The LT®8672 is an active rectifier controller for reverse
input protection. It drives an external N-channel MOSFET
to replace a power Schottky diode. Its very low quiescent
current and fast transient response meet the tough requirements in automotive applications where AC input signals
of up to 100kHz are present. These signals are rectified
with minimum power dissipation on the external FET,
simplifying thermal management on the PCB.
nn
With a drop of only 20mV, the LT8672 solution eases the
minimum input voltage requirement during cold crank
and start-stop, allowing simpler and more efficient circuits. If the input power source fails or is shorted, a fast
turn-off minimizes reverse current transients. An available
shutdown mode reduces the quiescent current to 3.5μA.
An integrated auxiliary boost regulator provides the required boost voltage to turn the external FET fully on. A
power good pin signals when the external FET is ready to
take load current.

PIN FUNCTIONS
EN/UVLO (Pin 1): The LT8672’s active rectifier controller
and the auxiliary boost regulator are shut down when this
pin is below 1.21V. Tie to DRAIN if this shutdown feature
is not used.
GND (Pin 2): This pin has no function in the application
and should be connected to ground.
PG (Pin 3): The PG pin is the open drain output of an internal monitor circuitry. PG pulls low if any of the following
criteria is met: the part is in shutdown, the AUX voltage
has not reached its regulation value during start-up or
the gate driver’s fast pull-up path is active for more than
17µs. If the PG pin is used to control the output load, it can
protect the MOSFET from being overloaded under these
conditions. PG output is valid when DRAIN is above the
minimum input voltage.
GND (Pin 4): This is the ground of all the internal circuitry.
Tie directly to the local GND plane.
NC (Pin 5): This pin is not connected internally. Connect
it to ground or leave it floating.
AUXSW (Pin 6): Output of the Internal Power Switch of the
Auxiliary Boost Regulator. This node should be kept small
on the PCB for good performance and low EMI. Connect
the boost inductor between this pin and the DRAIN pin.
AUX (Pin 7): Auxiliary Boost Regulator Output. This pin
is used to provide a drive voltage, higher than the input
voltage, to the gate driver of the active rectifier controller.
Connect a 1µF capacitor between this pin and the DRAIN
pin as close as possible to the IC. Do not place a capacitor
to any other node than DRAIN on this pin.
DRAIN (Pin 8): Drain Voltage Sense and Supply Voltage.
The voltage sensed at this pin is used to control the external
MOSFET gate. It also provides current to the LT8672’s
internal circuitry. Connect this pin as close as possible
to the drain of the external N-channel MOSFET. This pin
must be locally bypassed with at least 4.7µF.
SOURCE (Pin 9): Source Connection. SOURCE is the return
path of the gate fast pull-down. The voltage sensed at this
pin is also used to control the MOSFET gate. Connect
this pin as close as possible to the source of the external
N-channel MOSFET.
GATE (Pin 10): Gate Drive Output. This pin drives the gate
of the external N-channel MOSFET. Connect this pin to the
gate of the MOSFET.
Exposed Pad (Pin 11, DFN Only): The exposed pad must
either be left floating or be connected to the GND pin.

