Product details
Overview
LM25184QNGURQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive primary-side regulated (PSR) flyback DC/DC controller with integrated 65-V, 4.1-A MOSFET, ±1.5% output regulation accuracy, 4.5–42-V input range, and boundary conduction mode (BCM) operation - used in IGBT/SiC driver supplies for traction inverters.
For engineers reviewing the LM25184QNGURQ1 datasheet, LM25184QNGURQ1 pinout, LM25184QNGURQ1 application, or LM25184QNGURQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include PSR isolation architecture, thermal compensation capability (TC pin), programmable UVLO hysteresis, soft-start configurability, and CISPR 25 Class 5 EMI compliance for HEV/EV powertrain systems.
Technical Context
The LM25184QNGURQ1 implements variable-frequency peak current-mode (VFPCM) control with three operating modes: BCM at heavy loads (up to 350 kHz), DCM at medium loads (clamped max frequency), and frequency foldback mode (FFM) at light loads (down to 12 kHz). It samples reflected flyback voltage on the primary side to eliminate optocouplers or auxiliary windings.
Its integrated 65-V/0.11-Ω MOSFET supports up to 15 W output power with 4.1-A peak current limit and 140-ns minimum on-time blanking. The TC pin enables diode forward-voltage temperature coefficient compensation, while EN/UVLO provides precision 1.45-V enable threshold with 50-mV hysteresis and hard shutdown below 0.6 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 42 V - supports full automotive battery range including cold-crank (3.5 V post-start) |
| Output Regulation Accuracy | ±1.5% - includes line, load, and temperature variation; enables stable 12-V rail for gate drivers |
| Integrated MOSFET | 65-V, 4.1-A, 0.11-Ω RDS(on) - eliminates external high-side switch; reduces BOM count and layout complexity |
| Switching Frequency Range | 12 kHz to 350 kHz - adaptive BCM/DCM/FFM operation optimizes efficiency across 0.5%–100% load |
| Junction Temperature Range | –40°C to +150°C - meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 ambient (–40°C to +125°C) with 25°C margin |
| EMI Performance | CISPR 25 Class 5 compliant - soft switching avoids diode reverse recovery; no snubber required |
| Feedback Architecture | Primary-side regulation (PSR) - no optocoupler or auxiliary winding needed; single-component isolation barrier |
Pinout & Package
LM25184QNGURQ1 is housed in an 8-pin WSON package (NGU variant) with 4.0 mm × 4.0 mm body size, 0.8-mm pin pitch, and wettable flanks for automated optical inspection (AOI).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW | Switch node | Internally connected to drain of integrated 65-V MOSFET; connects to primary winding of flyback transformer |
| FB | Primary-side feedback input | Samples reflected flyback voltage; resistor divider (FB–SW / RSET–GND) sets output voltage without secondary sensing |
| VIN | Power input | Bias supply and input voltage sense; requires low-impedance path to input capacitor |
| EN/UVLO | Enable & UVLO programming | 1.45-V rising threshold with 50-mV hysteresis; supports resistor-divider UVLO tuning and system sequencing |
| SS/BIAS | Soft-start timing / external bias input | 5-µA internal charge current for 6-ms default soft-start; accepts external 4.25–13-V bias to reduce quiescent current |
| TC | Temperature compensation | Adjusts FB reference to offset thermal drift of flyback diode VF; improves output regulation over –40°C to +150°C |
| RSET | Reference current setting | 12.1-kΩ to GND sets 1.21-V internal reference; stabilizes regulation against input voltage and temperature variation |
| GND | Analog & power ground | Common return for control circuitry and MOSFET source; must be low-inductance connection to minimize noise |

FAQ
What is the maximum output power supported by the LM25184QNGURQ1?
The LM25184QNGURQ1 supports up to 15 W of output power using its integrated 65-V, 4.1-A MOSFET. This rating assumes typical conditions: 12-V output, 24-V input, and proper thermal management per the 2.7°C/W junction-to-case (bottom) thermal resistance. Derating is required at higher ambient temperatures or with reduced airflow, as specified in the thermal characteristics table of the LM25184QNGURQ1 datasheet.
Does the LM25184QNGURQ1 require an optocoupler for feedback?
No, the LM25184QNGURQ1 does not require an optocoupler. It uses primary-side regulation (PSR) by sampling the reflected flyback voltage at the SW pin during zero-current detection on the secondary side. This architecture eliminates both the optocoupler and auxiliary transformer winding, reducing component count, board space, and long-term reliability risks associated with optocoupler aging - a key advantage of the LM25184QNGURQ1 in automotive applications.
How is output voltage set on the LM25184QNGURQ1?
The output voltage of the LM25184QNGURQ1 is set using two resistors: one (RFB) between SW and FB pins, and another (RRSET = 12.1 kΩ) between RSET and GND. The ratio RFB/RRSET determines the output based on the internal 1.21-V reference. An optional resistor from TC to RSET compensates for the temperature coefficient of the flyback diode's forward voltage - a unique capability of the LM25184QNGURQ1 that improves regulation accuracy across temperature.
What protection features are integrated into the LM25184QNGURQ1?
The LM25184QNGURQ1 integrates hiccup-mode overload protection, thermal shutdown with 10°C hysteresis (triggering at 175°C), input undervoltage lockout with programmable hysteresis, and MOSFET overcurrent limiting (4.1-A peak). During sustained overload, it enters a low-frequency restart mode (~9 kHz) rather than latching off - enabling automatic recovery once the fault clears. These protections are fully implemented within the IC and require no external components, enhancing system robustness in automotive environments where the LM25184QNGURQ1 is deployed.
Is the LM25184QNGURQ1 pin-compatible with other TI PSR controllers like the LM5180QNGURQ1?
No, the LM25184QNGURQ1 is not pin-compatible with the LM5180QNGURQ1. While both are AEC-Q100 automotive PSR flyback controllers with integrated MOSFETs, the LM25184QNGURQ1 uses an 8-pin WSON (NGU) package with specific pin assignments (e.g., TC, RSET), whereas the LM5180QNGURQ1 uses a 10-pin WSON package and includes additional pins for secondary-side regulation and higher-frequency operation. Board redesign is required to substitute either device - confirming that LM25184QNGURQ1 has no drop-in replacement within TI's portfolio.
