Product details
Overview
LM5008MM/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 95-V, 350-mA constant on-time (COT) buck switching regulator with integrated 100-V N-channel MOSFET, internal 7-V VCC regulator, and no loop compensation required. It operates from 9.5 V to 95 V input, delivers regulated output down to 2.5 V via external resistor divider, and features intelligent current limit protection with programmable off-time. Used in high-voltage post-regulation for telecom and automotive systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM5008MM/NOPB datasheet, LM5008MM/NOPB pinout, LM5008MM/NOPB application, or LM5008MM/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (9.5–95 V), integrated high-voltage switch RDS(on) (1.15 Ω typ), thermal shutdown (165 °C), remote shutdown capability via RON/SD pin, and COT control enabling fast transient response without compensation.
Technical Context
The LM5008MM/NOPB implements a hysteretic constant-on-time control architecture where on-time varies inversely with VIN (TON = 1.25×10−10 × RON/VIN), maintaining near-constant frequency across line and load. It operates in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at light loads and continuous conduction mode (CCM) at higher loads, with automatic mode transition.
Regulation uses an internal 2.5-V reference comparator monitoring FB; overvoltage protection triggers at 2.875 V. Current limiting employs a non-resettable off-timer set by RCL and FB voltage (TOFF = 10−5 / (0.285 + (VFB/6.35×10−6 × RCL))), providing short-circuit protection with minimal foldback.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 9.5 V to 95 V - supports wide-range industrial, telecom, and 48-V automotive rails without external pre-regulator. |
| Output Current | 350 mA DC - sufficient for auxiliary power supplies in base stations, industrial controllers, and HV sensors. |
| Switch RDS(on) | 1.15 Ω (typ @ 25°C) - enables high efficiency at 48-V input with low conduction loss in integrated N-MOSFET. |
| Feedback Reference | 2.5 V ±2.2% - precise internal reference sets output voltage via resistor divider (VOUT = 2.5 × (R1+R2)/R2). |
| Current Limit Threshold | 0.51 A (typ @ 25°C) - protects against overload and short-circuit while allowing peak inductor current margin. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 165 °C with 25 °C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overloads or poor heatsinking. |
| Minimum Off-Time | 300 ns - ensures reliable bootstrap capacitor recharge and stable operation at high input voltages. |
Pinout & Package
LM5008MM/NOPB is packaged in an 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) with 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm body size and exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected). The package supports high-power density layouts with low thermal resistance (RθJA = 139.7 °C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SW | Switching node | Power switching output connected to inductor, freewheeling diode, and bootstrap capacitor - must be routed with minimal parasitic inductance. |
| 2 BST | Bootstrap supply input | Accepts external 0.01-µF ceramic capacitor between BST and SW to provide gate drive voltage for internal N-MOSFET. |
| 3 RCL | Current limit off-time set | Resistor to RTN programs off-time duration during current limit events - determines short-circuit recovery behavior. |
| 4 RTN | Ground reference | Common return for all analog and power circuits - requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 5 FB | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider output; compared to 2.5-V internal reference to regulate VOUT - bias current ≤100 nA. |
| 6 RON/SD | On-time set / shutdown control | Resistor to VIN sets TON; pulled low (<0.7 V) disables regulator - dual-function pin enables remote ON/OFF control. |
| 7 VCC | Internal 7-V regulator output | Supplies gate drive and internal circuitry; self-biased up to 14 V - local 0.1-µF decoupling required. |
| 8 VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 9.5–95 V DC; withstands 100-V transients - connects directly to high-voltage rail without external components. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No loop compensation required | Hysteretic COT control eliminates external compensation network - reduces BOM count and design iteration time. |
| Ultra-fast transient response | On-time adjustment per cycle enables immediate correction to load steps - critical for burst-mode or pulsed-load applications. |
| Intelligent current limit protection | FB-dependent off-time prevents excessive foldback during partial overloads - maintains faster recovery than fixed-timer schemes. |
| Integrated 100-V N-channel buck switch | Eliminates external high-voltage MOSFET and driver - simplifies layout and improves reliability in space-constrained designs. |
| Self-bias VCC option | VCC pin accepts auxiliary 8–14 V supply to disable internal regulator - reduces power dissipation at high VIN. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5164PWPR | Wider input (3–100 V), higher IOUT (500 mA), synchronous rectification, but requires loop compensation. | Better suited for high-efficiency, high-current applications where PCB area allows compensation components. | Select LM5164PWPR when >350 mA output or synchronous efficiency is mandatory; LM5008MM/NOPB preferred for simplicity and cost-sensitive designs. |
| MAX5033BASA+ | Lower IIN (300 mA), narrower input (7.5–76 V), no integrated switch - external MOSFET required. | Used where external FET selection is needed for thermal or voltage rating flexibility. | Choose MAX5033BASA+ only if external switch control or specific FET integration is required; LM5008MM/NOPB offers lower BOM count and smaller footprint. |
Compared with LM5164PWPR and MAX5033BASA+, the LM5008MM/NOPB provides the simplest implementation for 350-mA, 95-V buck conversion - eliminating both compensation network and external MOSFET while maintaining robust protection and thermal performance in a compact VSSOP package.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for reliable startup of the LM5008MM/NOPB?
The LM5008MM/NOPB requires a minimum input voltage of 9.5 V to ensure proper startup and VCC regulation. Below this threshold, the internal 7-V series regulator cannot reach its 6.3-V UVLO turn-on point, preventing switch activation. Startup is guaranteed across –40°C to 125°C ambient when VIN ≥ 9.5 V and the VCC capacitor (C3) is properly sized (0.1 µF ceramic).
Can the LM5008MM/NOPB operate without an external bootstrap capacitor?
No, the LM5008MM/NOPB requires an external 0.01-µF ceramic capacitor between BST and SW pins. This capacitor supplies gate drive voltage to the internal N-channel MOSFET during each on-time. Omitting it causes immediate gate drive failure and switch malfunction. The internal bootstrap diode charges this capacitor during off-time, relying on the 300-ns minimum off-timer for reliable recharge.
How does the LM5008MM/NOPB handle short-circuit conditions?
Under short-circuit, the LM5008MM/NOPB detects overcurrent (>0.51 A) and initiates a non-resettable off-timer programmed by RCL and FB voltage. When FB ≈ 0 V (as in hard short), off-time defaults to 35 µs - limiting power dissipation and enabling safe operation even at 95-V input. Recovery occurs only after FB rises above 2.5 V, preventing latch-up.
Is the LM5008MM/NOPB pin-compatible with other members of the LM50xx family?
No, the LM5008MM/NOPB is not pin-compatible with other LM50xx devices such as LM5007 or LM5017. Its 8-pin VSSOP pinout (SW/BST/RCL/RTN/FB/RON-SD/VCC/VIN) is unique to the LM5008 family. Substituting other LM50xx parts requires PCB redesign due to differing pin functions, internal architectures, and protection schemes.
What is the maximum recommended output voltage achievable with the LM5008MM/NOPB?
The LM5008MM/NOPB supports output voltages up to 90 V, limited by the 100-V absolute maximum rating of the internal switch and the 2.5-V feedback reference. Using standard resistor dividers (e.g., R1 = 3.57 MΩ, R2 = 100 kΩ), VOUT = 2.5 × (R1+R2)/R2 yields ~90 V. Higher outputs require careful attention to voltage ratings of external components (diode, capacitor, inductor) and layout creepage/clearance.