LT8672
OPERATION
The LT8672 is an active rectifier controller including an
integrated auxiliary boost regulator for fast turn on of the
external N-channel MOSFET. Operation is best understood
by referring to the Block Diagram.
Active Rectifier Controller
The active rectifier controller controls an external N-channel
MOSFET (M1) to form an ideal diode. The GATE amplifier
senses across DRAIN and SOURCE and drives the gate of
the MOSFET to regulate the forward voltage to 20mV. As
the load current increases, GATE is driven higher until a
point is reached where the MOSFET is fully on. If the load
current is reduced, the GATE amplifier drives the MOSFET
gate lower to maintain a 20mV drop. If the voltage VDRAIN
is reduced to a point where a forward drop of 20mV cannot
be supported, the GATE amplifier drives the MOSFET off.
During fast SOURCE–DRAIN transients such as fast varying
input (SOURCE) signals where the regulating 20mV loop
is too slow, fast pull-up (FPU) and fast pull-down (FPD)
current paths turn on and off the external MOSFET quickly.
This rectifies the input signal the same way a diode would
do but with much less power dissipation.
The EN/UVLO pin can be used to shut down the active
rectifier controller and auxiliary boost regulator. By setting
EN/UVLO low, total system input current is reduced to less
than 3.5µA. The conduction path on the external MOSFET
would only be through its body diode.
Note that it typically takes 7ms for the internal supply
voltages to stabilize once the DRAIN voltage exceeds the
minimum voltage of 2.85V.
Auxiliary Boost Regulator
The auxiliary boost regulator uses a hysteretic control
scheme in conjunction with a constant low side current
limit of 100mA. When the AUX–DRAIN voltage is below
its nominal value of typically 11V, the low side power
switch is turned on. The LAUX inductor current rises, until
it reaches the low side current limit of 100mA, at which
point the low side switch is turned off and the inductor
discharges into CAUX until its current falls to zero. Then,
the low side switch turns on again, unless the AUX–DRAIN
voltage has risen above its nominal value. In this case,
all high power circuitry is shut off in order to reduce the
quiescent current.
The SOURCE and GATE pins are protected against reverse
input voltages of up to –40V. GATE is pulled to SOURCE
when SOURCE goes negative, turning off the MOSFET and
isolating DRAIN from the negative input.
This control scheme results in a switching frequency which
depends on inductor value and DRAIN voltage.
The gate voltage for the external MOSFET is provided by
the auxiliary boost regulator, which regulates its output
AUX to 11V above DRAIN.
The open drain power good pin PG goes high impedance
when no fault is present. This indicates the external MOSFET
is operating properly.

LT8672
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Active Rectifier Controller
Blocking diodes are commonly placed in series with supply inputs to protect against supply reversal. The LT8672
replaces diodes in these applications with a MOSFET to
reduce both the voltage drop and power loss associated
with a passive solution. The curve shown in Figure 1 illustrates the dramatic improvement in power loss achieved in
a practical application. This represents significant savings
in board area by greatly reducing power dissipation in the
pass device. At low input voltages, the improvement in
forward voltage loss is readily appreciated where headroom
is tight, as shown in Figure 2.
POWER DISSIPATION (W)
10
8
The LT8672 does not require any bypass capacitor at the
SOURCE pin (CBYP in the Block Diagram). Should such
a capacitor be needed for other reasons, for example as
part of an up-front EMI filter, its capacitance must not
exceed 60nF; otherwise, the gate driver’s stability may be
impaired. This applies to the total capacitance connected
to SOURCE on the PCB.

Figure 1. Power Dissipation Comparison Between

It is important to note that the EN/UVLO pin, while disabling the LT8672 and reducing its current consumption to
3.5μA, does not disconnect the load from the input since
the MOSFET’s body diode is ever-present.
Shutdown Mode/Undervoltage Lockout
In shutdown, the LT8672 pulls GATE low to SOURCE,
turning off the MOSFET and reducing current consumption to 3.5μA. Shutdown does not interrupt forward
current flow; a path is still present through M1’s body
diode. When enabled, the LT8672 operates as an active
rectifier. If shutdown is not needed, connect EN/UVLO to
DRAIN. EN/UVLO may be driven with a 3.3V or 5V logic
signal. To disable the part, EN/UVLO must be pulled down
below 1.21V.

VOLTAGE
The LT8672 operates from 3V to 42V and withstands an
absolute maximum range of –40V to 42V without damage.
In automotive applications the LT8672 operates through
load dump, cold crank and two-battery jumps, and it
survives reverse battery connections while also protecting
the load. Furthermore, due to its fast response to changes
in the external MOSFET’s forward voltage, it can rectify
input ripple with amplitudes as high as 6VP-P up to 50kHz.
Rectification up to 100kHz is possible with amplitudes as
high as 2VP-P. The fast gate drive capability of the LT8672
prevents the external MOSFET from overheating during
these demanding conditions since its body diode conducts
current only for a very small portion of the ripple period.

