Product details
Overview
LTC7862HFE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a high-efficiency switching surge stopper controller designed to protect downstream loads from input overvoltage transients up to 140V. It operates in 100% duty-cycle pass-through mode during normal conditions and switches into buck regulation during surges, overcurrents, or startup-clamping VOUT to a user-adjustable level (up to 60V) while delivering up to 20A output current. Used in automotive load dump (ISO 7637), MIL-STD-1275, and industrial power systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC7862HFE#TRPBF pinout, LTC7862HFE#TRPBF application, or LTC7862HFE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4V–140V input range, adjustable fault timer, RSENSE/DCR current sensing, open-drain WARNB fault indicator, and support for 50kHz–900kHz switching frequency with external MOSFET control.
Technical Context
The LTC7862HFE#TRPBF implements a peak-current-mode synchronous buck controller architecture with dual N-channel MOSFET gate drivers (TG and BG), integrated charge pump for high-side drive, and programmable fault timer (TMR) that enforces strict switching duration limits during overvoltage, overcurrent, or startup events. Its dropout detection logic enables seamless transition between 100% pass-through and regulated switching modes.
It features dual independent LDOs: INTVCC (5.0V ±3%) powers internal analog/digital circuitry, and DRVCC (6.0V or 9.0V selectable via DRVUV pin) supplies gate drivers. Current sensing uses differential SENSE+/SENSE– inputs compatible with either shunt resistors or inductor DCR, with trip threshold adjustable via ITH voltage (43–57mV typical).
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 20-lead plastic TSSOP (FE package), 4mm × 6.5mm body, exposed pad (Pin 21) connected to GND for thermal and electrical performance. Rated θJA = 38°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SENSE+ | Differential current sense (+) | Positive input to current comparator; used with SENSE– to detect overcurrent via RSENSE or DCR. |
| SENSE– | Differential current sense (–) | Negative input to current comparator; supplies bias current when > INTVCC; enables high-side sensing. |
| SS | Soft-start ramp control | Internal 10µA pull-up charges external capacitor to control output voltage ramp rate during startup/retry. |
| VFB | Feedback reference input | Regulates output clamp voltage to 0.792–0.812V; connects to resistor divider from VOUT for precise clamping. |
| ITH | Error amplifier output | Sets current limit threshold (43–57mV); also serves as compensation node for loop stability. |
| TMR | Fault timer timing input | External capacitor sets switching duration limits and cooldown timing; internal current sources define thresholds. |
| FREQ | Oscillator frequency control | Resistor-to-GND sets frequency (50–900kHz); tied to GND or INTVCC for fixed 350kHz or 535kHz operation. |
| WARNB | Open-drain fault indicator | Pulls low during switching (surge/overcurrent/startup), shutdown, or cooldown; high-Z after dropout entry (60µs delay). |
| TG | Top N-MOSFET gate driver | Floating high-side driver output (SW to BOOST swing); drives main switch with fast transitions and low impedance. |
| SW | Switch node connection | Connects to inductor and bottom MOSFET source; critical for layout; carries high di/dt during switching. |
| OVLO | Overvoltage lockout input | Logic-high (>1.2V) disables switching; maintains DRVCC/INTVCC regulation during OVLO event. |
| INTVCC | Internal 5V LDO output | Powers internal analog/digital blocks; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass close to pin for stability. |
| RUN | Enable/disable control | Below 1.12V disables controller; below 0.7V forces full shutdown (10µA IQ); must not be left floating. |
| DRVUV | DRVCC regulation select | Tied to GND → 6.0V DRVCC; tied to INTVCC → 9.0V DRVCC; also selects UVLO/EXTVCC switchover thresholds. |
| VIN | Main supply input | Primary power input (4–140V); requires local ceramic bypass to GND near pin. |
| DRVCC | Gate driver supply output | Supplies TG/BG drivers; sourced from VIN or EXTVCC LDO; requires ≥4.7µF low-ESR ceramic decoupling. |
| GND | Signal and power ground | All GND pins plus exposed pad (Pin 21) must be soldered to PCB ground plane for rated thermal/electrical performance. |
| BOOST | High-side bootstrap supply | Charged via external diode/capacitor from DRVCC; provides floating supply for TG driver during pass-through. |
| BG | Bottom N-MOSFET gate driver | Ground-referenced driver output (0–DRVCC swing); drives synchronous rectifier with low on-resistance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% duty-cycle pass-through mode | Eliminates switching loss during normal operation, reducing conduction loss to MOSFET RDS(on) × IOUT² and enabling high-efficiency "wire-like" behavior. |
| Programmable fault timer with cooldown | Enables thermal design optimized for pass-through mode only; prevents sustained high-power dissipation during transients. |
| Dual LDO architecture (INTVCC + DRVCC) | Separates low-noise analog/digital supply (5V) from high-current gate drive supply (6V/9V), improving noise immunity and drive capability. |
| Adjustable output voltage clamp | Allows precise setting of safe output ceiling (e.g., 28V, 34V, or 48V) using standard resistor values, matching downstream load requirements. |
| Open-drain WARNB fault signal | Provides system-level fault indication without additional logic; supports direct connection to microcontroller interrupt or status LED. |
| RSENSE or inductor DCR sensing | Offers flexibility in current monitoring: shunt-based for accuracy or DCR-based for cost/space savings, both with same interface. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF?
The LTC7862HFE#TRPBF has an absolute maximum input supply voltage (VIN) rating of 150V, with a specified operating input voltage range of 4V to 140V. This enables robust operation in MIL-STD-1275E and ISO 7637-2 compliant systems where transient surges reach 100V. Exceeding 150V may cause permanent damage.
How does the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF handle overvoltage events without external intervention?
The LTC7862HFE#TRPBF autonomously detects overvoltage via its OVLO pin or internal VIN monitoring, then initiates synchronous buck regulation using external N-MOSFETs to clamp VOUT to the programmed level. The integrated fault timer (TMR) limits switching duration, followed by a cooldown period before automatic retry-no host MCU required.
Can the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF operate with only one external MOSFET?
No-the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF requires two external N-channel MOSFETs: one high-side (MTOP) driven by TG and one synchronous low-side (MBOT) driven by BG. Its architecture relies on synchronous buck topology for high efficiency; omitting MBOT would disable regulation and risk shoot-through or uncontrolled operation.
What is the purpose of the DRVUV pin on the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF?
The DRVUV pin on the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF selects the DRVCC LDO output voltage (6.0V when tied to GND, 9.0V when tied to INTVCC) and determines the UVLO and EXTVCC switchover thresholds. It directly affects gate drive strength, MOSFET turn-on speed, and system-level fault response timing.
Does the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF support inductor DCR current sensing?
Yes-the LTC7862HFE#TRPBF supports both RSENSE shunt and inductor DCR current sensing via its differential SENSE+ and SENSE– inputs. When using DCR, an RC network filters the inductor voltage to generate a proportional current-sense signal, enabling accurate overcurrent protection without added power loss.
