Product details
Overview
LM2853MH-1.5 from Texas Instruments is a 3A, 550 kHz synchronous buck regulator in an exposed-pad HTSSOP-14 package, delivering a factory-programmed 1.5 V output from 3.0–5.5 V input. It integrates internal 40 mΩ/32 mΩ MOSFETs, type-three compensation, and soft-start control-enabling compact point-of-load power for FPGA core rails.
For engineers reviewing the LM2853MH-1.5 datasheet, LM2853MH-1.5 pinout, LM2853MH-1.5 application, or LM2853MH-1.5 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.5 V ±1.13% output tolerance at 25°C, 12 µA shutdown current, thermal shutdown at 165°C, and compatibility with standard 4.7–6.8 µH inductors and 120–220 µF output capacitors.
Technical Context
The LM2853MH-1.5 implements voltage-mode PWM control with internal type-three compensation, eliminating external compensation components. Its dual-rail architecture separates AVIN (3.0–5.5 V control supply) from PVIN (1.5–5.5 V power input), supporting flexible system-level power sequencing.
Switching operation uses integrated high-side and low-side N-channel MOSFETs (RDS(ON) = 40 mΩ / 32 mΩ @ 3 A), operating at a fixed 550 kHz frequency with duty cycle range 0–100%. Soft-start is controlled via external capacitor on SS pin, with internal 450 kΩ pullup enabling precise startup timing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Factory-set 1.5 V ±1.13% (min/max over temp), verified at SNS pin in closed-loop configuration |
| Max Output Current | 3 A continuous load capability with thermal foldback protection above 125°C junction temperature |
| Input Voltage Range | AVIN: 3.0–5.5 V; PVIN: 1.5–5.5 V - enables split-rail operation for optimized efficiency and noise isolation |
| Switching Frequency | 550 kHz nominal (325–725 kHz range), enabling compact magnetics and predictable EMI profile |
| Quiescent Current | 0.85–2 mA operating; 12–50 µA in shutdown - supports battery-backed or always-on systems |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 38 °C/W (MXA14A package), dependent on PCB copper area under exposed pad |
| Protection Features | UVLO (2.47–3.0 V AVIN threshold), thermal shutdown (165°C, 10°C hysteresis), and peak current limit (3.6–5 A) |
Pinout & Package
LM2853MH-1.5 is housed in a 14-pin HTSSOP package (TI drawing PWP, JEDEC MO-153 variant) with exposed thermal pad (EP) internally connected to GND. The package requires soldering the EP to a dedicated PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (AVIN) | Control circuit supply input | Provides bias for internal logic, reference, and error amplifier; must be ≥3.0 V for enable and regulation |
| 2 (EN) | Enable control input | Active-high; internally pulled up; drives device into shutdown when pulled below 25% of AVIN |
| 3 (SGND) | Low-noise analog ground | Reference return for feedback and control circuits; must be isolated from PGND until single-point tie |
| 4 (SS) | Soft-start timing node | Connects to external capacitor (1–50 nF); sets output ramp time via internal 450 kΩ current source |
| 5, 12, 13 (NC) | No-connect terminals | Must be tied to SGND or PGND per layout guidelines; not internally bonded |
| 6, 7 (PVIN) | Power switch supply input | Feeds high-side/low-side FETs; accepts lower voltage than AVIN (e.g., 3.3 V PVIN with 5 V AVIN) |
| 8, 9 (SW) | Switch node | Drives external inductor; experiences full PVIN-to-GND swing at 550 kHz; requires short, wide trace |
| 10, 11 (PGND) | Power ground return | High-current return path for FETs and inductor; must connect directly to EP and bulk capacitor |
| 14 (SNS) | Output voltage sense input | High-impedance feedback node; connects to resistor divider or direct to load for remote sensing |
| EP (Exposed Pad) | Thermal & ground connection | Internally tied to GND but not primary ground path; requires ≥100 mm² copper pour for θJA spec |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Power Stage | 40 mΩ high-side + 32 mΩ low-side N-MOSFETs eliminate external switches and reduce BOM count |
| Type-Three Compensation | On-chip compensation network eliminates external op-amp and RC components, simplifying loop stability |
| Split-Rail Input Architecture | Independent AVIN/PVIN supplies allow optimized noise isolation and sequencing in multi-rail systems |
| Factory-Programmed Output | 1.5 V output set permanently in EEPROM - no external resistors required for feedback network |
| Robust Protection Suite | UVLO, thermal shutdown with hysteresis, and cycle-by-cycle current limiting ensure safe operation under fault |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54318RTER | 3 A, 2.95–6 V input, adjustable output (0.8–3.3 V), 2.5 MHz switching, integrated compensation | Higher frequency enables smaller passives but increases EMI sensitivity; lacks factory-programmed 1.5 V option | Select when board space is constrained and adjustable output is acceptable; requires external feedback resistors |
| MP2315GJ-Z | 3 A, 4.5–28 V input, 1.5 V fixed output, 500 kHz, no split-rail support, lower thermal resistance (θJA = 30 °C/W) | Wider input range suits 12 V intermediate bus; no AVIN/PVIN separation limits noise-sensitive designs | Select for cost-sensitive industrial applications where input exceeds 5.5 V and split-rail isolation is unnecessary |
Compared with TPS54318RTER and MP2315GJ-Z, LM2853MH-1.5 uniquely combines factory-trimmed 1.5 V output, dual-rail input flexibility, and proven SIMPLE SWITCHER® reliability for FPGA/DSP core rails - avoiding resistor tolerances and layout compromises inherent in adjustable alternatives.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance specification for LM2853MH-1.5?
The LM2853MH-1.5 has a guaranteed output voltage tolerance of ±1.13% over temperature (−40°C to +125°C), corresponding to 1.4663 V to 1.5337 V at 25°C. This tolerance is measured at the SNS pin in closed-loop operation with AVIN = PVIN = 5 V, and reflects factory trimming of the internal reference and feedback divider.
Does LM2853MH-1.5 require external compensation components?
No, LM2853MH-1.5 integrates a complete type-three compensation network on-die, eliminating the need for external op-amps, capacitors, or resistors. This simplifies design and improves stability across recommended inductor (4.7–6.8 µH) and output capacitor (120–220 µF) ranges specified in the datasheet.
Can LM2853MH-1.5 operate with different voltages on AVIN and PVIN pins?
Yes, LM2853MH-1.5 supports split-rail operation: AVIN may be set to 5 V for control logic while PVIN is supplied at 3.3 V for the power stage. PVIN must always be ≤ AVIN, and both rails must remain within their respective absolute maximum ratings (AVIN: 3.0–5.5 V; PVIN: 1.5–5.5 V).
What is the recommended soft-start capacitor value for LM2853MH-1.5?
A 2.2 nF ceramic capacitor is recommended for LM2853MH-1.5 to achieve ~3 ms startup time. The SS pin sources a 2.2 µA current through an internal 450 kΩ resistor; using the RC time constant (τ = R × C), three τ periods yield 95% reference voltage settling. Values between 1 nF and 50 nF are supported.
Is LM2853MH-1.5 pin-compatible with other LM2853 variants like LM2853MH-1.2 or LM2853MH-3.3?
Yes, all LM2853MH-x variants share identical HTSSOP-14 (PWP) packaging, pinout, and footprint. Only the factory-programmed output voltage differs; no PCB changes are needed when substituting between LM2853MH-1.5, LM2853MH-1.2, or LM2853MH-3.3 in existing designs.
