Product details
Overview
LM2852YMXAX-1.0 from Texas Instruments is a 2A synchronous buck regulator with fixed 1.0V output, 500kHz switching frequency, and input voltage range of 2.85V to 5.5V. It integrates dual MOSFETs (60mΩ PFET/45mΩ NFET), internal type-three compensation, and soft-start control-designed for FPGA core power in portable computing systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM2852YMXAX-1.0 datasheet, LM2852YMXAX-1.0 pinout, LM2852YMXAX-1.0 application, or LM2852YMXAX-1.0 equivalent, key selection criteria include output voltage accuracy (±2.25% over temperature), thermal shutdown at 165°C, low 10µA shutdown current, and HTSSOP-14 exposed-pad package for high-power-density point-of-load designs.
Technical Context
The LM2852YMXAX-1.0 uses voltage-mode PWM control with internal oscillator set to 500kHz (±25% over temperature). Its integrated type-three compensation network eliminates external compensation components, enabling stable operation with 6.8–15µH inductors and 68–120µF output capacitors.
It features separate AVIN (bias logic) and PVIN (power FET supply) rails, allowing split-rail operation where PVIN ≤ AVIN. The device implements cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting (3.0A typical), UVLO with 85mV hysteresis, and switch-node protection that disables switching under no-load conditions until load is applied.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.0V ±2.25% over −40°C to +125°C junction temperature |
| Max Output Current | 2A continuous; peak current limit 3.0A ensures safe startup into heavy loads |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.85V to 5.5V on AVIN; PVIN supports same range but must not exceed AVIN |
| Switching Frequency | 500kHz nominal (325–625kHz over temperature); enables compact magnetics and EMI filtering |
| Quiescent Current | 2mA typical in active mode; 10µA in shutdown-critical for battery-backed systems |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at 165°C with 10°C hysteresis; protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking |
| Package Thermal Resistance | θJA = 38°C/W; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for rated performance |
Pinout & Package
LM2852YMXAX-1.0 is housed in a 14-pin HTSSOP package (PWP0014A) with exposed thermal pad. The package measures 5.0mm × 6.4mm × 1.2mm and requires Type-1 MSL handling (260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AVIN (1) | Chip bias supply | Provides power to internal logic; must be ≥ PVIN and within 2.85–5.5V |
| EN (2) | Enable control | Internally pulled up; tie to GND to disable; 75% AVIN threshold for enable |
| SGND (3) | Signal ground reference | Reference for error amplifier and soft-start; separate from PGND to reduce noise coupling |
| SS (4) | Soft-start timing node | Connects to 1–50nF capacitor; sets output ramp time via internal 400kΩ resistor |
| NC (5,12,13) | No-connect | Must be left floating or tied to GND; no internal connection |
| PVIN (6,7) | Main power input | Supplies internal PFET source; high-current path requiring low-inductance layout |
| SW (8,9) | Power switch node | Drives external inductor; high dv/dt node requiring short, wide trace routing |
| PGND (10,11) | Power ground return | Return path for PFET/NFET currents; connect directly to large copper pour |
| SNS (14) | Output voltage sense | High-impedance feedback node; connect directly to load for accurate regulation |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the LM2852YMXAX-1.0 over temperature?
The LM2852YMXAX-1.0 has a guaranteed output voltage tolerance of ±2.25% across the full operating junction temperature range of −40°C to +125°C. This specification is ensured by factory trimming and applies to the fixed 1.0V output version without external feedback resistors. Typical deviation at 25°C is ±1.25%, and the device maintains this accuracy under line and load transients per its electrical characteristics table.
Does the LM2852YMXAX-1.0 require external compensation components?
No, the LM2852YMXAX-1.0 does not require external compensation components. It integrates a complete type-three compensation network on-die, eliminating the need for external resistors or capacitors in the feedback loop. This simplifies design, improves reliability, and ensures stability with recommended output filter components (e.g., 6.8–15µH inductor and 68–120µF capacitor), as validated in TI's application notes and SPICE models.
Can the LM2852YMXAX-1.0 operate with separate AVIN and PVIN supplies?
Yes, the LM2852YMXAX-1.0 supports split-rail operation: AVIN powers the control logic (2.85–5.5V), while PVIN supplies the power FETs (also 2.85–5.5V). PVIN must never exceed AVIN. This allows independent sequencing-for example, enabling AVIN first to initialize logic before applying PVIN to avoid shoot-through-and improves efficiency in systems with dedicated bias rails.
What is the purpose of the SNS pin on the LM2852YMXAX-1.0?
The SNS (sense) pin on the LM2852YMXAX-1.0 is the high-impedance feedback node for the output voltage regulation loop. It connects directly to the load-side of the output capacitor to compensate for IR drop in PCB traces and ensure accurate voltage delivery at the load. Routing the SNS trace away from noisy nodes like SW is critical; TI specifies ≤10mΩ trace resistance between SNS and load for optimal regulation accuracy.
How does the LM2852YMXAX-1.0 handle no-load or light-load conditions?
The LM2852YMXAX-1.0 enters a low-power pulse-skipping mode under light load, reducing switching frequency to maintain regulation while minimizing quiescent current. At zero load, the switch node may appear inactive until a minimum load (~50mA) is applied-this is intentional behavior driven by switch-node protection circuitry to prevent instability. Once loaded, normal PWM operation resumes immediately with full 500kHz switching.
