Product details
Overview
LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 42-V, 3-A synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator in HSOP-8 PowerPAD™ package, featuring fixed 5.0 V output, 500 kHz switching frequency, ±1.5% feedback reference accuracy, and integrated bootstrap diode. It delivers high efficiency (>90%) in industrial power rails converting 12–24 V inputs to stable 5 V for microcontroller cores and peripheral logic.
For engineers reviewing the LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB pinout, LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB application, or LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (4.5–42 V), thermal performance with exposed pad (RθJA = 60°C/W), precision enable threshold (1.6 V typ), and internal voltage-mode compensation eliminating external loop components.
Technical Context
The LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB implements a voltage-mode PWM controller with input voltage feedforward to stabilize loop gain across wide VIN variations. Its internal Type III compensation network is optimized for fixed 5 V output and stable operation with low-ESR ceramic capacitors.
It integrates a 120 mΩ N-channel MOSFET switch, bootstrap gate driver with dedicated BOOT pin, and precision enable with 0.6 V hysteresis. The device supports frequency adjustment (200–1000 kHz) or synchronization via RT/SYNC pin, while maintaining fixed 5 V regulation without external feedback resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±1.5% over –40°C to +125°C junction temperature |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 42 V - supports direct connection to 24 V industrial buses and automotive battery rails |
| Max Output Current | 3 A continuous - enabled by 120 mΩ internal high-side MOSFET and thermal pad dissipation |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz default - enables compact 2.2 µH inductors and 22 µF ceramic output capacitors |
| Quiescent Current | 3.4 mA typical at full load - balances light-load efficiency and transient response |
| Enable Threshold | 1.6 V typical falling edge - allows precise sequencing with resistor dividers from upstream supplies |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C junction - protects against sustained overload or inadequate PCB copper area |
Pinout & Package
LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB uses the HSOP-8 PowerPAD™ package (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm) with exposed thermal pad soldered to PCB ground plane for enhanced thermal performance (RθJA = 60°C/W with 1 in² copper).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SW | Switch node | Drives external inductor; swings from GND to VIN; requires low-inductance layout to minimize EMI |
| 2 VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 4.5–42 V; decoupling capacitor must be placed adjacent to this pin |
| 3 BOOT | Bootstrap supply | Connects to SW via 10 nF ceramic capacitor to generate gate drive voltage for internal high-side MOSFET |
| 4 GND | Power and signal ground | Common return path; connects to exposed pad for thermal and electrical integrity |
| 5 RT/SYNC | Oscillator control | Floating = 500 kHz; resistor-to-GND = adjustable frequency (200–1000 kHz); external clock = synchronization |
| 6 FB | Feedback input | Internally tied to 5 V reference; no external resistors required for fixed-output configuration |
| 7 EN | Enable control | Logic-level input; 1.6 V threshold enables startup; 25 µA shutdown current minimizes system standby loss |
| 8 NC | No connect | Not electrically bonded; may be used as thermal relief or left unconnected |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated bootstrap diode | Eliminates external diode, reducing BOM count and PCB footprint while ensuring reliable gate drive during startup |
| Internal loop compensation | Enables stable 5 V regulation with no external compensation components - reduces design cycle time and layout sensitivity |
| Stable with ceramic capacitors | Supports low-ESR MLCCs (≥22 µF) on output - avoids electrolytic capacitors and improves lifetime/reliability |
| Adjustable soft-start | Fixed 500 µs ramp time - prevents inrush current and output overshoot during power-up without external timing components |
| Precision enable with UVLO | Combines 1.6 V enable threshold and 4.3 V input UVLO - ensures clean power sequencing and prevents brownout operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM22671QMRX-5.0/NOPB | Same pinout and features but rated for 45 V max input (vs. 42 V); identical 3 A capability and 5 V output | Preferred for systems requiring margin above 42 V transients (e.g., 48 V telecom with >5 V surges) | Select when higher input voltage margin is needed without changing layout or firmware |
| TPS54340DDAR | 42 V input, 3.5 A, adjustable output only; requires external feedback resistors; no integrated bootstrap diode | Suitable where variable output or tighter load regulation (<±1%) is required, but adds BOM and layout complexity | Choose if design needs programmable output or lower quiescent current (4.5 µA shutdown), accepting added component count |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB?
The LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 43 V, with recommended operating range from 4.5 V to 42 V. This allows safe operation across 24 V industrial buses and automotive 12 V/24 V systems including load dump transients defined in ISO 7637-2. Exceeding 42 V continuously risks degradation, though brief transients up to 43 V are tolerated per datasheet limits.
Does LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB require external feedback resistors to set its 5 V output?
No, LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB does not require external feedback resistors. It is a fixed-output variant with internal resistor divider tied to the FB pin, delivering precisely 5.0 V ±1.5% over temperature and line. The FB pin is internally connected to the 5 V reference, eliminating external components and simplifying layout versus adjustable versions like LM22670-ADJ.
How is thermal performance managed in the HSOP-8 PowerPAD™ package of LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB?
LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB uses an exposed thermal pad in the HSOP-8 PowerPAD™ package that must be soldered to a PCB ground plane. With 1 in² of 2-oz copper, its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 60°C/W. Adequate copper area and thermal vias under the pad are essential to maintain ≤125°C junction temperature at 3 A load - critical for automotive and industrial reliability.
Can LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB synchronize its switching frequency to an external clock?
Yes, LM22670QMRX-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 external clock on the rising edge. If synchronization is lost, it automatically reverts to its internal 500 kHz oscillator - ensuring graceful fallback behavior.
What protection features are built into LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB?
LM22670QMRX-5.0/NOPB integrates thermal shutdown (150°C), cycle-by-cycle current limiting (5.3 A typical peak), and input undervoltage lockout (UVLO with 4.3 V turn-on threshold). It also features soft-start (500 µs) to limit inrush current and precision enable with hysteresis (0.6 V) for controlled sequencing - collectively enabling robust operation in unregulated input environments.