Note that due to the comparator’s hysteresis, the LT8672
will not be enabled until VBATT rises slightly above
VBATT(EN/UVLO). If EN/UVLO is connected using a high
ohmic resistor, it is subject to capacitive coupling from
nearby clock lines or traces exhibiting high dV/dt. Bypass
EN/UVLO to GND with 1nF to eliminate injection.
This capacitor, if sized accordingly, will also prevent

SHORT
Input Short-Circuit Faults and Negative Transients
For fast negative input transients, the LT8672 relies on
its fast pull-down (FPD) comparator. But since the FPD
threshold is negative, reverse current is built up in the
external MOSFET prior to an FPD turn-off. This process
resembles the reverse recovery of a diode, although
cause and timing differ. Since there is always a parasitic
or, in case of an up front EMI filter, intended inductance
in front of SOURCE, the reverse current stores energy
in this inductance. This energy pulls the SOURCE node
negative, once the external MOSFET is finally turned off.
A zero impedance short-circuit directly across the input
and ground is especially troublesome because it permits
the highest possible reverse current to build up.
This negative transient on SOURCE may potentially
be destructive to the LT8672, since the voltage on the
SOURCE pin is limited to –40V. To prevent damage to the
LT8672, protect the SOURCE pin as shown in Figure 4
by clamping to the ground node with two TVS diodes.
Negative spikes, seen after the MOSFET turns off during
an FPD event, are clamped by D2. The example, an 18V
TVS, is a good choice for automotive applications, where
a reversed battery could produce a reverse voltage of up
to 14.4V, at which D2 should not conduct any current. D2
is not required if reverse-input protection is not needed.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
D1 protects SOURCE in the positive direction during load
steps and overvoltage conditions. The example, a 33V
TVS, is a good choice for automotive applications, where
a load dump could produce an overvoltage at which D1
should not conduct any current.
If neither D1 nor any reverse current protection (D2) is
needed, a diode is still required at SOURCE to protect the
LT8672 from negative inductive spikes caused by any
parasitic input inductance.
For input voltages 4V greater than VGS(MAX) of the external
MOSFET, a direct short (minimal inductance of less than
a few nH) at the SOURCE node on the PCB could temporarily increase the VGS of the external MOSFET above its
VGS(MAX). If such a short is to be expected, D3 is needed
to protect the external MOSFET.
Any leakage current in D3 will increase the total quiescent
current accordingly. In addition, D3’s leakage current
should not exceed 5µA, as it would otherwise create an
offset at the gate driver’s input, increasing the SOURCE–
DRAIN regulation voltage.

Rectification of Fast Input Ripple
The LT8672 is specifically designed to address the challenging specifications for battery connected automotive
electronic control units (ECUs). For example, according
to automotive norms ISO16750 or LV124 an ECU may be
subjected to an AC ripple superimposed on its supply, with
frequencies of up to 30kHz and amplitudes of up to 6VP-P.
Due to its gate driver’s high output current and short delay
times, the LT8672 is able to control the external MOSFET
rapidly enough even at these frequencies to keep power
dissipation and reverse current conduction to a minimum.
In addition, this significantly reduces the ripple current in
the output capacitor.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
MOSFET Selection
All load current passes through an external MOSFET, M1.
The important characteristics of the MOSFET are onresistance, RDS(ON), the maximum drain-source voltage,
BVDSS, the gate threshold voltage VGS(TH) and the total
gate charge QGTOT.
Gate drive is compatible with standard threshold and
logic-level MOSFETs over the entire operating range of
3V to 42V. For logic-level MOSFETs, VGS(MAX) should be
±15V or higher.
The maximum allowable drain-source voltage, BVDSS, must
be higher than the power supply voltage. If the input is
grounded, the full supply voltage will appear across the
MOSFET. If the input is reversed and the output is held up
by a charged capacitor, battery or power supply, the sum
of the input and output voltages will appear across the
MOSFET and require a BVDSS > VOUT + |VBATT|.
The MOSFET’s on-resistance, RDS(ON), directly affects
the forward voltage drop and power dissipation. Desired
forward voltage drop should be less than that of a diode
for reduced power dissipation; 60mV is a good starting
point. Choose a MOSFET which has:
R DS(ON) <
Forward Voltage Drop
I LOAD
The resulting power dissipation is
For fast gate drive operation choose a MOSFET with the
smallest total gate charge QGTOT that also satisfies the
BVDSS and RDS(ON) requirements. A MOSFET with smaller
QGTOT not only reduces reverse current during the turn-off
phase but also stays cooler during rectification of high
amplitude ripple on the input.
If the MOSFET has an integrated gate protection, its
leakage should not exceed 5µA, as this would otherwise
create an offset at the gate driver’s input, increasing the
SOURCE–DRAIN regulation voltage.
When the LT8672 rectifies an AC ripple voltage, the average current through the external MOSFET still equals the
load current, but the peak current is much higher. Since
the MOSFET’s power dissipation is proportional to the
square of this current as described above, the average
power dissipation during rectification exceeds the power
dissipation in steady state. The actual peak current depends
on the external components and their parasitics. Figure 8
shows a simple model which can be used to estimate the
peak current by computer simulation. RBATT represents
the impedance of the voltage source VBATT, the inductor
models the combined inductance of the cable and, if
present, the EMI filter inductor. The ideal diode has no
resistance and a forward voltage of 0V. RDS(ON) represents
the on-resistance of the external MOSFET, while CLOAD and
RESR represent the electrolytic capacitor and its equivalent
series resistance.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
For example, an application with CLOAD = 470µF,
RESR = 16mΩ, RDS(ON) = 5mΩ, LCABLE + LEMI = 1µH, and
RBATT = 50mΩ dissipates 0.5W of power in steady state
with a load current of 10A. But this power increases to
1.13W when a 6VP-P AC-ripple with a frequency of 10kHz is
superimposed on VBATT. Removing any inductance raises
this power even further to 1.3W, while the RMS current
in CLOAD reaches 12.6A.
This model can also be used to select an electrolytic capacitor which can handle the corresponding RMS current
for the duration of the AC-ripple.
During rectification, the electrolytic capacitor CLOAD reduces the ripple voltage seen by the load. Figure 9 shows
the corresponding waveforms for the rectification of a
sinusoidal SOURCE ripple voltage.

