Product details
Overview
LM536025QPWPTQ1 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 serves as primary power supply for infotainment domain controllers requiring high transient immunity and compact layout.
For engineers reviewing the LM536025QPWPTQ1 datasheet, LM536025QPWPTQ1 pinout, LM536025QPWPTQ1 application, or LM536025QPWPTQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2 A current rating, HTSSOP-16 thermal performance (RθJA = 42.5°C/W), forced PWM mode support, and automotive-grade ESD ratings (HBM ±2500 V on EN/FB/RESET).
Technical Context
The LM536025QPWPTQ1 implements current-mode control with valley-current limiting and automatic PFM/PWM transition. Its oscillator supports external synchronization (1.9–2.3 MHz) and reduces frequency under high VIN (>20 V) to maintain regulation.
It integrates internal 3.15 V VCC regulator, BIAS pin for output-sourced biasing, and open-drain RESET with glitch filtering (12–45 µs) and 2–4 ms activation delay-enabling system-level power sequencing without external supervisors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5 V to 36 V DC; withstands 42 V transients ≤500 ms - simplifies front-end surge protection in 12 V/24 V automotive systems. |
| Output Current | 2 A maximum continuous - matches load requirements of mid-tier ADAS camera modules and HUD display drivers. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.1 MHz nominal (1.85–2.35 MHz range); synchronizable to 1.9–2.3 MHz - enables use of small 1–2.2 µH inductors and avoids AM radio band. |
| Output Voltage Options | Fixed 5 V or 3.3 V; no external feedback divider required - reduces BOM count and layout area for standard logic rails. |
| Quiescent Current | 24 µA typical at no load - sustains >10-year battery standby life in always-on vehicle modules. |
| Shutdown Current | 1.7 µA typical - meets ISO 16750-2 cold-cranking and sleep-mode leakage requirements. |
| Reset Accuracy | ±2.5% threshold tracking (94.5–110% of VOUT) with 2–4 ms delay - provides reliable power-good signaling without external supervisor IC. |
Pinout & Package
Package: HTSSOP-16 (5.00 mm × 4.40 mm × 1.00 mm) with exposed thermal pad (EP). Thermally enhanced for automotive under-hood operation; RθJC(bot) = 1.1°C/W enables direct PCB copper pour heat sinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW (1,2) | Switch node | Connects directly to inductor; pins 1 & 2 must be shorted on PCB to minimize loop inductance and EMI. |
| CBOOT (3) | Bootstrap supply | Requires 470 nF X7R capacitor to SW; enables high-side NMOS gate drive above VIN. |
| VCC (4) | Internal regulator output | 3.15 V supply for control circuitry; decouple with 3.3 µF ceramic to AGND - not for external loading. |
| BIAS (5) | Bias input | Connected to VOUT; powers internal regulators with 0.1 µF local decoupling - improves light-load efficiency. |
| SYNC (6) | Frequency sync input | Accepts 1.9–2.3 MHz external clock; tie to GND if unused - prevents noise coupling into oscillator. |
| FPWM (7) | Mode control | High = forced PWM (constant fSW); Low = auto PFM/PWM - selectable for EMI-sensitive or efficiency-critical applications. |
| RESET (8) | Open-drain fault flag | Asserts low on undervoltage/fault; requires external pull-up; remains valid down to VIN ≥1.5 V - replaces discrete supervisor IC. |
| FB (9) | Feedback input | Internally connected to 5 V/3.3 V divider; for ADJ version only - connects to resistor divider tap point. |
| AGND (10) | Analog ground | Reference for FB, EN, FPWM, SYNC; connect to EP and PGND at single point - critical for noise immunity. |
| EN (11) | Enable input | Active-high; 2 V threshold rising, 0.8 V falling - supports direct connection to microcontroller GPIO or battery rail. |
| VIN (12,13) | Main input supply | 3.5–36 V input; pins 12 & 13 must be shorted on PCB - handles dual-path routing for high-current delivery. |
| N/C (14) | No connect | Unbonded pin - leave unconnected; do not route or place copper. |
| PGND (15,16) | Power ground | Low-side MOSFET source return; connect to AGND and system GND at EP - minimizes ground bounce during switching. |
| EP (17) | Exposed paddle | Thermal and electrical ground; must be soldered to large PCB copper area - essential for RθJC = 1.1°C/W performance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LM536025QPWPTQ1 can withstand without damage?
The LM536025QPWPTQ1 has an absolute maximum VIN rating of 40 V DC, and can sustain 42 V transients for ≤500 ms at ≤0.01% duty cycle. This meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a load-dump requirements for 12 V automotive systems. Operation above 36 V is not recommended for continuous use, as switching frequency drops below 1.2 MHz and regulation margin decreases.
Does the LM536025QPWPTQ1 require external feedback resistors for 5 V output?
No, the LM536025QPWPTQ1 does not require external feedback resistors for 5 V or 3.3 V fixed-output versions. Internal resistor dividers set the feedback reference; the FB pin is internally connected and must not be left floating or grounded. External resistors are only needed for the ADJ variant to program output between 3.3 V and 6 V.
How does the RESET pin on the LM536025QPWPTQ1 behave during enable/disable transitions?
When EN is pulled low, the LM536025QPWPTQ1 forces RESET low regardless of output voltage status. RESET remains valid (can assert low on fault) as long as VIN ≥1.5 V. Upon EN rising above 2 V, RESET asserts high only after VOUT reaches regulation and the 2–4 ms delay (TRESET-act) expires - preventing false power-good signals during startup overshoot.
Can the LM536025QPWPTQ1 operate with input voltage below 3.5 V?
No - the LM536025QPWPTQ1 has a minimum operating input voltage of 3.5 V (3.95 V typical start-up). Below this, the device will not initiate switching or regulate output. For 3.3 V output, the minimum input to maintain regulation is 3.9 V at full 2 A load, per system characterization data. Input below 3.5 V results in UVLO shutdown.
What is the purpose of the BIAS pin on the LM536025QPWPTQ1, and how should it be connected?
The BIAS pin on the LM536025QPWPTQ1 supplies the internal bias regulator and improves light-load efficiency by sourcing current from the output rail instead of VIN. It must be connected directly to the VOUT node (not GND or VIN) and decoupled with a 0.1 µF X7R ceramic capacitor to AGND. Floating or grounding BIAS disables this efficiency enhancement and may cause instability.
