Product details
Overview
LTC7003EMSE#PBF from Analog Devices is a high-side N-channel MOSFET gate driver IC designed for protected static and switching applications up to 60V input. It integrates an internal charge pump for 100% duty cycle operation, delivers 2.2Ω pull-up / 1Ω pull-down drive strength, achieves 35ns propagation delay, and provides adjustable overcurrent protection with current monitor output. It serves as a fast, fault-protected high-side switch controller in industrial power distribution systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7003EMSE#PBF datasheet, LTC7003EMSE#PBF pinout, LTC7003EMSE#PBF application, or LTC7003EMSE#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 60V VIN rating, MSOP-16 thermal performance (θJA = 45°C/W), adjustable ΔVTH current trip (20–75mV), open-drain FAULT flag behavior, and compatibility with external high-side NMOS switches requiring fast turn-on/turn-off under overcurrent conditions.
Technical Context
The LTC7003EMSE#PBF implements a level-shifted gate driver architecture with integrated charge pump to sustain BST-TS voltage at 12V across TS voltages up to 60V, enabling continuous conduction of high-side NMOS. Its current sense comparator monitors ΔVSNS across an external shunt with programmable threshold via ISET pin (20–75mV), triggering fault shutdown after timer capacitor–defined delay.
Protection logic includes independent undervoltage lockouts on RUN (1.21V enable), VCCUV (adjustable 3.5–10.5V), OVLO (1.21V trip), and BST-TS (3.1V UVLO), plus thermal shutdown at ~180°C. The IMON pin provides ground-referenced 20× scaled current sense voltage (0–1.5V range) while TGUP/TGDN drive external MOSFET gates with CMOS-compatible timing and low-impedance pull-up/pull-down paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 3.5V to 60V - supports wide-input industrial and automotive supply rails without external regulation. |
| Gate Drive Strength | 2.2Ω pull-up / 1Ω pull-down - enables fast switching of large gate capacitances (e.g., 1nF load in <35ns). |
| Propagation Delay | 35ns (typ.) - ensures precise timing control in high-frequency or safety-critical turn-on/turn-off sequences. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 20mV to 75mV (adjustable via ISET) - allows optimization of sense resistor value and conduction loss trade-off. |
| Charge Pump Output | Regulated 12V BST-TS - sustains 100% duty cycle operation for high-side NMOS without external bootstrap diode/capacitor complexity. |
| Fault Response | Open-drain FAULT pin + TIMER capacitor–programmed retry - provides system-level fault signaling and automatic recovery after cooldown. |
| Operating Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C (E-grade) - qualified for extended industrial environments with validated thermal derating. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC7003EMSE#PBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 16-lead plastic MSOP package (MSE) with exposed pad (Pin 17) soldered to PCB for optimal thermal dissipation (θJC = 10°C/W). Package dimensions comply with JEDEC MO-187AA.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RUN (1) | Enable/Shutdown Control | CMOS-compatible input; ≥1.21V enables operation, <0.7V reduces quiescent current to ~1µA. |
| VIN (2) | Main Supply Input | Primary power source (3.5–60V); requires ≥0.1µF bypass to GND for stability. |
| VCC (3) | Internal LDO Output | 10V regulated supply for drivers/logic; can be overdriven externally but must not exceed VIN. |
| VCCUV (4) | VCC Undervoltage Lockout Set | Resistor-to-GND sets VCC UVLO threshold (3.5–10.5V ×7 scaling) to prevent weak gate drive. |
| FAULT (5) | Open-Drain Fault Flag | Pulls low when overcurrent detected; remains low until fault cleared and cooldown complete. |
| TIMER (6) | Fault Timing Capacitor Node | External CT to GND programs fault warning, shutdown, and auto-retry intervals. |
| INP (7) | CMOS Input Signal | Ground-referenced digital control; internal 1MΩ pull-down holds TGDN low during startup. |
| OVLO (8) | Input Overvoltage Lockout | Resistor divider sets VIN overvoltage trip (1.21V threshold); triggers immediate fault if exceeded. |
| ISET (9) | Current Trip Threshold Set | Resistor-to-GND programs ΔVTH (20–75mV); open = 30mV default for low-loss sensing. |
| IMON (10) | Current Monitor Output | Ground-referenced 20× scaled SNS+–SNS– voltage (0–1.5V range); 100kΩ output impedance. |
| TGDN (11) | High-Side Gate Pull-Down | Low-impedance N-MOS path to TS; directly connects to MOSFET gate for fastest turn-off. |
| TGUP (12) | High-Side Gate Pull-Up | Level-shifted path to BST; ties to TGDN for max speed or adds series R for controlled slew rate. |
| TS (13) | Top-Side Source Reference | High-side return node; connects to MOSFET source; may be tied to GND in low-side configurations. |
| BST (14) | Bootstrap Supply | Charge pump output node; requires ≥0.1µF capacitor to TS for 12V gate drive swing. |
| SNS– (15) | Current Sense Negative Input | Kelvin connection point for shunt resistor; 100Ω series resistor required for noise immunity. |
| SNS+ (16) | Current Sense Positive Input | Kelvin connection point for shunt resistor; placed at MOSFET drain side for accurate ΔVSNS. |
| GND (17) | Power Ground / Thermal Pad | Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB plane for rated electrical performance and thermal management. |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage on the TS pin of the LTC7003EMSE#PBF?
The TS pin of the LTC7003EMSE#PBF supports voltages from –6V to +65V, enabling direct connection to high-side MOSFET sources operating up to 60V. This rating ensures safe operation in 48V and 60V industrial and automotive systems where TS may float significantly above ground potential. Exceeding 65V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
How does the LTC7003EMSE#PBF achieve 100% duty cycle operation without an external bootstrap diode?
The LTC7003EMSE#PBF achieves 100% duty cycle using an internal charge pump that regulates the BST-TS voltage to 12V, independent of TS voltage (up to 60V). Unlike traditional bootstrap circuits requiring diode recharge during low-side conduction, this charge pump continuously replenishes BST energy, allowing indefinite high-side NMOS conduction without external diodes or timing constraints.
Can the LTC7003EMSE#PBF drive a MOSFET with gate charge exceeding 100nC?
Yes, the LTC7003EMSE#PBF can drive MOSFETs with gate charge exceeding 100nC due to its 2.2Ω pull-up and 1Ω pull-down output impedances, which deliver high peak current into large capacitive loads. Performance data shows 35ns propagation delay with 1nF load; for 100nC devices, rise/fall times scale linearly with Qg, remaining practical for most industrial switching frequencies below 500kHz.
What is the function of the IMON pin on the LTC7003EMSE#PBF and how is it calibrated?
The IMON pin on the LTC7003EMSE#PBF provides a ground-referenced voltage equal to 20× the voltage across the external sense resistor (SNS+–SNS–), ranging from 0V to 1.5V. It is calibrated to ±5% accuracy over temperature and features 100kΩ output impedance. When INP is low, IMON is pulled to ground via internal 100kΩ resistor, ensuring defined idle state.
Does the LTC7003EMSE#PBF require external components for basic overcurrent protection functionality?
Yes, the LTC7003EMSE#PBF requires three external components for functional overcurrent protection: a sense resistor between SNS+ and SNS–, a timing capacitor (CT) from TIMER to GND, and optionally a resistor from ISET to GND to set the trip threshold. These components define the current limit, fault timing, and retry behavior-no additional ICs or complex circuitry are needed for full protection implementation.
