Product details
Overview
LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output 1.5 V, 2-MHz synchronous step-down DC-DC converter optimized for single Li-Ion battery input (2.7 V to 5.5 V), delivering up to 600 mA load current with 16 µA typical quiescent current and internal soft-start. It enables compact power solutions in space-constrained portable electronics requiring stable low-voltage rails.
For engineers reviewing the LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB datasheet, LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB pinout, LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB application, or LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.5 V fixed output, USON-6 package footprint, automatic PFM-PWM mode switching, internal synchronous rectification, and thermal/overcurrent protection - all critical for battery-powered mobile and automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
The LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB employs voltage-mode PWM control with input feed-forward for tight line regulation and integrates a PFET high-side switch and NFET synchronous rectifier. Its 2-MHz fixed-frequency operation enables use of small 2.2 µH inductors and ceramic capacitors.
It features intelligent light-load management: automatic transition from PWM to hysteretic PFM mode below ~80 mA load, reducing quiescent current to 16 µA (typ.), while maintaining regulated 1.5 V output via internal 0.5 V reference and feedback amplifier. Shutdown disables switching and reduces supply current to 0.01 µA (typ.).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±4% (TL grade) - ensures stable core/logic rail without external resistor divider. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports full discharge curve of single Li-Ion cell (3.0–4.2 V nominal) plus margin. |
| Max Load Current | 600 mA - sufficient for RF transceivers, camera modules, and microcontroller cores in portable devices. |
| Switching Frequency | 2 MHz (typ.), 1.6–2.6 MHz (min/max) - enables <2.5 mm² total solution size with 2.2 µH inductor and 4.7 µF/10 µF ceramics. |
| Quiescent Current | 16 µA (typ.) in PFM mode - extends battery runtime during standby/sleep states in handheld instruments. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.01 µA (typ.) - minimizes leakage drain when system is powered off. |
| Internal Reference | 0.5 V - sets feedback threshold; output = 1.5 V = 0.5 V × (1 + R1/R2), but fixed version embeds divider internally. |
Pinout & Package
LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB uses a 6-pin USON (NKH) package measuring 2.00 mm × 2.00 mm, with wettable flanks for automated optical inspection. Thermal resistance RθJA is 174.7°C/W on a 4-layer board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power Input | Connects to input filter capacitor; accepts 2.7–5.5 V; powers internal circuitry and high-side PFET. |
| GND | Power Ground | Primary return path for input capacitor, inductor, and synchronous rectifier; must be low-impedance. |
| EN | Digital Enable | Active-high logic input; device enabled at >1 V, shutdown at <0.4 V; must not float. |
| FB | Analog Feedback | Internally connected to fixed 1.5 V divider; no external resistors required - simplifies layout and BOM. |
| SW | Switching Node | Drives external inductor; connects to drain of internal PFET and source of NFET; requires low-inductance routing. |
| SGND | Signal Ground | Separate ground pin for FB amplifier; ties to GND externally to minimize noise coupling into feedback path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Synchronous Rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode, improving efficiency by 8–12% at 100–300 mA loads vs. asynchronous designs. |
| Automatic PFM-PWM Mode Switching | Seamlessly transitions at ~80 mA load to maintain >85% efficiency from 1 mA to 600 mA without control firmware. |
| Internal Soft-Start | Ramps output voltage over ~275–400 µs (load-dependent) to limit inrush current and prevent input rail sag. |
| Thermal & Overcurrent Protection | Shuts down at 150°C (typ.) junction temperature and limits peak switch current to 1020 mA (typ.) to protect IC and inductor. |
| Ultra-Low Shutdown Current | 0.01 µA (typ.) enables multi-week shelf life in battery-backed devices like medical sensors or asset trackers. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB?
The LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB provides a fixed 1.5 V output with ±2.5% tolerance over temperature and line conditions (TL grade). This specification is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official TI datasheet SNVS294S, ensuring consistent performance across −40°C to +125°C ambient operation without external trimming.
Does the LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB require external feedback resistors?
No, the LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed-output variant, it integrates the resistor divider internally - connecting only VIN, GND, EN, SW, FB, and SGND pins. The FB pin is internally tied to the 0.5 V reference and output divider network, eliminating BOM cost and layout sensitivity.
What package type is used by the LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB?
The LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB uses the 6-pin USON (NKH) package, measuring 2.00 mm × 2.00 mm with wettable flanks. This package is distinct from the SOT-23 and DSBGA variants in the LM3671 family and is specified in TI's orderable addendum and mechanical drawings for the TLX suffix.
How does the LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB manage efficiency at light loads?
The LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB automatically switches from PWM to PFM mode below ~80 mA load, reducing quiescent current to 16 µA (typ.) and maintaining >85% efficiency down to 1 mA. This behavior is implemented via internal comparators monitoring inductor zero-crossing and peak switch current, requiring no external control signals or firmware intervention.
Is the LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB qualified for automotive applications?
No, the LM3671TLX-1.5/NOPB is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Only the LM3671-Q1 variants (e.g., LM3671QTLX-1.5/NOPB) carry automotive qualification. The TLX-1.5/NOPB is rated for industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C ambient), with junction temperature limit of 125°C, and lacks the extended test documentation required for automotive deployment.
