The LT
®
3439 is a push-pull DC/DC transformer driver that
reduces conducted and radiated electromagnetic interfer-
ence (EMI). Ultralow noise and EMI are achieved by
controlling the output switch voltage and current slew
rates. Slew rates are user adjustable to optimize output
noise versus efficiency. The LT3439 can reduce high
frequency harmonic content by as much as 40dB with only
a minor decrease in efficiency.
The LT3439 includes two 1A current limited power switches
to ensure start-up under heavy loads. It also includes an
oscillator that can be synchronized to an external clock for
more accurate placement of switcher harmonics. Protec-
tion features include current limiting, undervoltage lock-
out, thermal shutdown and cross conduction prevention
circuitry.
The LT3439 is available in a thermally enhanced 16-pin
TSSOP with an exposed backside.

PI FU CTIO S
PGND (Pins 1, 16):
Power ground is connected to the
emitter of the power switches via an internal sense resis-
tor. It has large currents flowing through it and should be
connected to a good quality ground plane.
COL A, COL B (Pins 3, 14):
These are the open collectors
of the output power switches. They are connected to the
outer terminals of the center tap transformer. Large cur-
rents flow into these pins so external traces should be kept
as short as possible.
R
SL
(Pin 4):
The slew control resistor sets the maximum
current and voltage slew rate for the collectors A and B.
The minimum resistor value is 3.4k for fast slewing and the
maximum resistor is 34k for slow slewing. For more
details, see “Slew Rate Setting” in the Applications Infor-
mation section of this data sheet.
SYNC (Pin 5):
The SYNC pin can be used to synchronize
the oscillator to an external clock. R
T
and C
T
should be set
such that the oscillator clock frequency is approximately
10% below the external clock frequency. If unused, this
pin should be tied to GND. For more details, see “Oscillator
Sync” in the Applications Information section of this data
sheet.
C
T
(Pin 6):
The oscillator capacitor pin is used in conjunc-
tion with the R
T
pin to set the oscillator frequency. For
R
T
= 16.9k, C
T
can be calculated as follows:
C
T
(nF) = 70/f
OSC
(kHz)
The transformer operating frequency and the frequency
of each output is one half of the frequency of the oscillator.
R
T
(Pin 7):
The oscillator resistor pin is used to set the
charge and discharge currents of the oscillator capacitor.
The nominal value is 16.9k. The resistance can be adjusted
between
±25%
of nominal for better frequency accuracy.
SHDN (Pin 11):
The SHDN pin is used to shut down the
part. Grounding this pin will disable all internal circuitry.
Increasing the SHDN voltage above the turn-on threshold
will enable the part. At the turn-on threshold, approxi-
mately 20µA of current is sourced out of the pin. This
current, in conjunction with the Thevenin resistance on the
pin, sets up the hysteresis. This allows the user to set the
undervoltage lockout (UVLO) of the supply and the amount
of start-up hysteresis with a resistor divider off of the input
voltage. Above 2.1V on the SHDN pin, the hysteresis
current is reduced to zero. If unused the pin can be left
floating or tied directly to the input voltage.
GND (Pin 10):
Signal Ground. The oscillator, slew control
circuitry and the internal regulator are referred to signal
ground. Internally, signal ground is tied to substrate and
the exposed backside of the device. Connect the GND pin
to the ground plane and keep the connection free of large
currents.
V
IN
(Pin 13):
This is the supply pin for the part and should
be bypassed with a 4.7µF or greater, low ESR capacitor.
When V
IN
≤
2.5V, an internal undervoltage lockout circuit
will trip and turn both outputs off.

OPERATIO
Push-Pull Topology
The push-pull DC transformer topology is a very straight-
forward switching power supply. The two switches are
turned on out of phase at 50% duty cycles. During the
switch on time, V
IN
is applied across the primary side of
the transformer. The voltage on the secondary side of the
transformer is simply V
IN
times the turns ratio. The diodes
rectify the secondary voltage and generate the output
voltage. The output capacitor is for hold-up and filtering.
Some of the topology’s advantages are: 1) Stepping up or
down the input voltage can easily be done by setting the
turns ratio. 2) The transformer provides isolation between
the input and output. 3) Each switch cycle applies V
IN
across the transformer in opposite polarities. Therefore,
the transformer core never saturates and a separate reset
circuit is not necessary.
The push-pull topology is not without its concerns. An
imbalance in the two sides of the transformer can

eventually cause the transformer to saturate. Also, dur-
ing the turn-off of the switches, the leakage inductance
causes a large undesirable voltage spike. The LT3439
slew control feature addresses both of these concerns
and is discussed in the Applications Information section.
Slew Control
Control of voltage and current slew rate is maintained via
two feedback loops. One loop controls the output switch
collector voltage dV/dt and the other loop controls the
emitter current dI/dt. Output slew control is achieved by
comparing the two currents generated by these slewing
events to a current set by the external resistor R
SL
. The two
control loops work together to provide a smooth transition
from voltage slew control to current slew control.
Internal Regulator
Most of the control circuitry operates from an internal 2.4V
low dropout regulator that is powered from V
IN
. V
