Product details
Overview
LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a dual, 2-phase synchronous step-down controller optimized for gallium nitride (GaN) FETs, operating across 4 V to 100 V input and delivering regulated outputs from 0.8 V to 60 V. It features smart bootstrap switches, resistor-adjustable dead times, split gate drivers with independent turn-on/turn-off strength control, and ultra-low 5 μA quiescent current in single-channel operation - enabling high-efficiency, high-frequency power conversion in industrial and telecom systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF datasheet, LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF pinout, LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF application, or LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include GaN-specific gate drive voltage adjustability (4 V–5.5 V), dual-channel phase interleaving, programmable frequency (100 kHz–3 MHz), spread spectrum modulation, and internal optimization for zero-voltage switching timing without external diodes.
Technical Context
The LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF implements a constant-frequency, peak-current-mode dual controller with 180° phase interleaving to reduce input ripple and EMI. Each channel integrates independent error amplifiers (ITH1/ITH2), differential current sense comparators (SENSE1±/SENSE2±), and fully isolated gate drivers (TGUP/TGDN/BGUP/BGDN) supporting both top- and bottom-side GaN FETs.
Its architecture eliminates need for catch, clamp, or bootstrap diodes via internal smart bootstrap switches that prevent BOOSTx overcharging during dead time. Dead time is internally optimized for near-zero values or externally tuned via DTCA/DTCB pins (7 ns–60 ns), while DRVSET and DRVUV pins configure INTVCC regulation (4.5 V–5.7 V) and driver UVLO thresholds (3.6 V–5.2 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 4 V to 100 V - supports wide-input industrial and telecom power rails without pre-regulation. |
| VOUT Range | 0.8 V to 60 V - enables flexible output configuration including high-voltage intermediate bus generation. |
| Quiescent Current | 5 μA (48 VIN → 5 VOUT, Ch1 active) - extends battery life in always-on or standby systems. |
| Switching Frequency | 100 kHz to 3 MHz - allows compact magnetics and high-density layout; synchronizable externally. |
| Gate Drive Voltage | Adjustable 4 V to 5.5 V - matches threshold and Miller plateau requirements of diverse GaN FETs and logic-level MOSFETs. |
| Dead Time Control | Smart near-zero (≤2 ns) or resistor-programmable (7–60 ns) - minimizes shoot-through risk while maximizing efficiency at high frequencies. |
| Package | 40-lead (6 mm × 6 mm), side-wettable QFN - supports automated optical inspection (AOI) and robust thermal performance (θJA = 34°C/W). |
Pinout & Package
40-lead, 6 mm × 6 mm, side-wettable QFN package with exposed thermal pad (EPAD) requiring solder connection to PCB ground for rated electrical and thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| FREQ | Internal VCO frequency control | Resistor-programmable (100 kHz–3 MHz) or fixed-frequency (370 kHz/2.25 MHz); low-capacitance node critical for jitter stability. |
| DTCA / DTCB | Dead time control inputs | Set adaptive or near-zero delay between bottom-FET-off→top-FET-on (DTCA) and top-FET-off→bottom-FET-on (DTCB); resistor-tunable for margining. |
| TGUP1/TGUP2 | Top-FET gate pull-up drivers | High-current (2 Ω pull-up) outputs tied to BOOSTx; enable fast GaN gate rise with direct connection or slew-rate control via series resistor. |
| BGUP1/BGUP2 | Bottom-FET gate pull-up drivers | Pull-up to DRVCC (1 Ω); provide Kelvin sensing of bottom-FET gate during turn-off for accurate timing control. |
| SENSE1−/SENSE2− | Negative current sense inputs | Differential inputs with bias current dependent on voltage level (>3.2 V reduces VIN-referred IQ); support low-value RSENSE or DCR sensing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| GaN-optimized gate drive | Split TG/BG drivers with independently adjustable turn-on/turn-off strength and 4–5.5 V programmable drive voltage - ensures reliable switching of enhancement-mode GaN HEMTs. |
| No external protection diodes | Integrated smart bootstrap switches prevent BOOSTx overvoltage during dead time - eliminates discrete clamp/catch diodes and associated board area and losses. |
| Ultra-low light-load IQ | 5 μA total supply current with one channel active - enables >90% efficiency at <100 mA load in industrial IoT and remote monitoring applications. |
| Programmable dead time | Internally optimized near-zero dead time (≤2 ns) or resistor-adjustable 7–60 ns - balances shoot-through prevention and conduction loss across GaN FETs and operating conditions. |
| Spread spectrum modulation | 20% frequency dithering enabled by PLLIN/SPREAD = INTVCC - reduces peak EMI amplitude without altering average switching frequency or loop stability. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-phase synchronous buck controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC7891IUJ#TRPBF | Single-output, 2-phase interleaved controller with integrated MOSFET drivers; no GaN-specific optimizations or adjustable gate voltage. | Designed for silicon MOSFETs only; lacks smart bootstrap, dead time tuning, and GaN drive voltage adjustment. | Select when using standard Si MOSFETs and requiring integrated drivers instead of external GaN drivers. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage supported by the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF?
The LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF supports a minimum input voltage of 4 V, verified across its full operating junction temperature range (–40°C to +150°C). This enables use in 5 V and 12 V intermediate bus architectures, as well as battery-backed systems where input may sag under load. The controller maintains regulation and gate drive integrity down to this limit without requiring external brown-out circuitry.
Does the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF require external bootstrap diodes?
No, the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF does not require external bootstrap diodes. Its internal smart bootstrap switches actively manage BOOST1 and BOOST2 charging during dead time, preventing overvoltage and eliminating shoot-through risk. This is confirmed in the General Description and Pin Configuration sections of the datasheet, and removes two components per channel versus conventional controllers.
How is the output voltage set on the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF?
The LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF sets output voltage via resistive feedback dividers on VFB1 and VFB2. With VPRG1 floating, VFB1 regulates to 0.8 V, allowing 0.8 V–60 V output via external resistors. Tying VPRG1 to GND or INTVCC configures fixed 5 V or 12 V outputs using internal dividers. VFB2 operates similarly but defaults to tracking VFB1 in 2-phase single-output mode.
Can the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF drive both GaN and silicon MOSFETs?
Yes, the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF can drive both GaN and logic-level silicon MOSFETs. Its gate drive voltage is precisely adjustable from 4 V to 5.5 V via the DRVSET pin, matching the threshold and Miller plateau characteristics of eGaN® FETs (e.g., EPC2065) and low-VGS(th) Si MOSFETs (e.g., CSD18540Q5B). This flexibility is explicitly stated in the Features and General Description sections.
What thermal performance can be expected from the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF in a standard 4-layer PCB layout?
In a standard 4-layer PCB with 2 oz copper, 1-in² exposed thermal pad connected to internal ground planes, the LTC7890RUJM#TRPBF achieves a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 34°C/W, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. At 2 W dissipation, this yields ~68°C junction rise above ambient - well within its –40°C to +150°C operating range and validated in thermal characterization data (Figure 22–24).
