The LT®3782A is a current mode 2-phase step-up DC/DC
converter controller. Its high switching frequency (up to
500kHz) and 2-phase operation reduce system filtering
capacitance and inductance requirements.
2-Phase Operation Reduces Required Input and
Output Capacitance
Programmable Switching Frequency:
150kHz to 500kHz
6V to 40V Input Range
10V Gate Drive with VCC ≥13V
High Current Gate Drive (4A)
Programmable Soft-Start and Current Limit
Programmable Slope Compensation for
High Noise Immunity
MOSFET Gate Signals with Programmable
Falling Edge Delay for External Synchronous
Drivers
Programmable Undervoltage Lockout
Programmable Duty Cycle Clamp (50% or Higher)
Thermally Enhanced 28-Lead TSSOP and 4mm × 5mm
QFN Packages
With 10V gate drive (VCC ≥13V) and 4A peak drive current,
the LT3782A can drive most industrial grade high power
MOSFETs with high efficiency. For synchronous applications, the LT3782A provides synchronous gate signals
with programmable falling edge delay to avoid cross
conduction when using external MOSFET drivers. Other
features include programmable undervoltage lockout,
soft-start, current limit, duty cycle clamp (50% or higher)
and slope compensation. The LT3782A is identical to the
LT3782 except that the LT3782A has a tighter current sense
mismatch tolerance.
The LT3782A is available in thermally enhanced 28-lead
TSSOP and 4mm × 5mm QFN packages.

PIN FUNCTIONS
(FE/UFD)
SGATE2 (Pin 1/Pin 26): Second Phase Synchronous Drive
Signal. An external driver buffer is needed to drive the top
synchronous power FET.
SGATE1 (Pin 2/Pin 27): First Phase Synchronous Drive
Signal. An external driver buffer is needed to drive the top
synchronous power FET.
GND (Pin 4/Pin 28): Ground.
SYNC (Pin 5/Pin 1): Synchronization Input. The pulse
width can range from 10% to 70%. Note that the operating
frequency is half of the sync frequency.
DELAY (Pin 6/Pin 2): When synchronous drivers are used,
the programmable delay that delays BGATE turns on after
SGATE turns off.
DCL (Pin 7/Pin 3): This pin programs the limit of the maximum duty cycle. When connected to VRSET, it operates at
natural maximum duty cycle, approximately 90%.
SENSE1+ (Pin 8/Pin 4): First Phase Current Sense Amplifier
Positive Input. An RC filter is required across the current
sense resistor. Current limit threshold is set at 63mV.
SENSE1– (Pin 9/Pin 5): First Phase Current Sense Amplifier
Negative Input. An RC filter is required across the current
sense resistor.
SLOPE (Pin 10/Pin 6): A resistor from SLOPE to GND
increases the internal current mode PWM slope compensation.
RSET (Pin 11/Pin 7): A resistor from RSET to GND sets the
oscillator charging current and the operating frequency.
SENSE2– (Pin 12/Pin 8): Second Phase Current Sense
Amplifier Negative Input. An RC filter is required across
the current sense resistor.
SENSE2+ (Pin 13/Pin 10): Second Phase Current Sense
Amplifier Positive Input. An RC filter is required across
the current sense resistor. Current limit threshold is set
at 63mV.
SS (Pin 14/Pin 11): Soft-Start. A capacitor on this pin sets
the output ramp up rate. The typical time for SS to reach
the programmed level is (C • 2.44V)/10μA.
VC (Pin 15/Pin 12): The output of the gm error amplifier and
the control signal of the current loop of the current-mode
PWM. Switching starts at 0.7V, and higher VC voltages
corresponds to higher inductor current.
FB (Pin 16/Pin 13): Error Amplifier Inverting Input. A
resistor divider to this pin sets the output voltage.
RUN (Pin 17/Pin 14): LT3782A goes into shutdown mode
when VRUN is below 2.2V and goes to low bias current
shutdown mode when VRUN is below 0.3V.
VEE2 (Pin 19/Pin 16): Gate Driver BGATE2 Ground. This
pin should be connected to ground as close to the IC as
possible.
BGATE2 (Pin 20/Pin 17): Second Phase MOSFET Driver.
GBIAS2 (Pin 21/Pin 18): Bias for Gate Driver BGATE2.
Should be connected to GBIAS or an external power supply
between 12V to 14V. A bypass low ESR capacitor of 2μF
or larger is needed and should be connected directly to
the pin to minimize parasitic impedance.
GBIAS1 (Pin 22/Pin 21): Bias for Gate Driver BGATE1.
Should be connected to GBIAS2.
BGATE1 (Pin 23/Pin 22): First Phase MOSFET Driver.
VEE1 (Pin 24/Pin 23): Gate Driver BGATE1 Ground. This
pin should be connected to ground as close to the IC as
possible.
VCC (Pin 27/Pin 24): Chip Power Supply. Good supply
bypassing is required.
GBIAS (Pin 28/Pin 25): Internal 11V regulator output for
biasing internal circuitry. Should be connected to GBIAS1
and GBIAS2.
Exposed Pad (Pin 29/Pin 29): The exposed package pad
is fused to internal ground and is for heat sinking. Solder
the bottom metal plate onto expanded ground plane for
optimum thermal performance. This pad should be connected to ground as close to the IC as possible.
NC (Pins 3, 18, 25, 26/Pins 9, 15, 19, 20): Not Connected.
Can be connected to GND.

