Product details
Overview
LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 2A synchronous buck regulator with fixed 1.5V output, 500 kHz switching frequency, 2.85–5.5V input range, internal 60-mΩ MOSFETs, and voltage-mode control. It delivers precise point-of-load regulation for FPGA core supplies in space-constrained industrial embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB datasheet, LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB pinout, LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB application, or LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 1.5V factory-programmed output tolerance (±1.7%), thermal performance in HTSSOP-14 (RθJA = 39.2°C/W), soft-start capacitor compatibility (1–50 nF), and confirmed 2A continuous load capability at 125°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB implements voltage-mode PWM control with integrated type-three compensation, eliminating external compensation components. Its split-rail architecture separates AVIN (logic bias) from PVIN (power FET supply), enabling optimized input filtering and thermal management.
Switch node protection logic disables switching under no-load or light-load conditions to prevent shoot-through, resuming normal operation only when load current exceeds threshold. Internal UVLO triggers at 2.85V (rising) with 85–210mV hysteresis, ensuring reliable startup across temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±1.7% (factory EEPROM-programmed; no external feedback required) |
| Max Output Current | 2 A continuous - supports full-rated load without derating up to 125°C junction temperature |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.85 V to 5.5 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, 3.3V, and 5V system rails |
| Switching Frequency | 500 kHz (±25%) - enables compact magnetics and balances EMI vs. efficiency trade-offs |
| Quiescent Current | 0.85 mA (typ) non-switching - minimizes standby power in always-on subsystems |
| Shutdown Current | 10 µA (typ) - ensures ultra-low leakage during system sleep modes |
| Internal FET RDS(on) | 75 mΩ PFET / 55 mΩ NFET (25°C) - reduces conduction loss and thermal stress at full load |
Pinout & Package
LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB uses the 14-pin HTSSOP package (5.00 mm × 4.40 mm) with exposed thermal pad soldered to PCB ground for enhanced heat dissipation (RθJC(bot) = 1.7°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AVIN (Pin 1) | Chip bias supply | Powers internal logic; must be ≥ PVIN and within 2.85–5.5V; decoupling critical for noise immunity |
| EN (Pin 2) | Enable control | Internally pulled up; tie to GND to disable; no external pull-up needed for default enable |
| SGND (Pin 3) | Signal ground reference | Separate from PGND to isolate analog feedback path from high-current return paths |
| SS (Pin 4) | Soft-start timing | Connects to 1–50 nF capacitor; sets controlled ramp time for output voltage (e.g., 2.7 nF ≈ 3 ms) |
| PVIN (Pins 6,7) | Main power input | Supplies internal power FETs; requires low-ESR bulk capacitor placed adjacent to pins |
| SNS (Pin 14) | Output voltage sense | High-impedance feedback node; connect directly to load for accurate remote sensing |
| PGND (Pins 10,11) | Power ground return | Low-inductance path for switch current; must tie to thermal pad and shared ground plane |
| SW (Pins 8,9) | Switch node | Drives external inductor; high di/dt node requiring short, wide traces to minimize EMI and losses |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-programmed output | 1.5V set permanently in EEPROM - eliminates external resistor divider, saves board space, guarantees accuracy |
| Integrated type-three compensation | On-chip compensation network - removes need for external RC/Zobel networks, simplifies design validation |
| Split-rail operation | Independent AVIN/PVIN supplies - allows optimization of logic rail stability and power rail efficiency separately |
| Switch node protection | Automatic disable under no-load - prevents uncontrolled oscillation and improves reliability in intermittent-load applications |
| Exposed thermal pad | HTSSOP-14 package with bottom thermal pad - achieves 1.7°C/W junction-to-board resistance for sustained 2A operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRVR | 1.5V fixed output, 3 MHz switching, 0.6–5.5V input, 0.65A max - smaller size but lower current rating | Targeted at ultra-compact, low-power applications (e.g., wearables); not suitable for 2A loads | Select when board area is constrained and load ≤0.65A; verify thermal margin with 0.65A derating curve |
| LM2678SD-1.5/NOPB | 1.5V fixed output, 63 kHz switching, 8–40V input, 5A max - higher voltage, lower frequency, larger inductor | Designed for industrial 24V input systems; incompatible with 3.3V/5V rails due to minimum input requirement | Select only for high-input-voltage (>8V) applications; avoid for low-voltage portable designs |

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed output voltage of the LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB?
The LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB has a factory-programmed output voltage of exactly 1.5 V, stored in on-chip EEPROM with guaranteed tolerance of ±1.7% (1.4663 V to 1.5337 V) across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature. This eliminates external feedback resistors and ensures consistent performance without calibration.
Does the LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB require external compensation components?
No, the LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB integrates a complete type-three compensation network internally. This eliminates the need for external capacitors or resistors in the feedback loop, reducing BOM count and layout complexity while maintaining stability across recommended output filter ranges (e.g., 10–15 µH inductor, 100–120 µF output capacitor).
What is the maximum continuous output current supported by the LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB?
The LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB supports 2 A continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (TJ ≤ 125°C, PVIN = 3.3–5.5 V). This rating is validated with the HTSSOP-14 package's thermal characteristics (RθJA = 39.2°C/W) and internal 75 mΩ/55 mΩ MOSFETs, with peak current limit set at 3.0 A (25°C).
How does the soft-start function work on the LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB?
The LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB uses an internal DAC current source (400 kΩ effective resistance) charging an external capacitor on the SS pin to control output voltage ramp rate. A 2.7 nF capacitor yields ~3 ms startup time (95% of final value), preventing inrush current and enabling sequencing with other rails. Capacitor values must stay within 1–50 nF per datasheet specification.
Is the LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB pin-compatible with other LM2852 variants like the LM2852XMXAX-1.5/NOPB?
No, the LM2852YMXAX-1.5/NOPB (500 kHz version) and LM2852XMXAX-1.5/NOPB (1.5 MHz version) share identical pinout and package (HTSSOP-14), but differ in switching frequency, current limit thresholds, and recommended output filter component values. Substituting one for the other requires re-optimizing inductor and capacitor selections per Table 1 in the datasheet.
