Product details
Overview
LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a monolithic step-down (buck) DC-DC switching regulator delivering up to 3A output current with fixed 5.0V output, 260kHz fixed-frequency operation, ±2% output voltage tolerance over line/load/temperature, and 8V–40V input range. It integrates a 150mΩ DMOS high-side switch and supports ON/OFF control for low-power standby mode.
For engineers reviewing the LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB pinout, LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB application, or LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 5V output configuration, TO-263-7 (KTW) thermal performance, 50µA shutdown quiescent current, and compatibility with standard off-the-shelf inductors and Schottky diodes in industrial power supply designs.
Technical Context
The LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB implements a voltage-mode PWM controller with a fixed 260kHz internal oscillator and integrated 150mΩ DMOS high-side switch. Its feedback loop uses an internal resistor divider for 5.0V regulation, eliminating external resistors - unlike the adjustable version requiring FB pin connection to a voltage divider.
It operates in continuous conduction mode (CCM) under typical loads ≥100mA and includes thermal shutdown, cycle-by-cycle current limiting (3.6–5.4A), and precise ON/OFF threshold (0.8–2.0V) enabling reliable enable/disable sequencing in multi-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0V ±2% over –40°C to 125°C junction temperature, 8V–40V input, 100mA–3A load - ensures stable logic rail generation without external feedback components. |
| Switching Frequency | 260kHz fixed (±11%) - enables use of compact, standardized inductors (e.g., 33µH) and reduces EMI compared to lower-frequency alternatives. |
| Max Output Current | 3A continuous - supports mid-power applications like motor drivers and communication modules without external current boosting. |
| Efficiency | 88% typical at VIN=12V, IOUT=3A - minimizes thermal dissipation in enclosed industrial enclosures with limited airflow. |
| Quiescent Current | 50µA in shutdown (ON/OFF = 0V) - enables battery-backed systems to maintain >1-year standby life on small Li coin cells. |
| Input Voltage Range | 8V to 40V - accommodates wide-input industrial supplies (e.g., 24V nominal with transients) without pre-regulation. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 56°C/W (KTW package, 0.136 in² copper) - defines minimum PCB copper area required to sustain 3A at 125°C ambient. |
Pinout & Package
LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB is packaged in TO-263-7 (KTW), a thermally enhanced surface-mount variant of the DDPAK with exposed die attach pad soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal heat transfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SW) | Switch output | Drain node of internal DMOS FET; connects directly to inductor and cathode of external Schottky diode - must be routed with minimal loop area to reduce EMI. |
| 2 (IN) | Input supply | High-current input path for VIN (8–40V); requires low-ESR bulk capacitor placed <2mm from pin to suppress switching noise. |
| 3 (CB) | Bootstrap capacitor | Connects to SW via 100nF ceramic capacitor to generate gate drive voltage >VIN for full FET enhancement - critical for low RDS(on) operation. |
| 4 (GND) | Power ground | Main return path for IN, SW, and FB; must tie to large copper pour connected to DAP (exposed pad) for thermal and electrical stability. |
| 5 (NC) | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no routing or soldering permitted. |
| 6 (FB) | Feedback sense | Internally tied to 5V divider; for fixed-output version, connect directly to output capacitor - no external resistors needed. |
| 7 (ON/OFF) | Enable control | Logic-level input: ≥1.4V = active regulation, ≤0.8V = shutdown (50µA IQ); internal 20µA pull-up allows open-circuit enable. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 150mΩ DMOS switch | Reduces conduction losses at 3A, enabling >88% efficiency without external MOSFETs or complex gate drive circuitry. |
| Fixed 5.0V output with internal feedback divider | Eliminates external resistor network, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity while maintaining ±2% accuracy across temperature. |
| 260kHz fixed-frequency PWM | Enables predictable EMI filtering and consistent inductor sizing - avoids frequency jitter issues found in variable-frequency regulators. |
| Thermal shutdown + current limit | Protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking by halting switching until junction temperature falls below 165°C. |
| 50µA shutdown quiescent current | Supports ultra-low-power wake-on-event architectures where main power rails are disabled between operational cycles. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2675SD-5.0/NOPB | 2.5A output current, same 260kHz frequency and pinout - lower current rating with identical thermal footprint. | Suitable for <2.5A loads where reduced cost and lower thermal demand are prioritized over 3A headroom. | Select when peak load remains ≤2.2A and board space/thermal budget constraints favor smaller solution size. |
| TPS54302DDAR | 3A synchronous buck, 2.5–6V input, 500kHz–2.2MHz adjustable frequency - requires external compensation but offers higher efficiency at light loads. | Better suited for battery-powered or low-noise applications where variable frequency and synchronous rectification improve partial-load efficiency. | Choose when input voltage is <8V or when >90% efficiency at 100mA load is required - not a drop-in replacement due to different pinout and control architecture. |
Compared with LM2675SD-5.0/NOPB, LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB delivers 20% higher output current in identical TO-263-7 packaging; versus TPS54302DDAR, it offers simpler design with fixed frequency and no external compensation but trades off light-load efficiency and input voltage flexibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB?
The absolute maximum input voltage for LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB is 45V, but the recommended operating range is 8V to 40V. Operation above 40V risks exceeding safe SOA limits during transients, and TI specifies 40V as the upper bound for guaranteed performance across temperature and load conditions per the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions table.
Does LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB require external feedback resistors?
No, LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed 5.0V output variant, it contains an internal precision resistor divider connected to the FB pin. The FB pin must be connected directly to the output capacitor - no external components are needed for voltage setting, simplifying layout and improving accuracy.
What thermal performance can be expected from LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB in TO-263-7 package?
In the KTW (TO-263-7) package, LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB achieves RθJA = 56°C/W with 0.136 in² copper area and 29°C/W with 12 vias to inner ground layer. At 3A output and 12V input, typical power dissipation is ~1.2W - resulting in ~67°C junction rise above ambient with minimal copper, well within the –40°C to 125°C operating range.
Can LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB be synchronized to an external clock?
No, LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB cannot be synchronized to an external clock. It uses an internal fixed-frequency 260kHz oscillator with ±11% tolerance. There is no SYNC pin or frequency adjustment capability - unlike newer TI regulators such as the TPS54302, which supports external synchronization and programmable switching frequency.
What is the purpose of the NC pin (Pin 5) on LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB?
Pin 5 on LM2676SD-5.0/NOPB is a no-connect (NC) terminal - it is internally unconnected and serves no electrical function. It must remain unconnected on the PCB; routing traces to or placing solder on Pin 5 may cause mechanical stress or unintended coupling, potentially degrading thermal or EMI performance.
