Product details
Overview
LM2674LDX-5.0 from Texas Instruments is a monolithic 500 mA step-down (buck) switching voltage regulator in LLP package, delivering fixed 5.0 V output with ±1.5% tolerance, 260 kHz fixed-frequency operation, and >90% efficiency at 12 V input/500 mA load. It integrates a 0.25 Ω DMOS power switch, internal frequency compensation, and thermal/current protection for industrial DC-DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LM2674LDX-5.0 datasheet, LM2674LDX-5.0 pinout, LM2674LDX-5.0 application, or LM2674LDX-5.0 equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (6.5–40 V), standby current (50 μA), oscillator frequency tolerance (±10%), RDS(ON) (0.25 Ω), and guaranteed 500 mA output capability under full temperature range.
Technical Context
The LM2674LDX-5.0 implements a synchronous-free buck topology using an internal LDMOS power switch and fixed-frequency PWM control. Its patented internal frequency compensation eliminates external compensation components, while the 260 kHz oscillator enables compact LC filter design with standard off-the-shelf inductors.
Operation includes TTL-compatible shutdown (VSH threshold: 0.8–2.0 V), thermal shutdown, cycle-by-cycle current limiting (0.62–1.25 A), and feedback regulation referenced to a 1.21 V internal bandgap. The device requires only five external components: input capacitor, output capacitor, catch diode, inductor, and boost capacitor.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±1.5% over line/load/temperature - ensures stable logic supply without external resistive divider. |
| Max Output Current | 500 mA guaranteed - supports single-rail microcontroller or FPGA core supply with margin. |
| Input Voltage Range | 6.5 V to 40 V - compatible with 12 V/24 V industrial bus, automotive battery, or unregulated AC-DC outputs. |
| Switching Frequency | 260 kHz ±10% - balances EMI performance and inductor size; allows use of low-cost 47–100 μH standard inductors. |
| RDS(ON) | 0.25 Ω typical - minimizes conduction loss; enables >90% efficiency at 12 VIN/5 VOUT/500 mA. |
| Standby Current | 50 μA typical - supports low-power system sleep modes without external enable circuitry. |
| Efficiency | 90% typical at 12 VIN, 500 mA - reduces thermal load; PCB copper traces suffice as heatsink. |
Pinout & Package
LM2674LDX-5.0 is housed in a 16-lead LLP (Leadless Leadframe Package), thermally enhanced surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad. Pin numbering follows top-view orientation per NSC Package Drawing LDA16A.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input Power Supply | Accepts 6.5–40 V DC; requires local 22 μF tantalum bypass capacitor close to pin. |
| GND | Power Ground | Common return for input/output paths and thermal pad connection; must be tied to large copper area. |
| VOUT | Regulated Output | Delivers fixed 5.0 V; connects to output capacitor (e.g., 68–100 μF tantalum) and load. |
| SW | Switch Node | Drives external catch diode and inductor; high dv/dt node requiring short trace routing. |
| FB | Feedback Input | Not used in fixed-output version; internally connected to output; must be left unconnected. |
| ON/OFF | Shutdown Control | TTL-compatible enable; <2.0 V disables regulator (50 μA standby); >2.0 V enables operation. |
| BOOST | Bootstrap Capacitor Terminal | Connects to 0.01 μF ceramic capacitor between SW and BOOST to drive high-side switch gate. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated LDMOS Power Switch | 0.25 Ω RDS(ON) enables high-efficiency 500 mA buck conversion without external MOSFET. |
| Patented Internal Compensation | Eliminates external compensation network - reduces BOM count and design iteration time. |
| Fixed 260 kHz Oscillator | Enables predictable EMI profile and simplifies EMI filter design using standardized inductor values. |
| Thermal + Current Protection | Auto-recovering thermal shutdown and cycle-by-cycle current limit prevent damage during overload or ambient rise. |
| Low Standby Quiescent Current | 50 μA shutdown current supports battery-backed or energy-sensitive systems. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2674M-5.0 | SO-8 package; higher θJA (105°C/W vs. LLP's ~50°C/W); same electrical specs. | Less thermal performance in high-density layouts; suitable where through-hole or SO-8 footprint exists. | Select when legacy SO-8 layout reuse or hand-soldering is required; verify thermal derating at 500 mA. |
| TPS54302DDCR | 3.5–28 V input; 3 A output; 500 kHz switching; integrated FETs; different pinout and control architecture. | Higher current and frequency; requires new layout and loop compensation; not drop-in. | Choose for future-proof designs needing >500 mA or tighter regulation; not a direct replacement. |
Compared with LM2674M-5.0, the LM2674LDX-5.0 offers superior thermal performance in space-constrained applications due to its LLP package's exposed thermal pad, while TPS54302DDCR provides higher output current and frequency at the cost of layout redesign and increased complexity.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LM2674LDX-5.0?
The absolute maximum input voltage for the LM2674LDX-5.0 is 45 V, but the recommended operating range is 6.5 V to 40 V. Exceeding 40 V may trigger internal protection or degrade long-term reliability. The device maintains regulation and specified performance across this full 6.5–40 V span, making it suitable for 24 V industrial systems with transient overvoltage tolerance.
Does the LM2674LDX-5.0 require external feedback resistors?
No, the LM2674LDX-5.0 does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed-output variant, its 5.0 V regulation is implemented internally; the FB pin is pre-connected and must remain unconnected in the circuit. This eliminates resistor tolerance errors and simplifies layout versus adjustable versions like LM2674LD-ADJ.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the LM2674LDX-5.0 in its LLP package?
The LM2674LDX-5.0's θJA is highly dependent on PCB layout but typically ranges from 45°C/W to 65°C/W with ≥1 in² of 2-oz copper connected to the exposed thermal pad and multiple thermal vias. Unlike SO-8 or DIP packages, the LLP's thermal performance scales directly with copper area and via count-TI Application Note AN-1187 provides validated layout guidelines for optimal dissipation.
Can the LM2674LDX-5.0 be used in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)?
Yes, the LM2674LDX-5.0 operates reliably in both continuous and discontinuous conduction modes depending on load and inductor value. At light loads (<100 mA), it naturally transitions to DCM, reducing switching losses and maintaining high efficiency. The datasheet includes DCM waveforms and design guidance for 47–150 μH inductors to optimize ripple and transient response.
What type of catch diode is recommended for use with the LM2674LDX-5.0?
A Schottky diode rated for ≥3 A average current and ≥50 V reverse voltage is recommended-e.g., IR 30WQ05F (50 V, 3.3 A). Schottky diodes minimize forward voltage drop and switching losses, directly improving efficiency. The diode must be placed adjacent to the SW and VOUT pins with minimal trace length to suppress ringing and EMI per TI layout guidelines in the LM2674 datasheet.
