Product details
Overview
LM3311SQX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a highly integrated step-up DC/DC converter with embedded 2A/0.18Ω power switch, adjustable LDO (2.5–7V input, up to 300mA), rail-to-rail op-amp (135mA sink/source), and gate pulse modulation (GPM) switch for TFT LCD bias control. It operates from 2.5V to 7V input, delivers up to 20V boost output, and supports dual switching frequencies (660kHz or 1.28MHz) in a 24-pin WQFN package - used in portable TFT-LCD power management.
For engineers reviewing the LM3311SQX/NOPB datasheet, LM3311SQX/NOPB pinout, LM3311SQX/NOPB application, or LM3311SQX/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include its integrated GPM timing interface (VFLK/VDPM), LDO output adjustability via ADJ pin, soft-start programmability via SS capacitor, and thermal/UVLO protection thresholds confirmed across −40°C to +125°C junction range.
Technical Context
The LM3311SQX/NOPB implements a current-mode PWM boost regulator with internal 2A NMOS switch and 0.18Ω typical RDS(ON), enabling high-efficiency step-up conversion up to 20V. Its dual-frequency selection (660kHz/1.28MHz via FREQ pin) allows optimization of external inductor and capacitor size while maintaining stable regulation under load transients.
It integrates four functional blocks on-die: a boost controller with VC compensation node and FB feedback (1.263V reference), an LDO with ADJ-sensed output voltage, a rail-to-rail op-amp with 3.3MHz GBW and 50V/µs slew rate, and a dedicated GPM block accepting VFLK timing signals and driving VGHM with programmable RE/CE network - all sharing AGND/PGND with DAP thermal pad connection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Boost Output Range | Adjustable up to 20V via resistor divider on FB pin; 1.263V internal reference enables precise output setting. |
| Switch Current Limit | 2.0A minimum (typ. 2.6A); supports high-current inductor selection without external current sensing. |
| LDO Output Current | Up to 300mA at <674mV dropout (350mA load, 2.8V out); stable with ≥2.2µF ceramic output capacitor. |
| Op-Amp Output Drive | 135mA sink/source (standard version); sufficient for direct gate driving or analog signal conditioning in display bias rails. |
| GPM Input Voltage Range | VGH = 5V to 30V; enables compatibility with wide-range TFT panel gate drivers without level-shifting. |
| Thermal Protection | Activates at 145°C junction temperature with ~20°C hysteresis; disables all blocks (boost, LDO, op-amp, GPM) during shutdown. |
| Operating Temp Range | −40°C to +125°C junction; validated across full range for automotive infotainment and industrial portable displays. |
Pinout & Package
LM3311SQX/NOPB uses a 24-lead WQFN package (RTW0024A) with exposed thermal pad (DAP), θJA = 37°C/W. AGND and PGND must be directly connected to DAP for optimal thermal and noise performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW | Boost power switch node | Connects internal 2A NMOS drain to external inductor; requires low-inductance path to PGND. |
| FB | Boost output voltage feedback | 1.263V reference input; sets output via RFB1/RFB2 divider; high-impedance (27nA bias). |
| ADJ | LDO output voltage sense | 1.263V reference input; configures LDO output via RADJ1/RADJ2; 28nA bias current. |
| VGHM | GPM gate driver output | Drives external high-side PMOS gate; voltage follows VGH minus drop across internal VGHM-RE path. |
| VFLK | TFT on/off timing control | Accepts logic-level timing signal (0.4V/1.4V thresholds) from LCD timing controller to enable/disable GPM. |
| SS | Soft-start timing control | Charged by 11µA current source; CSS value sets startup ramp time (TSS = CSS × 1.24V / 11µA). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated GPM block | Eliminates need for discrete gate driver IC and timing logic; reduces BOM count and layout area in TFT bias supplies. |
| Adjustable soft-start | External capacitor on SS pin allows precise control of inrush current during power-up, preventing input rail collapse. |
| Dual-frequency selection | FREQ pin selects 660kHz (lower EMI, larger inductors) or 1.28MHz (smaller passives, faster transient response). |
| Rail-to-rail op-amp | Supports full-supply swing output with 135mA drive capability - usable as buffer, comparator, or active filter in analog subsystems. |
| Input UVLO with hysteresis | Enables reliable start-up only above 2.4V (on-threshold) and prevents oscillation near brown-out with 0.2V hysteresis (off-threshold = 2.2V). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-rail display power management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS65136RGER | Single-chip solution with dual boost + dual LDO + GPM; no integrated op-amp; fixed 1.2MHz switching. | Targeted specifically at AMOLED bias; lacks rail-to-rail op-amp for analog subsystem support. | Select when AMOLED panel timing and dual-rail generation dominate requirements over analog signal conditioning. |
| MAX17104ETL+ | Includes boost + LDO + GPM + op-amp but uses external MOSFET for high-current boost; 16-pin TQFN. | Requires external 2A switch and gate driver; higher BOM cost and layout complexity than fully integrated LM3311SQX/NOPB. | Select when thermal constraints require remote power switch placement or when legacy MAX17104 footprint compatibility is mandatory. |

FAQ
What is the maximum boost output voltage supported by the LM3311SQX/NOPB?
The LM3311SQX/NOPB supports an adjustable boost output voltage up to 20V, set via a resistor divider on the FB pin using its internal 1.263V reference. This enables direct generation of standard TFT-LCD VGH voltages without external post-regulation, and the 2A/0.18Ω internal switch ensures stable operation even under high-current loads typical in display bias rails.
How does the LM3311SQX/NOPB implement gate pulse modulation for TFT displays?
The LM3311SQX/NOPB implements gate pulse modulation through dedicated pins: VFLK accepts timing signals from the LCD controller, VDPM enables/disables the GPM block, and VGHM drives the external high-side PMOS gate. With VGH input ranging from 5V to 30V and programmable RE/CE network, LM3311SQX/NOPB precisely controls gate pulse width and timing without external logic or drivers.
Can the op-amp in the LM3311SQX/NOPB drive capacitive loads such as LCD segment lines?
Yes, the op-amp in the LM3311SQX/NOPB is rated for rail-to-rail output swing and delivers 135mA sink/source current (standard version), making it suitable for driving moderate capacitive loads like LCD segment buffers or gamma correction DAC outputs. Its 3.3MHz gain-bandwidth and 50V/µs slew rate support stable operation with ≤100pF loads; for heavier capacitance, external isolation resistor is recommended per TI application notes.
What thermal protection features does the LM3311SQX/NOPB include?
The LM3311SQX/NOPB includes thermal shutdown that activates at 145°C junction temperature with ~20°C hysteresis. When triggered, it disables all functional blocks - boost converter, LDO, op-amp, and GPM - until die temperature falls below ~125°C. This protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking, and the exposed DAP pad must be soldered to a thermal plane to maintain θJA = 37°C/W as specified.
Is the LM3311SQX/NOPB compatible with ceramic output capacitors for the LDO section?
Yes, the LM3311SQX/NOPB LDO is explicitly designed for stability with ceramic output capacitors as low as 2.2µF, eliminating the need for bulkier tantalum or aluminum electrolytic types. Its internal compensation ensures phase margin >60° across load currents from 0 to 300mA and input voltages from 2.5V to 7V, simplifying layout and improving transient response in space-constrained portable designs.
