Product details
Overview
LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 42-V input, 3-A synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator in HSOP-8 package with 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 12–42 V inputs to stable 5 V for microcontroller cores and peripheral logic.
For engineers reviewing the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB pinout, LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB application, or LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.5–42 V wide VIN range, internal voltage-mode compensation, thermal shutdown protection, precision enable threshold (1.6 V typ), and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB implements a voltage-mode PWM controller with input voltage feedforward to stabilize loop gain across input variations, enabling optimized transient response without external compensation. Its internal type III compensation network is pre-tuned for fixed 5 V output operation.
It integrates a 120 mΩ N-channel MOSFET switch (PFM package), supports adjustable switching frequency (200–1000 kHz) via RT/SYNC pin, and features built-in soft-start (500 µs), precision enable with 0.6 V hysteresis, and self-synchronization capability for multi-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 42 V - supports direct connection to 12 V, 24 V, and 42 V industrial/automotive rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±1.5% - eliminates external feedback resistors and reduces BOM count for standard logic rail generation. |
| Max Output Current | 3 A continuous - sufficient for powering ARM Cortex-M7 microcontrollers, FPGAs I/O banks, and sensor interfaces. |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz default - enables compact 2.2 µH inductors and 22 µF ceramic output capacitors while maintaining >90% efficiency at full load. |
| Quiescent Current | 3.4 mA typical - ensures low no-load power loss in always-on subsystems such as CAN transceivers or real-time clocks. |
| Enable Threshold | 1.6 V typical with 0.6 V hysteresis - allows precise power sequencing using simple resistor dividers from upstream supplies. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control cabinet environments. |
Pinout & Package
LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB uses the HSOP-8 (PowerPAD™) package (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm) with exposed thermal pad connected to GND for enhanced heat dissipation. RθJA = 60°C/W with 1 in² copper pour.
| 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 EMI and ringing. |
| 2 VIN | Input Supply | Primary power input (4.5–42 V); must be decoupled with ≥10 µF ceramic capacitor near pin. |
| 3 BOOT | Bootstrap Supply | Connects to SW and external 10 nF ceramic capacitor; powers high-side gate driver; requires short, wide traces. |
| 4 GND | Power Ground | System ground return; tied to exposed thermal pad; forms low-impedance path for switch current and thermal conduction. |
| 5 RT/SYNC | Oscillator Control | Configures frequency mode: floating = 500 kHz, resistor-to-GND = 200–1000 kHz, external clock = synchronization. |
| 6 FB | Feedback Input | Internally tied to 5.0 V reference; not used in fixed-output variant - leave unconnected per datasheet guidance. |
| 7 EN | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; 1.6 V threshold enables startup; 25 µA shutdown current enables ultra-low-power standby. |
| 8 NC | No Connect | Not electrically bonded; may be used as thermal relief pad but must remain unconnected in circuit. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internally Compensated Voltage Mode Control | Eliminates need for external compensation components - reduces design cycle time and layout sensitivity for 5 V output. |
| Stable With Low-ESR Ceramic Capacitors | Enables use of compact, high-reliability X7R/X5R MLCCs instead of bulkier aluminum or tantalum capacitors. |
| Integrated Bootstrap Diode | Removes external Schottky diode requirement - simplifies bill of materials and improves reliability in high-temp operation. |
| Adjustable Switching Frequency & Synchronization | Supports EMI reduction via frequency dithering or system-level clock alignment across multiple rails without added ICs. |
| Integrated Soft-Start (500 µs) | Prevents inrush current during power-up - avoids tripping upstream fuses or causing bus droop in multi-rail systems. |
| Precision Enable with UVLO | Allows robust power sequencing and battery discharge prevention via programmable turn-on/off thresholds. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM22671QWJT-5.0/NOPB | Automotive-grade (AEC-Q100 Grade 1), identical electrical specs, TO-263-7 package with higher thermal performance (RθJA = 22°C/W). | Required for under-hood or safety-critical automotive modules where extended temperature validation is mandated. | Select when automotive qualification, higher ambient temperature margin, or improved thermal handling is required over HSOP-8. |
| TPS54340DDAR | 42 V, 3.5 A, adjustable output; requires external feedback resistors; 100% duty-cycle capability; no integrated bootstrap diode. | Suitable for designs needing variable output or 100% duty-cycle operation (e.g., low-dropout scenarios), but increases component count. | Choose if output voltage flexibility or 100% duty-cycle operation is needed - otherwise LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB offers lower BOM cost and simpler layout. |
Compared with LM22671QWJT-5.0/NOPB, the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB trades automotive qualification and thermal performance for smaller footprint and lower cost in industrial applications; versus TPS54340DDAR, it provides fixed 5 V output with fewer external components but lacks 100% duty-cycle support.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB?
The LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 43 V, with recommended operating range from 4.5 V to 42 V. Exceeding 42 V continuously risks violating safe operating area limits and may trigger thermal shutdown or permanent damage. The device is commonly used with 24 V and 42 V industrial rails, and its robust input stage tolerates transient spikes up to 43 V for short durations.
Does the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB require external feedback resistors to set the output voltage?
No - the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB is the fixed 5.0 V output variant; its internal feedback divider is factory-trimmed to deliver 5.0 V ±1.5% without any external resistors. The FB pin is internally connected to the reference and must be left unconnected in this version, unlike the adjustable LM22670-ADJ variant which requires external resistor networks.
Can the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB synchronize its switching frequency to an external clock source?
Yes - the LM22670QTJ-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 between 500 kHz and 1 MHz, the device locks to the external clock on the rising edge. This feature enables EMI reduction and timing coordination across multiple regulators in dense PCB layouts.
What thermal management considerations apply to the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB in HSOP-8 package?
The LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB in HSOP-8 (QTJ) has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 60°C/W with 1 in² of 2-oz copper. To maintain <125°C junction temperature at 3 A load, ensure the exposed thermal pad is soldered to a solid GND plane with ≥4 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter). Avoid routing signals under the pad and verify board-level thermal performance using TI's WEBENCH® thermal simulation tool.
Is the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB pin-compatible with other members of the LM22670 family?
Yes - the LM22670QTJ-5.0/NOPB shares identical pinout and package dimensions with LM22670-ADJ variants in HSOP-8 (QTJ) packaging. All share the same SW/VIN/BOOT/GND/RT-SYNC/EN pin assignments; only the FB pin function differs (internal reference vs. external divider input). This enables drop-in replacement in fixed-output designs without layout changes.