LT3782A
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Operation
Soft-Start and Shutdown
The LT3782A is a two phase constant frequency current
mode boost controller. Switching frequency can be programmed up to 500kHz. During normal switching cycles,
the two channels are controlled by internal flip-flops and
are 180 degrees out-of-phase.
During soft-start, the voltage on the SS pin (VSS) controls
the output voltage. The output voltage thus ramps up following VSS. The effective range of VSS is from 0V to 2.44V.
The typical time for the output to reach the programmed
level is
Referring to the Block Diagram, the LT3782A’s basic functions include a transconductance amplifier (gm) to regulate
the output voltage and to control the current mode PWM
current loop. It also includes the necessary logic and flipflop to control the PWM switching cycles, two high speed
gate drivers to drive high power N-channel MOSFETs, and
2-phase control signals to drive external gate drivers for
optional synchronous operation.
In normal operation, each switching cycle starts with a
switch turn-on. The inductor current of each channel is
sampled through the current sense resistor and amplified
then compared to the error amplifier output VC to turn
the switch off. The phase delay of the second channel is
controlled by the divide-by-two D flip-flop and is exactly
180 degrees out-of-phase of the first channel. With a resistor divider connected to the FB pin, the output voltage
is programmed to the desired value. The 10V gate drivers
are sufficient to drive most high power N-channel MOSFET
in many industrial applications.
Additional important features include shutdown, current limit, soft-start, synchronization and programmable
maximum duty cycle. Additional slope compensation can
be added also.
Output Voltage Programming
With a 2.44V feedback reference voltage VREF, the output
VOUT is programmed by a resistor divider as shown in
the Block Diagram.
R VOUT = 2.44 1+ F1 RF2 t=
C • 2.44V
10μA
C is the capacitor connected from the SS pin to GND.
Undervoltage Lockout and Shutdown
Only when VRUN is higher than 2.45V VGBIAS will be active
and the switching enabled. The LT3782A goes into low
current shutdown when VRUN is below 0.3V. A resistor
divider can be used on RUN pin to set the desired VCC
undervoltage lockout voltage. 80mV of hysteresis is built
in on RUN pin thresholds.
Oscillation Frequency Setting and Synchronization
The switching frequency of LT3782A can be set up to
500kHz by a resistor RFREQ from pin RSET to ground.
For fSET = 250kHz, RFREQ = 80k
Once the switching frequency fSET is chosen, RFREQ can be
found from the Switching Frequency vs RFREQ graph found
under the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
Note that because of the 2-phase operation, the internal
oscillator is running at twice the switching frequency. To
synchronize the LT3782A to the system frequency fSYSTEM,
the synchronizing frequency fSYNC should be two times
fSYSTEM, and the LT3782A switching frequency fSET should
be set below 80% of fSYSTEM.
fSYNC = 2fSYSTEM and fSET < (fSYSTEM • 0.8)
For example, to synchronize the LT3782A to 200kHz system frequency fSYSTEM, fSYNC needs to be set at 400kHz
and fSET needs to be set at 160kHz. From the Switching
Frequency vs RFREQ graph found under the Typical Performance Characteristics section, RFREQ = 130k.

