Product details
Overview
LM5001SDX from Texas Instruments is a high-voltage current-mode PWM controller IC integrating a 75-V, 1-A peak-rated N-channel MOSFET for Boost, Flyback, SEPIC, and Forward converter topologies. It operates from 3.1 V to 75 V input, delivers 1.26 V ±1.5% internal reference, supports up to 1.5 MHz switching via RT resistor, and includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown at 165°C - used in industrial DC-DC power supplies requiring wide VIN range and compact high-voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the LM5001SDX datasheet, LM5001SDX pinout, LM5001SDX application, or LM5001SDX equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated 75-V MOSFET RDS(on) (490–800 mΩ), adjustable frequency (50 kHz–1.5 MHz), 85% max duty cycle, EN/UVLO dual-threshold control (0.45 V / 1.26 V), and COMP-based loop compensation for stable isolated or non-isolated designs.
Technical Context
The LM5001SDX implements peak current-mode control with internal slope compensation (450 mV ramp) to prevent sub-harmonic oscillation above 50% duty cycle. Its oscillator uses a single RT-to-GND resistor or accepts external synchronization pulses (>2.6 V threshold, ≥15 ns width) while maintaining internal 1.5 V DC bias on RT.
It integrates a high-voltage VCC LDO regulator (6.55–7.15 V output, 20 mA limit) that tracks VIN up to 6.9 V then regulates; an enable circuit with three states (shutdown at VEN < 0.45 V, standby at 0.45–1.26 V, full operation above 1.26 V); and a 5-kΩ pull-up on COMP for opto-coupler interfacing in isolated flyback designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.1 V to 75 V - enables direct regulation from 12 V, 24 V, 48 V, or PoE++/industrial bus rails without pre-regulation. |
| Integrated MOSFET | 75-V N-channel, 490–800 mΩ RDS(on), 1-A peak current limit - eliminates external high-voltage switch and reduces BOM count. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.241–1.279 V (±1.5%) - ensures tight output voltage accuracy across –40°C to +125°C for stable regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 50 kHz to 1.5 MHz (RT-programmable) - allows optimization of magnetics size vs. efficiency and EMI performance. |
| Max Duty Cycle | 80–90% - supports high step-up ratios in boost/flyback while maintaining minimum off-time for reliable current sensing. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 165°C with 20°C hysteresis - protects die during overload or poor heatsinking; VCC remains active in shutdown for controlled recovery. |
| EN Pin Thresholds | 0.25–0.65 V (shutdown), 1.2–1.32 V (standby enable) - enables precise UVLO programming and remote control via open-drain devices. |
Pinout & Package
LM5001SDX is packaged in SOIC-8 (4.9 mm × 3.91 mm) with exposed pad (EP) connected to GND for thermal enhancement. Pin functions are validated per TI SNVS484H datasheet Rev H.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SW | Power MOSFET drain node | High-slew, high-voltage switching node - requires minimized trace length and loop area to reduce EMI and ringing. |
| 2 VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 3.1–75 V; powers internal circuits and MOSFET gate drive; must be decoupled near pin with ≥0.47 µF ceramic capacitor. |
| 3 VCC | Bias regulator output/input | Internally regulated to 6.9 V (max); can accept external 7–12 V supply to bypass internal LDO and improve efficiency at high VIN. |
| 4 GND | Analog/digital/power ground | Reference for FB, COMP, RT, EN; return path for MOSFET current sense; must connect to low-impedance PCB ground plane. |
| 5 RT | Oscillator timing/sync input | Resistor sets frequency (50 kHz–1.5 MHz); also accepts sync pulses >2.6 V (≥15 ns) - internal 1.5 V DC bias maintained. |
| 6 FB | Error amplifier inverting input | Compares output voltage (via resistive divider) against 1.26 V reference; 10 nA bias current enables high-impedance feedback networks. |
| 7 COMP | Error amplifier output | Open-drain output with 5-kΩ internal pull-up; drives external compensation network or opto-coupler LED in isolated topologies. |
| 8 EN | Enable/UVLO/shutdown control | Three-state logic: <0.45 V = shutdown (95 µA IQ), 0.45–1.26 V = standby (VCC active), >1.26 V = full operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 75-V MOSFET | Reduces component count and layout complexity in high-input-voltage DC-DC converters - no external HV FET required. |
