Product details
Overview
LM5007MMX from Texas Instruments is a 75-V input, 0.5-A synchronous buck DC/DC converter with integrated 80-V/0.7-A N-channel power MOSFET, adaptive constant-on-time (COT) control, and 2.5-V precision feedback reference. It operates from 9 V to 75 V input, delivers regulated output voltage via external resistor divider, and supports fast transient response in telecom and automotive post-regulation applications.
For engineers reviewing the LM5007MMX datasheet, LM5007MMX pinout, LM5007MMX application, or LM5007MMX equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8-pin VSSOP package, programmable on-time (via RON), current-limit off-time tuning (via RCL), bootstrap gate drive (BST–SW), and thermal shutdown with 25°C hysteresis - all critical for high-voltage industrial and 48-V bus designs.
Technical Context
The LM5007MMX implements an adaptive constant-on-time (COT) hysteretic control architecture where on-time is inversely proportional to VIN and set by an external resistor on RON, enabling near-constant switching frequency across line and load variations. Its internal 7-V VCC regulator powers the gate driver and bias circuits, while BST–SW bootstrap operation enables high-side N-MOSFET drive without external high-voltage gate drivers.
Current limiting uses an intelligent off-time generator dependent on FB voltage and RCL, delivering 17 µs minimum off-time at short-circuit (VFB = 0 V) and scaling down as VOUT rises - reducing foldback and improving overload recovery. Protection includes VCC UVLO (6.3 V), gate-drive UVLO (4.5 V), thermal shutdown (165°C), and overvoltage detection (2.875 V at FB).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 9 V to 75 V - supports direct connection to unregulated 12 V, 24 V, and 48 V rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 0.5 A DC - maximum continuous load current with integrated 0.7-A N-MOSFET and thermal derating. |
| Feedback Reference | 2.5 V ±25 mV - precise internal threshold enabling accurate output regulation via RFB1/RFB2 divider. |
| Switching Control | Adaptive COT - no loop compensation required; on-time programmed by RON, off-time dynamically adjusted by RCL and FB. |
| Integrated MOSFET | 80-V, 0.7-A N-channel - rated for 76 V breakdown at full temperature range; RDS(on) = 0.74 Ω (typ) at 0.2 A. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 165°C with 25°C hysteresis - automatic recovery after junction cooling, preventing latch-up during overload. |
| Quiescent Current | 675 µA (typ) - low operating ICC enables high efficiency at light loads in always-on systems. |
Pinout & Package
LM5007MMX is supplied in an 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) package with 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm body size and exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected). Pin layout is optimized for minimal loop area in high-frequency buck topologies.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SW | Switching node | Power switch output; connects directly to inductor and freewheeling diode cathode - high dv/dt node requiring tight layout. |
| 2 BST | Bootstrap capacitor input | Drives high-side gate; requires 0.01-µF ceramic cap between BST and SW to sustain gate voltage during high-side conduction. |
| 3 RCL | Current limit off-time programming | Sets cycle-by-cycle off-time duration based on FB voltage; determines short-circuit response and overload foldback behavior. |
| 4 RTN | Circuit ground | Analog and power return; must be tied to low-impedance PCB ground plane - separate from noisy power ground if possible. |
| 5 FB | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider from VOUT; compares against 2.5-V internal reference to regulate output voltage. |
| 6 RON | On-time programming / shutdown | Resistor from VIN sets on-time inversely with input voltage; pulling below 0.7 V disables switching and reduces IQ to 100 µA. |
| 7 VCC | Internal bias regulator output | 7-V regulated supply for gate drive and logic; can be externally biased above 7 V to disable internal regulator and reduce dissipation. |
| 8 VIN | Main input supply | High-voltage input (9–75 V); requires local 0.1-µF ceramic decoupling to RTN close to pin for stability and EMI suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No loop compensation required | Adaptive COT architecture eliminates external compensation network - reduces BOM count and design iteration time. |