LT3782A
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
With a 200ns one-shot timer on chip, the LT3782A provides
flexibility on the external sync pulse width. The sync pulse
threshold is about 1.2V (Figure 1). This pin can be floated
when the sync function is not used.
Synchronous Rectifier Switches
For high output voltage applications, the power loss of the
catch diodes are relatively small because of high duty cycle.
If diodes power loss or heat is a concern, the LT3782A
provides PWM signals through SGATE1 and SGATE2 pins
to drive external MOSFET drivers for synchronous rectifier operation. Note that SGATE drives the top switch and
BGATE drives the bottom switch. To avoid cross conduction
between top and bottom switches, the BGATE turn-on is
delayed 100ns (when DELAY pin is tied to RSET pin) from
SGATE turn-off (see Figure 2). If a longer delay is needed
to compensate for the propagation delay of external gate
driver, a resistor divider can be used from RSET to ground to
program VDELAY for the longer delay needed. For example,
for a switching frequency of 250kHz and delay of 150ns,
Current Limit
Current limit is set by the 63mV threshold across SEN1P,
SEN1N for channel one and SEN2P, SEN2N for channel
two. By connecting an external resistor RS (see Block
Diagram), the current limit is set for 63mV/RS. RS should
be placed very close to the power switch with very short
traces. A low pass RC filter is needed across RS to filter out
the switching spikes. Good Kelvin sensing is required for
accurate current limit. The input bypass capacitor ground
should be at the same ground point of the current sense
resistor to minimize the ground current path.

then RFREQ1 + RFREQ2 should be 80k and VDELAY should
be 1V, with VRSET = 2.3V then RFREQ1 = 47.5k and RFREQ2
= 32.5k (see Figure 3).
Duty Cycle Limit
When DCL pin is shorted to RSET pin and switching frequency is less than 250kHz (RFREQ > 80k), the maximum
duty cycle of LT3782A will be at least 90%. The maximum
duty cycle can be clamped to 50% by grounding the DCL
pin or to 75% by forcing the VDCL voltage to 1.2V with a
resistor divider from RSET pin to ground. The typical DCL
pin input current is 0.2μA.
Layout Considerations
To prevent EMI, the power MOSFETs and input bypass
capacitor leads should be kept as short as possible. A
ground plane should be used under the switching circuitry
to prevent interplane coupling and to act as a thermal
spreading path. Note that the bottom pad of the package
is the heat sink, as well as the IC signal ground, and must
be soldered to the ground plane.
In a boost converter, the conversion gain (assuming 100%
efficiency) is calculated as (ignoring the forward voltage
drop of the boost diode):