| Current-mode control with slope compensation | Enables stable operation at >50% duty cycle without sub-harmonic oscillation - critical for high-step-up flyback/boost designs. |
| Dual-threshold EN pin | Supports programmable UVLO and remote shutdown/standby using simple resistor dividers or open-drain logic - improves system-level power sequencing. |
| VCC LDO with external bias option | Allows auxiliary winding or external supply (7–12 V) to disable internal regulator - cuts quiescent loss and boosts efficiency at VIN > 24 V. |
| Internal 1.26 V precision reference | Provides ±1.5% output voltage accuracy over temperature - eliminates need for external reference in most applications. |
| Oscillator synchronization | Enables EMI reduction by locking switching frequency to system clock - avoids beat frequencies and simplifies filtering. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage PWM controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5122MH/NOPB | Wider 3–100 V input, dual-phase capable, no integrated MOSFET - requires external 100-V FET. | Used in higher-power (>100 W) synchronous boost or two-phase interleaved designs where layout control and efficiency are prioritized. | Select when needing >75 V input, higher output power, or synchronous rectification - LM5001SDX is simpler for ≤30 W single-FET designs. |
| UCC28C43DR | 3–30 V input only, no integrated MOSFET, lower 1-A current limit, no slope compensation - requires external compensation. | Suitable for cost-sensitive, lower-voltage industrial supplies where input stays below 24 V and external FET is acceptable. | Choose for sub-30 V systems with tight BOM cost targets; LM5001SDX is mandatory for 48 V+ inputs or integrated-FET simplicity. |
Compared with LM5122MH/NOPB and UCC28C43DR, the LM5001SDX uniquely combines 75-V integrated MOSFET, wide 3.1–75 V operation, and built-in slope compensation - making it optimal for compact, high-input-voltage, medium-power converters where integration and reliability outweigh multi-phase or ultra-low-cost requirements.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LM5001SDX?
The LM5001SDX has an absolute maximum VIN rating of 76 V, with recommended operating range from 3.1 V to 75 V. Exceeding 76 V risks permanent damage due to internal junction breakdown. Input transients must be clamped externally - especially critical in 48 V systems experiencing load dump - using TVS diodes and proper PCB layout near the VIN and GND pins.
Does the LM5001SDX support external clock synchronization?
Yes, the LM5001SDX supports external oscillator synchronization via the RT pin. A rising-edge sync pulse >2.6 V with ≥15 ns width and frequency higher than the free-running oscillator will lock the internal clock. The RT pin maintains a 1.5 V DC bias, so coupling requires a 100 pF capacitor; the external resistor (RRT) must remain connected regardless of sync mode.
How does the EN pin function in shutdown and standby modes for the LM5001SDX?
The LM5001SDX EN pin implements three distinct states: below 0.45 V disables all circuitry (95 µA shutdown current), 0.45–1.26 V enables VCC regulation only (standby), and above 1.26 V enables full operation. Hysteresis (100 mV) prevents noise-induced toggling. An internal 6 µA pull-up allows default-enable behavior when left floating.
Can the LM5001SDX be used in isolated flyback designs?
Yes, the LM5001SDX is commonly used in isolated flyback converters. In such configurations, the FB pin is grounded on the primary side, and the COMP pin drives the LED of an opto-coupler referenced to secondary-side error amplification. The 5-kΩ internal pull-up on COMP eliminates need for external bias, simplifying isolated feedback implementation.
What is the purpose of slope compensation in the LM5001SDX?
Slope compensation in the LM5001SDX adds a 450 mV triangular ramp to the current sense signal before comparison with the COMP voltage. This prevents sub-harmonic oscillation in peak current-mode control when duty cycle exceeds 50%, ensuring stable regulation in high-step-up flyback or boost topologies without requiring complex external compensation.
