Product details
Overview
LTC4380IDD-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, –40°C to 85°C industrial temperature range, and auto-retry fault behavior. Used in 12V/24V battery-powered systems requiring robust transient protection without Schottky diode losses.
For engineers reviewing the LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF datasheet, LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF pinout, LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF application, or LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include gate clamp voltage selectability (31.5V/50V), auto-retry vs latchoff behavior, MOSFET stress acceleration via TMR-based multiplier, reverse input protection to –60V, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive environments.
Technical Context
The LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF implements a multiplier-based fault timer where TMR pin current scales with both VDS (via DRN pin) and ID (via SNS–OUT differential), enabling dynamic MOSFET safe operating area (SOA) enforcement. Its 20µA regulated charge pump drives the GATE pin to VOUT + 11.5V during normal operation, while internal clamps limit GATE to 31.5V or 50V above GND depending on SEL state.
It supports reverse input protection to –60V, uses an accurate 1.05V ON-pin comparator for undervoltage detection and shutdown control, and delivers 6µA quiescent current in shutdown mode. The device operates across 4V–72V input range and integrates adjustable turn-on threshold, low retry duty cycle (<0.2% under heavy overvoltage), and open-drain FLT output signaling fault status.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Voltage Range | 4V to 72V input - enables direct use in 12V/24V/28V automotive and industrial rails without external regulators. |
| Quiescent Current | 8µA typical - allows integration into always-on battery systems (e.g., telematics, ECU standby) without significant drain. |
| Gate Clamp Options | 31.5V or 50V (SEL-selectable) - sets output clamp at ~27V (for 12V systems) or ~45V (for 24V/28V systems), matching common vehicle bus requirements. |
| Fault Behavior | Auto-retry (LTC4380-2 variant) - enters cool-down phase after fault, then automatically restarts; eliminates manual reset in remote deployments. |
| Reverse Input Protection | –60V - withstands reverse battery connection without damage, critical for automotive service environments. |
| Current Limit Threshold | 50mV (rising), 62mV (severe short, OUT < 1.5V) - provides precise, temperature-stable current limiting via external sense resistor. |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +85°C (I-grade) - qualified for under-hood and industrial control applications with extended thermal margins. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead (3mm × 3mm) Plastic DFN with exposed pad (GND). RoHS-compliant, lead-free finish, optimized for thermal dissipation in high-power transient suppression.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Device Ground Reference | Primary ground return; exposed pad must be connected to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| VCC | Positive Supply Input | Accepts 4V–72V input; tolerates –60V reverse bias; requires external Zener or RC filter for >80V transients. |
| OUT | Output Voltage Sense | Senses load-side voltage; internal clamp limits GATE–OUT to 17V; bypass with ≥22µF capacitor near pin. |
| SNS | Current Sense Input | Monitors voltage drop across external sense resistor (RSNS); regulates ΔVSNS to 50mV/62mV for current limiting. |
| DRN | MOSFET Drain–Source Sense | Tracks VDS of external N-MOSFET; generates current proportional to VDS for MOSFET stress calculation. |
| 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 | Turn-On / UV Detection / Shutdown | 1.05V threshold comparator; pulls low to shut down (6µA IQ); also detects input undervoltage conditions. |
| SEL | Gate Clamp Voltage Select | GND = 31.5V clamp; VCC/OUT = 50V clamp - configures output clamp level for 12V or 24V/28V system compatibility. |
| TMR | Fault Timer Integration Node | Capacitor-connected node; charges with MOSFET power-dissipation-proportional current; triggers FLT at 1.215V. |
| FLT | Open-Drain Fault Output | Pulls low during overvoltage/overcurrent faults; sinks up to 3mA; signals fault condition to host controller or LED indicator. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low 8µA operating current | Enables permanent connection to vehicle battery without compromising standby life in infotainment or ADAS modules. |
| Auto-retry fault recovery (LTC4380-2) | Eliminates need for external reset circuitry; cools MOSFET thermally before automatic restart, improving reliability in cyclic surge environments. |
| Reverse input protection to –60V | Withstands accidental reverse-battery connection during service, reducing field failure risk in automotive OEM and aftermarket designs. |
| Multiplier-based MOSFET stress timer | TMR current scales with VDS × ID, shortening fault timeout under high-power dissipation - keeps MOSFET within SOA during sustained transients. |
| Back-to-back MOSFET support | GATE pin drives two N-MOSFETs in series for bidirectional blocking - replaces lossy Schottky diodes in reverse-polarity protection circuits. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade I) | Validated for automotive use per stress test requirements - supports deployment in engine control, body electronics, and ADAS subsystems. |

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 10-lead MSOP package (θJA = 160°C/W vs DFN's 43°C/W); higher thermal resistance limits continuous power handling. | Preferred for prototyping or low-volume layouts where DFN rework is challenging; unsuitable for high-ambient or high-duty-cycle surge environments. | Select LTC4380IMS-2#TRPBF only when MSOP footprint is required; verify thermal margin with worst-case fault duration and ambient. |
| LTC4380IDD-1#TRPBF | Identical DFN package and specs, but latchoff (not auto-retry) fault behavior - requires ON pin pulse or power cycle to recover after fault. | Suitable for safety-critical systems where automatic restart is prohibited (e.g., brake control modules); increases system-level fault management complexity. | Choose LTC4380IDD-1#TRPBF only if explicit fault latching is mandated by functional safety requirements (e.g., ISO 26262 ASIL-B). |
Compared with LTC4380IMS-2#TRPBF, the LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF offers superior thermal performance and smaller footprint; compared with LTC4380IDD-1#TRPBF, it eliminates manual intervention after transient events - making it optimal for unattended, high-availability 12V/24V systems.

FAQ
What is the gate clamp voltage configuration for LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF?
The LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF supports two fixed gate clamp voltages: 31.5V (when SEL is tied to GND) and 50V (when SEL is tied to VCC or OUT). This directly determines the output voltage clamp level - approximately 27V for 12V systems or ~45V for 24V/28V systems - and is confirmed in the device's pin function description and Table 1 of the datasheet.
Does LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF support reverse battery protection?
Yes, LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF supports reverse input protection to –60V on the VCC pin, as specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings and verified in the PIN FUNCTIONS section. This allows safe operation during accidental reverse-battery connection in automotive service scenarios without external diodes or protection circuitry.
How does the fault timer in LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF respond to MOSFET stress?
The LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF uses a multiplier architecture where TMR pin current scales with both VDS (measured at DRN) and ID (measured via SNS–OUT), resulting in faster fault timeout under high-power MOSFET stress. This ensures the external MOSFET remains within its safe operating area during sustained overvoltage or overload events.
What is the difference between LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF and LTC4380IDD-1#TRPBF?
LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF implements auto-retry fault behavior - after a fault, it enters a cool-down period and automatically restarts. LTC4380IDD-1#TRPBF latches off and requires either an ON pin pulse (>100µs low) or power cycle to recover. Both share identical pinout, package, and electrical specs except for this behavioral distinction.
Can LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF drive back-to-back N-channel MOSFETs?
Yes, LTC4380IDD-2#TRPBF's GATE pin can drive back-to-back N-MOSFETs for reverse polarity protection, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES and PIN FUNCTIONS sections. This eliminates forward voltage drop and heat generation associated with Schottky diodes, improving efficiency in battery-powered applications.
