Product details
Overview
LM3310SQX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a step-up PWM DC/DC converter with integrated operational amplifier and gate pulse modulation (GPM) switch, designed for TFT-LCD bias supply generation. It delivers up to 2 A output current with 0.18 Ω internal switch RDSON, supports adjustable boost output up to 20 V, operates from 2.5 V to 7 V input, and features pin-selectable 660 kHz / 1.28 MHz switching frequency.
For engineers reviewing the LM3310SQX/NOPB datasheet, LM3310SQX/NOPB pinout, LM3310SQX/NOPB application, or LM3310SQX/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include GPM timing control (VFLK/VDPM), dual-domain op-amp sourcing/sinking capability (±135 mA), soft-start programmability via SS pin, input undervoltage protection thresholds (2.4 V ON / 2.1 V OFF), and thermal shutdown at 145 °C with 20 °C hysteresis.
Technical Context
The LM3310SQX/NOPB integrates three functional blocks: a current-mode PWM boost regulator with internal 2 A NMOS switch, a rail-to-rail op-amp with AVIN supply (4–14 V) and ±135 mA drive capability, and a gate pulse modulation circuit supporting VGH input (5–30 V) and generating VGHM output for TFT gate driver timing control. The GPM block responds to VFLK (LCD on/off signal) and VDPM (enable) inputs, with internal PMOS/NMOS switching controlled by VGH voltage level.
Switching operation uses fixed-frequency current-mode control with selectable 660 kHz or 1.28 MHz via FREQ pin, maximum duty cycle of 91% at 660 kHz, and soft-start initiated by ISS current charging external CSS capacitor. Feedback regulation targets 1.263 V at FB pin, and error amplifier compensation is applied at VC pin with transconductance of 26–133 µmho.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Boost Output Voltage | Adjustable up to 20 V via resistor divider on FB pin; regulated to 1.263 V reference ensures stable output across line/load variations. |
| Switch Current Limit | 2.0–2.6 A typical; enables reliable inductor sizing for 2 A continuous load while limiting peak stress during startup or overload. |
| Internal Switch RDSON | 0.18 Ω typical at 500 mA; minimizes conduction loss and improves efficiency in portable TFT bias applications. |
| Op-Amp Output Current | Sources 90–195 mA / sinks 105–175 mA; sufficient to drive high-capacitance TFT panel bias lines without external buffers. |
| Switching Frequency | Selectable 660 kHz or 1.28 MHz via FREQ pin; higher frequency allows smaller L/C components; lower frequency improves light-load efficiency. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 7 V; compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V), dual-cell alkaline (2.4–3.2 V), and regulated 3.3/5 V rails. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at 145 °C junction temperature with ~20 °C hysteresis; protects device during sustained overloads or poor PCB thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
LM3310SQX/NOPB is housed in a thermally enhanced 24-lead WQFN package (RTW0024A), with exposed die attach pad (DAP) internally connected to ground and requiring direct connection to AGND and PGND planes for optimal thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Boost converter and GPM power input | Primary supply for switching regulator and GPM block; must be decoupled near pin with low-ESR ceramic capacitor. |
| SW | Boost power switch node | Connects internal NMOS drain to external inductor; high dv/dt node requiring short, low-inductance routing to PGND. |
| FB | Output voltage feedback input | Monitors divided output voltage; 1.263 V reference sets regulation point; high-impedance input (27–160 nA bias). |
| SS | Soft-start timing control | ISS = 8.5–13.5 µA current source charges external CSS; TSS ≈ CSS × 1.24 V / ISS determines ramp time. |
| SHDN | Active-low enable control | Pulling below 0.4 V disables all blocks; threshold is 1.4 V (typical) for rising edge; supports system-level power sequencing. |
| AVIN | Op-amp analog supply | 4–14 V dedicated rail; bypass directly to AGND with ceramic cap; RC filter (5–20 Ω + cap) recommended if sourced from boost output. |
| POS/NEG/OUT | Op-amp differential input/output | Supports unity-gain buffer or gain configurations; output swings rail-to-rail; requires external compensation for stability with low-C loads. |