| Programmable current limit response | RCL pin allows tuning of off-time from 2.65 µs (VFB = 2.3 V) to 17 µs (VFB = 0 V), optimizing short-circuit protection vs. overload recovery. |
| Self-biasing capability | VCC pin accepts auxiliary 7–14 V supply to bypass internal HV regulator - lowers IC power loss in high-input-voltage, low-load conditions. |
| Fast transient response | Hysteretic control enables sub-microsecond load step recovery - critical for burst-mode digital loads in telecom infrastructure. |
| Robust protection suite | Includes VCC/gate-drive UVLO, thermal shutdown with hysteresis, overvoltage comparator (2.875 V), and max duty cycle limiter. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5164PWPR | Wider 3–100 V input, 0.6-A output, integrated 100-V MOSFET; uses current-mode control with compensation required. | Better suited for ultra-wide input ranges and higher current; lacks adaptive COT's zero-compensation benefit. | Choose LM5164PWPR when input may dip below 9 V or exceed 75 V, or when higher peak current is needed. |
| TPS54060DGQR | 6–60 V input, 0.5-A, current-mode control; requires external compensation; no BST pin or bootstrap gate drive. | Lower max input voltage; relies on external high-side driver or P-MOSFET; less suitable for 48-V+ systems. | Choose TPS54060DGQR only for cost-sensitive 24-V systems where 75-V rating and bootstrap simplicity are not required. |
Compared with LM5007MMX, LM5164PWPR offers broader input range and higher current but adds compensation complexity, while TPS54060DGQR sacrifices high-voltage capability and gate-drive integration - making LM5007MMX optimal for fixed 9–75 V, low-component-count 48-V post-regulation.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LM5007MMX?
The LM5007MMX has an absolute maximum input voltage (VIN to RTN) of 80 V, with recommended operating range from 9 V to 75 V. At junction temperatures from –40°C to 125°C, the integrated MOSFET's breakdown voltage is derated to 76 V - ensuring safe operation under transient overvoltage conditions common in automotive and industrial environments. This rating is confirmed in Section 6.5 of the SNVS252H datasheet.
How does the LM5007MMX achieve constant switching frequency without loop compensation?
The LM5007MMX uses adaptive constant-on-time (COT) control: on-time is inversely proportional to VIN and set by the RON resistor, while off-time ends when FB falls below 2.5 V. This hysteretic scheme inherently maintains near-constant frequency across line and load changes - eliminating the need for external compensation components. The LM5007MMX datasheet confirms this in Sections 7.3.1 and 8.2.
Can the LM5007MMX operate with no external components besides the inductor and output capacitor?
No - the LM5007MMX requires at minimum: (1) a 0.01-µF BST–SW ceramic capacitor, (2) a 0.1-µF VIN–RTN decoupling capacitor, (3) RON resistor to set on-time, (4) RCL resistor to configure current-limit off-time, and (5) RFB1/RFB2 divider for output voltage setting. These are mandatory per Section 5 (Pin Functions) and Figure 4 of the LM5007MMX datasheet - omitting any compromises regulation, stability, or protection.
What is the purpose of the RCL pin on the LM5007MMX, and how is it used?
The RCL pin on the LM5007MMX programs the current-limit off-time duration, which scales inversely with FB voltage: tOFF = 10⁻⁵ / (0.59 + (VFB / 7.22×10⁻⁶ × RCL)). With RCL = 100 kΩ, off-time varies from 17 µs (VFB = 0 V, short circuit) to 2.65 µs (VFB = 2.3 V, partial overload). This intelligent scaling reduces current foldback and improves recovery - detailed in Section 5 and Equation 5 of the LM5007MMX datasheet.
Does the LM5007MMX support remote shutdown, and what is the threshold voltage?
Yes - the LM5007MMX supports remote shutdown via the RON pin. Pulling RON below 0.7 V (typical) activates shutdown mode, reducing quiescent current to ~100 µA. The shutdown threshold is specified as 0.45 V (min) to 1.1 V (max) with 40-mV hysteresis (VSHD-HYS), enabling clean, noise-immune disable functionality. This is documented in Section 6.5 (Electrical Characteristics) of the LM5007MMX datasheet.
