Product details
Overview
LM5180QNGURQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive primary-side regulated (PSR) flyback DC/DC controller IC with integrated 100-V, 1.5-A N-channel MOSFET, supporting 4.5 V to 65 V input and delivering up to 7 W isolated output power at ±1.5% total regulation accuracy. It operates in boundary conduction mode (BCM), achieves up to 90% efficiency at 1 A load with 5 V output, and eliminates optocoupler or auxiliary winding requirements for feedback.
For engineers reviewing the LM5180QNGURQ1 datasheet, LM5180QNGURQ1 pinout, LM5180QNGURQ1 application, or LM5180QNGURQ1 equivalent, key selection considerations include its PSR architecture for compact isolation, programmable UVLO via EN/UVLO pin, thermal-compensated voltage regulation using TC/RSET, internal 6-ms or external capacitor-programmable soft start, and hiccup-mode overcurrent protection for automotive body electronics and powertrain systems.
Technical Context
The LM5180QNGURQ1 implements variable-frequency peak current-mode control with three operating modes: BCM at heavy loads (up to 350 kHz), DCM at medium loads (clamped max frequency), and frequency foldback mode (FFM) at light loads (down to 12 kHz). Its PSR feedback samples reflected flyback voltage at secondary zero-current crossing, enabling precise regulation without secondary-side sensing components.
It integrates a 100-V/0.4-Ω MOSFET, internal 1.21-V reference trimmed by RSET (12.1 kΩ), temperature-compensated FB loop via TC pin, and precision enable comparator with 1.45 V rising threshold and 50 mV hysteresis. The SS/BIAS pin supports dual-function operation: soft-start timing control or external bias supply connection for reduced quiescent current (25–40 µA active with bias vs. 260–350 µA without).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 65 V - supports wide automotive battery transients including cold-crank (down to 3.5 V post-startup) and load-dump conditions. |
| Integrated MOSFET | 100-V, 1.5-A, 0.4-Ω RDS(on) - enables robust 7-W isolated output without external high-voltage switch; provides headroom for 65-V line surges. |
| Output Regulation Accuracy | ±1.5% total - achieved via primary-side sampling at zero-secondary-current point, eliminating optocoupler drift and aging effects. |
| Switching Frequency Range | 12 kHz to 350 kHz - dynamically adjusts across BCM/DCM/FFM modes to maintain regulation and optimize efficiency across full load range. |
| Soft Start | 6-ms internal or externally programmable - controlled by capacitor on SS/BIAS pin; prevents inrush current during startup into large output capacitance. |
| Thermal Protection | 175°C shutdown with 6°C hysteresis - ensures safe operation under overload or poor heatsinking; automatic recovery after cooldown. |
| Enable Threshold | 1.45 V rising with 50-mV hysteresis - allows precise, resistor-divider-programmable UVLO for system-level power sequencing. |
| Quiescent Current | 3 µA shutdown, 260–350 µA active, 25–40 µA with external bias - enables low-power standby modes critical for always-on automotive modules. |
Pinout & Package
LM5180QNGURQ1 is housed in an 8-pin WSON package (4.0 mm × 4.0 mm, 0.8-mm pin pitch) with wettable flanks for enhanced solder-joint inspection and reliability in automotive applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - SW | Switch node | Internal drain of 100-V MOSFET; connects directly to primary winding of flyback transformer; carries high dv/dt switching waveform. |
| 2 - FB | Primary-side feedback input | Samples reflected flyback voltage at zero-secondary-current crossing; ratio of FB-to-SW resistor and RSET sets output voltage. |
| 3 - VIN | Main input supply | Powers internal bias regulators and serves as input voltage sense point; requires low-impedance path to bulk input capacitor. |
| 4 - EN/UVLO | Enable and UVLO programming | Three-state control: <1.1 V = shutdown, 1.1–1.5 V = standby, >1.5 V = active start-up; hysteresis enables clean power sequencing. |
| 5 - SS/BIAS | Soft-start timing / external bias input | Capacitor-connected for adjustable soft start; voltage ≥5.5 V enables external bias mode, reducing IQ and improving light-load efficiency. |
| 6 - TC | Temperature compensation | Connects to RSET via resistor to offset thermal drift of flyback diode VF, improving output voltage stability over –40°C to +125°C ambient. |
| 7 - RSET | Reference current setting | 12.1-kΩ resistor to GND sets 100-µA reference current and 1.21-V internal reference; determines FB gain and output voltage scaling. |
| 8 - GND | Analog and power ground | Common return for control circuitry and MOSFET source; must be low-inductance, star-connected to minimize noise coupling into FB/TC paths. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output power supported by the LM5180QNGURQ1?
