Product details
Overview
LMR14006XDDCR from Texas Instruments is a 40 V input, 600 mA synchronous buck DC/DC regulator in TSOT-6L package, featuring 1.1 MHz fixed switching frequency, 0.765 V feedback reference, and ultra-low 28 µA quiescent current in sleep mode-designed for battery-powered industrial and automotive power conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LMR14006XDDCR datasheet, LMR14006XDDCR pinout, LMR14006XDDCR application, or LMR14006XDDCR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4–40 V input range, integrated high-side MOSFET with bootstrap gate drive, internal compensation, thermal shutdown at 170°C, and compatibility with ceramic output capacitors in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The LMR14006XDDCR implements constant-frequency peak current-mode control with internal slope compensation and leading-edge blanking to stabilize loop response and suppress noise-induced false triggering. Its integrated boot regulator refreshes the CB-to-SW capacitor during low-side conduction, enabling high-duty-cycle operation up to 96% while maintaining gate drive integrity.
Sleep mode activates when peak inductor current falls below ~80 mA, reducing switching and gate-drive losses to sustain 28 µA quiescent current; shutdown draws only 1 µA. Overvoltage transient protection (OVTP) clamps the high-side switch if FB exceeds 108% of 0.765 V, limiting output overshoot during load unload transients.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4 V to 40 V - supports wide-input industrial and automotive rails without pre-regulation |
| Output Current | Up to 600 mA - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs |
| Switching Frequency | 1.1 MHz (X version) - enables compact 2.2–10 µH inductors and low-ESR ceramic output caps |
| Feedback Reference | 0.765 V ±1.5% - sets precise output voltage via external resistor divider (e.g., 5 V = R1=54.9 kΩ, R2=10 kΩ) |
| Quiescent Current | 28 µA in sleep mode - extends battery runtime in always-on portable equipment |
| Shutdown Current | 1 µA - minimizes leakage drain during system standby or storage |
| Thermal Shutdown | 170°C trip, 160°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design |
Pinout & Package
LMR14006XDDCR is housed in a thermally enhanced TSOT-6L package (2.9 mm × 1.6 mm, 0.95 mm height) with exposed thermal pad for improved power dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CB (Pin 1) | Bootstrap bias supply | Connects external 100 nF ceramic capacitor to SW; supplies gate drive voltage for internal high-side MOSFET |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power ground | Main return path for input, output, and internal circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to thermal pad |
| FB (Pin 3) | Voltage feedback input | Monitors output via resistor divider; regulates output by comparing to 0.765 V internal reference |
| /SHDN (Pin 4) | Enable/disable control | High-voltage tolerant (≤40 V); pulled high internally; <1.2 V disables regulator and reduces IQ to 1 µA |
| VIN (Pin 5) | Main power input | Supplies internal bias and high-side MOSFET drain; accepts 4–40 V with UVLO at 4 V (rising) |
| SW (Pin 6) | Switch node | Connects to inductor, catch diode anode, and CB capacitor; carries high dv/dt switching waveform |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated boot recharge diode | Eliminates external diode, reducing BOM count and layout area in TSOT-6L footprint |
| Internal soft-start | Prevents inrush current during startup; eliminates need for external timing capacitor |
| Pulse-by-pulse overcurrent protection | Clamps COMP node to limit peak switch current to 1.2 A, preventing MOSFET failure under short-circuit |
| Overvoltage transient protection (OVTP) | Disables high-side switch if FB > 0.826 V (108% × 0.765 V), suppressing output overshoot with low-COUT designs |
| High-voltage enable input | /SHDN tolerates up to 40 V, allowing direct connection to unregulated 12/24 V rails without level-shifting |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMR14006YDDCR | 2.1 MHz switching frequency vs. 1.1 MHz; identical pinout, package, and electrical specs otherwise | Better suited for ultra-compact designs requiring smaller inductors (<4.7 µH) and lower output capacitance | Select Y version when board area is constrained and higher-frequency EMI filtering is manageable |
| TPS54202DDCR | 2.1 MHz, 4.5–28 V input, 2 A output; requires external compensation; no integrated boot diode | Higher current capability but larger solution size and more complex loop tuning | Choose TPS54202DDCR only when >600 mA load or wider VIN range beyond 40 V is required |
Compared with LMR14006YDDCR, the LMR14006XDDCR offers lower EMI and relaxed layout sensitivity due to its 1.1 MHz frequency, while TPS54202DDCR trades integration for higher output current and flexibility-neither is pin-compatible, but both serve overlapping mid-power buck use cases.

FAQ
What is the maximum duty cycle supported by the LMR14006XDDCR?
The LMR14006XDDCR supports up to 96% maximum duty cycle, enabled by its bootstrap UVLO circuit and internal boot capacitor refresh mechanism. This allows operation down to output voltages near the 0.765 V feedback reference-even at high input-to-output ratios-provided the CB-to-SW voltage remains above 3 V. The device maintains regulation during dropout conditions by dynamically managing boot charge transfer.
Does the LMR14006XDDCR require an external bootstrap diode?
No, the LMR14006XDDCR integrates the bootstrap recharge diode internally, eliminating the need for an external component between CB and VIN. This reduces bill-of-materials count and PCB area while improving reliability. Only a single 100 nF ceramic capacitor between CB and SW is required to establish the gate drive voltage for the internal high-side MOSFET.
How does sleep mode activate and what load conditions trigger it in the LMR14006XDDCR?
Sleep mode in the LMR14006XDDCR activates automatically when peak inductor current falls below approximately 80 mA-regardless of average load current-and the output voltage remains within regulation. It is not triggered by light average load alone; rather, it responds to instantaneous current demand. This behavior makes sleep mode highly dependent on inductor value and switching frequency, and it reduces quiescent current to 28 µA without compromising regulation accuracy.
Can the LMR14006XDDCR be used with ceramic output capacitors only?
Yes, the LMR14006XDDCR is fully compatible with ceramic output capacitors and is optimized for them. Its internal compensation and current-mode control architecture ensure stability with low-ESR ceramics (e.g., 10 µF X5R/X7R). No additional ESR-based damping is required, unlike older voltage-mode controllers. Typical designs use 4.7–22 µF ceramic capacitors, enabling compact, low-noise, and high-reliability power solutions.
What protection features are built into the LMR14006XDDCR?
The LMR14006XDDCR includes pulse-by-pulse overcurrent protection (1.2 A typical limit), thermal shutdown (170°C trip, 10°C hysteresis), input undervoltage lockout (4 V rising threshold), overvoltage transient protection (clamps SW if FB exceeds 0.826 V), and shutdown current limiting (1 µA). These features operate autonomously without external components, ensuring robust fault recovery and system-level safety in unattended operation.
