The LTC®7840 is a dual phase dual output, constant frequency current mode, nonsynchronous boost controller that drives N-channel power MOSFETs. The nonsynchronous topology makes the output voltage dependent on the choice of external components.

A wide 5.5V to 60V input supply range can accommodate high input voltage surges. The LTC7840 can be configured as a dual phase single output or dual output controller. It can be also configured for the SEPIC and flyback topologies. The switching frequency is programmed by the voltage on the FREQ pin or synchronized to an external clock. The LTC7840 features a precise 1.2V internal reference. It has two RUN pins and two power good output indicators.

The LTC7840 has an internal 10V LDO with undervoltage lockout protection for its on-chip gate driver. The maximum duty cycle and blanking time can be programmed by the voltage on DMAX and BLANK pins, respectively. The hiccup mode protects the system in the event of faults.

The LTC7840 is available in a 28-lead thermally enhanced TSSOP package (FE28) or a 28-lead QFN package (UFD28).

LTC7840EFE#PBF Demo Board | 9V ≤ VIN ≤ 36V, VOUT = 240V @ 0.7A

Product Details

Demonstration circuit DC2744 is a two stage DC/DC boost converter featuring the LTC7840, a constant frequency current mode boost controller. The DC2744A operates over a 9V to 36V input voltage range. The first stage boost generates VOUT1 at 48V. The second stage boost takes this 48V input and provides a 240V output with 0.7A of load current. The 150kHz constant frequency operation results in a small and efficient circuit. The converter provides high output voltage accuracy (typically ±3%) over a wide load range with no minimum load requirement. The demonstration circuit can be easily modified to generate different output voltages.

The DC2744 has small circuit footprint. It is a high performance cost effective solution for applications that require high step-up voltage ratios and high output power.
