Product details
Overview
LM5158QRTERQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive-qualified, non-synchronous boost/SEPIC/flyback controller with integrated 85-V, 3.26-A power MOSFET, 2.2-MHz programmable switching frequency, ±1% feedback reference, and dual random spread spectrum for EMI reduction. It operates from 3.2 V to 60 V input (65-V abs max), delivers up to 83-V output (85-V abs max), and supports primary-side regulation in flyback without optocoupler - ideal for automotive LED bias and LiDAR power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM5158QRTERQ1 datasheet, LM5158QRTERQ1 pinout, LM5158QRTERQ1 application, or LM5158QRTERQ1 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed automotive-grade protection features (hiccup mode, OVP, thermal shutdown), real-world topology support (boost/SEPIC/flyback), and precise selection guidance against comparable wide-VIN controllers.
Technical Context
The LM5158QRTERQ1 implements peak-current-mode control with dynamically programmable switching frequency (100 kHz–2.2 MHz via RT resistor), enabling AM-band avoidance and compact magnetics. Its integrated 133-mΩ 85-V MOSFET and accurate current limit (3.26 A typ) support high-efficiency operation across wide input ranges.
It features dual-level EN/UVLO/SYNC pin functionality, selectable hiccup-mode overload protection, and a precision 1-V internal reference with ±1% tolerance over –40°C to +125°C. The BIAS pin supports up to 60-V operation (65-V abs max) for load-dump resilience, while PGOOD and soft-start (SS) enable robust system sequencing.

Pinout & Package
LM5158QRTERQ1 is housed in a 16-pin WQFN package (3.00 mm × 3.00 mm) with wettable flanks and exposed thermal pad (EP) connected to AGND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 16 PGND | Power ground | Source connection of internal N-channel MOSFET; must be low-inductance path to minimize switching noise. |
| 2 VCC | VCC regulator output | Supplies internal circuitry and gate driver; requires 1-µF ceramic bypass to PGND. |
| 3 BIAS | VCC regulator input | Wide-range supply input (3.2–60 V); enables operation during cold-crank and load-dump events. |
| 4 PGOOD | Power-good indicator | Open-drain output signaling valid output regulation; requires external pull-up for system sequencing. |
| 5 RT | Frequency setting | Resistor-to-AGND sets fSW from 100 kHz to 2.2 MHz; enables layout-optimized EMI tuning. |
| 6 EN/UVLO/SYNC | Enable/UVLO/sync input | Triple-function pin: start-up control, programmable UVLO threshold (1.5 V typ), or external clock sync. |
| 7 AGND | Analog ground | Reference for FB, COMP, SS; must connect via short, wide trace to minimize noise coupling. |
| 8 COMP | Error amplifier output | Connects loop compensation network; transconductance = 2 mA/V for stable Type II/III compensation. |
| 9 FB | Feedback input | Inverting input of error amp; connects to voltage divider for output regulation in all supported topologies. |
| 10 SS | Soft-start control | Capacitor-to-AGND sets ramp rate of internal reference; prevents inrush current and overshoot. |
| 11 MODE | Protection/spread-spectrum select | Resistor-to-AGND configures hiccup mode (enabled/disabled) and dual random spread spectrum (on/off). |
| 13, 14 SW | Switch node | Drain of internal 85-V MOSFET; carries high di/dt; requires tight layout and Kelvin connection to PGND. |
| 12, 15 NC | No connect | No internal electrical connection; must remain unconnected per datasheet. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar wide-input boost/SEPIC/flyback controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5157QRTERQ1 | Lower maximum switch voltage (65 V vs. 85 V); same 3.26-A current limit and 2.2-MHz capability. | Not suitable for >65-V output applications like LiDAR or high-string LED; otherwise matches in footprint and feature set. | Select LM5157QRTERQ1 only if output ≤65 V and cost sensitivity outweighs voltage margin needs. |
| LM5165QRTERQ1 | Synchronous buck-only (not boost/SEPIC/flyback); 65-V input, 500-mA output; no integrated high-side switch. | Cannot replace LM5158QRTERQ1 in boost-derived topologies; limited to step-down conversion with lower power. | Use LM5165QRTERQ1 only for low-power buck regulation where topology and voltage requirements align. |
Compared with LM5157QRTERQ1 and LM5165QRTERQ1, LM5158QRTERQ1 uniquely supports 85-V output in boost/SEPIC/flyback with integrated 3.26-A switch and primary-side regulation - making it the sole option for automotive high-voltage isolated or non-isolated DC/DC where voltage headroom and topology flexibility are critical.

FAQ
What is the absolute maximum voltage rating on the SW pin of the LM5158QRTERQ1?
The SW pin of the LM5158QRTERQ1 has an absolute maximum voltage rating of 85 V for DC conditions and 85 V for 5-ns transients. This rating enables reliable operation in high-output boost and flyback designs such as automotive LiDAR bias supplies, where transient spikes must be contained within safe operating area limits. Exceeding 85 V risks permanent damage to the integrated 85-V MOSFET.
Does the LM5158QRTERQ1 support primary-side regulation in flyback without an optocoupler?
Yes, the LM5158QRTERQ1 supports primary-side regulation (PSR) in flyback topology using its integrated transconductance error amplifier and accurate 1.0-V ±1% reference. By sensing reflected output voltage on the FB pin through a transformer turns-ratio-adjusted divider, it eliminates the need for an optocoupler and secondary-side TL431, reducing bill-of-materials cost and improving long-term reliability in automotive isolation applications.
How does the MODE pin configure hiccup-mode protection and spread spectrum on the LM5158QRTERQ1?
The MODE pin of the LM5158QRTERQ1 selects operating modes via resistor-to-AGND: 37.4 kΩ enables both hiccup-mode protection and dual random spread spectrum; 62.0 kΩ enables hiccup mode only; 100 kΩ enables spread spectrum only; and grounding disables both. This configuration occurs at initial power-up and remains latched, allowing deterministic EMI and fault-handling behavior without runtime reconfiguration.
What is the minimum input voltage the LM5158QRTERQ1 can operate from, and under what conditions?
The LM5158QRTERQ1 can operate from a minimum input voltage of 1.5 V when the BIAS pin is supplied ≥3.2 V - enabling functionality during severe automotive cold-crank events where battery voltage collapses below 4 V. This capability relies on the internal VCC regulator being powered externally, not from VSUPPLY, and is validated across –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature.
Is the LM5158QRTERQ1 pin-compatible with other devices in the LM5158x-Q1 family?
No, the LM5158QRTERQ1 is not pin-compatible with LM51581QRTERQ1 despite identical package and pinout - because the LM51581-Q1 variant integrates a 1.63-A (not 3.26-A) MOSFET with different current-limit calibration. Swapping them without redesigning current-sense and thermal layout risks overcurrent failure or inadequate power delivery. Always verify device-specific current limit and rDS(ON) values before substitution.
