LT8672EDDB#TRPBF

Overview

The LT8672EDDB#TRPBF is a high-side gate driver IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It is designed to drive external N-channel MOSFETs, specifically functioning as an active rectifier controller for reverse input protection. The device replaces power Schottky diodes in power management applications. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3V to 42V and is housed in a compact 10-DFN (3x2) package.

Feature Summary

• Active rectifier controller functionality for reverse input protection
• Drives external N-channel MOSFETs to replace power Schottky diodes
• Non-inverting gate driver operation

Applications

• Reverse polarity protection circuits
• Power management systems requiring active rectification
• High-side switching applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EDDB against the official Analog Devices datasheet to confirm the 10-DFN package and electrical specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target N-channel MOSFET gate requirements. Confirm that the component meets all necessary safety and isolation standards for the intended power application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits that require robust reverse input protection using low-loss MOSFETs instead of diodes. Consider the 3V to 42V operating range and the 10-DFN footprint constraints. Evaluate thermal performance and gate drive strength relative to the selected external MOSFET capacitance.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LT8672 family of active rectifier controllers from Analog Devices. It is distinct from other variants like the LT8672IMS which may feature different packages or pinouts. The series focuses on efficient power path management through active control of external switches.

Replacement Considerations

LT8672EDDB#TRMPBF: Same functional device in tape-and-reel packaging instead of cut-tape.
