Product details
Overview
LM22673TJE-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 V or 24 V input to stable 5 V for microcontroller cores and peripheral logic.
For engineers reviewing the LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB pinout, LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB application, or LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (4.5–42 V), thermal performance in HSOP-8 exposed-pad package, adjustable current limit via IADJ pin, soft-start timing control, and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB implements voltage-mode PWM control with input voltage feedforward to stabilize loop gain across wide VIN variations. Its internal Type III compensation is optimized for fixed 5 V output, eliminating external compensation components.
It integrates a 120 mΩ N-channel MOSFET switch and uses a bootstrap capacitor between BOOT and SW pins to drive the high-side gate. Minimum on-time (100 ns) and off-time (200 ns) constraints define practical VIN/VOUT conversion ratios and require ≥5 mA minimum load for reliable boot-cap recharge.
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 industrial rails and automotive battery transients. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±1.5% - eliminates external feedback divider; enables plug-and-play 5 V supply for USB peripherals or logic interfaces. |
| Max Output Current | 3 A - sustains full load without derating at TJ ≤ 125°C with proper PCB copper area under exposed pad. |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz - enables compact 2.2 µH–4.7 µH inductors and <10 µF ceramic output capacitance. |
| RDS(ON) | 120 mΩ (PFM package) - defines conduction loss at 3 A; contributes to >90% peak efficiency at mid-load. |
| Operating Junction Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for extended industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |
| Soft-Start Time | Adjustable via SS pin capacitor - default ~500 µs; extended to >10 ms with 1 µF external cap for inrush control. |
Pinout & Package
LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB is housed in an HSOP-8 PowerPAD package (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm) with exposed thermal pad soldered to PCB ground plane for enhanced thermal dissipation (RθJA = 60°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 2) | Power Input | Primary DC input (4.5–42 V); requires local 10 µF ceramic bypass near pin. |
| SW (Pin 1) | Switch Node | Drives external inductor; swings from GND to VIN; requires tight layout to minimize EMI. |
| BOOT (Pin 3) | Bootstrap Supply | Connects to SW via 10 nF ceramic capacitor; supplies gate drive for internal high-side MOSFET. |
| FB (Pin 6) | Feedback Input | Internally connected to 5 V reference; tied directly to output for fixed 5 V operation. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Ground Reference | Analog and power ground; must be low-impedance connection to PCB ground plane. |
| SS (Pin 7) | Soft-Start Control | Sinks 50 µA current; RC time constant sets output ramp rate during startup. |
| IADJ (Pin 5) | Current Limit Adjust | Resistor-to-GND sets peak switch current from default 4.2 A down to ~1.5 A. |
| Exposed Pad | Thermal & Electrical Ground | Mandatory solder connection to PCB ground pour; primary path for heat removal. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Bootstrap Diode | Eliminates external bootstrap diode; reduces BOM count and layout area in buck topology. |
| Adjustable Current Limit | Single resistor from IADJ to GND scales peak switch current-enables design margining and smaller magnetics. |
| Stable with Ceramic Capacitors | No ESR requirement; supports low-profile, high-reliability 10–22 µF X5R/X7R MLCCs at output. |
| UVLO with Hysteresis | Turns on at 4.3 V, shuts down at 3.9 V-prevents erratic operation during brownout or cold-cranking. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at 150°C junction temperature; auto-restarts after cooldown to ~135°C-protects against sustained overload. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Module | Telecom Line Card Power |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Regulating 24 V backplane to clean 5 V for isolated digital I/O drivers and ADC references. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary non-isolated buck converter delivering regulated 5 V rail with fast transient response to step-load changes.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main system power supply with integrated protection against reverse polarity, overvoltage, and thermal fault. Use Value: AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (–40°C to +125°C) and 42 V absolute max rating ensure robustness in automotive environments. | Use Scenario: Powering ARM Cortex-M based sensor fusion node with BLE radio, IMU, and environmental sensors from single-cell Li-ion or 12 V wall adapter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-efficiency point-of-load regulator enabling >90% efficiency at 100 mA–2 A load range. Use Value: Low quiescent current (3.4 mA typical) extends battery life; ceramic-capacitor stability simplifies layout in space-constrained PCBs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM22674TJE-5.0/NOPB | Same pinout, 500 kHz, but rated for 4 A output and higher RDS(ON) tolerance (100 mΩ SO vs 120 mΩ PFM). | Supports higher continuous load; better suited for 3.5–4 A applications with thermal headroom. | Select when >3 A sustained current or lower thermal resistance (SO PowerPAD) is required. |
| TPS54340DDAR | 42 V, 3.5 A, 500 kHz; external compensation; no integrated bootstrap diode; requires external bootstrap diode. | Greater loop tuning flexibility but increased component count; wider VIN range (4.5–42 V same). | Choose when custom compensation or tighter output ripple spec demands external loop control. |
Compared with LM22674TJE-5.0/NOPB, the LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB offers identical functionality at lower cost and smaller thermal pad, while TPS54340DDAR trades integration for design flexibility-neither is pin-compatible, requiring layout revision.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB?
The LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB has an absolute maximum input voltage of 43 V, with recommended operating range from 4.5 V to 42 V. Exceeding 42 V continuously risks violating safe operating area limits, especially under high ambient temperature or heavy load conditions where internal power dissipation increases.
Does LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB require an external feedback resistor divider?
No. The LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB features a factory-trimmed internal feedback network set for 5.0 V output. The FB pin is internally connected to this reference and must be tied directly to the output node-no external resistors are needed or permitted for basic operation.
How is current limit adjusted on LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB?
Current limit is adjusted by connecting a resistor between the IADJ pin and GND. With no resistor, the default peak switch current is 4.2 A (typ). A 10 kΩ resistor sets ~2.5 A, and a 100 kΩ resistor reduces it to ~1.5 A. Accuracy degrades to ±35%/–25% when adjusted, per datasheet specifications.
What thermal pad requirements apply to LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB?
The exposed thermal pad of LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB must be soldered to a solid copper ground plane with ≥4 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter) connecting to inner/ground layers. TI specifies RθJA = 60°C/W for HSOP-8; inadequate pad area or via count will cause junction temperature to exceed 125°C at full 3 A load.
Can LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB operate with ceramic output capacitors only?
Yes. LM22673TJE-5.0/NOPB is explicitly characterized and stabilized for use with low-ESR ceramic capacitors (e.g., 10–22 µF X5R/X7R). Unlike older controllers, it does not require added ESR for phase margin-enabling smaller, more reliable, and lower-profile output filtering.
