Product details
Overview
LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a dual-phase, dual-output nonsynchronous boost controller driving external N-channel MOSFETs in high-voltage DC-DC conversion. It operates from 5.5V to 60V input, delivers programmable 50kHz–425kHz switching frequency, features ±1% 1.2V internal reference, dual RUN pins, and hiccup-mode overcurrent protection-used in telecom power supplies delivering up to 240V output.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF datasheet, LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF pinout, LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF application, or LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 28-pin QFN (4mm × 5mm) package, dual independent current-mode control loops, adjustable max duty cycle (75–96%), BLANK-pin-configurable minimum on-time (120–200ns), and dual PGOOD outputs with ±10% regulation window and 135µs delay.
Technical Context
The LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF implements constant-frequency peak current-mode control with smooth quadratic slope compensation and dynamic slope recovery per channel. Its two independent control loops operate 180° out-of-phase, supporting dual-phase single-output or true dual-output configurations.
It integrates cascaded LDOs: a 10V DRVCC regulator (4.4V UVLO rising) powers gate drivers, and a 3.8V INTVCC regulator (3.3V UVLO rising) supplies analog/digital circuitry. Both LDOs require local ceramic bypassing-4.7µF at DRVCC to PGND and 1nF at INTVCC to SGND-and must not be externally biased.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5.5V to 60V - accommodates automotive load dump, industrial surges, and wide-range DC inputs without external pre-regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 50kHz to 425kHz - programmable via FREQ pin (10µA sink) or synchronized to external clock (50–450kHz), enabling EMI optimization and magnetics sizing. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.2V ±1% - precision internal voltage reference enables accurate output regulation across temperature and line/load conditions. |
| Max Duty Cycle | 75% to 96% - set by DMAX pin voltage (SGND=96%, float=84%, INTVCC=75%), allowing topology-specific duty limit enforcement for boost/SEPIC/flyback. |
| Min On-Time | 120ns to 200ns - configured via BLANK pin (SGND=120ns, float=160ns, INTVCC=200ns), critical for high VIN-to-VOUT ratios and light-load stability. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 75mV typical - adjustable down to ≤70mV using ILIM1/ILIM2 pins (10µA sink), enabling precise overcurrent protection with low-value sense resistors. |
| Power Good Accuracy | ±10% window with 135µs delay - ensures reliable system sequencing and fault reporting for both outputs independently. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF is housed in a 28-lead plastic QFN package (4mm × 5mm, UFD28), thermally enhanced with exposed SGND pad requiring PCB soldering for thermal and electrical integrity. θJA = 47°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BLANK (Pin 26) | Minimum on-time configuration | Setting voltage (SGND/float/INTVCC) selects 120/160/200ns min on-time-critical for high VIN/VOUT ratios and preventing sub-harmonic oscillation. |
| DMAX (Pin 1) | Maximum duty cycle programming | Controls upper limit of PWM conduction (96%/84%/75%) to prevent instability in boost/SEPIC/flyback topologies under transient or startup conditions. |
| FREQ (Pin 2) | Oscillator frequency control | 10µA-sink input; resistor-to-ground sets frequency (50–425kHz); also accepts external sync signal (50–450kHz) for multi-phase coherence. |
| GATE1/GATE2 (Pins 18/16) | N-channel MOSFET gate drivers | 10V gate drive referenced to PGND; RDS(ON) = 2Ω pull-up / 1Ω pull-down-optimized for high-side N-MOS in boost with fast edge rates. |
| ILIM1/ILIM2 (Pins 23/13) | Current limit threshold setting | 10µA current sink; resistor-to-SGND sets VILIM to scale current sense threshold from 75mV downward-enables precise OCP calibration. |
| PGOOD1/PGOOD2 (Pins 15/14) | Open-drain power-good indicators | Assert low after 135µs mask timer when VFB exceeds ±10% of target-supports sequenced power-up and fault isolation in dual-rail systems. |
| RUN1/RUN2 (Pins 6/7) | Independent channel enable inputs | 1.22V turn-on threshold with 80mV hysteresis and 1µA/5.5µA pull-up-allows staggered startup, fault shutdown, or external sequencing control. |
| VFB1/VFB2 (Pins 4/9) | Output voltage feedback inputs | Connect to resistor divider mid-point; ±1% 1.2V reference enables stable regulation across wide output ranges (e.g., 48V, 240V). |
