Product details
Overview
TSM108IDT from STMicroelectronics is a high-voltage step-down PWM controller IC designed to drive external P-channel MOSFETs or PNP transistors in battery charger and DC/DC converter applications. It delivers precise constant-voltage (2.52 V ±70 mV) and constant-current (206 mV ±25 mV sense threshold) regulation, sustains 60 V transient input, and integrates UVLO (8–9 V), OVLO (32–35 V), and standby mode with 150 µA quiescent current.
For engineers reviewing the TSM108IDT datasheet, TSM108IDT pinout, TSM108IDT application, or TSM108IDT equivalent, key selection considerations include its 14-pin SO package, dual error amplifiers for independent CV/CC loops, 70–130 kHz adjustable switching frequency via OSC pin capacitor, and gate driver capable of 40 mA sink / 80 mA source into PMOS gates - critical for automotive 12 V accessory designs meeting load dump requirements.
Technical Context
The TSM108IDT implements a dual-loop control architecture: one error amplifier (VCTRL/VCOMP) compares a resistor-divided output voltage against a 2.52 V reference, while the second (ICTRL/ICOMP) compares the voltage across an external sense resistor against a 206 mV reference. Their outputs are diode-ORed to feed a sawtooth-based PWM comparator, enabling seamless transition between CV and CC modes during battery charging.
Its gate driver is a totem-pole stage with asymmetric turn-on/turn-off drive strength (15–40 mA sink vs. 30–80 mA source), integrated 12 V gate clamp, and compatibility with Ciss up to 1.5 nF. UVLO and OVLO thresholds are programmable via external resistive dividers using internal 184 kΩ/76.5 kΩ (UV) and 275 kΩ/23.2 kΩ (OV) divider networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Max | 60 V - withstands automotive load dump transients without external clamping |
| VREF | 2.52 V ±70 mV - sets regulated output voltage accuracy in CV mode |
| VSENSE | 206 mV ±25 mV - defines current limit threshold in CC mode |
| FOSC | 70–130 kHz - adjustable via external capacitor on OSC pin; typical 100 kHz for choke size/ripple trade-off |
| DMAX | 95% - limits duty cycle to prevent MOSFET linear-mode operation and thermal runaway |
| ISTBY | 150 µA - enables ultra-low-power inactive state while maintaining safe OFF-state lockout |
| UVLO Threshold | 8–9 V - disables operation below battery undervoltage; 200 mV hysteresis prevents oscillation |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-side current sensing | Direct VS/ICTRL interface enables accurate high-side shunt placement without level-shifting circuitry |
| Programmable UVLO/OVLO | Adjustable thresholds via external resistors preserve system safety while supporting custom battery voltage ranges |
| Integrated 2.52 V reference | ±2.8% tolerance over -25°C to +85°C enables <1% output voltage regulation with proper divider design |
| Asymmetric gate drive | Slower turn-on (via lower sink current) reduces inrush stress on MOSFET; faster turn-off minimizes conduction loss |
| Current foldback protection | -6 mV offset on current amplifier inputs limits charge current during low-battery or short-circuit conditions |
| Standby mode | Disables oscillator, error amps, and UVLO/OVLO comparators - maintains zero gate drive while cutting ICC to 150 µA |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down PWM controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UC3843BD1R2G | Fixed 2.5 V reference; no integrated current sense amplifier; requires external op-amp for CC mode | Lacks native CC regulation - unsuitable for battery charging without added circuitry | Select only if CV-only regulation suffices and cost sensitivity outweighs design complexity |
| LM5002MM/NOPB | Higher 100 V VIN rating; integrated high-side N-MOSFET driver; no standalone CC loop | Designed for flyback/boost; not optimized for high-side P-MOSFET buck topologies | Prefer for higher-input-voltage isolated supplies, not automotive 12 V battery chargers |
Compared with UC3843BD1R2G and LM5002MM/NOPB, the TSM108IDT uniquely integrates dual independent CV/CC error amplifiers, 60 V rugged BCD process, and P-MOSFET-specific gate drive - making it the only drop-in solution for automotive-grade, single-stage CC/CV battery chargers requiring no external current-sense op-amps or level shifters.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage transient for TSM108IDT?
The TSM108IDT supports 60 V transient input on the VCC pin for up to 400 ms, satisfying ISO 7637-2 Load Dump Pulse 5a requirements for 12 V automotive systems. This eliminates the need for external TVS diodes in most cigarette lighter adapter designs, provided the external MOSFET and diode also sustain ≥60 V.
Can TSM108IDT drive an N-channel MOSFET instead of a P-channel device?
No - the TSM108IDT gate driver is explicitly designed for high-side P-channel MOSFETs or PNP transistors. Its GD pin provides a totem-pole output referenced to VCC, sinking current to turn the P-MOSFET ON. Driving an N-MOSFET would require bootstrapping or isolated gate drive, which the IC does not support.
How is the current limit adjusted, and what is the tolerance of the sense voltage?
The current limit is set by an external sense resistor (Rsense) placed in series with the output positive line, where Ilim = 206 mV / Rsense. The Vsense reference has a total tolerance of ±25 mV (±12%) over -25°C to +85°C, contributing directly to current limit accuracy. For tighter regulation, use low-tempco resistors and consider layout symmetry for Kelvin sensing.
Does TSM108IDT support synchronous rectification?
No - the TSM108IDT is designed for asynchronous buck topologies using an external Schottky or ultrafast recovery diode. It lacks a second gate driver output or timing control for synchronous FETs. Its GD pin drives only the high-side P-MOSFET, and the freewheeling path relies on the external diode connected between output and ground.
