Product details
Overview
LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 42-V input, 5-A synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator with fixed 5.0-V output, 500-kHz switching frequency, ±1.5% feedback reference accuracy, and integrated 100-mΩ N-channel MOSFET. It operates from –40°C to 125°C and delivers >90% efficiency in industrial power conversion applications.
For engineers reviewing the LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB pinout, LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB application, or LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB equivalent, this device supports high-vin distributed power systems requiring stable 5-V rail generation with minimal external components, thermal robustness, and precision enable control.
Technical Context
The LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB implements voltage-mode PWM control with input voltage feedforward for loop gain stabilization across wide VIN ranges. Its internal Type III compensation eliminates external compensation networks and is optimized for fixed 5-V operation.
It integrates a bootstrap diode, soft-start (500 µs typical), thermal shutdown (150°C trip), current limiting (6.0–8.4 A), and precision enable with 1.6-V threshold and 0.6-V hysteresis - enabling reliable sequencing and undervoltage lockout via external resistor divider.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 42 V - supports wide-input industrial and automotive battery-fed systems without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±1.5% - eliminates external feedback divider; enables direct replacement of linear regulators in 5-V logic rails. |
| Max Output Current | 5 A continuous - sustains full load under worst-case thermal conditions with proper PCB copper area. |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz ±20% - balances small external inductor/capacitor size with EMI and transient response requirements. |
| RDS(ON) | 100 mΩ typical - reduces conduction loss and improves efficiency at high load currents. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to 125°C - qualified for extended industrial and automotive-grade environments (AEC-Q100 Grade 1). |
| Quiescent Current | 3.4 mA typical - ensures low no-load power loss in always-on subsystems. |
| Standby Current | 25 µA typical - enables ultra-low-power shutdown mode for system-level energy management. |
Pinout & Package
LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB uses the TO-263-7 (PFM) package with 10.16 mm × 9.85 mm body size and thermally enhanced exposed pad (EP) tied to GND for PCB heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW | Switch node | Drives external inductor; swings between ~0 V and VIN during PWM operation. |
| VIN | Input supply | Primary power input (4.5–42 V); connects to bulk capacitor and feeds internal LDO for bias. |
| GND | Power ground | System return path for switch, controller, and feedback; must be low-impedance connection to EP. |
| BOOT | Bootstrap supply | Provides gate drive voltage for high-side MOSFET via external 10-nF ceramic capacitor to SW. |
| FB | Feedback input | Internally connected to 5-V reference; shorted directly to VOUT for fixed-output configuration. |
| EN | Enable control | Logic-level input (1.6-V threshold, 0.6-V hysteresis); pulls up internally to enable default operation. |
| NC | No-connect | Not electrically bonded; serves as thermal conductor only - must not be routed or connected. |
| EP | Exposed pad | Thermal and electrical ground; requires solid solder connection to ≥1 in² PCB copper pour. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internally compensated voltage-mode control | Eliminates external compensation network - simplifies design and improves consistency across production units. |
| Integrated bootstrap diode | Removes need for external bootstrap diode - reduces BOM count and layout complexity while maintaining gate drive reliability. |
| Stable with low-ESR ceramic capacitors | Enables use of compact, high-reliability MLCCs instead of electrolytics - improves lifetime and reduces footprint. |
| Precision enable with UVLO support | Allows controlled power sequencing and configurable undervoltage lockout using external resistor divider on EN pin. |
| Built-in soft-start (500 µs) | Prevents inrush current and output overshoot during startup - avoids stress on downstream circuitry and input source. |
| Thermal shutdown + current limit protection | Provides autonomous fault recovery under overload or poor heatsinking - prevents permanent damage without external circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM22678TJ-5.0/NOPB | Same electrical specs but TO-220-7 package (no exposed pad); higher RθJA (35°C/W vs 22°C/W). | Limited to lower ambient temperatures or reduced load current due to inferior thermal performance. | Select when TO-220 mounting is required and thermal margin allows ≤3.5 A continuous output. |
| LM61460QWRVRRQ1 | 3–36-V input, 6-A output, 2.1-MHz switching, lower IQ (26 µA), and integrated EMI filters. | Higher frequency enables smaller magnetics; improved light-load efficiency and EMI compliance for noise-sensitive systems. | Choose for next-gen designs prioritizing size, EMI, and ultra-low standby power - requires PCB redesign and new magnetics. |
Compared with LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB, the LM22678TJ-5.0/NOPB offers identical regulation but requires greater thermal derating, while the LM61460QWRVRRQ1 provides higher integration and efficiency at the cost of input voltage range reduction and layout rework.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB?
The absolute maximum input voltage for LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB is 43 V, but the recommended operating range is 4.5 V to 42 V. Operation above 42 V risks exceeding safe operating area limits and may trigger overvoltage protection or cause irreversible damage. Always maintain at least 1-V margin below 43 V in production designs.
Does LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB require an external feedback resistor divider?
No, LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB has an internal 5.0-V feedback reference and does not require an external resistor divider. The FB pin must be connected directly to the output capacitor or VOUT net. Using an external divider will disrupt regulation and cause output voltage error.
How is thermal performance managed on LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB?
LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB relies on its exposed pad (EP) soldered to ≥1 in² of PCB copper for thermal conduction. With proper layout, its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 22°C/W. Thermal shutdown activates at ~150°C, and the device resumes operation after cooling to ~135°C.
Can LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB operate in dropout mode?
No, LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB is a buck-only regulator and cannot regulate when VIN falls below the minimum required for duty-cycle headroom. At 5-V output, dropout occurs below ~6.5 V input depending on load and temperature. Below 4.5 V, UVLO disables operation entirely.
Is LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, LM22678QTJ-5.0/NOPB is the automotive-grade variant (denoted by "Q" suffix) and is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified for operation from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature, making it suitable for under-hood and infotainment power applications.
