Product details
Overview
LM2833ZMY/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a monolithic 3.0 MHz, 3.0A synchronous step-down DC-DC switching regulator in a 10-pin MSOP-PowerPAD package. It integrates a 56 mΩ PMOS high-side switch, operates from 3.0V to 5.5V input, delivers 0.6V–4.5V adjustable output, and achieves up to 93% efficiency in compact USB-powered or HDD core power applications.
For engineers reviewing the LM2833ZMY/NOPB datasheet, LM2833ZMY/NOPB pinout, LM2833ZMY/NOPB application, or LM2833ZMY/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 3.0 MHz switching frequency, internal soft-start (600 µs), peak current-mode control with no external compensation, 0.6 V ±2% reference, and thermal shutdown at 165°C.
Technical Context
The LM2833ZMY/NOPB implements fixed-frequency peak current-mode PWM control with an internally generated ramp slope proportional to switching frequency. Its 3.0 MHz oscillator enables sub-1 µH inductor use and supports minimum on-times down to 30 ns for low-duty-cycle operation at 0.6 V output.
It features cycle-by-cycle current limiting (4.4 A typical), frequency foldback (reducing to 800 kHz when FB < 0.32 V), output over-voltage protection (trip at ~0.69 V), and under-voltage lockout with 350 mV hysteresis (2.7 V enable / 2.35 V disable).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | Fixed 3.0 MHz - enables ultra-small inductors (e.g., 0.47 µH) and ceramic capacitors without compromising transient response. |
| Output Current | 3.0 A steady-state - supports high-current loads such as HDD spindle motors or FPGA core rails without external MOSFETs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.0 V to 5.5 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, USB 5 V, and 3.3 V/5 V system rails. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.600 V ±2% over line/load/temp - sets precise output voltage via resistor divider; enables 0.6 V minimum output. |
| PMOS RDS(ON) | 56 mΩ (MSOP-PowerPAD) - reduces conduction loss at full load; contributes to >90% efficiency at 2 A, 3.3 V out. |
| Quiescent Current | 4.3–6.5 mA (active), 300 nA (shutdown) - enables battery-backed standby modes with negligible drain. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 165°C trip, 15°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design; recovers autonomously at ~150°C. |
Pinout & Package
LM2833ZMY/NOPB uses the 10-pin MSOP-PowerPAD (DGQ) package with exposed die attach pad (DAP) for enhanced thermal dissipation. The DAP must be soldered to a thermal pad on the PCB but cannot serve as primary ground return.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VINC | Bias supply input | Provides internal circuitry bias; requires local 0.1 µF bypass to PGND to stabilize control loop. |
| 2 EN | Enable control | Logic-high (>1.8 V) enables regulation; logic-low (<0.4 V) enters 300 nA shutdown; no internal pull-up. |
| 3 SGND | Analog ground | Reference point for feedback network; place bottom feedback resistor directly adjacent to minimize noise coupling. |
| 4 NC | No-connect | Internally unused; must be connected to PGND per TI layout guidelines to reduce EMI. |
| 5 FB | Feedback input | Senses output voltage via resistor divider; error amplifier compares to 0.6 V reference to adjust duty cycle. |
| 6 PGND | Power ground | High-current return path for internal switch and catch diode; separate from SGND to avoid ground bounce. |
| 7,8 SW | Switch node | Connects to inductor and catch diode anode; carries high di/dt; requires short, wide copper pour to minimize ringing. |
| 9,10 VIND | Main input supply | High-current VIN input; requires parallel 22 µF MLCC + 1 µF ceramic close to pins for low-ESL filtering. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal compensation | Eliminates need for external compensation network - simplifies layout and reduces BOM count by ≥3 components. |
| Frequency foldback | Reduces switching frequency to 800 kHz during startup or overload - limits peak switch current and prevents thermal runaway. |
| Internal soft-start | 600 µs controlled output ramp - suppresses inrush current and minimizes output overshoot without external timing capacitor. |
| Output over-voltage protection | Triggers at FB = 0.69 V (15% above 0.6 V ref) - disables switch to protect downstream 1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V ICs from fault conditions. |
| Peak current-mode control | Enables fast transient response and inherent cycle-by-cycle current limiting - avoids need for external current-sense resistor. |
Applications
| USB Powered Devices | HDD Core 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2833XMY/NOPB | 1.5 MHz switching frequency; 58 mΩ RDS(ON); higher max duty cycle (95%) | Better suited for lower input-to-output ratios (e.g., 5 V → 3.3 V); less stringent EMI filtering needed | Select when board space allows larger inductors or when lower EMI priority outweighs size reduction. |
| TPS62231DRVR | 3.0 MHz, 600 mA output; 2.05 V–6.0 V input; 0.6 V reference; WSON-6 package | Limited to ≤600 mA loads; lacks frequency foldback and OVP; smaller footprint but lower current capability | Use only for low-power subsystems (e.g., MCU I/O rails); not a functional replacement for 3.0 A requirements. |
Compared with LM2833ZMY/NOPB, the LM2833XMY/NOPB trades switching speed for marginally better light-load efficiency and wider duty-cycle range, while the TPS62231DRVR offers identical frequency and reference but cannot support the 3.0 A load current critical to HDD or USB device use cases.

FAQ
What is the switching frequency of LM2833ZMY/NOPB?
The LM2833ZMY/NOPB has a fixed internal switching frequency of 3.0 MHz, with typical variation of ±25% over temperature and input voltage. This high frequency enables use of sub-microhenry inductors and small ceramic capacitors, reducing solution size significantly compared to lower-frequency alternatives.
Does LM2833ZMY/NOPB require external compensation components?
No, the LM2833ZMY/NOPB uses internally compensated peak current-mode control. No external compensation network (e.g., Type II/III compensator) is required - only the feedback resistor divider, input/output capacitors, inductor, and catch diode are needed for full operation.
What is the maximum output current supported by LM2833ZMY/NOPB?
The LM2833ZMY/NOPB delivers up to 3.0 A DC output current under typical thermal conditions (TA = 25°C, 4-layer JEDEC board). Actual achievable current depends on PCB layout, ambient temperature, and airflow; thermal shutdown activates at 165°C junction temperature to prevent damage.
How does the enable (EN) pin function on LM2833ZMY/NOPB?
The EN pin on LM2833ZMY/NOPB controls device operation: voltage >1.8 V enables regulation with 15 µs delay followed by 600 µs soft-start; voltage <0.4 V places the device in 300 nA shutdown mode. The pin has no internal pull-up and must not float or exceed VIN + 0.3 V.
What package type is used for LM2833ZMY/NOPB?
The LM2833ZMY/NOPB is packaged in a 10-pin MSOP-PowerPAD (DGQ) with exposed thermal pad. This package provides low thermal resistance (θJA = 50°C/W, θJC = 11°C/W) and requires soldering the DAP to a PCB thermal plane for optimal power handling and reliability.
