Product details
Overview
LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 4-A, 1-MHz synchronous buck regulator with input voltage range 2.95 V to 5.5 V, adjustable output down to 0.8 V, and integrated 35-mΩ high-side/34-mΩ low-side MOSFETs. It delivers precise POL regulation for FPGA core supplies in portable computing and communications infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB datasheet, LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB pinout, LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB application, or LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include confirmed 1-MHz switching frequency, pre-biased start-up capability, ±150-mV enable hysteresis, 230-µA shutdown current, and HTSSOP-16 exposed-pad thermal performance.
Technical Context
The LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB implements voltage-mode PWM control with partial internal compensation, supporting ceramic or electrolytic output capacitors via external RCOMP/CCOMP/RFB2 network. Its lossless cycle-by-cycle peak current limit triggers at 6 A nominal and enforces four-cycle pulse skipping during overcurrent events.
Functional modes include shutdown (EN < 1.08 V), soft-start/track (SS ramping to 0.8 V), and normal regulation. Thermal shutdown activates at 165°C with 10°C hysteresis, and UVLO on AVIN ensures safe turn-on only above 2.6 V with 25–375 mV hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.95 V to 5.5 V - supports direct regulation from 3.3-V or 5-V system rails without intermediate stages. |
| Max Output Current | 4 A - sustains full load under worst-case thermal conditions with proper PCB copper area. |
| Switching Frequency | 1 MHz (±160 kHz) - enables compact 1-µH inductors and reduces solution footprint by ~40% vs 500-kHz variant. |
| RDS(ON) High-Side | 35 mΩ (typ) - limits conduction loss to ≤560 mW at 4 A, critical for >90% efficiency at 1.2-V/4-A output. |
| Reference Voltage | 0.8 V ±1% - sets output accuracy baseline; FB pin tolerance directly determines final VOUT error budget. |
| Soft-Start Current | 2 µA - defines linear VOUT ramp rate; 10 nF CSS yields 4-ms startup, preventing inrush into pre-biased loads. |
| Shutdown Current | 230 µA - minimizes standby power in battery-backed systems; enables rapid wake-up without capacitor recharging delay. |
Pinout & Package
LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB uses a 16-pin HTSSOP package with 4.40 mm × 5.00 mm body size and thermally enhanced exposed pad connected to PGND. The exposed pad must be soldered to a dedicated PCB ground plane for optimal thermal resistance (RθJB = 17.1°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| NC (1, 8, 9) | Reserved factory pins | Must be tied to AGND/PGND to ensure stable bias and prevent floating node noise coupling. |
| PGND (2, 3, 4) | Power ground return | Low-impedance path for high di/dt switch currents; requires local star connection to minimize ground bounce. |
| PVIN (5, 6, 7) | Main power input | Connects to input bulk capacitor; multiple pins reduce trace resistance and improve current sharing for 4-A operation. |
| AVIN (10) | Analog supply rail | Provides clean bias for control circuitry; RC filter (1 Ω + 0.1 µF) isolates noise from PVIN to maintain reference stability. |
| EN (11) | Enable control input | Active-high with 1.23 V threshold and 150 mV hysteresis; allows precise sequencing with external resistor divider. |
| SW (12, 13) | Switch node output | Drives external inductor; dual pins reduce parasitic inductance and EMI during 1-MHz transitions. |
| SS (14) | Soft-start/tracking control | 2-µA current source charges external capacitor; also accepts resistor divider for output voltage tracking of master supply. |
| AGND (15) | Analog ground reference | Quiet ground for error amplifier and reference; must be separated from PGND until single-point connection to avoid noise injection. |
| FB (16) | Feedback sensing input | Connects to resistor divider; 0.8-V reference enables accurate VOUT setting from 0.8 V to near VIN with minimal divider error. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pre-biased start-up | Enables safe power-up when output is already biased (e.g., FPGA I/O rail); prevents reverse current flow through synchronous rectifier. |
| External soft-start control | Linear VOUT ramp eliminates inrush stress on downstream capacitors and avoids brownout in multi-rail systems. |
| 100% duty cycle capability | Allows dropout operation down to VOUT ≈ VIN – 0.2 V, extending usable input range in low-delta-V applications. |
| Integrated protection | Combines UVLO (2.6 V), overcurrent (6 A peak), and thermal shutdown (165°C) with automatic recovery-no external fault management required. |
| Partial internal compensation | Reduces external components to three (RCOMP, CCOMP, RFB2) while maintaining stability across ceramic/electrolytic output capacitor types. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54332DR | 3.5-A rating, 1-MHz fixed frequency, 3.5-V to 28-V input range, no pre-biased start-up | Suitable for higher-input industrial rails but lacks pre-bias capability required for FPGA hot-swap | Select when input exceeds 5.5 V or pre-bias is not needed; verify loop stability with external compensation. |
| MP2315GJ-Z | 4-A rating, 1-MHz frequency, 4.5-V to 28-V input, integrated soft-start but no tracking function | Designed for wide-input automotive/industrial use; missing SS pin tracking for multi-rail sequencing | Choose for cost-sensitive non-sequencing applications; confirm thermal derating at 4 A in HTSSOP footprint. |
Compared with TPS54332DR and MP2315GJ-Z, LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB uniquely combines 4-A capability, 1-MHz switching, pre-biased start-up, and SS pin tracking in a 2.95–5.5-V input range-making it optimal for portable and FPGA-centric designs where rail sequencing and hot-plug safety are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the confirmed switching frequency option for LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB?
The LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB is specifically the 1-MHz variant of the LM2854 family, with guaranteed operation between 800 kHz and 1160 kHz across temperature and input voltage. This is distinct from the LM2854MHX-500/NOPB (500-kHz version) and is confirmed by TI's orderable part numbering and datasheet revision SNVS560E Table 6.5.
Does LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB support pre-biased start-up, and how does it behave?
Yes, LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB supports pre-biased start-up: when enabled with an existing output voltage > 0 V, it will not sink current or pull the rail low. Instead, it waits until the SS pin voltage exceeds 0.8 V before engaging regulation-preventing damage to downstream loads connected via parasitic paths, as verified in Section 7.3.5 of the datasheet.
What is the thermal resistance specification for LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB in its HTSSOP-16 package?
LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB has a junction-to-board thermal resistance (RθJB) of 17.1°C/W and junction-to-ambient (RθJA) of 38.4°C/W when mounted on a standard 2-layer JEDEC test board with the exposed pad soldered to a 1-in² copper area, per Section 6.4 of the datasheet.
Can LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB operate with 100% duty cycle, and under what conditions?
Yes, LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB supports 100% duty cycle operation-meaning it can maintain regulation even when VIN drops close to VOUT (e.g., 1.2-V output from 1.4-V input). This occurs when the error amplifier drives the high-side FET fully on, bypassing the PWM comparator, as documented in Section 1 Features and Section 7.3.9.
What external components are required for basic LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB operation beyond input/output capacitors and inductor?
Minimum external components for LM2854MHX-1000/NOPB include: (1) feedback resistors (RFB1/RFB2) to set VOUT, (2) soft-start capacitor (CSS), (3) compensation network (RCOMP, CCOMP, RFB2), and (4) AVIN RC filter (1 Ω + 0.1 µF). These are mandatory per Sections 8.2.2.1–8.2.2.3 and Figure 15.
