LT1082 and LT1072 Major Specification Differences
USER NOTE: This data sheet is only intended to provide specifications, graphs, and a general
functional description of the LT1082. Application circuits are included to show the capability of the
LT1082. A complete design manual (AN19) and Switcher CAD (LTC Switching Power Supply Design
Program) should be obtained to assist in developing new designs. This manual contains a
comprehensive discussion of both the LT1070 and the external components used with it, as well as
complete formulas for calculating the values of these components. The manual can also be used for
the LT1082 by factoring in the lower switch current rating.

Same Pinout as LT1072
The LT
®
1082 is a monolithic high voltage switching
regulator. It can be operated in all standard switching
configurations including buck, boost, flyback, forward,
and inverting. A 1A high efficiency switch is included on
the die along with all oscillator, control, and protection
circuitry.
The LT1082 operates with supply voltages from 3V to 75V,
switch voltage up to 100V and draws only 4.5mA quies-
cent current. It can deliver load power up to 20W with no
external power devices. By utilizing current-mode switch-
ing techniques, it provides excellent AC and DC load and
line regulation.
An externally activated shutdown mode reduces total
supply current to 120µA typical for standby operation.
Totally isolated and regulated outputs can be generated by
using the optional “isolated flyback regulation mode” built
into the LT1082, without the need for optocouplers or
extra transformer windings.
The LT1082 has a unique feature to provide high voltage
short-circuit protection. When the FB pin is pulled down to
0.6V and the current out of the pin reaches approximately
350µA, the switching frequency will shift down from
60kHz to 12kHz.
The LT1082 is nearly identical to the lower voltage LT1072.
For the major differences in specifications, see the table on
the left.

low dropout internal regulator provides a 2.3V supply for
all internal circuitry on the LT1082. This low dropout
design allows input voltage to vary from 3V to 75V with
virtually no change in device performance. A 60kHz
oscillator is the basic clock for all internal timing. It turns
“on” the output switch via the logic and driver circuitry.
Special adaptive anti-sat circuitry detects onset of
saturation in the power switch and adjusts driver current
instantaneously to limit switch saturation. This minimizes
driver dissipation and provides very rapid turn-off of the
switch.
A 1.2V bandgap reference biases the positive input of the
error amplifier. The negative input is brought out for
output voltage sensing. This feedback pin has a second
function: when pulled low with an external resistor and
with I
FB
of 60µA to 200µA, it programs the LT1082 to
The LT1082 is a current mode switcher. This means that
switch duty cycle is directly controlled by switch current
rather than by output voltage. Referring to the block
diagram, the switch is turned “on” at the start of each
oscillator cycle. It is turned “off” when switch current
reaches a predetermined level. Control of output voltage is
obtained by using the output of a voltage sensing error
amplifier to set current trip level. This technique has
several advantages. First, it has immediate response to
input voltage variations, unlike ordinary switchers which
have notoriously poor line transient response. Second, it
reduces the 90° phase shift at mid-frequencies in the
energy storage inductor. This greatly simplifies closed-
loop frequency compensation under widely varying input
voltage or output load conditions. Finally, it allows simple
pulse-by-pulse current limiting to provide maximum switch
protection under output overload or short conditions. A

