LTC3862IGN-1#PBF controllers?
The PHASEMODE pin on each LTC3862IGN-1#PBF determines the phase offset between its CH1 gate signal and the CLKOUT output, as well as between CH1 and CH2. When daisy-chaining, one LTC3862IGN-1#PBF acts as master (PHASEMODE = float), and slaves use PHASEMODE = 0V or 3.8V to achieve 180° or 120° offsets respectively - enabling precise 2-, 3-, 4-, 6-, or 12-phase interleaving without external timing ICs.
What is the purpose of the 3V8 pin on the LTC3862IGN-1#PBF, and can it power external circuitry?
The 3V8 pin on the LTC3862IGN-1#PBF is the output of an internal LDO powered from INTVCC, providing a regulated 3.8V supply for the IC's internal analog and digital circuitry. It is not intended to drive external loads - the datasheet explicitly states it should be bypassed with only a 1nF ceramic capacitor to SGND and must not be used as a general-purpose supply rail due to limited current capability and lack of external load regulation.
Can the LTC3862IGN-1#PBF operate with input voltage below 8.5V, and what happens if VIN drops below specification?
No - the LTC3862IGN-1#PBF has a specified minimum input voltage of 8.5V. If VIN falls below this level, the internal 10V INTVCC LDO cannot regulate, causing gate drive voltage to collapse and resulting in uncontrolled MOSFET switching or complete shutdown. The device includes no brown-out recovery circuitry below 8.5V, so system-level undervoltage protection must be implemented externally to prevent malfunction during input sags.
