Overview
LM536025QPWPRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive synchronous buck converter delivering up to 2 A at 5 V or 3.3 V from 3.5 V–36 V input, featuring 2.1 MHz fixed switching frequency, ±2% output voltage tolerance, and integrated reset with 2 ms assertion delay. It operates in navigation/GPS power rails where compact size and transient robustness are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LM536025QPWPRQ1 datasheet, LM536025QPWPRQ1 pinout, LM536025QPWPRQ1 application, or LM536025QPWPRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2 A load capability, 1.7 µA shutdown current, FPWM mode control, open-drain RESET output with glitch filtering, and HTSSOP-16 thermal performance under –40°C to +125°C ambient conditions.
Technical Context
The LM536025QPWPRQ1 implements current-mode control with automatic PWM/PFM transition and user-selectable forced PWM (FPWM) via dedicated logic input. Its oscillator supports external synchronization (SYNC pin) and reduces frequency above ~20 V input to maintain regulation during battery transients.
It integrates a 3.15 V internal VCC regulator, BIAS pin for output-voltage-referenced biasing, bootstrap gate drive (CBOOT), and thermally enhanced HTSSOP package with exposed paddle. The RESET function shares the same reference as the feedback loop, enabling 96.5% falling threshold tracking actual VOUT.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 2 A maximum continuous - supports instrument cluster and HUD subsystems without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5 V to 36 V - accommodates cold-crank (≥3.5 V) and load-dump (transient-tolerant to 42 V/500 ms) automotive battery conditions. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.1 MHz nominal - enables use of small external inductors (e.g., 1.5 µH) and avoids AM radio band interference. |
| Output Voltage Options | Fixed 5 V or 3.3 V - eliminates external feedback divider, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity. |
| Shutdown Current | 1.7 µA typical - preserves battery life in always-on vehicle modules such as telematics wake-up circuits. |
| RESET Output | Open-drain with 2–4 ms assertion delay and 12–45 µs glitch filter - replaces discrete supervisor ICs in safety-critical ADAS power sequencing. |
| Junction Temperature Range | –40°C to +150°C - meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements for under-hood and dashboard-mounted ECUs. |
Pinout & Package
LM536025QPWPRQ1 uses a thermally enhanced 16-pin HTSSOP package (5.00 mm × 4.40 mm × 1.00 mm) with exposed die attach paddle (EP) for PCB-level heat sinking and noise reduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (1,2) | Switch node | Connects directly to inductor; pins 1 and 2 must be shorted on PCB for low-inductance high-current path. |
| CBOOT (3) | Bootstrap supply | Drives high-side MOSFET gate; requires 470 nF ceramic capacitor to SW for stable gate drive. |
| VCC (4) | Internal regulator output | 3.15 V supply for control circuitry; decouple with 3.3 µF X7R capacitor to AGND - no external loading permitted. |
| BIAS (5) | Bias regulator input | Connected to output rail (e.g., 5 V); supplies internal bias with 0.1 µF decoupling - improves light-load efficiency. |
| SYNC (6) | Frequency sync input | Accepts external clock (1.9–2.3 MHz); tie to GND if unused - prevents EMI coupling from floating node. |
| FPWM (7) | Forced PWM mode control | High = fixed-frequency PWM; Low = auto PFM/PWM transition - enables deterministic EMI profile in noise-sensitive infotainment. |
| RESET (8) | Open-drain power-good flag | Asserts high after 2–4 ms when VOUT reaches 94–96.5% of setpoint; requires external pull-up resistor (e.g., 10 kΩ to VOUT). |
| FB (9) | Feedback input | Direct connection to 5 V or 3.3 V output; no external divider needed - simplifies layout and improves stability. |
| AGND (10) | Analog ground reference | Reference for FB, EN, FPWM, SYNC; connect to EP and PGND at single-point star ground to minimize noise coupling. |
| EN (11) | Enable input | Logic-high ≥2 V enables regulation; ≤0.8 V forces full shutdown - supports microcontroller-controlled power sequencing. |
| VIN (12,13) | Main input supply | 3.5–36 V input; pins 12 and 13 must be shorted on PCB and bypassed with low-ESR capacitor(s) to PGND. |
