Product details
Overview
LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive-grade synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with integrated 90 mΩ high-side MOSFET, 4 V to 40 V input range, 3.5 A continuous output current, 40 µA quiescent current in sleep mode, and spread-spectrum EMI reduction - designed for battery regulation in engine control units and ADAS domain controllers.
For engineers reviewing the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 datasheet, LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 pinout, LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 application, or LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 equivalent, key selection considerations include its WSON-10 package thermal performance (RθJC(bot) = 3.1 °C/W), 75 ns minimum on-time for high VIN/VOUT ratios, precision enable threshold (1.2 V typ), and RT/SYNC dual-mode frequency control (200 kHz–2.5 MHz).
Technical Context
The LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 implements fixed-frequency peak current mode control with internal compensation and slope compensation to prevent subharmonic oscillation above 50% duty cycle. It supports both resistor-programmed (RT-to-GND) and external clock synchronization (250 kHz–2.3 MHz) modes via the same RT/SYNC pin.
Sleep-mode operation reduces switching losses at light load by clamping COMP voltage at 400 mV and disabling the high-side MOSFET until output droop triggers recovery - achieving 40 µA IQ while maintaining regulation. Its bootstrap circuit enables up to 97% effective duty cycle, supported by a dedicated BOOT pin and internal low-side switch for BOOT capacitor recharge during dropout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4 V to 40 V - supports direct connection to automotive battery (cold-crank down to 4 V) and industrial 24 V/36 V rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 3.5 A continuous - delivers full rated load at TA = 125°C in WSON-10 package with PCB thermal relief. |
| Quiescent Current | 40 µA in sleep mode - extends battery runtime in always-on vehicle modules (e.g., telematics, body ECUs). |
| Switching Frequency | 200 kHz to 2.5 MHz - adjustable via RT resistor or external clock; higher frequencies reduce inductor size, lower frequencies improve light-load efficiency. |
| High-Side RDS(on) | 90 mΩ (typ) - minimizes conduction loss at 3.5 A, enabling >90% efficiency at 12 VIN/5 VOUT @ 2 A. |
| Min. On-Time | 75 ns - enables high step-down ratios (e.g., 36 V → 3.3 V at 2.2 MHz) without pulse-skipping instability. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.750 V ±1.2% (–40°C to 125°C) - sets output accuracy; supports precise 3.3 V, 5 V, or custom voltages with 1% resistors. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJC(bot) = 3.1 °C/W - enables direct die-to-PCB heat transfer via exposed thermal pad, critical for automotive under-hood operation. |
Pinout & Package
LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 uses a 10-pin WSON package (4 mm × 4 mm) with exposed thermal pad (Pin 11) for low-junction-to-board thermal resistance (RθJB = 13.6 °C/W). The package is RoHS-compliant and moisture-sensitive level 2a.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VIN | Power Input | Main input supply connection; bypassed externally with high-frequency ceramic capacitor to minimize noise injection. |
| 2,3 GND | Ground Return | Dual ground pins reduce impedance path for high di/dt return currents; must connect directly to solid ground plane. |
| 4 EN | Enable Control | Logic-level enable with 1.2 V threshold and internal 1 µA pull-up; supports system power sequencing and UVLO customization via resistor divider. |
| 5 RT/SYNC | Frequency Control | Dual-function pin: sets switching frequency via RT resistor (200 kHz–2.5 MHz) or accepts external sync clock (250 kHz–2.3 MHz). |
| 6 SS | Soft-Start Timing | Connects to external capacitor (max 4.7 nF) to program controlled output ramp; prevents inrush current during startup. |
| 7 FB | Voltage Feedback | High-impedance input sensing output voltage via resistor divider; 0.75 V reference enables accurate regulation across temperature. |
| 8 PGOOD | Power-Good Flag | Open-drain output asserting when VOUT is within ±3% of target; requires external pull-up to logic rail ≤7 V. |
| 9,10 SW | Switch Node | Drives external power inductor; high di/dt node requiring tight layout and minimal trace length to reduce EMI. |
| 11 Thermal Pad | Heat Dissipation | Exposed copper pad (Pin 11) - must be soldered to ≥2 cm² internal/external ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Spread-spectrum modulation | Reduces peak EMI by ±6% frequency dithering - meets CISPR 25 Class 5 requirements without added shielding or filters. |
| Internal loop compensation | Eliminates need for external compensation network - reduces BOM count and design iteration time for stable operation. |
| Precision enable with UVLO hysteresis | EN threshold (1.2 V) + programmable hysteresis via external resistors - enables robust system-level brownout protection. |
| Ultra-low shutdown current | 1 µA max shutdown IQ - preserves battery charge during vehicle sleep mode (e.g., parking surveillance systems). |
| Thermal & fault protection | Integrated thermal shutdown (170°C), cycle-by-cycle current limit, output overvoltage protection, and short-circuit foldback - ensures safe operation under fault conditions. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to 125°C ambient), HBM ±2 kV, CDM ±750 V - validated for under-hood and safety-critical applications. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1?
The LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 44 V, with recommended operating range from 4 V to 40 V. This allows reliable operation during automotive load-dump events (up to 40 V) while maintaining functional safety margins per AEC-Q100 stress guidelines.
Does the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 require external compensation components?
No, the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 features fully internal loop compensation. This eliminates the need for external Type II or Type III compensation networks, reducing component count, PCB area, and design validation effort while ensuring stable operation across all qualified output capacitors.
How does the spread-spectrum feature in the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 reduce EMI?
The LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 modulates its switching frequency by ±6% around the center value, spreading energy across a wider bandwidth. This lowers peak radiated emissions by up to 10 dB, helping designs meet stringent CISPR 25 Class 5 automotive EMC requirements without additional ferrites or shielding.
What is the thermal pad connection requirement for the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 WSON package?
The exposed thermal pad (Pin 11) of the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 must be soldered to a minimum 2 cm² copper area on an internal or external PCB ground plane. This establishes the primary heat dissipation path, achieving RθJC(bot) = 3.1 °C/W and enabling full 3.5 A output at 125°C ambient.
Can the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 synchronize to an external clock, and what are the timing requirements?
Yes, the LMR14030SQDPRRQ1 supports external clock synchronization on the RT/SYNC pin across 250 kHz–2.3 MHz. Required signal levels are VHIGH ≥ 1.7 V, VLOW ≤ 0.5 V, and minimum pulse width ≥ 30 ns, with lock-in time of 100 µs after clock initiation.
