Product details
Overview
LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a low-quiescent-current surge stopper IC that controls an external N-channel MOSFET to protect downstream loads from automotive load dump, input overvoltage (up to 250Vpk), and overcurrent events. It features fixed 31.5V/50V gate clamp selection via SEL pin, 8µA operating current, and auto-retry fault behavior. Used in 12V/24V automotive power rails where sustained surge protection and battery-backed operation are required.
For engineers reviewing the LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF datasheet, LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF pinout, LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF application, or LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include gate clamp voltage configuration (SEL = GND → 31.5V), auto-retry vs latch-off behavior, MOSFET stress acceleration via TMR-based multiplier, reverse input protection to –60V, and DFN (3mm × 3mm) package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF implements a VDS–ID multiplier architecture on the TMR pin to dynamically scale fault timer current based on MOSFET power dissipation-enabling shorter turn-off times under severe stress while tolerating benign transients. Its internal 20µA charge pump regulates GATE to VOUT + 11.5V, with dual clamping: 31.5V/50V to GND (SEL-selectable) and 13.5V above VCC.
It integrates undervoltage detection on the ON pin (1.05V threshold, 45mV hysteresis), open-drain FLT output for fault signaling, and reverse-input protection down to –60V. The device operates across 4V–72V input range, supports back-to-back MOSFET configurations for bidirectional blocking, and delivers 8µA quiescent current in active mode and 6µA in shutdown.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Voltage Range | 4V to 72V input - supports 12V/24V/28V automotive systems and industrial supplies without external regulators. |
| Quiescent Current | 8µA typical - enables always-on battery-powered applications with multi-year standby life. |
| Gate Clamp Voltage | 31.5V (SEL = GND) or 50V (SEL = VCC) - sets output clamp at ~27V or ~45V respectively, matching 12V/24V system safety margins. |
| Fault Behavior | Auto-retry (LTC4380-2 variant) - enters cool-down phase after fault, then automatically restarts without manual reset. |
| Current Limit Threshold | 50mV (OUT > 3V) rising to 62mV (OUT < 1.5V) - provides graded overcurrent response to avoid nuisance tripping during inrush. |
| Reverse Input Protection | –60V - withstands reverse battery connection without damage or latch-up. |
| Package | 10-lead DFN (3mm × 3mm) - thermally enhanced surface-mount footprint with exposed pad for efficient heat dissipation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead (3mm × 3mm) Plastic DFN with exposed pad (Pin 11 = GND, optional PCB connection).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Device ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuits; exposed pad must be connected to system GND for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| VCC | Main supply input | Accepts 4V–72V input; survives –60V reverse bias; requires RC filter or Zener clamp for >80V transients. |
| OUT | Output voltage sense | Senses post-MOSFET output; bypassed with ≥22µF capacitor; internal clamp limits GATE–OUT to 17V. |
| SNS | Current sense input | Connects to high-side of sense resistor; regulates ΔVSNS to 50mV/62mV; limited to ±5V differential. |
| DRN | MOSFET drain-source sense | Tracks OUT; current through RDRN ∝ VDS; used with SNS to compute MOSFET power for adaptive timing. |
| GATE | N-MOSFET gate driver | Drives external MOSFET gate; regulated to VOUT + 11.5V; clamped to 31.5V/50V (SEL-dependent) or VCC + 13.5V. |
| ON | Enable/UVLO/shutdown control | 1.05V threshold; internal 1MΩ pull-up; pulls low to enter 6µA shutdown; tolerant to –60V to +80V. |
| SEL | Gate clamp voltage select | GND = 31.5V clamp; VCC/OUT = 50V clamp - determines output overvoltage limit for 12V vs 24V systems. |
| FLT | Fault status output | Open-drain logic-low signal during fault; sinks up to 3mA; indicates MOSFET is off due to OV/OC condition. |
| TMR | Fault timer integration node | Capacitor-connected pin; current scales with MOSFET stress; 1.215V threshold triggers shutdown and cool-down. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-retry fault recovery | Enables autonomous system recovery after overvoltage/overcurrent events without host intervention or power cycle. |
| Adaptive MOSFET stress timing | TMR current scales with VDS × ID product, shortening fault timeout under high-power faults to preserve MOSFET SOA. |
| Back-to-back MOSFET support | GATE drive capability allows reverse-input protection without Schottky diode voltage drop or thermal loss. |
| Selectable 31.5V/50V gate clamp | Hardware-configurable clamp matches 12V (27V output limit) or 24V/28V (45V output limit) automotive architectures. |
| –60V reverse input tolerance | Eliminates need for external reverse-polarity protection circuitry in battery-connected applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar surge protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC4380IMS-2#TRPBF | Same functionality and pinout, but in MSOP-10 package (5.0mm × 4.4mm); higher θJA (160°C/W) vs DFN's 43°C/W. | Better suited for prototyping or low-volume designs where hand-soldering or socketing is preferred over DFN reflow. | Select when thermal constraints allow larger footprint or when legacy MSOP layout reuse is prioritized over size/power density. |
| LTC4380CDD-1#TRPBF | Identical DFN package and specs, but latches off after fault instead of auto-retrying; requires ON pin pulse or power cycle to recover. | Preferred in safety-critical systems where unattended restart after fault is prohibited (e.g., brake control modules). | Choose only if deterministic manual/firmware-controlled reset is mandated by system safety architecture. |

FAQ
What is the gate clamp voltage configuration for LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF?
The LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF supports two fixed gate clamp voltages: 31.5V when the SEL pin is tied to GND (for 12V systems), and 50V when SEL is tied to VCC or OUT (for 24V/28V systems). This directly determines the output overvoltage limit-approximately 27V or 45V respectively-based on the external MOSFET's threshold voltage. The LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF does not support adjustable clamping; that function is reserved for LTC4380-3/-4 variants.
How does LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF differ from LTC4380CDD-1#TRPBF?
The LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF implements auto-retry fault behavior: after overvoltage or overcurrent shutdown, it enters a cool-down period and automatically restarts once the TMR capacitor discharges to 100mV. In contrast, the LTC4380CDD-1#TRPBF latches off permanently until the ON pin is pulsed low for ≥100µs or power is cycled. Both share identical pinout, package, and electrical specs except for this fault recovery mode.
What is the maximum reverse input voltage the LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF can withstand?
The LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF is rated for –60V reverse input voltage on the VCC pin, verified per Absolute Maximum Ratings. This allows direct connection to automotive batteries without external reverse-polarity protection diodes or MOSFETs. Operation remains functional down to –60V with no latch-up or permanent damage, provided ON and SEL pins are also biased within their –60V to +80V tolerance range.
Can LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF drive back-to-back N-channel MOSFETs for reverse polarity protection?
Yes, the LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF's GATE driver supports back-to-back N-MOSFET configurations. By driving both gates referenced to their respective sources, it enables true bidirectional blocking-eliminating the 0.3V–0.5V forward drop and thermal loss of Schottky diodes. This configuration is explicitly validated in the datasheet and requires no additional components beyond the dual MOSFETs and sense resistors.
What is the recommended TMR capacitor value for standard automotive load dump protection with LTC4380CDD-2#TRPBF?
A 8.2µF X7R ceramic capacitor rated for ≥10V is recommended for CTMR in 12V automotive load dump applications (e.g., Figure 1 in datasheet), delivering ~100ms fault timeout and corresponding cool-down/restart timing. This value balances ride-through of ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a transients with safe MOSFET SOA enforcement. Larger values extend timeout; smaller values increase sensitivity but risk nuisance tripping during fast transients.