| N/C (14) | No connection | Internally unconnected - leave unpopulated or float; do not route traces or apply solder mask opening. |
| PGND (15,16) | Power ground return | Low-side MOSFET source return; connect to AGND and system ground plane with wide copper pour for thermal and EMI performance. |
| EP (17) | Exposed thermal pad | Must be soldered to solid ground plane - provides primary thermal path (RθJC(bot) = 1.1 °C/W) and reduces EMI radiation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated RESET with tracking threshold | Uses shared reference to achieve ±0.5% relative accuracy between regulation and reset assertion - eliminates need for external supervisor IC. |
| Automatic light-load PFM mode | Reduces no-load input current to 24 µA while maintaining fast transient response - extends battery runtime in parked vehicle modes. |
| Thermally optimized HTSSOP-16 | RθJA = 42.5 °C/W on 4-layer JEDEC board - enables 2 A operation at +85°C ambient without heatsink in typical automotive PCB layouts. |
| Built-in soft-start and compensation | 2 ms internal soft-start prevents output overshoot; fully compensated design removes requirement for external loop components. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for –40°C to +125°C ambient, HBM ±2500 V (I/O pins), CDM ±750 V - certified for front-end ADAS camera and radar modules. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage transient tolerance for LM536025QPWPRQ1?
The LM536025QPWPRQ1 withstands input transients up to 42 V for durations ≤500 ms at ≤0.01% duty cycle, per AEC-Q100 stress testing. This allows direct connection to automotive battery rails without additional transient voltage suppression in most passenger vehicle designs. The device remains functional during load-dump events common in 12 V systems, and the internal protection circuitry prevents latch-up or damage under these conditions. Always verify system-level surge protection per ISO 7637-2 for full compliance.
Does LM536025QPWPRQ1 require external feedback resistors for 5 V output?
No, LM536025QPWPRQ1 does not require external feedback resistors for 5 V output - it integrates an internal resistor divider optimized for 5 V regulation. The FB pin connects directly to the output node, eliminating BOM items, layout sensitivity, and potential drift errors associated with external dividers. This also improves load regulation accuracy and simplifies validation. For adjustable (ADJ) versions, external resistors are required, but LM536025QPWPRQ1 is factory-configured for fixed 5 V operation.
How does the RESET function behave during enable/disable transitions in LM536025QPWPRQ1?
In LM536025QPWPRQ1, the RESET output goes low immediately when EN is pulled below 0.8 V (shutdown threshold), providing synchronous fault indication. When EN rises above 2 V, RESET remains low for 2–4 ms (TRESET-act) after VOUT reaches 94–96.5% of regulation before asserting high. During this delay, the output is actively filtered against glitches <12–45 µs (TRESET-filter). RESET remains valid down to VIN ≥1.5 V even with EN low - enabling reliable power-status monitoring during brown-out conditions.
Can LM536025QPWPRQ1 operate in forced PWM mode across all loads?
Yes, LM536025QPWPRQ1 supports forced PWM (FPWM) mode via the FPWM pin: driving it high locks the regulator into constant 2.1 MHz switching regardless of load, eliminating frequency variation and associated EMI spread. This is essential in noise-sensitive applications like infotainment audio paths or camera sensor interfaces. In auto mode (FPWM low), it transitions seamlessly between PWM and PFM to maximize light-load efficiency - achieving 24 µA no-load input current.
What thermal performance can be expected from LM536025QPWPRQ1 in a standard 4-layer PCB?
On a standard 4-layer JEDEC test board, LM536025QPWPRQ1 exhibits RθJA = 42.5 °C/W and RθJC(bot) = 1.1 °C/W. With proper thermal land design - including soldered EP pad connected to ≥2 in² internal ground plane - it sustains 2 A continuous output at +85°C ambient without derating. Junction temperature remains below 125°C under worst-case 36 V input and full load, meeting AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements. Thermal simulation using TI's WEBENCH® is recommended for application-specific layout validation.
