Product details
Overview
LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 42-V input, 3-A synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator in an HSOP-8 PowerPAD™ package, delivering a fixed 5.0 V output with ±1.5% feedback reference accuracy, 500 kHz default switching frequency, and integrated bootstrap diode. It operates across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and supports industrial control, telecom power conversion, and embedded systems requiring stable 5-V rails from 12-V or 24-V inputs.
For engineers reviewing the LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB pinout, LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB application, or LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include its 4.5–42 V input range, internal voltage-mode compensation, thermal shutdown protection, soft-start timing (500 µs), and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB implements a voltage-mode PWM controller with input voltage feedforward for loop gain stabilization, enabling robust transient response across wide VIN/VOUT ratios. Its internal Type III compensation is optimized for fixed 5-V output configurations and eliminates external compensation components.
It integrates a 120-mΩ N-channel MOSFET switch (PFM package), precision enable input with 1.6 V threshold and 0.6 V hysteresis, and RT/SYNC pin supporting 200 kHz–1 MHz adjustable frequency or external synchronization-though frequency adjustment and sync cannot operate simultaneously.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 42 V - supports direct regulation from 12-V, 24-V, and 42-V industrial/automotive rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±1.5% - eliminates external feedback divider, simplifying layout and improving accuracy over temperature. |
| Max Output Current | 3 A - sustained load capability enabled by 120-mΩ internal high-side MOSFET and exposed thermal pad. |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz (default), adjustable 200 kHz–1 MHz - balances efficiency, EMI, and external component size; sync-capable for multi-rail coherence. |
| Quiescent Current | 3.4 mA (active), 25 µA (shutdown) - enables low-power standby modes in battery-backed or always-on systems. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood environments without derating. |
| Soft-Start Time | 500 µs (fixed) - prevents inrush current and output overshoot during power-up without external timing components. |
Pinout & Package
LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB uses the HSOP-8 PowerPAD™ package (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm) with exposed thermal pad connected to GND for enhanced thermal dissipation (RθJA = 60°C/W on 1-in² copper).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SW | Switch Node | Drives external inductor; swings from ~0 V to VIN; requires low-inductance layout to minimize ringing and EMI. |
| 2 VIN | Input Supply | Primary power input (4.5–42 V); decoupling capacitor must be placed adjacent to this pin and GND. |
| 3 BOOT | Bootstrap Supply | Connects to SW via 10-nF ceramic capacitor; supplies gate drive for internal high-side MOSFET. |
| 4 GND | Power Ground | System ground return; connects internally to exposed thermal pad; must be solidly tied to PCB ground plane. |
| 5 RT/SYNC | Oscillator Control | Configures frequency mode: floating = 500 kHz, resistor-to-GND = adjustable, external clock = sync; latched at startup. |
| 6 FB | Feedback Input | Internally tied to 5.0 V reference; not used in -5.0 variant - pin left unconnected per datasheet. |
| 7 EN | Enable Control | Logic-level ON/OFF control; 1.6 V threshold with 0.6 V hysteresis; internal 6-µA pullup allows direct VIN connection via 470-kΩ resistor. |
| 8 NC | No Connect | Not electrically bonded; no internal connection - must remain unconnected and unpopulated on PCB. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Bootstrap Diode | Eliminates external bootstrap diode, reducing BOM count and layout complexity while ensuring reliable high-side gate drive. |
| Internally Compensated Loop | Removes need for external compensation network - simplifies design, improves consistency, and accelerates time-to-test. |
| Stable with Ceramic Capacitors | Supports low-ESR ceramic output caps (no electrolytic required), enabling smaller footprint, longer lifetime, and better ripple performance. |
| Precision Enable with UVLO | Enables controlled power sequencing and system-level undervoltage lockout using external resistor divider or direct VIN tie. |
| Thermal Shutdown & Current Limit | Protects against overload and overheating: thermal cutoff at 150°C and peak current limit of 3.4–5.3 A depending on temp. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM22671MRE-5.0/NOPB | Same architecture but TO-263-7 package (10.16 mm × 9.85 mm); higher RθJA (22°C/W with 1-in² copper) and 100-mΩ MOSFET. | Better thermal performance at high ambient; suited for higher continuous loads or less aggressive airflow. | Select when board space permits larger package and thermal margin is prioritized over footprint. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB?
The absolute maximum input voltage for LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB is 43 V, with recommended operating range from 4.5 V to 42 V. Operation beyond 42 V risks permanent damage, and the device incorporates internal undervoltage lockout (UVLO) that disables regulation below ~3.9 V to prevent unstable startup.
Does LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB require external compensation components?
No, LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB features fully internal Type III loop compensation optimized for fixed 5-V output. This eliminates external resistors and capacitors typically needed for stability tuning, reducing design risk and component count while maintaining robust performance across temperature and load.
Can LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB synchronize to an external clock signal?
Yes, LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB supports external synchronization via the RT/SYNC pin. When driven with a clean square wave between 1.75 V and 3.5 V at 50% duty cycle and frequency >500 kHz (up to 1 MHz), it locks to the rising edge and maintains phase coherence - useful for noise-sensitive multi-rail systems.
What is the purpose of the NC pin on LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB?
Pin 2 on LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB is designated NC (No Connect) and has no internal electrical connection. It must remain unconnected on the PCB and should not be routed or soldered. Its presence is mechanical - maintaining package symmetry and thermal pad alignment in the HSOP-8 PowerPAD™ footprint.
How does the soft-start function operate in LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB?
LM22670QMRE-5.0/NOPB implements a fixed 500 µs internal soft-start that ramps the output voltage linearly from 0 V to 5 V during power-up. This feature resets automatically upon shutdown or thermal fault, preventing inrush current, minimizing stress on input capacitors, and eliminating need for external soft-start circuitry.
