Product details
Overview
LTC7801EFE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a high-voltage synchronous step-down DC/DC controller driving all-N-channel MOSFETs, supporting input voltages up to 140V and output voltages from 0.8V to 60V. It features 40μA no-load quiescent current, phase-lockable switching frequency up to 850kHz, and integrated charge pump enabling 100% duty cycle operation - ideal for high-voltage battery-powered telecom and industrial power systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC7801EFE#TRPBF pinout, LTC7801EFE#TRPBF application, or LTC7801EFE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its wide 4V–140V input range, programmable gate drive (5V–10V), OPTI-LOOP® compensation, precision 0.8V reference, and dual-package availability in 24-lead TSSOP and QFN.
Technical Context
The LTC7801EFE#TRPBF implements a constant-frequency current-mode control architecture with an internal transconductance error amplifier (gm = 2 mmho) and slope-compensated PWM. Its dual-loop sensing uses differential SENSE+/SENSE– inputs for accurate current limiting and supports three light-load operating modes: forced continuous, pulse-skipping, and Burst Mode® with adjustable clamp.
It integrates multiple power rails: a 5V INTVCC LDO, a programmable DRVCC LDO (5V–10V via DRVSET), and switchover-capable EXTVCC LDO. Gate drivers feature matched rise/fall times (25ns/15ns), <100ns dead-time control, and bootstrap-free top-side drive via integrated charge pump and BOOST-SW switch.

Package: 24-lead plastic TSSOP (FE package), 4mm × 5mm footprint, exposed pad (Pin 25) soldered to PCB ground for thermal and electrical performance. θJA = 33°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SENSE– (Pin 1) | Differential current sense negative input | References current-sense amplifier; supplies comparator bias when > INTVCC − 0.5V; must avoid voltage sources. |
| SS (Pin 2) | Soft-start and regulator shutdown control | Internal 10μA pull-up sets ramp time; 5μA/1μA pull-down enables REGSD shutdown; capacitor-to-ground defines startup profile. |
| VFB (Pin 3) | Feedback input | Compares output voltage (via external divider) to 0.8V reference; ±10% PGOOD trip threshold referenced here. |
| ITH (Pin 4) | Error amplifier output / compensation node | Controls peak inductor current; voltage directly sets current comparator threshold; used for OPTI-LOOP® loop compensation. |
| MODE (Pin 5) | Light-load operation mode select | Selects Burst Mode® (ground), pulse-skipping (>1.4V), or forced continuous (INTVCC); adjusts burst clamp level 10%–60% of VSENSE(MAX). |
| GND (Pin 6, Exposed Pad 25) | Power and signal ground reference | All GND pins and exposed pad must be connected to low-impedance PCB ground plane for rated thermal performance and noise immunity. |
| CPUMP_EN (Pin 7) | Charge pump enable for high-side driver | INTVCC enables full 100% duty cycle; GND limits to 99%; floating state is prohibited. |
| PLLIN (Pin 8) | External synchronization input | Accepts 75kHz–850kHz clock; forces TG rising edge alignment; preserves MODE-selected light-load behavior during sync. |
| PGOOD (Pin 9) | Open-drain power-good indicator | Pulled low when VFB deviates >±10% from setpoint; requires external pull-up; 40μs fault reporting delay. |

| DRVSET (Pin 11) | DRVCC regulation program pin | Resistor-to-GND (50k–100k) programs DRVCC from 5V–10V; GND = 6.0V, INTVCC = 10.0V; enables optimal FET gate drive. |
| DRVUV (Pin 12) | DRVCC UVLO threshold select | GND selects lower UVLO (4.0V/3.6V), INTVCC selects higher (7.5V/6.4V); also controls EXTVCC switchover thresholds. |
| SENSE+ (Pin 22) | Differential current sense positive input | Paired with SENSE–; offset + ITH voltage determines current limit threshold; RSENSE sets trip point (66–84mV typical). |
| OVLO (Pin 21) | Input overvoltage lockout | Trips at 1.2V rising threshold; triggers soft-start reset; maintains DRVCC/INTVCC regulation during fault; tie to GND if unused. |
