Product details
Overview
LTC7801EUFD#PBF from Analog Devices is a high-voltage, low-quiescent-current 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, with 40μA no-load IQ, 100% duty cycle capability, and phase-lockable switching frequency up to 850kHz - deployed in telecom power supplies, industrial battery systems, and automotive high-vin converters.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7801EUFD#PBF datasheet, LTC7801EUFD#PBF pinout, LTC7801EUFD#PBF application, or LTC7801EUFD#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include gate drive voltage programmability (5V–10V), OPTI-LOOP® compensation for wide output capacitor/ESR tolerance, precision 0.8V reference, PGOOD monitoring, and dual LDO options (VIN/NDRV/EXTVCC) for flexible DRVCC sourcing.
Technical Context
The LTC7801EUFD#PBF implements a constant-frequency current-mode control architecture with integrated top/bottom N-channel gate drivers, programmable UVLO thresholds via DRVUV, and selectable light-load operation modes (Burst Mode®, pulse-skipping, or forced continuous). Its error amplifier features OPTI-LOOP® compensation, enabling stable loop response across diverse output capacitance and ESR values without external compensation redesign.
It integrates multiple independent LDO paths for DRVCC: internal VIN-based, external NMOS-driven NDRV LDO, and EXTVCC-sourced LDO with switchover thresholds (4.7V or 7.7V) set by DRVUV. The charge pump enables 100% duty cycle operation when CPUMP_EN is high, while the integrated BOOST-to-DRVCC switch eliminates need for an external bootstrap diode.
Key Specifications

Package: 24-lead (4mm × 5mm) plastic QFN with exposed thermal pad (Pin 25 = GND); rated θJA = 43°C/W; operating junction temperature range –40°C to +125°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 17) | Main input supply connection | Accepts 4V–140V input; powers INTVCC LDO and internal logic; requires local ceramic bypass. |
| TG (Pin 11) | Top gate driver output | Floating high-side driver output referenced to SW node; swing = DRVCC superimposed on SW voltage. |
| SW (Pin 12) | Switch node | Connection point between external inductor and both MOSFETs; critical for layout and noise control. |
| BG (Pin 14) | Bottom gate driver output | Low-side driver output referenced to GND; swing = 0V to DRVCC; drives synchronous rectifier. |
| BOOST (Pin 13) | Bootstrap supply node | Connected to SW via capacitor; supplies floating gate drive for TG; voltage = SW + DRVCC. |
| DRVCC (Pin 15) | Gate driver supply rail | Output of internal/external LDOs; powers TG/BG drivers; must be decoupled with ≥4.7µF low-ESR ceramic. |
| VFB (Pin 1) | Feedback input | Monitors regulated output via external resistor divider; compares to 0.8V reference for regulation. |
| ITH (Pin 2) | Error amplifier output | Controls peak inductor current; sets current comparator threshold; used for loop compensation. |
| MODE (Pin 3) | Light-load operation mode select | Selects Burst Mode®, pulse-skipping, or forced continuous; also adjusts burst clamp level (10–60%). |
| GND (Pins 4, 25) | Ground reference | All ground pins must be tied together; exposed pad (Pin 25) must be soldered to PCB ground for thermal/electrical performance. |
| CPUMP_EN (Pin 5) | Charge pump enable | High = enables charge pump for 100% duty cycle; low = enables boost refresh for 99% duty cycle. |
| PLLIN (Pin 6) | External sync input | Accepts 75–850kHz clock; synchronizes rising edge of TG to external clock's rising edge. |
| PGOOD (Pin 7) | Power good indicator | Open-drain output pulled low when VFB deviates >±10% from setpoint; requires external pull-up. |
| FREQ (Pin 8) | Frequency programming | Resistor-to-GND sets frequency (50–900kHz); tied to GND/INTVCC for fixed 350/535kHz operation. |
| DRVSET (Pin 9) | DRVCC regulation program | Sets DRVCC voltage (5–10V) via resistor divider; internal 20µA pull-up defines reference. |
| DRVUV (Pin 10) | DRVCC UVLO threshold select | Chooses lower (4.0–4.2V) or higher (7.5–7.8V) UVLO thresholds and EXTVCC switchover points. |
| NDRV (Pin 16) | External NMOS pass device driver | Drives gate of external NFET for NDRV LDO; enables low-dropout DRVCC regulation above VIN. |
| EXTVCC (Pin 18) | External DRVCC supply input | Input to internal LDO; supplies DRVCC when >4.7V/7.7V (per DRVUV); max 14V; tie to GND if unused. |
