Product details
Overview
LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 42-V, 1-A adjustable-output synchronous buck DC/DC regulator in an HSOP-8 PowerPAD package. It integrates a 200 mΩ N-channel MOSFET switch, supports input voltages from 4.5 V to 42 V, delivers output as low as 1.285 V via external feedback divider, and operates at a default 500 kHz switching frequency with ±1.5% reference accuracy - used in industrial power rails converting 24 V or 12 V to sub-5 V logic supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, key selection factors include its internally compensated voltage-mode control, adjustable soft-start via SS pin, RT/SYNC frequency tuning/synchronization capability, integrated bootstrap diode, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for automotive-grade thermal robustness (–40°C to +125°C).
Technical Context
The LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB implements a voltage-mode PWM controller with input voltage feedforward to stabilize loop gain across wide VIN ranges. Its internal Type III compensation network is optimized for output voltages ≤5 V, enabling stable operation with low-ESR ceramic capacitors without external compensation components.
It features precision enable with 1.6 V threshold and 0.6 V hysteresis, programmable soft-start via external capacitor on SS pin, and three RT/SYNC modes: internal 500 kHz oscillator, resistor-adjusted 200 kHz–1 MHz, or external synchronization - though frequency adjustment and sync cannot operate simultaneously.

Pinout & Package
LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB uses the HSOP-8 PowerPAD (MR) package (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm) with exposed thermal pad soldered to PCB ground for enhanced thermal dissipation (RθJA = 60°C/W with 1 in² copper).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BOOT | Bootstrap supply input | Provides gate drive voltage for internal high-side N-MOSFET; requires 10 nF ceramic capacitor between BOOT and SW. |
| EN | Enable control input | Logic-level enable with 1.6 V threshold and 0.6 V hysteresis; pulls up internally at ~6 µA for simple tie-high operation. |
| SW | Switch node output | Drives external inductor; swings from ~0 V to VIN; must be routed with minimal parasitic inductance. |
| RT/SYNC | Oscillator mode control | Selects internal 500 kHz, resistor-tuned (25 kΩ–200 kΩ), or external sync mode - latched at startup. |
| FB | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider from VOUT; regulates output by comparing against 1.285 V internal reference. |
| GND | Power and signal ground | Common return for all internal circuits; connects directly to exposed thermal pad for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| VIN | Main power input | Accepts 4.5–42 V; powers internal bias circuitry and high-side driver; requires local 10 µF ceramic input capacitor. |
| SS | Soft-start timing input | Controls ramp-up time via external capacitor; default internal soft-start is ~500 µs; extends linearly with CSS. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internally compensated voltage-mode control | Eliminates need for external compensation network - simplifies design and reduces BOM count for stable 1-A buck conversion. |
| Integrated bootstrap diode | Removes requirement for external bootstrap diode - reduces layout complexity and improves reliability in high-duty-cycle applications. |
| Adjustable soft-start via SS pin | Prevents inrush current and output overshoot by controlling VOUT ramp rate with single external capacitor (100 nF–1 µF). |
| Thermal shutdown & current limiting | Protects against sustained overload or ambient overheating; triggers at 150°C junction temp and limits peak switch current to 1.3 A (typ). |
| WEBENCH®-enabled design support | Enables full simulation, component selection, thermal analysis, and Build-It board generation directly from TI's online tool. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar adjustable-output buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM22670MRE-ADJ/NOPB | Same pinout, identical features, but rated for 4.5–42 V input and 3 A output - higher current capability with larger thermal footprint. | Used where >1 A load current or higher thermal margin is required; not drop-in due to different current limit and thermal design. | Select LM22670MRE-ADJ/NOPB only if load exceeds 1 A or ambient temperature exceeds 85°C with limited heatsinking. |
| TPS54202DRCT | 3–28 V input, 2 A, 500 kHz, integrated high-/low-side FETs; smaller 3 mm × 2 mm WSON package; no exposed thermal pad. | Better suited for space-constrained consumer or computing applications; lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and 42 V input capability. | Choose TPS54202DRCT when board area is critical and input voltage stays below 28 V; avoid in automotive or industrial 42 V environments. |
Compared with LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB, LM22670MRE-ADJ/NOPB offers higher current headroom at the cost of larger thermal mass, while TPS54202DRCT trades input voltage range and automotive qualification for compact packaging and dual-FET integration - making LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB optimal for rugged 1-A industrial and automotive buck conversion where 42 V tolerance and thermal reliability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the minimum output voltage supported by the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB supports a minimum output voltage of 1.285 V (typ), set by its internal feedback reference voltage. This value is specified with ±1.5% accuracy over temperature (–40°C to +125°C). To achieve this minimum, the FB pin must be connected directly to the output; any external resistor divider will raise the regulated output above 1.285 V proportionally. The LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB datasheet confirms this in Section 6.6 Electrical Characteristics under "Feedback Voltage" for the ADJ version.
Does the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB require an external bootstrap diode?
No, the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB integrates a bootstrap diode internally, eliminating the need for an external component. This is explicitly stated in the "Features" section of the datasheet and verified in the "Boot-Strap Supply" subsection (7.3.5), which notes that only a 10 nF ceramic capacitor between BOOT and SW is required. Using an external diode with the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB is unnecessary and may interfere with proper gate drive operation.
Can the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB synchronize to an external clock while also adjusting frequency with an RT resistor?
No, the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB cannot use frequency adjustment and external synchronization simultaneously. As documented in Section 7.3.3, the RT/SYNC pin operates in one of three mutually exclusive modes: floating (500 kHz internal oscillator), resistor-connected (200 kHz–1 MHz adjustment), or externally driven (synchronization). The mode is latched at startup based on RT/SYNC voltage level, and attempting both functions concurrently will result in undefined behavior or fallback to internal oscillator mode.
What thermal performance can be expected from the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB in HSOP-8 PowerPAD package?
The LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB in HSOP-8 PowerPAD (MR) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 60°C/W when mounted on 1 in² of PCB copper. This value assumes proper soldering of the exposed thermal pad to a solid GND plane. Actual thermal performance varies from 42°C/W (with aggressive copper pours) to 115°C/W (minimal copper), as noted in Section 6.5. For reliable 1-A operation at +125°C ambient, thermal design must ensure junction temperature remains ≤150°C - typically requiring ≥0.5 in² of dedicated thermal copper.
Is the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB pin-compatible with the LM22672-5.0 variant?
Yes, the LM22672QMRE-ADJ/NOPB is pin-compatible with the fixed-output LM22672-5.0 variants (e.g., LM22672MRE-5.0/NOPB), sharing identical HSOP-8 PowerPAD package, pinout, and functional pin assignments. The only difference lies in internal feedback configuration: the -ADJ version routes FB to an external divider, while the -5.0 version internally fixes FB to 5 V. No PCB layout change is needed when substituting between these versions, though external resistor networks must be adjusted accordingly.