disconnect the main error amplifier output and connects
the output of the flyback amplifier to the comparator input.
The LT1082 will then regulate the value of the flyback pulse
with respect to the supply voltage. This flyback pulse is
directly proportional to output voltage in the traditional
transformer coupled flyback topology regulator. By
regulating the amplitude of the flyback pulse, the output
voltage can be regulated with no direct connection between
input and output. The output is fully floating up to the
breakdown voltage of the transformer windings. Multiple
floating outputs are easily obtained with additional
windings. A special delay network inside the LT1082
ignores the leakage inductance spike at the leading edge of
the flyback pulse to improve output regulation.
When I
FB
drawn out of the FB pin reaches 350µA, the
LT1082 shifts the switching frequency down to 12kHz.
This unique feature provides high voltage short-circuit
protection in systems like the telecom 5V supplies with
input voltages down to –70V; lower frequency is needed
under short-circuit conditions with current mode switchers
because minimum “on” time cannot be forced below the
internally set blanking time. Referring to the telecom 5V
supply circuit on the front page, with output shorted to
ground, the V
FB
stays at 0.6V when sourcing I
FB
up to
1mA. If the FB pin is forced to source more than 1mA, the
frequency shifting function may be defeated. Therefore,
the minimum suggested value for R
FB
is 1k and the
maximum suggested value is 1.2k. Also, no capacitance
more than 1nF should be used on the FB pin, because it
may cause unstable switching frequency in this low
frequency mode.
The error signal developed at the comparator input is
brought out externally. This pin (V
C
) has four different
functions. It is used for frequency compensation, current
limit adjustment, soft starting, and total regulator shutdown.
During normal regulator operation this pin sits at a voltage
between 0.9V (low output current) and 2V (high output
current). The error amplifiers are current output (g
m
)
types, so this voltage can be externally clamped for
adjusting current limit. Likewise, a capacitor-coupled
external clamp will provide soft start. Switch duty cycle
goes to zero if the V
C
pin is pulled to ground through a
diode, placing the LT1082 in an idle mode. Pulling the V
C
pin below 0.15V causes total regulator shutdown, with
only 120µA supply current for shutdown circuitry biasing.
See AN19 for full application details.
Extra Pins on the MiniDIP Packages
The miniDIP LT1082 has the emitters of the power
transistor brought out separately from the ground pin.
This eliminates errors due to ground pin voltage drops and
allows the user to reduce switch current limit by a factor
of 2:1 by leaving the second emitter (E2) disconnected.
The first emitter (E1) should always be connected to the
ground pin. Note that switch “on” resistance doubles
when E2 is left open, so efficiency will suffer somewhat
when switch currents exceed 100mA. Also, note that chip
dissipation will actually
increase
with E2 open during
normal load operation, even though dissipation in current
limit mode will
decrease
. See “Thermal Considerations.”
Thermal Considerations When Using the
MiniDIP Packages
The low supply current and high switch efficiency of the
LT1082 allow it to be used without a heat sink in most
applications when the TO-220 package is selected.
This package is rated at 50°C/W. The miniDIPs, however,
are rated at 100°C/W in ceramic (J) and 90°/W in plastic
(N).
Care should be taken for miniDIP applications to ensure
that the worst case input voltage and load current conditions
do not cause excessive die temperatures. The following
formulas can be used as a rough guide to calculate LT1082
power dissipation. For more details, the reader is referred
to Application Note 19 (AN19), “Efficiency Calculations”
section.

= 1.5V, and R3 = 2k, offset
voltage shift is 5mV. This is not particularly bothersome,
but note that high offset could result if R3 were reduced to
a much lower value. Also, the synchronizing transistor
must sink higher currents with low values of R3, so larger
drives may have to be used. The transistor must be
capable of pulling the V
C
pin to within 100mV of ground to
ensure synchronizing.
Total power dissipation is the sum of supply current times
input voltage plus switch power:

)(V

In a typical example, using negative-to-positive converter
to generate 5V at 0.5A from a –45V input, duty cycle is
approximately 12%, and switch current is about 0.5A,
yielding:
I
IN
= 4.5mA + 0.5(0.004 + DC/28) = 8.7mA

• 1.2 • (0.12) = 0.036W
P
TOT
= (45V)(8.7mA) + 0.036 = 0.43W
Temperature rise in a plastic miniDIP would be 90°C/W
times 0.43W, or approximately 39°C. The maximum am-
bient temperature would be limited to 100°C (commercial
temperature limit) minus 39°C, or 61°C.
In most applications, full load current is used to calculate
die temperature. However, if overload conditions must
also be accounted for, four approaches are possible. First,
if loss of regulated output is acceptable under overload
conditions, the internal
thermal limit
of the LT1082 will
protect the die in most applications by shutting off switch
current.
Thermal limit
is not a tested parameter, however,
and should be considered only for noncritical applications
with temporary overloads. A second approach is to use the
larger TO-220 (T) package which, even without a heat sink,
may limit die temperatures to safe levels under overload
conditions. In critical situations, heat sinking of these
packages is required; especially if overload conditions
must be tolerated for extended periods of time.
The third approach for lower current applications is to
leave the second switch emitter (miniDIP only) open. This
increases switch “on” resistance by 2:1, but reduces
switch current limit by 2:1 also, resulting in a net 2:1
reduction in I
2
R switch dissipation under current limit
conditions.
The fourth approach is to clamp the V
C
pin to a voltage less
than its internal clamp level of 2V. The LT1082 switch
current limit is zero at approximately 1V on the V
C
pin and
1.6A at 2V on the V
C
pin. Peak switch current can be
externally clamped between these two levels with a diode.
See AN19 for details.
LT1082 Synchronizing
The LT1082 can be externally synchronized in the fre-
quency range of 75kHz to 90kHz. This is accomplished as
shown in the accompanying figures. Synchronizing oc-
curs when the V
C
pin is pulled to ground with an external
transistor. To avoid disturbing the DC characteristics of
the internal error amplifier, the width of the synchronizing
pulse should be under 1µs. C2 sets the pulse width at
0.6µs. The effect of a synchronizing pulse on the LT1082
amplifier offset can be calculated from:
