Product details
Overview
LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 42-V input, 5-A synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator in TO-263-7 (PFM) package, featuring voltage-mode PWM control, internal loop compensation, and adjustable output down to 1.285 V. It integrates a 100-mΩ N-channel MOSFET switch and supports industrial power conversion with >90% efficiency at full load.
For engineers reviewing the LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 500-kHz fixed switching frequency, ±1.5% feedback reference accuracy, adjustable current limit via IADJ pin, thermal shutdown at 150°C, and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB implements a voltage-mode PWM architecture with input voltage feedforward to stabilize loop gain across wide VIN ranges (4.5 V to 42 V). Its internal Type III compensation is optimized for output voltages ≤5 V, eliminating external compensation components.
It features a bootstrap gate driver for the integrated high-side MOSFET, requiring a 10-nF ceramic capacitor between BOOT and SW pins. Minimum on-time (100 ns) and off-time (200 ns) constrain duty-cycle limits, enabling stable operation down to 1.285 V output while supporting high VIN:VOUT ratios.
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 Current | Up to 5 A - delivers full rated load with internal 100-mΩ N-channel MOSFET and thermal shutdown at 150°C. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.285 V (typ), ±1.5% - enables precise adjustable output down to 1.285 V using external resistor divider on FB pin. |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz (±20%) - allows compact magnetics and input/output filtering; stable over –40°C to 125°C junction range. |
| Current Limit | 7.1 A (typ), adjustable via IADJ pin - programmable peak switch current using single external resistor (30–100 kΩ range). |
| Soft-Start Time | Adjustable via SS pin capacitor (100 nF–1 µF) - extends startup ramp to reduce inrush stress; default ~500 µs. |
| Quiescent Current | 3.4 mA (typ) - low standby draw suitable for always-on industrial subsystems. |
Pinout & Package
LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB uses the TO-263-7 (NDP/PFM) thermally enhanced package with exposed pad (EP), measuring 10.16 mm × 9.85 mm. The exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal performance and EMI reduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW | Switch Node Output | Drives external inductor; swings from GND to VIN; connects to cathode of Schottky catch diode. |
| VIN | Main Input Supply | Accepts 4.5–42 V; powers internal bias circuitry and high-side gate driver via bootstrap network. |
| BOOT | Bootstrap Capacitor Terminal | Connects to 10-nF ceramic cap between BOOT and SW; supplies floating gate drive for high-side MOSFET. |
| GND | Power Ground | System return path for input, output, and internal logic; ties to exposed pad for thermal conduction. |
| IADJ | Current Limit Adjust Input | Resistor-to-GND sets peak switch current (default 7.1 A); floating = factory default setting. |
| FB | Feedback Input | High-impedance (230 nA bias) node sensing output voltage divider; regulates VOUT to 1.285 V reference. |
| SS | Soft-Start Control | Capacitor-to-GND extends startup ramp time linearly (TSS ≈ 26 ms/µF); resets on UVLO or thermal shutdown. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internally compensated voltage-mode control | Eliminates external compensation network; simplifies design for 1.285–5 V outputs with guaranteed stability. |

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-ADJ/NOPB | Same pinout and package; lower 3-A output rating; identical 1.285-V reference and 500-kHz frequency. | Suitable for <3-A loads where thermal margin or cost reduction is prioritized over headroom. | Select when full 5-A capability is unnecessary and smaller solution size is acceptable. |
| LM61460PWRR | Higher efficiency (up to 96%), lower IQ (26 µA), PFM mode at light load, and improved EMI performance. | Preferred for battery-powered or noise-sensitive applications requiring ultra-low standby power and CISPR-25 compliance. | Choose for next-gen designs demanding higher efficiency, lower quiescent current, and reduced EMI without layout change. |
Compared with LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB, LM22678TJ-ADJ/NOPB offers reduced current capability but identical interface and compensation, while LM61460PWRR provides superior efficiency and EMI performance at the cost of different pinout and control architecture - neither is pin-compatible, but both serve overlapping wide-VIN buck use cases.

FAQ
What is the minimum output voltage supported by LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB supports a minimum output voltage of 1.285 V (typical), set by its internal feedback reference voltage. This value is specified over the full operating temperature range (–40°C to 125°C) with ±1.5% accuracy. Output voltage is adjusted using an external resistor divider connected to the FB pin, and the device remains stable with ceramic output capacitors down to this minimum level.
Does LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB require an external bootstrap diode?
No, LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB integrates a bootstrap diode internally. It only requires a 10-nF ceramic capacitor connected between the BOOT and SW pins to provide gate drive for the internal high-side N-channel MOSFET. Adding an external diode is unnecessary and may interfere with proper bootstrap capacitor charging during minimum off-time intervals.
How is current limit adjusted on LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB?
Current limit on LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB is adjusted by connecting a resistor between the IADJ pin and GND. The default current limit is 7.1 A (typ) when IADJ is left floating. With a resistor, the current limit scales inversely - e.g., a 49.9-kΩ resistor sets ~5 A limit. Accuracy degrades to +35%/–25% versus the factory default, and resistor values must stay within 30–100 kΩ per Figure 7-3 in the datasheet.
What package type does LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB use, and how is thermal performance managed?
LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB uses the TO-263-7 (NDP/PFM) package with an exposed thermal pad (EP). For optimal thermal performance, the EP must be soldered to a large PCB copper area connected to system ground. With 1 in² of 2-oz copper, junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) is 22°C/W. Thermal shutdown activates at ~150°C, and the device resumes operation after junction temperature drops below ~135°C.
Can LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB operate with input voltages below 4.5 V?
No, LM22679TJ-ADJ/NOPB has a recommended minimum input voltage of 4.5 V and an undervoltage lockout (UVLO) rising threshold of 4.3 V (typ). Operation below 4.5 V violates recommended conditions and may result in unstable regulation, failure to start, or undefined behavior. The absolute maximum rating for VIN is 43 V, and the device is fully specified from 4.5 V to 42 V across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature.