Slope Compensation
The LT3782A is designed for high voltage and/or high
current applications, and very often these applications
generate noise spikes that can be picked up by the current sensing amplifier and cause switching jitter. To avoid
switching jitter, careful layout is absolutely necessary to
minimize the current sensing noise pickup. Sometimes
increasing slope compensation to overcome the noise
can help to reduce jitter. The built-in slope compensation can be increased by adding a resistor RSLOPE from
SLOPE pin to ground. Note that smaller RSLOPE increases
slope compensation and the minimum RSLOPE allowed is
RFREQ/2.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The Peak and Average Input Currents
And the inductance is estimated to be:
The control circuit in the LT3782A measures the input current by using a sense resistor in each MOSFET source, so
the output current needs to be reflected back to the input
in order to dimension the power MOSFET properly. Based
on the fact that, ideally, the output power is equal to the
input power, the maximum average input current is:
I
IIN(MAX) = O(MAX)

The peak current is:

IIN(PEAK) =1.2 • O(MAX)

Power Inductor Selection
In a boost circuit, a power inductor should be designed
to carry the maximum input DC current. The inductance
should be small enough to generate enough ripple current
to provide adequate signal to noise ratio to the LT3782A.
An empirical starting of the inductor ripple current (per
phase) is about 40% of maximum DC current, which is
half of the input DC current in a 2-phase circuit:

During the switch on-time, the control circuit limits the
maximum voltage drop across the sense resistor to about
63mV. The peak inductor current is therefore limited to
63mV/R. The relationship between the maximum load
current, duty cycle and the sense resistor RSENSE is:

Power MOSFET Selection
Important parameters for the power MOSFET include the

voltage (VGS(TH)), the on-resistance (RDS(ON)) versus gateto-source voltage, the gate-to-source and gate-to-drain
charges (QGS and QGD, respectively), the maximum drain
current (ID(MAX)) and the MOSFET’s thermal resistances
(RTH(JC) and RTH(JA)).

listed in the manufacturer’s data sheet.
Pay close attention to the BVDSS specifications for the
MOSFETs relative to the maximum actual switch voltage
in the application. The switch node can ring during the
turn-off of the MOSFET due to layout parasitics. Check the
switching waveforms of the MOSFET directly across the
drain and source terminals using the actual PC board layout
(not just on a lab breadboard!) for excessive ringing.

Calculating Power MOSFET Switching and Conduction
Losses and Junction Temperatures
In order to calculate the junction temperature of the power
MOSFET, the power dissipated by the device must be known.
This power dissipation is a function of the duty cycle, the
load current and the junction temperature itself (due to
the positive temperature coefficient of its RDS(ON)). As a
result, some iterative calculation is normally required to
determine a reasonably accurate value. Care should be
taken to ensure that the converter is capable of delivering
the required load current over all operating conditions (line

The first term in the equation above represents the I2R
losses in the device, and the second term, the switching
losses. The constant, k = 1.7, is an empirical factor inversely
related to the gate drive current and has the dimension
of 1/current. The ρT term accounts for the temperature
coefficient of the RDS(ON) of the MOSFET, which is typically
0.4%/°C. Figure 4 illustrates the variation of normalized
RDS(ON) over temperature for a typical power MOSFET.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
From a known power dissipated in the power MOSFET, its
junction temperature can be obtained using the following
formula:
TJ = TA + PFET • RTH(JA)
The RTH(JA) to be used in this equation normally includes
the RTH(JC) for the device plus the thermal resistance from
the case to the ambient temperature (RTH(CA)). This value
of TJ can then be compared to the original, assumed value
used in the iterative calculation process.
Input Capacitor Choice
The input capacitor must have high enough voltage and
ripple current ratings to handle the maximum input voltage
and RMS ripple current rating. The input ripple current in
a boost circuit is very small because the input current is
continuous. With 2-phase operation, the ripple cancellation
1.00
0.90
will further reduce the input capacitor ripple current rating.
The ripple current is plotted in Figure 5. Please note that
the ripple current is normalized against:
Inorm =
VIN
L • fs
Output Capacitor Selection
The voltage rating of the output capacitor must be greater
than the maximum output voltage with sufficient derating. Because the ripple current in output capacitor is a
pulsating square wave in a boost circuit, it is important
that the ripple current rating of the output capacitor
be high enough to deal with this large ripple current.
Figure 6 shows the output ripple current in the 1- and 2phase designs. As shown, the output ripple current of a
2-phase boost circuit reaches almost zero when the duty
cycle equals 50% or the output voltage is twice as much as
the input voltage. Thus the 2-phase technique significantly
reduces the output capacitor size.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
For a given VIN and VOUT, we can calculate the duty cycle D
and then derive the output RMS ripple current from Figure
6. After choosing output capacitors with sufficient RMS
ripple current rating, we also need to consider the ESR
requirement if electrolytic caps, tantulum caps, POSCAPs
or SP CAPs are selected. Given the required output ripple
voltage spec ΔVOUT (in RMS value) and the calculated RMS
ripple current ΔIOUT, one can estimate the ESR value of
the output capacitor to be
ESR ≤