| RUN (Pin 19) | Enable/shutdown control | ≥1.2V = ON; ≤1.1V = shutdown; ≤0.7V = ultra-low-IQ shutdown (10μA); not floatable. |
| INTVCC (Pin 20) | Internal 5V LDO output | Powers analog/digital circuitry; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass close to IC; max load 2mA. |
| OVLO (Pin 21) | Input overvoltage lockout | Disables switching when >1.2V; maintains INTVCC/DRVCC regulation; soft-start resets on fault clearance. |
| SENSE+ (Pin 22) | Current sense positive input | + input of differential current comparator; used with SENSE− and RSENSE to set current limit. |
| SENSE− (Pin 23) | Current sense negative input | − input of differential current comparator; supplies comparator bias when > INTVCC − 0.5V. |
| SS (Pin 24) | Soft-start and shutdown control | Regulates VFB to min(0.8V, VSS); internal 10µA pull-up; capacitor sets ramp time; supports REGSD. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC7804IUFD#PBF | Higher max input (40V → 150V), same 24-pin QFN, adds spread-spectrum modulation and improved current sensing accuracy (±0.5% vs ±1.2%). | Preferred where EMI compliance is critical (e.g., medical, aerospace); supports tighter current limit tolerance in precision motor control. | Choose LTC7804 for new designs requiring lower EMI or enhanced current measurement fidelity; pin-compatible but requires updated layout for SS/ITH compensation. |
| MP24894GQ-U | Lower max input (60V), fixed 5V DRVCC, no PLLIN or EXTVCC support, smaller 16-pin QFN, 60μA IQ (vs 40μA), no OPTI-LOOP®. | Suitable for cost-sensitive, lower-vin industrial applications where 100% duty cycle and multi-LDO flexibility are unnecessary. | Consider MP24894GQ-U only for <60V systems with simpler power tree; not drop-in due to pin count, feature set, and package mismatch. |
Compared with LTC7804IUFD#PBF, the LTC7801EUFD#PBF offers superior light-load efficiency and broader DRVCC programmability but lacks spread-spectrum and tighter current sense accuracy; versus MP24894GQ-U, it delivers higher voltage resilience, lower IQ, and advanced control features at higher BOM cost and design complexity.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC7801EUFD#PBF?
The LTC7801EUFD#PBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 150V on the VIN pin, with a recommended operating range of 4V to 140V. This high-voltage tolerance makes it suitable for telecom, industrial, and automotive applications where input transients or battery stack voltages exceed standard 60V controllers. Exceeding 150V may cause permanent damage.
How does the OPTI-LOOP® compensation work in the LTC7801EUFD#PBF?
OPTI-LOOP® compensation in the LTC7801EUFD#PBF dynamically adapts the error amplifier's transconductance and pole/zero placement based on output capacitor ESR and capacitance, enabling stable loop response across wide variations - e.g., from 10µF ceramic to 1000µF electrolytic outputs - without manual compensation redesign. It operates through the ITH pin and internal gm amplifier.
Can the LTC7801EUFD#PBF operate with 100% duty cycle, and how is it enabled?
Yes, the LTC7801EUFD#PBF supports true 100% duty cycle operation when CPUMP_EN is driven high (to INTVCC), activating the internal charge pump to sustain BOOST voltage during dropout. When CPUMP_EN is low, it defaults to ~99% duty cycle using boot-refresh. This capability is essential for maintaining regulation during deep input voltage sags.
What are the supported light-load operation modes for the LTC7801EUFD#PBF?
The LTC7801EUFD#PBF supports three configurable light-load modes via the MODE pin: Burst Mode® (highest efficiency, lowest IQ), pulse-skipping (reduced ripple vs Burst), and forced continuous conduction (lowest noise, best EMI profile). Each mode is selected by applying specific voltages (GND, 0.5–1.0V, INTVCC, or >1.4V) to MODE - no external components required.
Does the LTC7801EUFD#PBF require an external bootstrap diode?
No, the LTC7801EUFD#PBF integrates a BOOST-to-DRVCC switch that replaces the traditional external bootstrap diode. This reduces component count, improves reliability, and simplifies PCB layout. The internal switch works in conjunction with the external BOOST capacitor and charge pump (when enabled) to maintain gate drive during high-duty-cycle operation.
