Product details
Overview
LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 from Texas Instruments is a monolithic step-down (buck) DC/DC switching regulator IC delivering up to 3A output current with adjustable output voltage (1.2V–37V), 260kHz fixed-frequency operation, 8V–40V input range, and ±2% output voltage tolerance over full line/load/temperature. It integrates a 150mΩ DMOS high-side switch and supports ON/OFF control for low-power standby mode.
For engineers reviewing the LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 datasheet, LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 pinout, LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 application, or LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 equivalent, key selection considerations include its adjustable feedback architecture, thermal shutdown and current limiting protection, TO-263-7 (KTW) package thermal performance, and compatibility with standard off-the-shelf inductors and Schottky diodes in industrial power supply designs.
Technical Context
The LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 implements a voltage-mode PWM controller with a fixed 260kHz oscillator and internal 150mΩ DMOS power switch. Its feedback loop uses a two-stage high-gain amplifier referenced to a precise 1.21V internal reference (±1.1% over temperature), enabling stable regulation across 1.2V–37V via external resistor divider.
It operates in continuous conduction mode by default, supports shutdown via logic-level ON/OFF pin (1.4V threshold), and incorporates thermal shutdown, cycle-by-cycle current limiting (typ. 4.5A), and built-in soft-start functionality - all without requiring external compensation components due to internal frequency compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | Up to 3A continuous load capability with integrated 150mΩ DMOS switch - eliminates need for external MOSFET in mid-power buck designs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 8V to 40V - supports wide-range industrial and telecom inputs including 12V, 24V, and 36V rails. |
| Output Voltage | Adjustable from 1.2V to 37V via external resistor divider - enables flexible system-level voltage scaling. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.21V ±1.1% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures tight output regulation without trimming or calibration. |
| Switching Frequency | 260kHz ±11% - enables use of compact, standardized inductors while balancing efficiency and EMI. |
| Efficiency | Up to 94% at 12V→5V/3A - achieved via low RDS(on) switch and optimized gate drive architecture. |
| Standby Current | 50µA typical when ON/OFF pin = 0V - supports ultra-low-power sleep modes in battery-backed systems. |
| Thermal Protection | Integrated thermal shutdown with automatic recovery - prevents damage during overload or poor heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 is packaged in a 7-pin TO-263 (KTW) surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad, measuring 10.1mm × 15.24mm. The package provides low thermal resistance (RθJA = 35°C/W with 0.4896 in² copper) and requires PCB copper area connected to GND for optimal thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SW) | Switch Output | Drain node of internal DMOS FET - connects directly to inductor and cathode of external catch diode; switches between VIN and ~–0.4V (Schottky drop). |
| 2 (VIN) | Input Supply | Main power input (8–40V); supplies internal bias and high-side switch - must be bypassed with low-ESR capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 3 (CB) | Bootstrap Capacitor | Connects to SW via 100nF ceramic capacitor - generates gate drive voltage >VIN to fully enhance internal FET and minimize conduction loss. |
| 4 (GND) | Power Ground | Common return path for input/output capacitors, thermal pad, and internal circuitry - requires low-inductance connection to PCB ground plane. |
| 5 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected - must remain floating; no routing or soldering required. |
| 6 (FB) | Feedback Input | Senses output voltage via external resistor divider - sets regulated VOUT = 1.21V × (1 + R1/R2); high-impedance (85nA bias) minimizes divider current error. |
| 7 (ON/OFF) | Enable Control | Logic-compatible enable input - ≥1.4V enables regulation; ≤0.8V disables output and reduces quiescent current to 50µA. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar adjustable-output buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2596SX-ADJ/NOPB | 3A, 150kHz fixed frequency, higher RDS(on) (220mΩ), wider input (4.5–40V), lower max output (37V same) | Lower switching frequency increases inductor size; less efficient at high IOUT; better for cost-sensitive, lower-EMI designs | Choose for legacy designs where 150kHz EMI profile is preferred or where existing LM2596 layout can be reused with minor component changes. |
| TPS54302DDAR | 3A, 2.5MHz adjustable buck, integrated 100mΩ FETs, smaller 8-pin SO PowerPAD package, requires external compensation | Higher frequency enables tiny 1µH inductors; tighter output ripple; more complex layout and compensation tuning required | Choose for space-constrained applications needing sub-10mm² solution footprint and faster transient response - not drop-in compatible due to different pinout and control architecture. |
Compared with LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886, LM2596SX-ADJ/NOPB trades efficiency and thermal performance for broader input range and simpler design reuse, while TPS54302DDAR delivers miniaturization and bandwidth at the cost of increased design effort and no pin compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886?
The LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 supports an adjustable output voltage range of 1.2V to 37V, set by an external resistor divider connected to the FB pin. This upper limit is constrained by the absolute maximum voltage rating of the FB pin (14V) and internal reference accuracy - exceeding 37V risks violating feedback network voltage limits and degrading regulation stability. Always verify divider resistor power ratings and voltage coefficients for high-VOUT designs.
Does LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 require external compensation components?
No, LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 features fully internal frequency compensation - no external capacitors or resistors are needed to stabilize the control loop. This simplifies design, reduces BOM count, and ensures consistent performance across input voltage, load, and temperature variations without tuning. The internal compensation is optimized for standard output capacitor ESR ranges used with recommended tantalum or aluminum electrolytic types.
What thermal management is required for LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 in continuous 3A operation?
For continuous 3A output at full input range (e.g., 40V→5V), LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 requires a minimum 0.4896 in² (3.2 cm²) of 1 oz copper connected to the exposed thermal pad (pin 4/GND) to maintain junction temperature ≤125°C. Without this, thermal derating begins above ~2.2A. Use multiple thermal vias (≥6) under the pad and avoid isolating the pad from the main ground plane - insufficient copper causes rapid thermal shutdown during sustained load.
Can LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 be synchronized to an external clock?
No, LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 uses a fixed internal 260kHz oscillator with no external synchronization input. Its frequency tolerance is ±11% over temperature and line, and it cannot be locked to or dithered by an external timing source. For synchronized multi-rail systems, consider alternatives like TPS54302DDAR (with SYNC pin) or discrete oscillator-controlled designs - LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 prioritizes simplicity over timing coordination.
What is the purpose of the CB pin on LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886, and what capacitor value is recommended?
The CB (bootstrap capacitor) pin on LM2676SX-ADJ/J7001886 provides gate drive voltage for the internal high-side DMOS switch. A 100nF ceramic capacitor must be placed between CB and SW (pin 1) to generate a voltage ~VIN + 10V, ensuring full enhancement of the FET and minimizing RDS(on)-related losses. X7R or C0G dielectrics are recommended; capacitor voltage rating must exceed VIN + 10V, and placement must be within 3mm of the pins to prevent bootstrap coupling failure or erratic switching.