| SS1/SS2 (Pins 3/8) | Soft-start ramp control | 10µA internal current charges external capacitor-sets output voltage ramp rate and hiccup-mode timing; ≥0.1µF required. |
| SENSE1+/SENSE1− (Pins 25/24) SENSE2+/SENSE2− (Pins 11/12) | Differential current sense inputs | High common-mode range (up to INTVCC); reject noise in high-side sensing; support Kelvin connections for accuracy. |
| SYNC (Pin 28) | PLL synchronization input | Accepts external clock (50–450kHz); internal 100kΩ pull-down; >1.6V = active high-enables phase-locking across multiple LTC7840s in multiphase stacks. |
| CLKOUT (Pin 27) | Phase-shifted clock output | 90° phase shift relative to Channel 1 clock-facilitates daisy-chaining for interleaved operation without external timing ICs. |
| VIN (Pin 20) | Main input supply | 5.5V–60V input; requires 0.1–1µF ceramic bypass to PGND close to pin-handles surge energy and reduces high-frequency noise injection. |
| DRVCC (Pin 19) | Gate driver LDO output | 10V ±4% regulated output; supplies gate drivers; requires ≥4.7µF X5R ceramic to PGND-must not be externally biased to avoid catastrophic failure. |
| INTVCC (Pin 22) | Control circuit LDO output | 3.8V ±5% regulated output; powers analog/digital core; requires 1nF ceramic to SGND-intended for internal use only. |
| PGND (Pin 17) | Power ground | Low-impedance return for MOSFET sources, VIN/DRVCC capacitors-must be connected directly to power plane with minimal trace length. |
| SGND (Pins 21, Exposed Pad) | Signal ground | Reference for all small-signal pins (VFB, ITH, RUN, etc.); isolated from PGND except at single-point connection-prevents noise coupling into control loop. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent current-mode control loops | Enables true dual-output regulation or interleaved single-output operation with 180° phase shift-reducing input/output ripple and improving thermal distribution. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF?
The LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 65V, with continuous operation specified from 5.5V to 60V. This wide input range allows it to handle automotive load-dump transients and industrial power surges without external clamping, making the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF suitable for harsh-environment applications where input stability cannot be guaranteed.
Can the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF be used in SEPIC or flyback topologies?
Yes, the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF is explicitly designed for flexible topology implementation including SEPIC and flyback, in addition to standard boost. Configuration requires appropriate external component selection (e.g., coupled inductor for SEPIC, transformer for flyback) and proper DMAX/BLANK pin settings to enforce safe duty-cycle limits-details are provided in the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF datasheet Applications Information section.
How does the hiccup-mode overcurrent protection work in the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF?
The LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF implements hiccup-mode OCP by disabling switching upon current-limit violation, then restarting after a timeout period set by the SS1/SS2 capacitor value. During hiccup, the controller enters low-current shutdown (≤40µA), minimizing power dissipation. Recovery is automatic and non-latching-ensuring continued operation after fault clearance without manual reset, which is essential for unattended telecom and industrial systems using the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF.
What are the thermal limitations of the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF in its QFN package?
The LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF in the 4mm × 5mm QFN (UFD28) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 47°C/W. To maintain TJ ≤ 125°C at 70°C ambient, total power dissipation must remain below 1.17W. This requires careful attention to gate charge current (dominant loss), DRVCC/INTVCC bypassing, and PCB copper area under the exposed SGND pad-design guidelines are validated in the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF thermal characterization data.
Is the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF pin-compatible with other members of the LTC78xx family?
No, the LTC7840EUFD#TRPBF is not pin-compatible with other LTC78xx controllers such as LTC7804 or LTC7810. Its 28-pin QFN pinout is unique-specifically optimized for dual-channel control with dedicated RUN, PGOOD, ILIM, and BLANK pins. Substituting with another LTC78xx part would require PCB redesign, as pin functions (e.g., CLKOUT, SYNC, DMAX) and placement differ significantly across the family.
