User Manual
The LTC3862 family of 2-phase, single output non-synchronous boost DC/DC controllers provides a flexible, high performance step-up controller in three convenient package options: GN24, 5mm × 5mm 24-pin exposed pad QFN and 24-pin exposed pad TSSOP. The LTC3862 is optimized for power MOSFETs that require 5V gate drive, whereas the LTC3862-1 is designed for 10V gate drive MOSFETs.

User Manual
LTC3862 is a two phase constant frequency, current mode boost and SEPIC controller that drives N-channel power MOSFETs. It has adjustable slope compensation gain to optimize the current loop gain and improve noise immunity. The operating frequency can be set with an external resistor over a 75kHz to 500kHz range and can be synchronized to an external clock using the internal PLL. Multi-phase operation is possible using the SYNC input, the CLKOUT output and the PHASEMODE control pin allowing 2-, 3-, 4-, 6- or 12-phase operation. Other features include an internal 5V LDO with undervoltage lockout protection for the gate drivers, a precision RUN pin threshold with programmable hysteresis, soft-start and programmable leading edge blanking and maximum duty cycle.
