2-Phase Operation Reduces Required Input and
Output Capacitance
Programmable Switching Frequency:
150kHz to 500kHz
6V to 40V Input Range
10V Gate Drive with V
CC
≥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 SSOP Package
The LT
®
3782 is a current mode two 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.
With 10V gate drive (V
CC
≥13V)
and 4A peak drive current,
the LT3782 can drive most industrial grade high power
MOSFETs with high efficiency. For synchronous applica-
tions, the LT3782 provides synchronous gate signals with
programmable falling edge delay to avoid cross conduc-
tion 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 LT3782 is available in a thermally enhanced 28-lead
SSOP package.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LT3782 is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls.
Note 3:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to
protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.

PI FU CTIO S
SGATE2 (Pin 1):
Second Phase Synchronous Drive Sig-
nal. An external driver buffer is needed to drive the top
synchronous power FET.
SGATE1 (Pin 2):
First Phase Synchronous Drive Signal.
An external driver buffer is needed to drive the top syn-
chronous power FET.
NC (Pin 3):
Not Connected. Can be connected to GND.
GND (Pin 4):
Chip Ground.
SYNC (Pin 5):
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):
When synchronous drivers are used, the
programmable delay that delays BGATE turns on after
SGATE turns off.
DCL (Pin 7):
This pin programs the limit of the maximum
duty cycle. When connected to V
RSET
, it operates at natural
maximum duty cycle, approximately 90%.
SENSE1
+
(Pin 8):
First Phase Current Sense Amplifier
Positive Input. An RC filter is required across the current
sense resistor. Current limit threshold is set at 60mV.
SENSE1
–
(Pin 9):
First Phase Current Sense Amplifier
Negative Input. An RC filter is required across the current
sense resistor.
SLOPE (Pin 10):
A resistor from SLOPE to GND increases
the internal current mode PWM slope compensation.
R
SET
(Pin 11):
A resistor from R
SET
to GND sets the
oscillator charging current and the operating frequency.
SENSE2
–
(Pin 12):
Second Phase Current Sense Amplifier
Negative Input. An RC filter is required across the current
sense resistor.
SENSE2
+
(Pin 13):
Second Phase Current Sense Amplifier
Positive Input. An RC filter is required across the current
sense resistor. Current limit threshold is set at 60mV.
SS (Pin 14):
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.
V
C
(Pin 15):
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 V
C
voltages
corresponds to higher inductor current.
FB (Pin 16):
Error Amplifier Inverting Input. A resistor
divider to this pin sets the output voltage.
RUN (Pin 17):
LT3782 goes into shutdown mode when
V
RUN
is below 2.2V and goes to low bias current shutdown
mode when V
RUN
is below 0.3V.
NC (Pin 18):
Not Connected. Can be connected to GND.
VEE2 (Pin 19):
Gate Driver BGATE2 Ground. This pin
should be connected to the ground side of the second
current sense resistor.
BGATE2 (Pin 20):
Second Phase MOSFET Driver.
GBIAS2 (Pin 21):
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):
Bias for Gate Driver BGATE1. Should be
connected to GBIAS2.
BGATE1 (Pin 23):
First Phase MOSFET Driver.
VEE1 (Pin 24):
Gate Driver BGATE1 Ground. This pin
should be connected to the ground side of the second
current sense resistor.
NC (Pin 25):
Not Connected. Can be connected to GND.
NC (Pin 26):
Not Connected. Can be connected to GND.
V
CC
(Pin 27):
Chip Power Supply. Good supply bypassing
is required.
GBIAS (Pin 28):
Internal 11V regulator output for biasing
internal circuitry. Should be connected to GBIAS1 AND
GBIAS2.
EXPOSED PAD (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 opti-
mum thermal performance.
