Product details
Overview
LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 42 V, 3 A adjustable-output synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator in HSOP-8 PowerPAD package, featuring voltage-mode PWM control, integrated 120 mΩ N-channel MOSFET switch, 500 kHz fixed switching frequency, and ±1.5% feedback reference accuracy (1.285 V typ). It delivers high efficiency (>90%) in industrial power rails converting 24 V or 12 V inputs to sub-5 V logic supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (4.5–42 V), thermal performance with exposed pad, internal compensation for ADJ versions, soft-start timing (500 µs), and enable threshold hysteresis (0.6 V).
Technical Context
The LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB implements a voltage-mode PWM architecture with input voltage feedforward to stabilize loop gain across wide VIN variations. 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 integrates a bootstrap gate driver with internal diode, requiring only an external 10 nF ceramic capacitor between BOOT and SW pins. Minimum on-time (100 ns) and off-time (200 ns) constrain duty-cycle limits, defining practical VIN/VOUT conversion ratios - e.g., supporting 24 V-to-3.3 V conversion at full load while maintaining regulation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 42 V - supports direct connection to 24 V industrial rails and 12 V automotive systems without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 3 A continuous - sustains full load under worst-case thermal conditions with proper PCB copper area on exposed pad. |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz ±20% - enables compact 2.2 µH–10 µH inductors and reduces output ripple without compromising transient response. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.285 V ±1.5% - sets minimum adjustable output; used with external resistor divider to configure VOUT from 1.285 V to >5 V. |
| RDS(ON) | 120 mΩ (typ) - determines conduction loss at 3 A; contributes to >90% peak efficiency at mid-load with proper layout. |
| Soft-Start Time | 500 µs (typ) - prevents inrush current during power-up; internally fixed and not user-adjustable. |
| Enable Threshold | 1.6 V (falling), 2.2 V (rising) with 0.6 V hysteresis - allows precise sequencing with resistor dividers from other supply rails. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and automotive environments; thermal shutdown triggers at 150°C. |
Pinout & Package
LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB uses the HSOP-8 PowerPAD (DDA) package with 4.89 mm × 3.90 mm body and thermally enhanced exposed pad soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal dissipation (RθJA = 60°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SW) | Switch node | Drives external inductor; swings from GND to VIN; requires low-inductance routing to minimize EMI and ringing. |
| 2 (VIN) | Main input supply | Accepts 4.5–42 V; must be decoupled with ≥10 µF ceramic capacitor near pin to suppress high-frequency noise. |
| 3 (BOOT) | Bootstrap supply | Connects to SW via 10 nF ceramic capacitor; powers high-side gate driver; requires short, wide traces. |
| 4 (GND) | System ground | Analog and power ground reference; tied directly to exposed pad; forms return path for FB, EN, and internal circuits. |
| 5 (FB) | Feedback input | High-impedance (230 nA bias) node sensing output voltage via resistor divider; placement critical for noise immunity. |
| 6 (EN) | Enable control | Logic-level input with precision UVLO; pulls up internally (6 µA); floats high to enable; <1.6 V disables regulator. |
| 7 (NC) | No connect | Not bonded internally; may serve as thermal conductor; must remain unconnected or grounded per layout guidelines. |
| 8 (NC) | No connect | Not bonded internally; electrically isolated; used for thermal conduction only; no circuit connection required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internally compensated voltage-mode control | Eliminates need for external compensation network; simplifies design for 1.285 V–5 V outputs using standard ceramic output caps. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM22678TJE-ADJ/NOPB | Same pinout, 500 kHz, but rated for 5 A output and 100 mΩ RDS(ON); higher thermal resistance (RθJA = 65°C/W). | Used where higher current headroom or margin is required; suitable for same PCB footprint with minor thermal review. | Select when 3 A margin is insufficient or future-proofing for higher loads is needed; verify thermal performance with increased copper area. |
| TPS54340DDAR | 42 V, 3.5 A, 500 kHz, but uses current-mode control and requires external compensation; no integrated bootstrap diode. | Preferred where tighter load transient response or adjustable frequency is required; demands more design effort for loop stability. | Choose when dynamic performance outweighs simplicity; avoid if minimizing design cycle time and component count is critical. |
Compared with LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB, LM22678TJE-ADJ/NOPB offers higher current capability in identical packaging but slightly worse thermal performance, while TPS54340DDAR trades integration for greater control flexibility - making LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB optimal for rapid, robust 3 A buck designs with minimal external parts.

FAQ
What is the minimum output voltage achievable with LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB has a nominal feedback reference voltage of 1.285 V with ±1.5% accuracy over temperature. This sets the lowest practical output voltage when the FB pin is connected directly to VOUT (i.e., no divider). Configurations below 1.285 V are not supported, as the internal error amplifier cannot regulate below its reference threshold. The LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB datasheet confirms this value applies across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
Does LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB require an external bootstrap diode?
No, LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB integrates a bootstrap diode internally, eliminating the need for an external component. The BOOT pin connects directly to the SW node through an external 10 nF ceramic capacitor, and the internal diode ensures proper charging of that capacitor during each switching cycle. This integration reduces bill-of-materials count and improves reliability compared to controllers requiring discrete bootstrap solutions.
Can LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB operate with ceramic output capacitors only?
Yes, LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB is explicitly characterized and stabilized for use with low-ESR ceramic capacitors - a key feature highlighted in its datasheet. Unlike many older regulators requiring tantalum or electrolytic capacitors for phase margin, its internal Type III compensation works reliably with X7R/X5R MLCCs as small as 22 µF, enabling compact, high-reliability designs without lifetime derating concerns.
What is the purpose of the two NC pins on LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB?
The two NC (no-connect) pins on LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB - pins 7 and 8 in the HSOP-8 PowerPAD package - are not electrically bonded to the die. They serve solely as thermal conduction paths from the package body to the PCB. TI's datasheet specifies they may be left floating or connected to GND; grounding them improves thermal performance but is not required for electrical functionality. Their presence enhances heat dissipation without adding circuit complexity.
How does the enable function behave during input undervoltage conditions?
The LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB features dual-stage input protection: an internal UVLO (4.3 V rising, 3.9 V falling) and a precision enable pin (1.6 V falling threshold, 0.6 V hysteresis). When VIN drops below 3.9 V, the internal UVLO forces shutdown regardless of EN state. However, for tighter control - such as preventing battery deep discharge - designers can use the EN pin with an external resistor divider to disable the LM22676QTJE-ADJ/NOPB at a custom threshold above the internal UVLO point.
