Product details
Overview
LM2677S-5.0 from Texas Instruments is a monolithic step-down (buck) DC-DC voltage regulator delivering up to 5 A at a fixed 5 V output, featuring an integrated 100-mΩ DMOS power switch, 260-kHz internal oscillator, and ±2% output voltage tolerance over full line/load/temperature range. It operates from 8 V to 40 V input and supports external clock synchronization from 280 kHz to 400 kHz for EMI-sensitive communications equipment.
For engineers reviewing the LM2677S-5.0 datasheet, LM2677S-5.0 pinout, LM2677S-5.0 application, or LM2677S-5.0 equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range, output current capability, thermal performance in TO-263 package, standby current under ON/OFF control, and compatibility with standard off-the-shelf inductors and low-ESR output capacitors.
Technical Context
The LM2677S-5.0 implements a fixed-frequency PWM buck controller with internal 260-kHz oscillator and optional external sync input (pin 5), enabling precise ripple frequency positioning. Its high-side DMOS switch drives an external inductor-diode-capacitor network, with feedback sensed directly at the output for fixed 5-V regulation.
Operation includes active mode (ON/OFF ≥1.4 V), shutdown mode (ON/OFF ≤0.8 V, 50 μA standby), thermal shutdown, cycle-by-cycle current limiting (6.1–8.75 A), and bootstrap gate drive via CB pin requiring a 0.01-μF capacitor to VSW. The device uses internal gain-setting resistors-no external divider needed for 5-V output.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±2% over –40°C to 125°C junction temperature, 8–40 V input, 100 mA–5 A load. |
| Max Output Current | 5 A continuous; current limit threshold 6.1–8.75 A depending on temperature. |
| Input Voltage Range | 8 V to 40 V DC; absolute maximum 45 V. |
| Switch RDS(ON) | 0.12–0.225 Ω (25°C to 125°C); enables >90% efficiency at full load with low conduction loss. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 260 kHz nominal (225–280 kHz over temperature); externally synchronizable to 280–400 kHz via SYNC pin. |
| Standby Quiescent Current | 50–150 μA when ON/OFF pin ≤0.8 V; enables ultra-low-power system sleep modes. |
| Thermal Resistance (θJA) | 26°C/W with 7.4× package copper area (TO-263); supports 5-A operation without heatsink in moderate ambient. |
Pinout & Package
LM2677S-5.0 is packaged in TO-263 (KTW) - a 7-pin surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad (DAP), 10.16 mm × 8.69 mm body size, and integrated heat dissipation path to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VSW (Pin 1) | Switch node output | Drives external inductor; swings between VIN and ~–0.5 V (Schottky drop); requires low-inductance layout to minimize EMI. |
| VIN (Pins 2,3) | Power input | Connects to 8–40 V supply and high-frequency input capacitor (CIN); dual pins reduce trace resistance and improve current sharing. |
| CB (Pin 3) | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Requires 0.01-μF ceramic capacitor to VSW to bias high-side gate driver above VIN for full MOSFET enhancement. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Power ground | Main return path for input/output currents; must connect directly to low-impedance PCB ground plane near CIN/COUT. |
| SYNC (Pin 5) | External clock input | Accepts TTL/CMOS clock (280–400 kHz); overrides internal oscillator; disables current-limit foldback when active. |
| FB (Pin 6) | Feedback sense | Internally connected to 5-V output divider; short directly to output capacitor for fixed 5-V operation-no external resistors required. |
| ON/OFF (Pin 7) | Enable control | Logic-level input: ≥1.4 V = active regulation; ≤0.8 V = shutdown (50 μA IQ); internal 20-μA pullup allows floating for always-on use. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 100-mΩ DMOS switch | Enables 5-A output without external FET; reduces BOM count and layout complexity versus controller-only solutions. |
| ±2% output voltage accuracy | Guaranteed over full temperature, line, and load range-eliminates need for post-regulation trimming in industrial power supplies. |
| External sync capability (280–400 kHz) | Allows deterministic ripple frequency placement for EMI filtering and coexistence with RF subsystems in comms equipment. |
| 260-kHz fixed internal oscillator | Optimizes inductor/capacitor sizing for cost-effective off-the-shelf magnetics; balances efficiency vs. size for 5-A applications. |
| Thermal shutdown + current limiting | Protects against sustained overload or ambient overheating; latches off until reset by cycling ON/OFF or input power. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2596S-5.0 | 3-A rated, 150-kHz fixed frequency, no SYNC input, higher RDS(ON) (0.16 Ω typical). | Limited to lower-current applications; unsuitable where 5-A load or EMI-controlled ripple frequency is required. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs current/EMI requirements; verify thermal derating at 3 A in same TO-263 footprint. |
| TPS54560B | 5-A synchronous buck, 100-kHz–2.5-MHz adjustable frequency, integrated high/low-side FETs, smaller 8-pin SOIC package. | Requires external compensation; lacks fixed 5-V version-needs FB resistor network; better for space-constrained designs. | Choose for higher switching frequencies or PCB area reduction; accept added design effort for loop compensation and layout. |
Compared with LM2596S-5.0, LM2677S-5.0 delivers 67% higher current and EMI-controllable ripple; compared with TPS54560B, it offers plug-and-play 5-V regulation but occupies more board area and lacks frequency flexibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2677S-5.0?
The LM2677S-5.0 has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 45 V, with recommended operating range from 8 V to 40 V. Exceeding 45 V risks permanent damage. For automotive applications with load dump transients, external clamping or pre-regulation is advised to keep VIN within specification during surges.
Does LM2677S-5.0 require external feedback resistors for 5-V output?
No. The LM2677S-5.0 is a fixed-output variant: its internal feedback divider is factory-trimmed for 5.0 V, so the FB pin (Pin 6) must be connected directly to the output capacitor-no external resistors are needed. This simplifies layout and improves accuracy versus adjustable versions.
How does the SYNC pin affect protection features in LM2677S-5.0?
When the SYNC pin is actively driven (280–400 kHz), current-limit frequency foldback is disabled. Under extreme short-circuit conditions, this may reduce fault robustness versus free-running mode. TI recommends verifying short-circuit behavior in final system testing if SYNC is used in safety-critical paths.
What thermal performance can be expected from LM2677S-5.0 in TO-263 package?
In the TO-263 (KTW) package with 7.4× copper area (1.0064 in²), LM2677S-5.0 achieves θJA = 26°C/W. At 5-A load and 12-V input, typical power dissipation is ~1.5 W, resulting in ~40°C junction rise above ambient-well within the –40°C to 125°C operating range without forced air.
Can LM2677S-5.0 operate with only ceramic output capacitors?
Yes. LM2677S-5.0 supports ceramic output capacitors, provided total ESR is ≥13 mΩ (per datasheet Figure 12/13). Use parallel ceramics or add small series resistance if ESR falls below this threshold to ensure loop stability and prevent oscillation at light loads.
