Product details
Overview
LM10524TMX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a triple-output synchronous buck PMU for SSD and flash controller SoC power delivery, featuring programmable 1.1–3.6V/1.6A (Buck 1), 1.1–3.6V/1A (Buck 2), and 0.7–1.95V/2.5A (Buck 3) regulators with integrated FETs, 2MHz switching, ±3% feedback accuracy, and SPI-controlled voltage sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the LM10524TMX/NOPB datasheet, LM10524TMX/NOPB pinout, LM10524TMX/NOPB application, or LM10524TMX/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context on phase-shifted buck operation, DEVSLP-controlled sleep mode, PFM/PWM efficiency optimization, and micro SMD package integration for high-density SSD power rails.
Technical Context
The LM10524TMX/NOPB integrates three independent synchronous buck regulators sharing a single 3.3–5.5V input rail, each with dedicated power grounds (GND_B1/B2/B3), feedback inputs (FB_B1/B2/B3), and switching nodes (SW_B1/B2/B3). Phase shifting between regulators reduces input current ripple and minimizes required input capacitance.
It employs an SPI interface (SPI_CS/SPI_CLK/SPI_DI/SPI_DO) to configure output voltages in 50mV (Buck 1/2) or 10mV (Buck 3) steps, enable/disable individual rails, force PWM mode, and program comparator thresholds (2.0–4.0V). DEVSLP and DEVSLP_CTRL pins coordinate deep-sleep entry/exit with host SSD controller coordination via POWERUP_MODE.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
LM10524TMX/NOPB uses a 46-bump micro SMD package (0.4 mm pitch, 2.815 mm × 3.215 mm) with exposed thermal pad. Pin functions are validated per TI SNVS986A Rev A (Jan 2014).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN, VIN_IO, VIN_B1–B3 | Power Inputs | Dedicated input rails per regulator; VIN_IO powers digital logic; VIN_Bx feed respective PFET stages |
| SW_B1–B3 | Switching Nodes | Connect directly to external inductors; multiple pins per rail provide low-inductance routing paths |

| SPI_CS/CLK/DI/DO | Digital Interface | 4-wire SPI enables full register access for voltage, enable, mode, and comparator configuration |
| DEVSLP, DEVSLP_CTRL | Sleep Control | Active-high DEVSLP initiates coordinated shutdown; DEVSLP_CTRL signals active sleep state to host |
| PWR_OK, IRQ | Status Outputs | PWR_OK asserts after all rails reach regulation (≤3.5 ms startup); IRQ signals comparator threshold events |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Phase-shifted buck operation | Reduces input ripple by >50%, allowing smaller input capacitors (e.g., 4.7 µF instead of 22 µF) |

FAQ
What is the primary application target for the LM10524TMX/NOPB?
The LM10524TMX/NOPB is engineered for solid-state drive (SSD) controller power management, delivering three independently programmable buck outputs to ASIC/SoC domains including core, I/O, and NAND interface rails. Its DEVSLP coordination, fast startup (<3.5 ms), and active discharge features align precisely with NVMe and SATA SSD power state requirements. LM10524TMX/NOPB replaces multi-chip power solutions in space-constrained SSD modules.
Does the LM10524TMX/NOPB support both PWM and PFM modes?
Yes, the LM10524TMX/NOPB automatically transitions between PWM and PFM modes based on load conditions to maximize efficiency across the full operating range. PFM mode activates at light loads (e.g., <10 mA), sustaining >85% efficiency, while PWM ensures tight regulation and low ripple at full load. Mode selection is transparent and does not require SPI intervention. LM10524TMX/NOPB maintains this behavior across all three buck regulators.
How is voltage sequencing controlled on the LM10524TMX/NOPB?
Voltage sequencing on the LM10524TMX/NOPB is factory-programmed using internal registers and can be modified via SPI commands. Startup order (e.g., Buck 3 → Buck 2 → Buck 1), inter-rail delays, and PWR_OK assertion timing are configurable. The POWERUP_MODE pin provides hardware handshaking with the SSD host to gate final sequencing steps. LM10524TMX/NOPB achieves full rail regulation within 3.5 ms and asserts PWR_OK only after all enabled outputs stabilize.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the LM10524TMX/NOPB use?
The LM10524TMX/NOPB uses a 46-bump micro SMD package measuring 2.815 mm × 3.215 mm with 0.4 mm pitch and an exposed thermal pad. Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) is 40°C/W under typical PCB layout conditions. Thermal shutdown engages at +140°C and releases at +120°C, protecting against sustained overload. LM10524TMX/NOPB operates across –30°C to +85°C ambient temperature with junction limits up to +125°C.
Can the LM10524TMX/NOPB operate with a single 3.3V input supply?
Yes, the LM10524TMX/NOPB supports input voltages from 3.3V to 5.5V, making it fully compatible with 3.3V-only SSD host supplies. Each buck regulator requires its respective VIN_Bx input to be ≥ VOUT + 1.0V for stable operation - e.g., Buck 3 (0.7–1.95V) functions correctly with 3.3V input. Input decoupling (≥4.7 µF per rail) and proper ground partitioning are required per TI's recommended layout. LM10524TMX/NOPB maintains >90% peak efficiency at 3.3V input across all three channels.
