Product details
Overview
LTC7804HMSE#PBF from Analog Devices is a high-performance synchronous boost DC/DC controller driving all-N-channel MOSFET stages, featuring 4.5V–40V input range, 14μA no-load quiescent current, spread spectrum EMI reduction, and 100kHz–3MHz programmable switching frequency - used in automotive power supplies requiring AEC-Q100-compliant high-efficiency voltage boosting.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7804HMSE#PBF datasheet, LTC7804HMSE#PBF pinout, LTC7804HMSE#PBF application, or LTC7804HMSE#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include low-IQ operation at 1V post-startup, Pass-Thru™ 100% duty cycle capability, RSENSE/DCR current sensing flexibility, and thermally enhanced MSOP-16 package rated to 150°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The LTC7804HMSE#PBF implements a constant-frequency peak-current-mode control architecture with OPTI-LOOP compensation, enabling stable transient response across wide output capacitance and ESR variations. Its dual-mode gate drivers support synchronous rectification with 3Ω pull-up/pull-down resistance and <15ns transition delays.
It integrates phase-lockable oscillator with spread spectrum dithering (0–20% frequency deviation), selectable light-load modes (Burst Mode®, pulse-skipping, forced continuous), and dual power paths via INTVCC/EXTVCC LDOs - allowing efficient biasing from either VBIAS or external regulated supply ≥4.7V.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 40V operating; supports down to 1V after startup when biased from output - enables cold-crank automotive operation. |
| No-Load Quiescent Current | 14μA typical - extends battery runtime in always-on systems like telematics or ADAS sensors. |
| Switching Frequency Range | 100kHz to 3MHz, programmable via resistor or PLL-synchronized - allows EMI optimization and compact magnetics design. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 1.200V ±12mV - sets precise output regulation with standard resistor dividers for outputs up to 40V. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 50mV typical - supports accurate current limiting with low-value sense resistors or DCR sensing. |
| Operating Junction Temperature | −40°C to +150°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade H for under-hood automotive applications. |
| Shutdown Current | 1.2μA - minimizes leakage during system sleep states. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead plastic MSOP with exposed thermal pad (Pin 17 = GND), θJA = 40°C/W, rated for 150°C max junction temperature.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SS (Pin 1) | Soft-Start Input | Internal 12.5μA pull-up charges external capacitor to ramp VFB reference linearly - controls output voltage slew rate during startup. |
| SENSE− (Pin 2) | Negative Current Sense Input | Differential input to current comparator; referenced to SENSE+ to set overcurrent trip point with ITH voltage. |
| SENSE+ (Pin 3) | Positive Current Sense Input | Accepts common-mode voltage up to 40V; supplies current to comparator when >INTVCC - enables high-side sensing. |
| VFB (Pin 4) | Feedback Input | Compares output divider voltage against 1.200V reference - primary regulation node for output voltage setting. |
| ITH (Pin 5) | Error Amplifier Output | Controls peak inductor current via current comparator threshold - compensation components connect here to GND. |
| RUN (Pin 6) | Enable/Shutdown Control | Below 1.2V disables switching; below 0.7V shuts down internal LDOs - enables UVLO or microcontroller-controlled sequencing. |
| FREQ (Pin 7) | Oscillator Programming | Resistor-to-GND sets frequency from 100kHz–3MHz; tied to INTVCC for 2.25MHz fixed operation. |
| PLLIN/SPREAD (Pin 8) | Synchronization & Spread Spectrum | External clock input for phase-locking; tied to INTVCC for spread spectrum noise reduction; tied to GND to disable dithering. |
| MODE (Pin 9) | Light-Load Operation Mode | GND = Burst Mode®; INTVCC = forced continuous; 100kΩ to INTVCC = pulse-skipping - selects efficiency vs. ripple trade-off. |
| INTVCC (Pin 10) | Internal 5.15V LDO Output | Powers gate drivers and analog circuitry; requires ≥4.7μF ceramic decoupling - critical for stability and drive strength. |
| EXTVCC (Pin 11) | External Bias Input | Enables bypass of VBIAS LDO when ≥4.7V applied - improves efficiency by using downstream regulator output as bias source. |
| VBIAS (Pin 12) | Main Bias Supply | Primary power input for internal LDO; typically connected to VIN or VOUT - must be bypassed with local ceramic capacitor. |
| BG (Pin 13) | Bottom Gate Driver | Drives N-channel MOSFET source to GND; swing from 0V to INTVCC - requires low-inductance layout for fast switching. |
| BOOST (Pin 14) | Bootstrap Supply | Charges floating driver for top MOSFET via external capacitor between BOOST and SW - enables high-side N-FET drive. |
| TG (Pin 15) | Top Gate Driver | Floating output referenced to SW node; swing = INTVCC superimposed on SW voltage - drives gate of high-side N-MOSFET. |
| SW (Pin 16) | Switch Node | Connection to inductor and MOSFET drains; high dv/dt node - demands tight layout and minimized parasitic inductance. |
| GND (Pin 17) | Power & Signal Ground | Exposed thermal pad; connects to bottom MOSFET source, CIN/COUT negatives, and all small-signal grounds - must be soldered for thermal performance. |

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the LTC7804HMSE#PBF?
The LTC7804HMSE#PBF is rated for a maximum junction temperature of +150°C and is qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade H. This specification is validated through high-temperature life testing and thermal characterization, ensuring reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and other high-ambient industrial settings where thermal management is critical. The MSOP-16 package includes an exposed thermal pad (Pin 17) that must be soldered to PCB copper for effective heat transfer.
Does the LTC7804HMSE#PBF support current sensing using inductor DCR?
Yes, the LTC7804HMSE#PBF supports both RSENSE and inductor DCR current sensing via its differential SENSE+ and SENSE− inputs. When using DCR sensing, an RC network is placed between SENSE+ and SENSE− to compensate for inductor impedance phase shift. The device's current comparator operates with a typical 50mV threshold, and the ITH voltage adjusts the trip point dynamically - enabling accurate peak-current-mode control regardless of sensing method.
How does the spread spectrum feature of the LTC7804HMSE#PBF reduce EMI?
The LTC7804HMSE#PBF reduces peak radiated and conducted EMI by modulating its switching frequency ±10% around the nominal value (0–20% total deviation) when PLLIN/SPREAD is tied to INTVCC. This spreads energy across a wider bandwidth, lowering amplitude at any single frequency - easing compliance with CISPR 25 Class 5 and FCC Part 15 limits without requiring additional filtering components or shielding.
Can the LTC7804HMSE#PBF operate with input voltage below 4.5V?
Yes - once started, the LTC7804HMSE#PBF can regulate with input voltage as low as 1V when biased from the output (VBIAS connected to VOUT). This "bootstrap" operation is enabled by its internal charge pump and low-IQ design. However, initial startup requires VBIAS ≥4.5V to power the internal LDOs and gate drivers. This capability is essential for automotive cold-crank scenarios where battery voltage dips below 6V.
What is the purpose of the EXTVCC pin on the LTC7804HMSE#PBF?
The EXTVCC pin on the LTC7804HMSE#PBF provides an alternative bias path for the INTVCC LDO: when EXTVCC ≥4.7V, the internal VBIAS LDO is disabled and power is sourced from EXTVCC instead. This improves overall system efficiency by allowing use of a high-efficiency downstream switching regulator output (e.g., from a buck converter) as the controller's bias supply - reducing losses compared to deriving bias directly from the high-voltage boost input rail.
