Product details
Overview
LM3671MF-1.375 from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output 1.375 V, 600 mA synchronous step-down DC-DC converter optimized for single Li-Ion battery-powered portable electronics. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V input, delivers 16 µA typical quiescent current in PFM mode, features 2 MHz fixed-frequency PWM operation, and requires only three external components: one 2.2 µH inductor and two ceramic capacitors. It powers core logic rails in mobile phones and digital still cameras.
For engineers reviewing the LM3671MF-1.375 datasheet, LM3671MF-1.375 pinout, LM3671MF-1.375 application, or LM3671MF-1.375 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.375 V fixed output, SOT-23-5 package footprint, 0.01 µA shutdown current, automatic PFM/PWM mode switching, and internal synchronous rectification enabling high efficiency at low output voltages.
Technical Context
The LM3671MF-1.375 uses voltage-mode control with input voltage feed-forward to maintain stable regulation across 2.7–5.5 V input. Its internal 0.5 V reference feeds a feedback amplifier that compares against the fixed resistor-divided output, enabling precise 1.375 V regulation (±4% over temperature).
It integrates a PFET high-side switch (380 mΩ typical RDS(ON)) and NFET synchronous rectifier (250 mΩ typical RDS(ON)), supporting peak current limiting at 1020 mA and thermal shutdown at 150°C. Mode transitions-PWM (>~100 mA at VIN=3.6 V), PFM (light load), and shutdown (<0.4 V on EN)-are fully autonomous and require no external control logic.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.375 V ±4% - enables direct powering of 1.35–1.4 V core logic without external feedback resistors. |
| Max Output Current | 600 mA continuous - supports baseband processors and camera ISPs in compact handheld devices. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with single-cell Li-Ion (2.7–4.2 V) and regulated 3.3 V/5 V rails. |
| Switching Frequency | 2 MHz typical - allows use of small 2.2 µH inductors and 4.7 µF/10 µF ceramic capacitors for space-constrained layouts. |
| Quiescent Current | 16 µA typical in PFM mode - extends battery runtime during standby and light-load operation in portable systems. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.01 µA typical - minimizes leakage when system is powered off, critical for always-on sensor nodes. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.5 V internal bandgap - provides stable regulation point for fixed-output variants; eliminates external divider errors. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 package (DBV, 2.92 mm × 2.84 mm × 1.2 mm) with exposed pad for thermal performance. Pinout matches standard LM3671 fixed-output variants and is not interchangeable with adjustable or DSBGA/USON versions.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VIN | Power input | Connects to input filter capacitor; accepts 2.7–5.5 V; must be ≥2.7 V before enabling. |
| 2 GND | Power ground | Main return path for input/output currents; ties to PCB ground plane for EMI and thermal management. |
| 3 EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; device enabled at >1.0 V, shutdown at <0.4 V; must not float. |
| 4 FB | Feedback sense | Internally connected to fixed 1.375 V divider; connects directly to output capacitor for regulation. |
| 5 SW | Switch node | Drives external inductor; carries high di/dt switching current; requires tight layout and ground stitching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal synchronous rectification | Reduces conduction loss vs. Schottky diode; enables >90% efficiency at 300 mA with 3.6 V input → 1.375 V output. |
| Automatic PFM/PWM mode switching | Eliminates need for external mode control; maintains >85% efficiency from 1 mA to 600 mA load range. |
| Integrated soft-start | Staged current limit (70/140/280/1020 mA) prevents inrush into large output caps; startup time ~275–400 µs. |
| Thermal & overload protection | Auto-recovering shutdown at 150°C junction; cycle-by-cycle current limit protects inductor and MOSFETs under short-circuit. |
| Ultra-low shutdown current | 0.01 µA typical ensures negligible battery drain during system sleep, meeting stringent portable standby requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down DC-DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRYR | 1.375 V fixed output, 600 mA, 3 MHz switching, 17 µA IQ, SOT-563 (6-pin) | Higher frequency enables smaller inductor (1 µH); requires different PCB layout due to 6-pin package and separate PGND/SIGNAGND pins. | Select for designs prioritizing minimal BOM size and higher-frequency noise filtering; verify thermal derating in 6-pin SOT-563. |
| AP3012KTR-G1 | 1.35 V fixed output (not 1.375 V), 500 mA, 1.5 MHz, 25 µA IQ, SOT-23-5 | 0.025 V output offset and 100 mA lower current limit; lacks PFM mode and synchronous rectification. | Acceptable only if 1.35 V tolerance is sufficient and efficiency above 85% at 400 mA is not required; verify dropout under worst-case load. |
Compared with LM3671MF-1.375, TPS62231DRYR offers higher switching frequency but demands revised layout and thermal validation, while AP3012KTR-G1 sacrifices output accuracy, current capability, and light-load efficiency-making LM3671MF-1.375 the optimal choice for precision 1.375 V, high-efficiency portable power.

FAQ
What is the exact output voltage tolerance of the LM3671MF-1.375 across temperature and load?
The LM3671MF-1.375 delivers 1.375 V with ±4% tolerance over the full operating junction temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) and load current (0–600 mA), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table for the MF SOT-23 package. This tolerance includes line, load, and temperature effects and is guaranteed without external trimming.
Can the LM3671MF-1.375 operate from a 2.5 V input source?
No. The LM3671MF-1.375 has a minimum input voltage of 2.7 V per its Operating Ratings. At inputs below 2.7 V, undervoltage lockout disables operation to prevent unstable regulation or excessive dropout. For 2.5 V input systems, consider a buck-boost or LDO alternative.
Does the LM3671MF-1.375 require an external feedback resistor network?
No. The LM3671MF-1.375 is a fixed-output variant with internal resistor dividers configured for 1.375 V. The FB pin connects directly to the output capacitor; adding external resistors would disrupt regulation and is not supported.
What is the recommended inductor value and type for the LM3671MF-1.375?
Texas Instruments specifies a 2.2 µH shielded power inductor with ≥600 mA saturation current and ≤150 mΩ DC resistance (e.g., Coilcraft XAL5030-222MEB). This value enables stable 2 MHz operation, optimal efficiency, and minimal output ripple as validated in the Typical Application Circuit (Figure 1).
How does the LM3671MF-1.375 handle short-circuit conditions on its output?
The LM3671MF-1.375 employs cycle-by-cycle current limiting (1020 mA typical) and thermal shutdown (150°C typical). Under sustained short-circuit, it enters timed current limit mode-extending NFET on-time to allow inductor current decay-then cycles into thermal shutdown if junction temperature exceeds limits, protecting both the IC and external components.
