Product details
Overview
LM27313XMFX from Texas Instruments is a current-mode boost DC-DC converter IC with fixed 1.6-MHz switching frequency, integrated 30-V/800-mA DMOS FET switch, and internal compensation. It operates from 2.7 V to 14 V input and delivers up to 260 mA typical output current at 12 V in compact SOT-23-5 packaging-ideal for space-constrained portable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the LM27313XMFX datasheet, LM27313XMFX pinout, LM27313XMFX application, or LM27313XMFX equivalent, key selection considerations include its cycle-by-cycle current limiting, logic-level shutdown (<1 µA quiescent), 1.23-V feedback reference, 500-mΩ RDS(ON), and thermal shutdown protection in automotive-grade variants.
Technical Context
The LM27313XMFX uses peak-current-mode control with an internal ramp generator and PWM comparator to regulate output voltage via external resistive divider on FB. Its current-sense path integrates directly with the switch FET's source-drain voltage drop, enabling fast transient response without external sense resistors.
It features internally compensated loop dynamics, eliminating need for external compensation components except feed-forward capacitor (CF = 220 pF typical). Shutdown functionality is implemented as active-low logic input (SHDN) with 0.5 V turn-off threshold and <24 nA shutdown current-enabling battery-sensitive applications.

|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 1.6 MHz (fixed); enables use of ≤10-µH inductors and ≤10-µF ceramic capacitors for ultra-compact layout |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 14 V; supports single-cell Li-ion, multi-cell alkaline, and 12-V automotive auxiliary rails |
| Output Current (Typ) | 260 mA at 12 V (VIN = 5 V); limited by thermal design and duty cycle-dependent switch current (≤800 mA peak) |
| RDS(ON) | 500 mΩ (typ); minimizes conduction loss and self-heating at high load currents |
| Feedback Reference | 1.23 V (±2.5% over −40°C to +125°C); sets output via external resistor divider (e.g., R1 = 117 kΩ, R2 = 13.3 kΩ for 12 V) |

Pinout & Package
LM27313XMFX is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 package (2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body size) with exposed pad not electrically connected. Thermal resistance RθJA = 166.3°C/W enables operation up to +125°C junction temperature with minimal copper area.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - SW | Switch Drain Output | Connects to inductor and Schottky diode anode; carries pulsed 800-mA peak current and 30-V max voltage |
| 2 - GND | Analog & Power Ground | Single-point return for FB, SHDN, and VIN bypass; must be low-impedance path to minimize noise coupling |
| 3 - FB | Feedback Input | Senses output voltage via resistive divider; 60-nA bias current enables high-value dividers (e.g., 117k/13.3k) with low power loss |
| 4 - SHDN | Active-Low Enable | Pulled high to VIN for normal operation; driven low to disable switching and reduce IQ to 24 nA |
| 5 - VIN | Power Input | Supplies internal circuitry and switch gate driver; requires 2.2-µF ceramic capacitor placed within 3 mm of pin |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar boost converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM27314XMFX | Same SOT-23-5 package but 28-V switch rating and 1.2-MHz switching frequency; higher RDS(ON) (650 mΩ) | Better suited for lower-frequency, higher-output-voltage designs where EMI filtering is prioritized over size | Select LM27314XMFX only if 28-V switch rating is required and 1.2-MHz operation is acceptable for larger passive sizing |
| TPS61040DRVR | 28-V switch, 500-kHz switching, 1.22-V FB reference, and integrated soft-start; requires external compensation | Preferred for cost-sensitive, low-EMI applications needing soft-start and wider input range (1.8–6 V) | Choose TPS61040DRVR when soft-start, lower EMI, or sub-2-V input capability outweighs need for smallest solution size |
Compared with LM27314XMFX and TPS61040DRVR, LM27313XMFX offers highest power density due to 1.6-MHz operation and lowest RDS(ON), making it optimal for space-constrained 5–12 V boost where thermal headroom is limited.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with LM27313XMFX?
The LM27313XMFX supports output voltages up to 28 V, constrained by its 30-V internal FET switch rating and practical limits of external Schottky diode voltage rating (e.g., MBR0540 for ≥40 V). At 12 V output, typical efficiency exceeds 88% at 250 mA load with 5 V input. The actual maximum depends on duty cycle, diode forward voltage, and thermal management-designs above 20 V require careful attention to peak switch voltage stress and layout parasitics. LM27313XMFX achieves this using only five external components in standard SOT-23 footprint.
Does LM27313XMFX require external compensation components?
No, LM27313XMFX features fully internal compensation, eliminating the need for external Type-II or Type-III compensation networks. However, a feed-forward capacitor (CF = 220 pF typical) between FB and VIN is mandatory for loop stability-it introduces a zero near 8 kHz to counteract right-half-plane zero effects inherent to boost topology. Omitting CF causes oscillation or poor transient response. All other compensation is embedded in the IC's error amplifier and PWM modulator, verified across −40°C to +125°C. LM27313XMFX thus reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity versus controller-based alternatives.
How does the shutdown pin (SHDN) function on LM27313XMFX?
The SHDN pin on LM27313XMFX is an active-low logic input with 0.5 V turn-off threshold and 500 nA bias current. When pulled below 0.5 V, the IC disables switching, reduces quiescent current to 24 nA (typ), and places SW in high-impedance state. For normal operation, SHDN must be tied to VIN (via 50–100 kΩ pullup) or actively driven high; leaving it floating risks erratic behavior. This feature enables MCU-controlled power gating in battery-powered devices. LM27313XMFX maintains full specification compliance across all operating modes, including shutdown entry/exit timing.
What type of diode is recommended for use with LM27313XMFX?
A Schottky diode is mandatory for LM27313XMFX due to its low forward voltage and fast recovery-critical for efficiency at 1.6-MHz switching. For output voltages ≤15 V, TI specifies MBR0520 (20-V, 500-mA avg) as the reference diode. For 15–25 V outputs, MBR0530 (30-V) is recommended; for ≥25 V, MBR0540 (40-V) is required. Diode selection directly impacts thermal performance: reverse leakage and forward drop affect light-load efficiency and thermal rise. LM27313XMFX's 30-V switch rating allows margin for diode VF and transient spikes, but diode voltage rating must exceed VOUT + VF + 20% safety margin.
Can LM27313XMFX operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)?
Yes, LM27313XMFX naturally transitions into discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at light loads-typically below ~33 mA for a 5 V → 12 V, 10-µH design-as confirmed by inductor current waveform analysis in the datasheet. In DCM, peak switch current decreases while maintaining regulation via pulse-frequency modulation (PFM)-like behavior. Efficiency remains >80% down to 10 mA load. The IC's current-mode architecture ensures stable operation across both continuous and discontinuous modes without external mode-control circuitry. LM27313XMFX does not include forced-CCM or valley-switching features, so DCM operation is inherent and benign for low-power standby states.
