Product details
Overview
LM34910CSDX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a high-voltage (8V–50V input), 1.25A valley-current-mode synchronous buck switching regulator with integrated 55V N-channel MOSFET, hysteretic control architecture, and no loop compensation required. It delivers stable 2.5V feedback regulation, operates at constant frequency across line/load variations, and supports telecommunication POL and secondary post-regulation applications.
For engineers reviewing the LM34910CSDX/NOPB datasheet, LM34910CSDX/NOPB pinout, LM34910CSDX/NOPB application, or LM34910CSDX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.25A valley current limit, WSON-10 thermal pad package, 280 ns minimum off-time, 7V start-up regulator output, and RON-based on-time programming for frequency stability under varying VIN.
Technical Context
The LM34910CSDX/NOPB implements a hysteretic on-time control scheme where the buck switch on-duration is inversely proportional to VIN and set by an external RON resistor, enabling near-constant switching frequency (e.g., ~730 kHz at VIN = 50V, RON = 200 kΩ). Regulation relies on direct comparison of FB voltage to a precision 2.5V internal reference, with overvoltage protection triggered at 2.875V.
Current limiting occurs during the off-time via valley detection at ISEN, with threshold fixed at 1.25A and response time ≤150 ns. Thermal shutdown activates at 175°C with 20°C hysteresis, and gate drive UVLO ensures reliable switching down to BST–SW = 3.0V. The integrated start-up regulator delivers 7.0V (±0.4V) at up to 9 mA from VIN.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 8.0V to 50V - supports wide-range industrial and telecom inputs; absolute max 55V |
| Output Current Capability | 1.25A valley current limit - sets maximum sustainable load without foldback or hiccup |
| Feedback Reference | 2.5V ±60 mV - defines regulated output via external resistor divider (e.g., VOUT = 2.5 × (R1+R2)/R2) |
| Switch RDS(on) | 0.45 Ω typical - determines conduction loss and thermal rise at full load |
| Minimum Off-Time | 280 ns - ensures sufficient bootstrap capacitor recharge and limits max switching frequency |
| Start-Up Regulator Output | 7.0V ±0.4V - powers internal circuitry; can be bypassed with external 8–14V supply to reduce dissipation |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | 175°C - protects die integrity; resumes operation at ≈155°C after hysteresis |
Pinout & Package
LM34910CSDX/NOPB is housed in a thermally enhanced 4 mm × 4 mm WSON-10 package with exposed thermal pad for PCB heat sinking. Pin 1 is SW (switching node); pin 10 is VIN. The package meets RoHS and is rated for −40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (1) | Switching node | Connects to inductor, freewheeling diode, and BST capacitor; carries high dv/dt and peak currents up to 3.5A |
| BST (2) | Bootstrap supply | Drives high-side gate via 0.022 µF capacitor to SW; internal diode recharges it each off-cycle |
| ISEN (3) | Valley current sense input | Detects recirculating current during off-time; triggers shutdown if >1.25A; connects to sense resistor to SGND |
| SGND (4) | Sense ground return | Provides low-impedance return path for current-sense resistor; separate from RTN to avoid noise coupling |
| RTN (5) | Circuit ground reference | Reference for internal comparators and logic; must be connected to system ground with minimal impedance |
| FB (6) | Feedback input | Compares output voltage (via resistor divider) to 2.5V reference; requires ≥25 mV ripple for stable hysteretic operation |
| SS (7) | Soft-start control | Internal 11.5 µA current source charges external capacitor to ramp output voltage; grounded during fault conditions |
| RON/SD (8) | On-time programming & shutdown | Resistor to VIN sets on-time; grounding disables regulator and resets soft-start |
| VCC (9) | Start-up regulator output | 7.0V supply for internal bias; can be externally powered (8–14V) to reduce dropout losses |
| VIN (10) | Main input supply | Accepts 8–50V DC; transient-rated to 55V; powers both switch and internal regulator |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No loop compensation required | Hysteretic control eliminates external compensation network, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity |
| Ultra-fast transient response | On-time control and comparator-based regulation achieve sub-microsecond load step recovery |
| Adjustable output voltage | Set via two-resistor divider on FB pin; supports outputs from 2.5V to >20V depending on R1/R2 ratio |
| Thermally enhanced WSON-10 | Exposed pad enables direct thermal connection to PCB ground plane, improving power handling at 1.25A |
| Integrated start-up regulator | Eliminates need for external bias supply; self-powered from VIN, simplifying high-input-voltage designs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5164QDDARQ1 | 4.5–65V input, 1A continuous, current-mode control, requires external compensation | Designed for AEC-Q100 automotive qualification; includes spread-spectrum and enhanced EMI features | Choose when automotive qualification, wider VIN, or lower quiescent current (<100 µA) is required; not pin-compatible |
| TPS54202HDDCR | 4.5–28V input, 2A, D-CAP3 control, integrated FETs, no external compensation | Optimized for low-VIN, high-efficiency POL; lacks high-voltage capability and valley current sensing | Prefer for sub-28V systems needing higher current and smaller solution size; incompatible with >28V inputs |
Compared with LM34910CSDX/NOPB, LM5164QDDARQ1 offers broader input range and automotive qualification but adds complexity with external compensation, while TPS54202HDDCR delivers higher current at lower VIN but cannot replace it in 48V telecom or industrial applications due to voltage limitation.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM34910CSDX/NOPB?
The LM34910CSDX/NOPB has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 55V, with recommended continuous operation from 8.0V to 50V. Exceeding 50V may trigger overvoltage stress on internal components, and operation above 55V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings. Transient spikes up to 55V are tolerated per datasheet specifications.
Does LM34910CSDX/NOPB require external compensation components?
No, LM34910CSDX/NOPB uses a hysteretic on-time control architecture that eliminates the need for external compensation networks. Its regulation relies on direct comparison of FB voltage to a 2.5V internal reference and programmable on-time via RON, simplifying design and improving transient response without loop stability concerns.
How is the switching frequency determined for LM34910CSDX/NOPB?
The LM34910CSDX/NOPB switching frequency is set by the on-time (determined by VIN and external RON resistor) and minimum off-time (280 ns). For example, with VIN = 24V and RON = 200 kΩ, typical on-time is 2.75 µs, yielding ≈300 kHz. Frequency remains relatively constant across line and load due to inverse VIN–on-time relationship.
Can LM34910CSDX/NOPB be used in automotive applications?
LM34910CSDX/NOPB is not AEC-Q100 qualified and lacks automotive-specific features like extended temperature validation or enhanced EMI control. While it operates from −40°C to +125°C and handles 50V inputs, TI recommends LM5164QDDARQ1 for automotive use. LM34910CSDX/NOPB is intended for industrial and telecom systems.
What is the purpose of the ISEN pin on LM34910CSDX/NOPB?
The ISEN pin on LM34910CSDX/NOPB senses recirculating current during the off-time to implement valley current limiting at 1.25A. It connects to the low-side of an external current-sense resistor tied to SGND. When current exceeds the threshold, the device extends off-time to prevent overcurrent, ensuring robust short-circuit and overload protection without foldback.