External Regulator to Bias Gate Drivers
For applications with VIN higher than 24V, the IC temperature
may get too high. To reduce heat, an external regulator
between 12V to 14V should be used to override the internal
VGBIAS regulator to supply the current needed for BGATE1
and BGATE2 (see Figure 7).
Efficiency Considerations
The efficiency of a switching regulator is equal to the output power divided by the input power (¥100%). Percent
efficiency can be expressed as:
% Efficiency = 100% – (L1 + L2 + L3 + …),
where L1, L2, etc. are the individual loss components
as a percentage of the input power. It is often useful to
analyze individual losses to determine what is limiting
the efficiency and which change would produce the most
LT3782A
improvement. Although all dissipative elements in the
circuit produce losses, four main sources usually account
for the majority of the losses in LT3782A application
circuits:
1. The supply current into VIN. The VIN current is the sum
of the DC supply current IQ (given in the Electrical Characteristics) and the MOSFET driver and control currents.
The DC supply current into the VIN pin is typically about
7mA and represents a small power loss (much less
than 1%) that increases with VIN. The driver current
results from switching the gate capacitance of the power
MOSFET; this current is typically much larger than the
DC current. Each time the MOSFET is switched on and
then off, a packet of gate charge QG is transferred from
GBIAS to ground. The resulting dQ/dt is a current that
must be supplied to the GBIAS capacitor through the
VIN pin by an external supply. In normal operation:
IQ(TOT) ≈ IQ = f • QG
PIC = VIN • (IQ + f • QG)

The boost diode can be a major source of power loss
in a boost converter. For 13.2V input, 42V output at 3A,
a Schottky diode with a 0.4V forward voltage would
dissipate 600mW, which represents about 1% of the
input power. Diode losses can become significant at
low output voltages where the forward voltage is a
significant percentage of the output voltage.
6. Other losses, including CIN and CO ESR dissipation and
inductor core losses, generally account for less than
2% of the total losses.
PCB Layout Considerations
To achieve best performance from an LT3782A circuit, the
PC board layout must be carefully done. For lower power
applications, a two-layer PC board is sufficient. However,
at higher power levels, a multiplayer PC board is recommended. Using a solid ground plane under the circuit is
the easiest way to ensure that switching noise does not
affect the operation.
In order to help dissipate the power from MOSFETs and
diodes, keep the ground plane on the layers closest to the
layers where power components are mounted. Use power
planes for MOSFETs and diodes in order to improve the
spreading of the heat from these components into the
PCB.
For best electrical performance, the LT3782A circuit should
be laid out as follows:
Place all power components in a tight area. This will
minimize the size of high current loops. Orient the input
and output capacitors and current sense resistors in a way
that minimizes the distance between the pads connected
to ground plane.
Place the LT3782A and associated components tightly together and next to the section with power components.
Use a local via to ground plane for all pads that connect to
ground. Use multiple vias for power components.
Connect the current sense inputs of LT3782A directly
to the current sense resistor pads. Connect the current
sense traces on the opposite sides of pads from the traces
carrying the MOSFETs source currents to ground. This
technique is referred to as Kelvin sensing.
