Product details
Overview
LM5576MH/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 75V input, 3A synchronous step-down switching regulator controller with integrated 75V/170mΩ N-channel MOSFET, emulated current-mode control, and adjustable 50–500kHz switching frequency. It delivers regulated output as low as 1.225V with 1.5% feedback reference accuracy and supports industrial power bus conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LM5576MH/NOPB datasheet, LM5576MH/NOPB pinout, LM5576MH/NOPB application, or LM5576MH/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-wide 6–75V input range, thermal shutdown at 165°C, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, soft-start programmability, and HTSSOP-20EP package thermal performance.
Technical Context
The LM5576MH/NOPB implements emulated current-mode control using a reconstructed ramp signal-generated via internal voltage-controlled current source (IRAMP = (5 µA × (VIN − VOUT)) + 25 µA) and external RAMP capacitor-to eliminate leading-edge spikes and enable stable operation at very low duty cycles. Its dual-mode VCC regulator maintains ~7V bias for VIN > 9V and tracks VIN directly below 9V.
It features synchronized oscillator architecture with programmable RT resistor interface, SYNC pin capable of master/slave multi-device synchronization, and integrated protection including cycle-by-cycle current limit, thermal shutdown (165°C), and remote shutdown via SD pin with 0.7V/1.225V thresholds and 0.1V hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 6 V to 75 V - supports direct connection to industrial 24V/48V/72V bus rails without pre-regulation |
| Output Current | 3 A continuous - enables single-chip solution for mid-power industrial loads |
| Feedback Reference | 1.225 V ±1.5% - sets minimum output voltage and defines regulation precision across temperature |
| Switching Frequency | 50 kHz to 500 kHz - adjustable via single RT resistor to optimize efficiency vs. size trade-off |
| MOSFET RDS(on) | 170 mΩ typical - limits conduction loss in high-voltage buck stage; max 340 mΩ over temp |
| Thermal Shutdown | 165°C with 25°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during overload or poor heatsinking |
| Soft-Start Current | 10 µA nominal - controls ramp rate of external SS capacitor to limit inrush current |
Pinout & Package
LM5576MH/NOPB uses a thermally enhanced HTSSOP-20EP (PWP) package measuring 6.5 mm × 4.4 mm with exposed die attach pad for PCB-level thermal dissipation. The exposed pad must be soldered to a solid ground plane per TI design guidelines.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (pins 3,4) | High-voltage input supply | Accepts 6–75V unregulated input; dual-mode VCC regulator derives bias from this rail |
| BST (pin 20) | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connects to SW via 0.022 µF ceramic capacitor to drive high-side gate of internal MOSFET |
| SW (pins 17,18) | Switching node | Drives external Schottky diode and buck inductor; source terminal of internal N-MOSFET |
| FB (pin 7) | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider from VOUT; comparator threshold is precisely 1.225 V |
| SS (pin 11) | Soft-start control | 10 µA current source charges external capacitor to ramp reference voltage gradually |
| RT (pin 8) | Oscillator frequency set | Single resistor to AGND programs switching frequency from 50–500 kHz |
| SYNC (pin 5) | Oscillator synchronization I/O | Enables multi-device synchronization or external clock locking; open-drain compatible |
| SD (pin 2) | Shutdown/standby control | Three-state logic: <0.7V = shutdown, 0.7–1.225V = standby, >1.225V = active operation |
| IS (pins 15,16) | Diode current sense | Measures re-circulating diode current to reconstruct DC level of inductor current |
| RAMP (pin 9) | Emulated current ramp generator | External capacitor sets slope; internal current source scales with (VIN − VOUT) for accurate PWM timing |
| PGND (pins 13,14) | Power ground return | Low-impedance return path for IS sense resistor and PRE switch; separate from AGND |
| AGND (pin 10) | Analog ground reference | Reference for FB, COMP, RT, RAMP, SS; must be star-connected to minimize noise coupling |
| COMP (pin 6) | Error amplifier output | Connects to type-II compensation network between COMP and FB for loop stability |
| OUT (pin 12) | Regulated output connection | Direct tie to output capacitor; not a power output but voltage sensing reference point |
| VCC (pin 1) | Bias regulator output | Supplies internal circuitry; regulated to ~7 V for VIN > 9 V; requires 0.1–1 µF ceramic decoupling |
| PRE (pin 19) | Bootstrap pre-charge assist | Open-drain output pulsed 265 ns before switch-on to charge BST capacitor under light-load conditions |
| EP | Exposed thermal pad | Must be soldered to PCB ground plane; primary thermal path for 40°C/W junction-to-ambient dissipation |
Key Features

| Integrated protection suite | Cycle-by-cycle current limit, thermal shutdown (165°C), and remote shutdown via SD pin ensure robust field operation |
| Thermally enhanced HTSSOP-20EP | Exposed pad reduces θJA to 40°C/W and θJB to 6.9°C/W, enabling 3A output without heatsink in properly laid-out PCBs |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM5576MH/NOPB?
The LM5576MH/NOPB has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 76 V, with recommended operating range from 6 V to 75 V. Operation above 75 V risks exceeding safe operating area limits and triggering overvoltage protection. Transient ringing on the VIN line must be suppressed with proper input capacitance and layout to avoid exceeding the 76 V absolute maximum, especially during hot-plug or load-dump events.
Does LM5576MH/NOPB include an integrated power MOSFET?
Yes, the LM5576MH/NOPB integrates a 75 V, 170 mΩ N-channel MOSFET rated for 3 A continuous output current. This eliminates the need for an external high-voltage switch and simplifies design for mid-power industrial buck converters. The MOSFET is used as the high-side switch in the buck topology, with SW pins connecting directly to the inductor and external Schottky diode.
How is the switching frequency set on LM5576MH/NOPB?
The switching frequency of LM5576MH/NOPB is set using a single external resistor connected between the RT pin and AGND. The relationship is defined by RT = (1/F − 580 ns) / 135 ps, yielding frequencies from 50 kHz to 500 kHz. For example, a 32.4 kΩ resistor sets ~200 kHz. The RT resistor must be placed adjacent to the IC with short traces to minimize noise coupling into the oscillator circuit.
What thermal management guidance applies to LM5576MH/NOPB?
LM5576MH/NOPB requires connection of its exposed thermal pad (EP) to a large PCB copper pour tied to PGND for effective heat dissipation. With proper layout, its junction-to-board thermal resistance is 6.9°C/W, enabling 3 A operation without a heatsink at ambient temperatures ≤85°C. Thermal shutdown activates at 165°C with 25°C hysteresis to protect against sustained overload or inadequate cooling.
Can multiple LM5576MH/NOPB devices be synchronized?
Yes, LM5576MH/NOPB supports synchronization of multiple units via the SYNC pin. Connecting SYNC pins together enables self-synchronization, where the highest-frequency device acts as master. Alternatively, an external clock can drive the SYNC pin to lock all devices to a common frequency-required pulse width is ≥15 ns, and interface should use open-drain drivers to avoid contention.
