Product details
Overview
LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive synchronous step-down DC-DC converter delivering up to 4 A output current across 3 V–36 V input, with factory-trimmed 5-V fixed output, ±1% total regulation accuracy, and 42-V load dump tolerance. It serves as a primary power supply for infotainment head units and ADAS domain controllers requiring low EMI and high reliability.
For engineers reviewing the LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 datasheet, LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 pinout, LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 application, or LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.1-MHz fixed switching frequency, HotRod™ VQFN-HR package with wettable flanks, spread spectrum and adjustable SW rise time for EMI reduction, and functional safety documentation support.
Technical Context
The LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 integrates high-side and low-side MOSFETs (RDS(on) = 41 mΩ / 21 mΩ) and implements soft recovery from dropout to eliminate output overshoot. Its dual VIN pins (VIN1/VIN2) and parallel input path reduce parasitic inductance, while the RBOOT/CBOOT interface enables precise control of switch-node rise time (2.15 ns to 2.7 ns).
It supports Auto mode (PFM/PWM seamless transition), FPWM mode via MODE/SYNC pin, and external synchronization from 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz. The device uses a precision 1-V internal reference with feedback accuracy of ±1%, and features integrated thermal shutdown (168°C trip) and hiccup-mode overcurrent protection.

Pinout & Package
VQFN-HR (14-pin) package with 4.00 mm × 3.50 mm body size and wettable flanks for automotive-grade solder joint inspection and thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BIAS (1) | Internal LDO bias input | Connect to output voltage to improve light-load efficiency; tie to GND if VOUT > 12 V. |
| VCC (2) | Internal LDO output | Supplies internal control circuitry; requires 1-µF capacitor to AGND; no external loading permitted. |
| AGND (3) | Analog ground reference | Reference point for FB and VCC; must be connected to both PGND1 and PGND2 on PCB. |
| FB (4) | Feedback input | Internally connected to 5-V trim network; no external divider needed for fixed-output operation. |
| PGOOD (5) | Open-drain power-good indicator | Asserts high when output is within ±7% of 5 V; pulls low during EN deactivation or fault. |

| EN (7) | Enable input | Active-high precision enable with 1.263 V threshold and 24% hysteresis; supports adjustable UVLO. |
| VIN1 (8), VIN2 (12) | Dual input power rails | Parallel input paths reduce loop inductance; each requires local high-quality bypass capacitors to respective PGND. |
| PGND1 (9), PGND2 (11) | Power ground returns | Low-impedance return paths for internal low-side MOSFET; must be tied together near device footprint. |
| SW (10) | Switch node | Drives external output inductor; connects to CBOOT via internal diode and external 100-nF bootstrap capacitor. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM61440CPPQRJRRQ1 | Same 5-V fixed output and 2.1-MHz frequency, but rated for 36-V max input (not 42-V tolerant). | Lacks 42-V load dump support; unsuitable for direct replacement in systems requiring ISO 7637-2 compliance. | Select LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 when 42-V transient immunity is mandatory; LM61440CPPQRJRRQ1 only where input clamping is externally implemented. |
| LM62440BPPQRJRRQ1 | Identical package, pinout, and 2.1-MHz frequency, but factory-trimmed to 3.3-V output. | Requires redesign of downstream logic voltage levels; not drop-in for 5-V systems. | Choose LM62440BPPQRJRRQ1 only when migrating to 3.3-V core rails; LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 remains optimal for existing 5-V architectures. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1, and how does it handle automotive transients?
The LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 supports absolute maximum input voltage of 42 V, enabling direct connection to 12-V automotive batteries during load dump events per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a. Its internal protection circuits maintain regulation and avoid latch-up or damage during 400-ms 42-V transients, eliminating need for external TVS clamping in many designs.
Does LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 require external feedback resistors for its 5-V output?
No, LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 is factory-trimmed to deliver a precise 5-V output with ±1% total regulation accuracy. The FB pin is internally connected to the 5-V reference network, so no external resistor divider is required-reducing BOM count, layout area, and calibration uncertainty.
How does the MODE/SYNC pin configure operation modes on LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1?
The MODE/SYNC pin on LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 selects Auto mode (default, PFM/PWM auto-transition), FPWM mode (constant frequency at light loads), or external clock synchronization (200 kHz–2.2 MHz). Spread spectrum is enabled/disabled via voltage thresholds (2.5 V / 4.9 V), and resistance-based configuration (6 kΩ / 30 kΩ) sets EMI behavior without firmware.
What thermal performance can be expected from LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 in a typical 4-layer PCB layout?
In a standard 4-layer JEDEC board, LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 achieves RθJA = 25°C/W. With proper copper pour and thermal vias under the exposed pad, it sustains 4-A continuous output at +85°C ambient without derating. Thermal shutdown activates at 168°C (±10°C hysteresis), ensuring safe operation under overload or airflow loss.
Is LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 pin-compatible with other devices in the LM6x440-Q1 family?
Yes, LM62440CPPQRJRRQ1 shares identical VQFN-HR (14-pin) package, pinout, and footprint with LM61440-Q1, LM61460-Q1, and LMQ62440-Q1. This enables scalable power design-e.g., upgrading from 4 A to 6 A by swapping to LM61460CPPQRJRRQ1 without PCB revision.
