Product details
Overview
LMR36503R5RPER from Texas Instruments is a 3-V to 65-V, 0.3-A synchronous buck converter in a 2-mm × 2-mm HotRod™ VQFN-HR (RPE) package with fixed 5-V output, 4 µA no-load quiescent current at 24 VIN, and input transient tolerance up to 70 V. It delivers >90% peak efficiency at 1 MHz for industrial field transmitters and process sensors requiring rugged, compact DC/DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LMR36503R5RPER datasheet, LMR36503R5RPER pinout, LMR36503R5RPER application, or LMR36503R5RPER equivalent, key selection considerations include its –40°C to +150°C junction temperature range, RT-pin programmable switching frequency (200 kHz–2.2 MHz), PGOOD flag with glitch filtering, precision EN/UVLO threshold (1.263 V), and wettable-flank RPE package for optical solder inspection.
Technical Context
The LMR36503R5RPER uses peak current mode control with internal compensation, enabling stable regulation with minimal external output capacitance. Its adaptive frequency foldback maintains regulation during wide input transients by automatically reducing switching frequency when minimum on-/off-time limits are exceeded.
It integrates high- and low-side MOSFETs (RDS(on) = 920 mΩ / 460 mΩ), an internal 3.15-V LDO for bias, and a precision power-good flag with 1.956-ms activation delay and 15–40-µs glitch filter. The EN pin supports direct VIN connection with 0.4-V wake-up and 1.263-V enable thresholds plus 0.35-V hysteresis.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
LMR36503R5RPER is housed in a 9-pin VQFN-HR (RPE) package measuring 2.00 mm × 2.00 mm with exposed thermal pad and wettable flanks for solder inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RT | Frequency programming input | Connects to resistor-to-GND to set switching frequency from 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz; must not be floated. |
| 2 - PGOOD | Open-drain power-good flag | Signals regulated output with 1.956-ms delay and built-in glitch filter; eliminates need for external supervisor IC. |
| 3 - EN/UVLO | Enable and input undervoltage lockout | 0.4-V wake-up and 1.263-V precise enable threshold with 0.35-V hysteresis; supports direct VIN tie for simple start-up. |
| 4 - VIN | Main input power supply | Accepts 3–65 V; requires local high-quality bypass capacitor; withstands 70-V transients without damage. |
| 5 - SW | Power switch node | Connects to external inductor; carries high di/dt; layout critical for EMI and efficiency. |
| 6 - BOOT | High-side gate driver bootstrap | Requires 100-nF ceramic capacitor to SW; UVLO threshold 2.3 V ensures reliable HS FET turn-on. |
| 7 - VCC | Internal LDO output | 3.15-V regulated supply for control circuitry; decouple with 1-µF capacitor to GND; not for external loading. |
| 8 - VOUT/BIAS | Fixed 5-V output sense & bias | Direct connection to output for fixed 5-V operation; supplies internal circuits and can serve as logic rail for PGOOD pull-up. |
| 9 - GND | Power ground | Common return for VIN, SW, and VOUT; must connect to CIN with short, wide traces to minimize noise and thermal resistance. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LMR36503R5RPER can withstand during transients?
The LMR36503R5RPER supports input transients up to 70 V, exceeding its 65-V maximum operating input voltage. This capability meets IEC 61000-4-5 surge immunity requirements and eliminates the need for external TVS diodes in industrial 24-V and 48-V systems. The device remains functional and undamaged during such events, ensuring system reliability without added protection components.
Does the LMR36503R5RPER require external compensation components?
No, the LMR36503R5RPER uses peak current mode control with internal compensation, removing the need for external RC networks typically required in voltage-mode buck converters. This simplifies PCB layout, reduces bill-of-materials cost, and accelerates design validation-especially beneficial for compact industrial modules where space and component count are constrained.
How does the PGOOD function behave during startup and fault conditions in the LMR36503R5RPER?
The LMR36503R5RPER's PGOOD pin asserts high after a 1.956-ms delay once VOUT reaches 90% of target, with a built-in 15–40-µs glitch filter to reject noise. During faults-including overvoltage (110% of VOUT), undervoltage (94% of VOUT), or EN deactivation-PGOOD pulls low within microseconds. This provides deterministic system sequencing without external supervision circuitry.
Can the LMR36503R5RPER operate efficiently at light loads typical in sensor applications?
Yes, the LMR36503R5RPER operates in pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) mode at light loads, achieving 4 µA quiescent current at 24 VIN → 5 VOUT. This enables multi-year operation from coin-cell or supercapacitor sources in wireless sensor nodes. Efficiency remains above 75% down to 100-µA load, preserving battery energy without compromising regulation accuracy.
What is the purpose of the RT pin on the LMR36503R5RPER, and how is it configured?
The RT pin on the LMR36503R5RPER sets switching frequency from 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz using an external resistor to GND. Connecting RT to VCC fixes fSW at 1 MHz; connecting to GND sets 2.2 MHz. Floating RT disables switching. This flexibility allows EMI optimization, AM-band avoidance, and layout-driven frequency selection without changing the IC or footprint.
