Product details
Overview
LM25017MR/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 48-V, 650-mA synchronous buck/Fly-Buck™ regulator with integrated high-side and low-side N-channel MOSFETs, constant on-time (COT) control, no loop compensation required, and adjustable output voltage down to 1.225 V. It delivers isolated bias power in telecom systems and industrial equipment using Fly-Buck topology.
For engineers reviewing the LM25017MR/NOPB datasheet, LM25017MR/NOPB pinout, LM25017MR/NOPB application, or LM25017MR/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include input range (7.5–48 V), COT stability across line/load transients, programmable UVLO, thermal shutdown at 165°C, and dual-package availability (HSOP-8/WSON-8).
Technical Context
The LM25017MR/NOPB implements constant on-time control where on-time varies inversely with VIN, enabling nearly fixed switching frequency (adjustable up to 1 MHz via RON) without compensation networks. Its COT architecture relies on FB voltage ripple for off-time termination, requiring ≥25 mV ripple at FB for stable regulation.
It integrates a 7.6-V internal VCC regulator with 4.5-V UVLO, bootstrap gate drive (BST–SW capacitor: 0.01 µF), intelligent peak current limit (1.02 A typ), and dual-level UVLO (0.66 V shutdown / 1.225 V enable). The synchronous rectifier maintains continuous conduction mode (CCM) even at light loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7.5 V to 48 V - supports wide industrial and telecom rails without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 650 mA - maximum continuous load current with integrated MOSFETs; peak current limit at 1.02 A. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.225 V ±2% - sets precise output voltage via external resistor divider (e.g., 10 V out = RFB1/RFB2 ≈ 7.17). |
| Switching Frequency | Adjustable up to 1 MHz - set by RON resistor; typical 240 kHz at VIN=48 V, RON=100 kΩ. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 165°C with 20°C hysteresis - disables switch and VCC regulator to prevent catastrophic failure. |
| UVLO Threshold | 1.225 V rising (enable), 0.66 V falling (shutdown) - externally programmable via resistor divider from VIN. |
| VCC Regulator Output | 7.6 V ±1.3 V - powers internal logic and gate drivers; disabled if external 8.55–13 V applied to VCC. |
Pinout & Package
LM25017MR/NOPB is packaged in HSOP-8 (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm) with exposed PowerPAD thermally connected to RTN. Pin functions are validated per TI SNVS951F Rev F.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 RTN | Ground reference | System ground return for all internal circuits; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane. |
| 2 VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 7.5–48 V; powers internal VCC regulator and high-voltage gate drivers. |
| 3 UVLO | Undervoltage detection input | Resistor-divider node to program startup threshold and hysteresis; 0.66 V forces shutdown. |
| 4 RON | On-time programming | Resistor to VIN sets minimum on-time (e.g., 100 kΩ → ~250 ns at VIN=48 V); determines switching frequency. |
| 5 FB | Feedback input | Compares output voltage (via resistor divider) to 1.225 V reference; requires ≥25 mV ripple for COT stability. |
| 6 VCC | Bias supply output | 7.6 V regulated output for internal circuitry; decoupled with 1.0 µF ceramic; UVLO at 4.5 V. |
| 7 BST | Bootstrap supply | Charged from VCC through internal diode when SW is low; drives high-side gate via 0.01 µF BST–SW capacitor. |
| 8 SW | Switching node | Drives external inductor; connects to BST capacitor and output filter; rated for VIN + 0.3 V transient. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant On-Time (COT) Control | Eliminates need for external compensation components and enables ultra-fast transient response without stability tuning. |
| Integrated Synchronous Switches | 650-mA capable high-side and low-side N-MOSFETs reduce BOM count and eliminate external Schottky diode. |
| Programmable UVLO with Hysteresis | Independent threshold (1.225 V) and hysteresis (via 20 µA current source into RUV2) prevent brownout oscillation. |
| Fly-Buck™ Topology Support | Enables isolated auxiliary outputs using coupled inductor; no optocoupler or secondary controller needed. |
| Intelligent Peak Current Limit | Off-time scales with VIN and FB voltage - provides robust short-circuit protection while minimizing foldback during overload. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5164QDPRRQ1 | 42-V max input, 300-mA output, integrated 100-V bootstrap diode; requires external compensation. | Automotive AEC-Q100 qualified; lower current rating; not Fly-Buck™ capable. | Choose for automotive environments needing qualification; avoid for >650-mA or isolated bias needs. |
| TPS54240DGQR | 40-V max input, 2.5-A output, current-mode control with full compensation network; no integrated low-side FET. | Higher output current; requires external MOSFET and compensation; no Fly-Buck™ support. | Choose for higher-current non-isolated designs; avoid when minimizing BOM count or supporting isolation. |
Compared with LM25017MR/NOPB, LM5164QDPRRQ1 offers automotive qualification but lacks Fly-Buck™ capability and output current headroom, while TPS54240DGQR delivers higher current but increases design complexity with external FETs and compensation - making LM25017MR/NOPB optimal for compact, isolated, medium-current industrial supplies.

FAQ
What is the minimum recommended on-time for LM25017MR/NOPB and why does it matter?
The minimum recommended on-time for LM25017MR/NOPB is 100 ns at maximum input voltage (48 V). This ensures reliable one-shot timer operation and prevents premature switch turn-off that could destabilize constant on-time control. Setting RON too low risks violating this limit, causing erratic switching or failure to regulate - confirmed in Section 7.3.5 of the SNVS951F datasheet.
Can LM25017MR/NOPB operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)?
No - LM25017MR/NOPB is designed to remain in continuous conduction mode (CCM) across all loads due to its synchronous rectifier architecture and absence of diode emulation. Even at light loads, the low-side MOSFET remains active, preventing inductor current reversal from reaching zero. This behavior is explicitly stated in Section 7.3.8 and ensures predictable COT loop dynamics.
How does the FB ripple requirement affect output capacitor selection for LM25017MR/NOPB?
LM25017MR/NOPB requires ≥25 mV of ripple voltage at the FB pin for stable COT operation. If the output capacitor has very low ESR (e.g., polymer or MLCC-only), insufficient ripple may result - necessitating addition of series resistance (RC) in the feedback divider path per Figure 7-1. This is not a limitation of the IC itself but a fundamental requirement of its control scheme.
Does LM25017MR/NOPB support external clock synchronization?
No - LM25017MR/NOPB does not support external clock synchronization. Its constant on-time architecture generates frequency based solely on VIN and RON, with no SYNC pin or phase-lock capability. Frequency variation remains within ±15% over line and load per Figure 6-9, making it unsuitable for noise-sensitive synchronized systems.
What is the role of the BST capacitor in LM25017MR/NOPB and what value is recommended?
The BST capacitor (0.01 µF ceramic, placed between BST and SW pins) supplies gate drive voltage for the high-side N-MOSFET. During SW low-time, it recharges from the internal VCC regulator via an integrated diode. A 0.01 µF X7R or C0G capacitor is specified in Section 7.3.7 to ensure sufficient charge storage for full gate drive swing across temperature and duty cycle.