The load is exposed to the remaining ripple voltage VR,
which depends on CLOAD, ripple frequency, ripple amplitude, and load current. This ripple voltage decreases with
frequency and is approximately:
14
4VAC • ILOAD
4VAC • f • C LOAD + ILOAD
C LOAD =
4VAC – VR
4VAC • VR • f
• ILOAD
For example, if the ripple voltage VR is to be kept below
2V at f = 5kHz, VAC = 3V (6VP-P), and a load current of
ILOAD = 5A, then CLOAD = 417µF.
When selecting an electrolytic capacitor also keep in mind
the high peak currents at high frequencies as discussed
in the previous section.
Automotive Cold Crank
VR
VR =
Since the power supply rejection of the load usually degrades with frequency, it is often desirable to limit VR at
a given frequency f. Using the above equation, the necessary minimum capacitance CLOAD can be calculated from:
Electrolytic Capacitor and Ripple Voltage
TIME
where VAC is the ripple amplitude in V, f the ripple frequency
in Hz, CLOAD the capacitance of the electrolytic capacitor
in F, and ILOAD the load current in A. Note that any ripple
caused by the equivalent series resistance of CLOAD will
increase VR accordingly, in particular at high frequencies.
During the so-called “cold crank” (e.g. LV124 E-11) a car’s
battery voltage may drop to 3.2V. As a result, the high
voltage drop of traditional reverse protection schemes
using passive rectifiers like Schottky diodes require the
supplied circuitry to work at minimum input voltages as
low as 2.5V. Buck-boost regulators may then be needed
instead of simpler and more efficient buck regulators in
order to provide a stable 3V supply often required by many
microcontrollers.
The LT8672’s minimum input operating voltage of 3V allows the active rectifier to operate through the cold crank
pulse with minimum drop between input and output. This
allows use of a buck regulator with a minimum operating
voltage of 3V and low dropout characteristics like the
LT8650S to generate a 3V supply.
Figure 10 shows input and output waveforms during a
cold crank pulse, comparing the LT8672 active rectifier
controller to a Schottky diode.

Auxiliary Boost Regulator
The auxiliary boost regulator provides a boosted voltage
to the gate driver to enhance the external MOSFET fully
with at least 10V of gate drive.
It uses a hysteretic control scheme in conjunction with
a constant low side current limit of 100mA. This control
scheme results in a switching frequency with a maximum
value which depends on inductor value and DRAIN voltage.
Recommended boost regulator external passive components are a 1μF/16V ceramic capacitor and a 47μH to 100μH
inductor. The inductor’s saturation current should be at
least 120mA and its ESR should not exceed 10Ω, therefore
small chip inductors like CBC2518T470K or CBC2518T101K
from Taiyo Yuden or those from the XPL2010 series from
Coilcraft are good options.
The boost regulator maximum output current available to
the gate driver on the AUX pin can be approximated by
the following equation:
I AUX (MAX ) = 50 •
(VDRAIN + 11.6) • (10L AUX + 3VDRAIN – 0.6)
where fAUXSW(MAX) is the maximum switching frequency
in MHz, VDRAIN is the DRAIN pin voltage in volts and LAUX
is the boost regulator inductor in μH.
4