| RUN (Pin 19) | Enable/disable control | 1.12V ON threshold, 0.7V deep shutdown (10μA IQ); hysteresis = 80mV; tie to VIN for always-on operation. |
| TG (Pin 11) | Top-gate driver output | Floating high-side driver; swing = DRVCC superimposed on SW node; matched 2.2Ω pull-up / 1.0Ω pull-down resistance. |
| BG (Pin 14) | Bottom-gate driver output | Synchronous N-MOSFET driver; swing = 0V to DRVCC; matched 2.0Ω pull-up / 1.0Ω pull-down resistance. |
| SW (Pin 12) | Switch node connection | Connects to inductor and BOOST capacitor; handles high dV/dt; absolute max = –5V to 150V. |
| BOOST (Pin 13) | Bootstrap supply for top gate driver | Capacitor between BOOST and SW provides floating rail; voltage swing = DRVCC to (VIN + DRVCC); max 150V rating. |
| DRVCC (Pin 15) | Gate driver supply output | Powered by internal VIN LDO, external NDRV NMOS LDO, or EXTVCC LDO; requires ≥4.7µF ceramic decoupling. |
| NDRV (Pin 16) | External NMOS pass device driver | Drives gate of external NFET for low-dropout DRVCC regulation; tie to DRVCC to disable; capacitive load only. |
| VIN (Pin 17) | Main input supply | 4V–140V input; bypass with low-ESR capacitor near IC; powers INTVCC LDO and internal logic. |
| EXTVCC (Pin 18) | External gate driver supply input | 0V–14V input; switchover occurs at 4.7V/7.7V (DRVUV-selectable); bypass with ≥1µF ceramic; tie to GND if unused. |
| INTVCC (Pin 20) | Internal 5V LDO output | Supplies analog/digital circuitry; ±3% tolerance; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass close to pin; not for external loading. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF?
The LTC7801EFE#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 150V on the VIN pin, with a recommended operating range of 4V to 140V. This enables direct regulation from common high-voltage sources including 48V telecom, 96V battery stacks, and PoE++ infrastructure without pre-regulation stages. Operation beyond 140V risks exceeding safe operating area limits and is not guaranteed.
Does the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF support 100% duty cycle operation, and how is it enabled?
Yes, the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF supports true 100% duty cycle operation via its integrated charge pump. To enable it, tie the CPUMP_EN pin (Pin 7) to INTVCC. This activates the internal charge pump that sustains the BOOST rail during dropout conditions, allowing the top MOSFET to remain fully on. Disabling CPUMP_EN (tying to GND) limits duty cycle to 99%.
How does the OPTI-LOOP® compensation feature benefit system design with the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF?
OPTI-LOOP® compensation in the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF allows designers to optimize transient response across a wide range of output capacitor values (10µF–1000µF) and ESR (0.5mΩ–100mΩ) without modifying external compensation components. This simplifies design reuse, accelerates qualification, and improves reliability in applications where capacitor aging or temperature drift affects stability.
Can the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF drive both logic-level and standard-threshold MOSFETs?
Yes, the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF supports both logic-level and standard-threshold N-channel MOSFETs through its OPTI-DRIVE™ feature. The DRVSET pin (Pin 11) allows programming of the DRVCC gate drive voltage from 5V to 10V using a resistor divider - 5V for logic-level devices, 10V for standard-threshold FETs - maximizing efficiency and minimizing conduction losses across diverse FET selections.
What are the thermal considerations for the LTC7801EFE#TRPBF in TSSOP package?
The LTC7801EFE#TRPBF in 24-lead TSSOP (FE package) has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 33°C/W when the exposed pad (Pin 25) is properly soldered to a minimum 1-inch² copper pour on the PCB. For continuous 125°C operation, power dissipation must be limited to ≤2.1W (TJ = TA + PD × θJA). Thermal derating is required above 125°C ambient to maintain reliability.