| VGH/VGHM/VDPM/VFLK | GPM control and output terminals | VGH (5–30 V) powers GPM; VGHM is modulated output; VDPM enables GPM; VFLK controls LCD on/off timing sequence. |
| AGND/PGND | Analog and power ground | Must be connected directly to DAP; AGND handles analog circuits; PGND carries switch return current; star-point connection critical. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated gate pulse modulation (GPM) | Generates timing-controlled VGHM output synchronized to VFLK/VDPM signals-eliminates need for discrete timing logic in TFT bias supplies. |
| 2 A, 0.18 Ω internal NMOS switch | Reduces external component count and board area; enables compact 2 A boost designs without external MOSFET or driver. |
| Pin-selectable 660 kHz / 1.28 MHz switching | Allows trade-off between component size (higher fSW) and efficiency (lower fSW), without changing layout or BOM. |
| Rail-to-rail op-amp with ±135 mA drive | Directly drives high-capacitance TFT panel lines (e.g., VCOM, gamma buffers); avoids secondary amplifiers and associated noise/latency. |
| Programmable soft-start via SS pin | External capacitor sets inrush current limit during startup-prevents input rail collapse and reduces stress on input capacitors and inductor. |
| Input undervoltage lockout (UVP) | Prevents erratic operation during brown-out: switches off below 2.1 V (OFF threshold) and only resumes above 2.4 V (ON threshold). |
Applications
| TFT-LCD Panel Bias Supply | Portable Display Power Management |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-up DC/DC converter with integrated analog functions applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61088RHLR | Higher 2.5 A switch current, no integrated op-amp or GPM; 2.7–12 V input; 600 kHz–2.2 MHz adjustable fSW. | Requires external op-amp and timing logic for TFT bias; better suited for general-purpose boost where analog integration is not needed. | Select when higher output current (>2 A) or wider input range is required, and GPM/timing functionality is implemented externally. |
| LM3429MMX/NOPB | LED driver controller (current-mode), no boost converter or op-amp; supports external MOSFET; 4.5–42 V input. | Designed for constant-current LED strings-not suitable for voltage-regulated TFT bias or analog signal conditioning. | Not a functional substitute; only consider if redesigning for LED backlight instead of panel bias generation. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with LM3310SQX/NOPB?
The LM3310SQX/NOPB supports an adjustable boost output voltage up to 20 V, set by a resistor divider on the FB pin referencing the internal 1.263 V feedback voltage. This allows precise configuration for TFT-LCD VGH requirements while maintaining regulation accuracy of ±2.5% over temperature and line variations.
How does the GPM function operate in LM3310SQX/NOPB?
The GPM block in LM3310SQX/NOPB generates a modulated VGHM output using VGH (5–30 V supply) and timing inputs VFLK (LCD on/off) and VDPM (GPM enable). When VDPM is high, VGHM follows VFLK transitions; when VDPM is low, VGHM discharges through an internal 1 kΩ resistor-enabling precise synchronization of gate driver timing without external logic.
Can the op-amp in LM3310SQX/NOPB drive capacitive loads without oscillation?
Yes-the LM3310SQX/NOPB op-amp remains stable driving capacitive loads ≥50 Ω in series with 4.7 nF (typical TFT-LCD panel impedance). For lighter loads, external compensation (e.g., 50 Ω + 4.7 nF to AGND) is required to maintain phase margin and prevent oscillation, as confirmed in the datasheet's stability guidelines.
What is the purpose of the SS pin on LM3310SQX/NOPB?
The SS pin on LM3310SQX/NOPB controls soft-start duration via an external capacitor (CSS). An internal 8.5–13.5 µA current source charges CSS until reaching ~1.24 V, linearly ramping the FB reference to limit inrush current. TSS ≈ CSS × 1.24 V / ISS enables precise startup timing without additional circuitry.
Does LM3310SQX/NOPB include protection against input undervoltage conditions?
Yes-LM3310SQX/NOPB incorporates input undervoltage protection (UVP) with distinct ON (2.4 V) and OFF (2.1 V) thresholds. During startup, it prevents switching until VIN exceeds 2.4 V; during operation, it disables all blocks if VIN drops below 2.1 V, then re-enables only after VIN rises above 2.4 V-ensuring clean, glitch-free power sequencing.