1180 • (VDRAIN – 0.2)
VDRAIN – 1
VDRAIN + 11.8
where IAUX(MAX) is the maximum boost regulator output
current in mA and VDRAIN is the DRAIN pin voltage in volts.
However, depending on the total average current required
by the gate driver on the AUX pin to switch the external
MOSFET on and off periodically, the boost regulator might
enter discontinuous mode and switch at a lower frequency
given by the following equation:
f AUXSW =
2.9 •I AUX
L AUX
where fAUXSW is the switching frequency in MHz, IAUX is
the average current required by the gate driver in mA and
LAUX is the boost regulator inductor in μH.
During rectification of input ripple, fully charging and
discharging the gate capacitance of the external MOSFET
requires an average AUX current
I AUX =
f • QG
1000
where f is the ripple frequency in kHz, QG is the total gate
charge of the external MOSFET in nC, and IAUX is the AUX
current in mA drawn by the gate driver. For example, rectification of a 6VP-P–50kHz input ripple superimposed on the
12V battery voltage, using an external MOSFET with 100nC
of total gate charge under full load conditions, requires an
average turn on gate current of 5mA which the gate driver
takes from the AUX pin. Under these conditions, the boost
regulator runs with a switching frequency of 145kHz using
a 100μH inductor. The maximum available AUX current is
approximately 23mA with the boost regulator switching
at about 595kHz.
When the active rectifier is in steady state conditions, the
AUX pin current required by the gate driver is approximately
1μA and the boost regulator is most of the time in sleep

Power Good Pin
The power good pin is the output of internal monitoring
circuitry, which signals when the external MOSFET is able
to pass the full load current with a voltage of less than
75mV between its source and drain. PG only goes high if
the LT8672 is enabled, and the AUX voltage has reached
its regulation value during start-up, and if the gate driver’s
fast pull-up path is not engaged for more than 17µs. This
allows detection of a number of system faults.
For example, the gate of the external MOSFET may be
shorted to ground or source. It would then be impossible
to turn it on, which would keep the gate driver’s fast pullup path active indefinitely, thereby pulling PG low. The
fast pull-up path would never be active for so long in a
correctly working system, because charging the external
MOSFET’s gate requires much less time.
An insufficient AUX voltage (for example during start-up
or due to a system fault) may be able to deliver sufficient
gate-source voltage to the external MOSFET for small load
currents, but not for high load currents. Therefore PG is
pulled low if AUX remains too low during start-up.
VAUXSW
10V/DIV
PG is valid (and pulls low) even in shutdown. Although
this may increase the overall shutdown current through
the external pull-up resistor on PG, it keeps the system
correctly informed about the shutdown status of the
LT8672 and that it cannot enhance the external MOSFET.

Thus, if PG is used to control the load current in the
external MOSFET, its body diode can be prevented from
conducting large currents for a prolonged period of time.
This significantly reduces the amount of heat generated
by the external MOSFET even in fault conditions.
The fast pull-up path is active when the external MOSFET’s
forward voltage exceeds 75mV, therefore it is recommended to choose a MOSFET large enough not to exceed
this threshold with maximum load current. If the PG flag
is ignored in the application, the MOSFET can be pushed
to higher forward voltages provided that its power dissipation is kept within safe levels.

Layout Considerations
Connect the SOURCE and DRAIN pins as close as possible
to the MOSFET source and drain pins. Keep the traces to
the MOSFET wide and short to minimize resistive losses
as shown in Figure 16 and Figure 17. Place surge suppressors and necessary transient protection components
close to the LT8672 using short lead lengths. Keep more
than minimum distance from GATE traces to other nodes
to prevent leakage that could turn the MOSFET on. Only
SOURCE and DRAIN traces are allowed to run beside GATE
traces. Use no-clean flux to minimize PCB contamination.
Note that the integrated boost regulator causes switched
currents to flow in CAUX and COUT and in the pins AUX,
AUXSW, and GND. The loops formed by CAUX and COUT
should be minimized by placing these capacitors as close
as possible to the LT8672 as shown in Figure 16 and Figure 17. COUT can be split into two capacitors COUT1 (close
to the LT8672) and COUT2 (further away), provided that
COUT1 has a capacitance of at least 1µF.
