Product details
Overview
LM2674M-3.3/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a monolithic non-synchronous step-down DC-DC converter delivering 500mA output current with ±1.5% output voltage tolerance, 260kHz fixed switching frequency, and 8V–40V input range-designed for compact, high-efficiency buck regulation in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM2674M-3.3/NOPB datasheet, LM2674M-3.3/NOPB pinout, LM2674M-3.3/NOPB application, or LM2674M-3.3/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.3V fixed output, SOIC-8 package, thermal shutdown protection, 0.25Ω internal DMOS switch, and TTL-compatible enable control with 50μA standby current.
Technical Context
The LM2674M-3.3/NOPB integrates a 0.25Ω DMOS high-side switch, internal 260kHz oscillator, and patented frequency compensation-enabling stable operation with only five external components. It uses bootstrap capacitor (CB) biasing for gate drive and regulates via direct output sensing (FB pin shorted to VOUT).
Its functional modes include active regulation above 1.4V ON/OFF threshold and low-power shutdown below that level, with cycle-by-cycle current limiting (0.62–1.2A), thermal shutdown, and 50μA typical standby quiescent current-making it suitable for thermally constrained embedded systems requiring robust fault protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1.5% over line/load/temperature - ensures stable logic rail generation without feedback divider. |
| Max Output Current | 500mA DC - supports mid-power microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 8V to 40V - accommodates unregulated 12V/24V industrial rails and automotive battery variations. |
| Switching Frequency | 260kHz fixed - enables use of small, standard inductors (e.g., 68µH) and reduces EMI compared to lower-frequency alternatives. |
| RDS(ON) | 0.25Ω typical at 25°C - minimizes conduction loss and simplifies thermal design; copper PCB traces suffice as heatsink. |
| Quiescent Current | 3.6mA typical in active mode; 50μA in shutdown - extends battery life in always-on monitoring systems. |
| Oscillator Tolerance | ±10% - ensures predictable filter sizing and consistent transient response across temperature. |
Pinout & Package
LM2674M-3.3/NOPB is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package (4.9mm × 6mm), with exposed pad not present. Pin functions are validated per TI SNVS007I Rev JUNE 2025.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CB (Pin 1) | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connects 10nF ceramic capacitor to VSW to generate gate drive voltage for internal high-side FET. |
| FB (Pin 4) | Feedback sense input | Internally tied to output for fixed 3.3V version; omission of external divider simplifies layout and improves stability. |
| ON/OFF (Pin 5) | Enable control input | TTL-compatible; >1.4V enables regulation, <0.8V disables with 50μA standby current-supports microcontroller-controlled power sequencing. |
| VSW (Pin 8) | Switch node output | Drives external catch diode and inductor; high dv/dt node requiring tight loop area and ground shielding. |
| GND (Pin 6) | Power ground | Primary return path for input/output capacitors and inductor; must be connected with shortest possible trace to minimize noise coupling. |
| VIN (Pin 7) | Input supply | Accepts 8–40V; requires local 22µF tantalum bypass capacitor with low-ESR and minimal trace inductance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 0.25Ω DMOS switch | Eliminates need for external MOSFET and driver, reducing BOM count and layout complexity while maintaining >86% efficiency at 12V→3.3V/500mA. |
| Fixed 3.3V output configuration | Removes FB resistor divider, improving accuracy, reducing component count, and enhancing long-term reliability in space-constrained designs. |
| 260kHz fixed-frequency oscillator | Enables predictable EMI filtering and consistent inductor sizing-compatible with off-the-shelf 68µH shielded inductors from Schott, Renco, Pulse, and Coilcraft. |
| TTL shutdown with 50μA standby | Allows low-power sleep modes in portable or sensor-edge devices; pin can be left floating for always-on operation due to internal 7V pull-up. |
| Thermal + current limit protection | Prevents damage during overload or ambient temperature rise; automatic recovery after fault removal-no manual reset required. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2675M-3.3/NOPB | Same pinout and function but rated for 1A output current; higher RDS(ON) (0.35Ω) and 100kHz switching frequency. | Better suited for higher-current loads (>500mA); larger inductor/capacitor requirements due to lower frequency. | Select when future design scalability to 1A is needed; verify thermal margin with 0.35Ω switch loss. |
| TPS54331DR | Synchronous buck with 3A rating, 570kHz switching, and adjustable output; requires external feedback resistors and has different pinout. | Higher efficiency at light loads; supports dynamic voltage scaling but increases design complexity and cost. | Choose for >90% efficiency across wider load range or when programmable output is required-requires full schematic/layout revision. |
Compared with LM2675M-3.3/NOPB, the LM2674M-3.3/NOPB offers higher switching frequency and lower RDS(ON) for compact 500mA designs; versus TPS54331DR, it trades efficiency and flexibility for simplicity, cost, and drop-in compatibility in legacy SOIC-8 layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2674M-3.3/NOPB?
The absolute maximum input voltage for LM2674M-3.3/NOPB is 45V, but the recommended operating range is 8V to 40V. Operation above 40V risks exceeding safe junction temperature or triggering overvoltage protection. For automotive load-dump scenarios up to 40V, the device remains fully functional with proper input capacitance and thermal layout-verified in TI SNVS007I Rev JUNE 2025 Section 5.1 and 5.3.
Does LM2674M-3.3/NOPB require an external feedback resistor network?
No, LM2674M-3.3/NOPB does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed-output variant, its FB pin is internally configured for 3.3V regulation-requiring only a direct connection to the output capacitor. This eliminates resistor tolerance errors and layout sensitivity, distinguishing it from the adjustable LM2674MX-ADJ versions which mandate a precision divider.
What package type is used for LM2674M-3.3/NOPB?
LM2674M-3.3/NOPB is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package), measuring 4.9mm × 6mm, with no exposed thermal pad. This surface-mount package is compatible with standard reflow profiles and supports automated optical inspection-confirmed in TI's Package Information table and Mechanical Drawing SLMA007.
How does the ON/OFF pin function on LM2674M-3.3/NOPB?
The ON/OFF pin (Pin 5) enables or disables regulation: voltage >1.4V (typical) turns the device on; <0.8V places it in shutdown with 50μA standby current. The pin features an internal 7V pull-up, so leaving it unconnected defaults to active mode-ideal for simple always-on applications without external control logic.
What is the typical efficiency of LM2674M-3.3/NOPB at full load?
LM2674M-3.3/NOPB achieves 86% typical efficiency at VIN = 12V, VOUT = 3.3V, and IOUT = 500mA (per Section 5.5 of SNVS007I). Efficiency rises to ~90% at 5V output and ~94% at 12V output under comparable conditions-reflecting lower relative conduction loss at higher output voltages.