The LM5180QNGURQ1 supports up to 7 W of isolated output power when used with appropriate magnetics and layout. This is enabled by its integrated 100-V, 1.5-A MOSFET and optimized boundary conduction mode control. Actual delivered power depends on input voltage, output voltage, transformer design, and thermal management - for example, at VIN = 12 V and VOUT = 5 V, typical continuous output is 1.4 A (7 W), while at VIN = 48 V, it scales to ~150 mA due to duty cycle limitations. The LM5180QNGURQ1 datasheet specifies performance curves across 5-V, 12-V, and 24-V outputs.
How does the LM5180QNGURQ1 achieve primary-side regulation without an optocoupler?
The LM5180QNGURQ1 achieves primary-side regulation by sampling the reflected flyback voltage at the SW pin precisely when secondary current reaches zero - a point where diode forward-voltage drop is negligible. This sampled voltage is fed into the FB pin through a resistor divider, and compared against an internal 1.21-V reference set by the RSET resistor. The error amplifier then adjusts peak primary current to maintain regulation. Because this method eliminates reliance on secondary-side components, the LM5180QNGURQ1 removes optocouplers, TL431s, and auxiliary windings - reducing cost, size, and long-term drift.
Can the LM5180QNGURQ1 be used with an external bias supply, and what are the benefits?
Yes, the LM5180QNGURQ1 supports external bias via the SS/BIAS pin: when voltage exceeds 5.5 V, the internal LDO regulator switches from VIN-derived bias to the external source. This reduces active quiescent current from 260–350 µA to 25–40 µA, significantly improving light-load efficiency. In automotive always-on applications like body control modules, this feature extends battery life and lowers thermal load. The external bias can come from a transformer auxiliary winding (as shown in Figure 22 of the LM5180QNGURQ1 datasheet) or a separate low-noise LDO - but must remain within 13-V absolute maximum rating.
What is the purpose of the TC pin on the LM5180QNGURQ1, and how is it configured?
The TC (Temperature Compensation) pin on the LM5180QNGURQ1 compensates for the negative temperature coefficient of the secondary flyback diode's forward voltage drop (VF). As temperature rises, VF decreases, causing output voltage to rise unless corrected. The LM5180QNGURQ1 applies a temperature-dependent current to the FB loop via a resistor between TC and RSET. Using Equation 9 from the LM5180QNGURQ1 datasheet, a typical 158-kΩ resistor (RTC) is selected based on the diode's measured VF drift. This correction maintains ±1.5% output regulation across –40°C to +125°C ambient - a key advantage over non-compensated PSR controllers.
Does the LM5180QNGURQ1 support programmable undervoltage lockout (UVLO), and how is it implemented?
Yes, the LM5180QNGURQ1 supports fully programmable UVLO via its EN/UVLO pin. A resistor divider (RUV1/RUV2) from VIN to GND sets the turn-on threshold, with Equation 10 specifying VIN(ON) = VUV-RISING × (1 + RUV1/RUV2) + IUV-HYST × RUV1. The device uses a precision 1.45-V comparator with 50-mV hysteresis, enabling accurate, repeatable startup and shutdown behavior across temperature. For example, with RUV1 = 1 MΩ and RUV2 = 100 kΩ, UVLO turns on at ~16.2 V and off at ~15.7 V - ideal for battery-powered automotive systems needing defined brownout recovery.
