Product details
Overview
LMR16006YDDCT from Texas Instruments is a 60 V input, 600 mA synchronous buck DC/DC regulator in SOT-6L package, featuring 2.1 MHz fixed-frequency current-mode control, 0.765 V feedback reference, and ECO mode for ultra-low 28 µA quiescent current-designed for industrial power conditioning and battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LMR16006YDDCT datasheet, LMR16006YDDCT pinout, LMR16006YDDCT application, or LMR16006YDDCT equivalent, key selection considerations include its 2.1 MHz switching frequency enabling compact magnetics, high-side MOSFET with integrated boot diode, thermal shutdown at 170°C, and high-voltage enable (SHDN) tolerant to 60 V.
Technical Context
The LMR16006YDDCT implements constant-frequency peak-current-mode control with internal slope compensation and leading-edge blanking, supporting stable regulation across wide input (4–60 V) and output (≥0.765 V) ranges. Its integrated high-side MOSFET features 900 mΩ RDS(on) and bootstrap gate drive via CB/SW pins, with UVLO protection on CB-to-SW voltage below 3 V.
ECO mode activates when inductor peak current falls ≤80 mA, reducing switching losses and achieving 28 µA operating IQ; shutdown draws only 1 µA. Overvoltage transient protection (OVTP) clamps FB > 108% of 0.765 V to suppress overshoot during load transients, while pulse-by-pulse current limit and thermal shutdown (170°C trip, 160°C hysteresis) ensure robust fault handling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4 V to 60 V - supports direct connection to automotive batteries, industrial rails, and unregulated 48 V systems without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | Up to 600 mA - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and RF modules in space-constrained designs. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.1 MHz (Y version) - enables use of small 22 µH inductors and 10 µF ceramic output capacitors, minimizing solution footprint. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.765 V (typ) - sets output voltage via resistor divider (VOUT = 0.765 × (1 + R1/R2)), allowing precise low-voltage regulation down to ~0.8 V. |
| Quiescent Current | 28 µA in ECO mode - extends battery life in always-on portable instruments and remote sensors. |
| Shutdown Current | 1 µA - ensures minimal drain during system sleep or storage, critical for long-life battery applications. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 170°C trip with 10°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design without requiring external thermal monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-6L (DDCT) package: 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm, low-profile surface-mount outline with exposed pad for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CB | Bootstrap capacitor terminal | Connects external 100 nF ceramic cap to SW; supplies gate drive voltage for internal high-side MOSFET; monitored for UVLO to prevent boot failure. |
| GND | Power and signal ground | Primary return path for power stage, control circuitry, and feedback network; must be low-impedance and tied to thermal pad. |
| FB | Feedback input | Monitors output voltage via resistor divider; regulates output by comparing to 0.765 V internal reference; high-impedance node requiring clean routing. |
| SHDN | Enable/disable control | High-voltage tolerant (≤60 V) logic input; pulled up internally; <1.25 V disables regulator and reduces IQ to 1 µA; float or ≥1.25 V enables operation. |
| VIN | Main power input | Supplies internal bias and drives high-side MOSFET drain; accepts 4–60 V; requires local 10 µF ceramic input capacitor near pin. |
| SW | Switch node | Connects to inductor, Schottky diode cathode, and CB capacitor; carries high dv/dt switching waveform; requires tight layout and minimal trace area. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated boot diode | Eliminates external bootstrap diode, reducing BOM count and layout complexity while maintaining reliable high-side gate drive. |
| ECO light-load mode | Automatically enters discontinuous conduction mode at light loads to reduce switching and gate-drive losses, sustaining >85% efficiency at 1 mA output. |
| Overvoltage transient protection (OVTP) | Detects FB > 0.826 V (108% of 0.765 V) and disables high-side switch to clamp output overshoot during rapid load release, critical for low-COUT designs. |
| Internal soft-start | Controls output ramp rate via internal SS capacitor, limiting inrush current into output capacitance and preventing input rail droop during startup. |
| High-voltage SHDN input | Accepts logic-level or system-rail enable signals up to 60 V without level-shifting, simplifying interface with microcontrollers or PMICs in multi-rail systems. |

FAQ
What is the switching frequency of the LMR16006YDDCT?
The LMR16006YDDCT operates at a fixed 2.1 MHz switching frequency, as designated by the 'Y' suffix. This high frequency allows use of miniature 22 µH inductors and low-ESR ceramic capacitors, significantly reducing solution size versus lower-frequency alternatives. The device does not support frequency adjustment or synchronization to external clocks.
Does the LMR16006YDDCT require an external bootstrap diode?
No, the LMR16006YDDCT integrates the bootstrap diode internally, eliminating the need for an external component between CB and VIN. This simplifies layout, reduces BOM count, and improves reliability-especially in high-vibration environments like automotive applications. Only a 100 nF ceramic capacitor between CB and SW is required.
How does ECO mode function in the LMR16006YDDCT?
ECO mode in the LMR16006YDDCT activates automatically when inductor peak current drops to ≤80 mA, reducing switching activity to minimize gate-drive and switching losses. This lowers operating quiescent current to 28 µA while maintaining regulation-extending battery life in portable devices. Mode transition is seamless and requires no external control.
What protection features are built into the LMR16006YDDCT?
The LMR16006YDDCT includes pulse-by-pulse overcurrent protection, thermal shutdown (170°C trip with 10°C hysteresis), input undervoltage lockout (4 V rising threshold), overvoltage transient protection (OVTP) to clamp FB > 0.826 V, and boot UVLO to prevent high-side MOSFET failure. All protections are fully internal and require no external components.
Can the LMR16006YDDCT regulate output voltages below 1 V?
Yes-the LMR16006YDDCT's 0.765 V feedback reference enables output regulation down to approximately 0.8 V using standard resistor dividers. For example, a 50 kΩ top resistor and 100 kΩ bottom resistor yields VOUT = 0.765 × (1 + 50/100) = 1.1475 V. Lower outputs require precision resistors and careful layout to minimize noise injection at the FB pin.
