Product details
Overview
LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 3-A, 550-kHz synchronous buck regulator with factory-programmed 1.5 V output, 40 mΩ high-side and 32 mΩ low-side MOSFETs, internal type-three compensation, and 12 µA shutdown current. It operates from 3 V to 5.5 V input and delivers precise point-of-load regulation for FPGA core supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB datasheet, LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB pinout, LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB application, or LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, thermal performance data (RθJA = 38 °C/W), soft-start configuration guidance, and validated alternative options for 1.5 V DC-DC conversion in space-constrained industrial and communications systems.
Technical Context
The LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB implements voltage-mode control with fixed 550 kHz switching frequency and integrated PWM controller, power switches, and type-three compensation network-eliminating external compensation components. Its dual-rail capability allows independent AVIN (3–5.5 V) and PVIN (1.5–5.5 V) supplies, enabling optimized efficiency in split-rail designs.
Protection features include thermal shutdown at 165 °C (10 °C hysteresis), UVLO on AVIN (2.47 V rising threshold), and peak current limiting at 3.6–5 A. The device supports soft-start via external capacitor (1–50 nF) tied to SS pin, with internal 450 kΩ pullup enabling precise startup timing control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Factory-set 1.5 V ±1.12% over –40°C to 125°C junction temperature |
| Max Output Current | 3 A continuous load with internal 40 mΩ/32 mΩ synchronous MOSFETs |
| Input Voltage Range | 3 V to 5.5 V on AVIN; 1.5 V to 5.5 V on PVIN - enables flexible split-rail operation |
| Switching Frequency | 550 kHz nominal (325–725 kHz range) - balances efficiency, size, and EMI |
| Quiescent Current | 12 µA in shutdown mode - critical for battery-backed or always-on systems |
| Junction-to-Ambient RθJA | 38 °C/W in HTSSOP-14 package - requires minimal PCB copper area for thermal management |
| Soft-Start Resistance | 450 kΩ internal DAC resistor - sets RC time constant with external CSS capacitor |
Pinout & Package
LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB uses a 14-pin HTSSOP (PWP) package with 5.00 mm × 4.40 mm body and exposed thermal pad internally connected to GND. The exposed pad must be soldered to an external ground plane for thermal and electrical performance but cannot serve as primary GND connection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (AVIN) | Control circuit supply | Provides bias for internal logic; must be ≥3 V and ≥PVIN for proper operation |
| 2 (EN) | Enable input | Active-high; internally pulled up - device powers on by default unless driven low |
| 3 (SGND) | Low-noise analog ground | Separate return path for error amplifier and reference to minimize noise coupling |
| 4 (SS) | Soft-start control | External capacitor sets startup ramp time; 1–50 nF range ensures controlled inrush |
| 5,12,13 (NC) | No-connect | Must be tied to ground per datasheet - not floating or left unconnected |
| 6,7 (PVIN) | Power switch supply | Feeds high-current FETs; requires low-ESR bulk capacitor placed adjacent to pins |
| 8,9 (SW) | Switch node | Connects to output inductor; high dV/dt node requiring short, wide trace and EMI mitigation |
| 10,11 (PGND) | Power ground | High-current return for FETs; must tie to SGND at single point near IC |
| 14 (SNS) | Voltage sense input | Monitors regulated output via 200 kΩ divider; connect directly to load for accurate remote sensing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Type-Three Compensation | Eliminates external compensation network - reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity |
| Factory-Programmed Output | 1.5 V output set permanently in EEPROM - no external resistors required for feedback |
| Exposed Thermal Pad (HTSSOP) | Enables 38 °C/W RθJA - supports full 3 A load without heatsink in standard 2-layer PCB |
| Dual-Rail Input Architecture | Independent AVIN/PVIN supplies allow optimization of control logic and power stage efficiency |
| UVLO with Hysteresis | 2.47 V rising threshold + 50–260 mV hysteresis prevents oscillation during brownout conditions |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54302DDCR | 3 A, 1.5 V fixed-output, 500 kHz, 3.5–28 V input - wider VIN range but higher quiescent current (19 µA vs 12 µA) | Preferred for systems with >5.5 V input rails; less suitable for low-VIN battery backup due to minimum 3.5 V requirement | Select when input exceeds 5.5 V or when higher input voltage margin is needed; verify thermal performance with RθJA = 105 °C/W |
| MP2332HGRT-Z | 3 A, adjustable 0.8–6 V output, 500 kHz, 4.5–28 V input - requires external feedback resistors; no factory-programmed 1.5 V option | Used where output voltage flexibility is required across multiple board revisions; adds two resistors and layout complexity | Choose if future designs may require different output voltages; avoid if strict 1.5 V fixed output and minimal BOM are priorities |
Compared with TPS54302DDCR and MP2332HGRT-Z, LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB offers lower shutdown current, tighter output tolerance (±1.12%), and zero-resistor configuration - making it optimal for space-constrained, low-power 3–5.5 V input systems demanding production-ready 1.5 V regulation.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB over temperature?
The LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB maintains output voltage within ±1.12% of 1.5 V (1.4663 V to 1.5337 V) across the full operating junction temperature range of –40°C to 125°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under VOUT parameter for the 1.5 V option.
Does LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB require external feedback resistors?
No, LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB does not require external feedback resistors. Its 1.5 V output is factory-programmed into internal EEPROM and delivered via a fixed 200 kΩ sense divider connected to the SNS pin - eliminating resistor selection, placement, and tolerance errors.
What is the recommended soft-start capacitor value for LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB?
The recommended soft-start capacitor for LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB is 2.2 nF, which yields approximately 3 ms startup time. The device supports 1 nF to 50 nF range; values outside this range risk uncontrolled inrush or failure to start under fault conditions like short circuits.
Can LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB operate with separate AVIN and PVIN supplies?
Yes, LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB supports split-rail operation: AVIN (3–5.5 V) powers control circuitry while PVIN (1.5–5.5 V) powers the power FETs. PVIN must be ≤ AVIN, and output filter components should be selected based on PVIN level per datasheet guidelines.
What thermal performance can be expected from LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB in a standard PCB layout?
In a standard 2-layer PCB with the exposed thermal pad fully soldered to a solid ground plane, LM2853MH-1.5/NOPB achieves a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 38 °C/W. This allows full 3 A continuous operation at ambient temperatures up to 85°C without additional heatsinking.
