Product details
Overview
LMR36506R5RPER from Texas Instruments is a 5-V fixed-output, 0.6A synchronous buck converter in a 2mm × 2mm HotRod™ QFN (RPE) package, operating from 3.0V to 65V input with 4µA no-load quiescent current and peak efficiency of 90% at 24VIN/5VOUT. It delivers rugged industrial power for field transmitters, HVAC sensors, and garden tools requiring surge immunity per IEC 61000-4-5 and stable operation up to +150°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the LMR36506R5RPER datasheet, LMR36506R5RPER pinout, LMR36506R5RPER application, or LMR36506R5RPER equivalent, key selection factors include its 5-V fixed output accuracy (±1.5%), RT-programmable switching frequency (200kHz–2.2MHz), precision EN/UVLO threshold (1.263V), PGOOD flag with 2.16ms activation delay, and internal compensation enabling minimal external components.
Technical Context
The LMR36506R5RPER uses peak current mode control with internal compensation, supporting stable regulation across wide input voltage (3.0V–65V) and load (0–0.6A) ranges while minimizing required output capacitance. Its architecture includes automatic frequency foldback during dropout and integrated soft-start (2.58ms typical).
It integrates a precision enable comparator with 0.35V hysteresis, a glitch-filtered open-drain PGOOD output (107% OV / 94% UV thresholds), and thermal shutdown with 10°C hysteresis (158°C trip). The VOUT/BIAS pin is internally connected to the 5-V output, eliminating external feedback resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.0V (falling threshold) to 65V - supports wide industrial rails and withstands 70V transients without damage. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0V ±1.5% - eliminates feedback resistor network and reduces BOM count. |
| Max Output Current | 0.6A continuous - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and analog front-ends in compact systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 4µA at 24VIN → 5VOUT - enables multi-year battery life in always-on industrial IoT nodes. |
| Switching Frequency | 200kHz–2.2MHz via RT pin - allows EMI optimization and inductor size reduction across applications. |
| Junction Temperature | –40°C to +150°C - rated for under-hood, factory floor, and high-ambient embedded environments. |
| Package | 2mm × 2mm HotRod™ QFN (RPE, 9-pin) - ultra-small footprint with corner anchor pins for robust solder joint reliability. |
Pinout & Package
LMR36506R5RPER is housed in a 2mm × 2mm VQFN-HR (RPE) package with wettable flank leads for optical solder inspection and enhanced thermal performance. The 9-pin layout features exposed thermal pad (GND-connected) and optimized power/ground routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RT | Frequency programming input | Connects to GND/VCC/resistor to set switching frequency from 200kHz to 2.2MHz; must not float. |
| 2 - PGOOD | Open-drain power-good flag | Signals regulated output (107%/94% thresholds); includes 25µs glitch filter and 2.16ms activation delay. |
| 3 - EN/UVLO | Enable and input undervoltage lockout | 0.4V wake-up threshold; 1.263V precise turn-on with 0.35V hysteresis; supports direct VIN connection. |
| 4 - VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 3.0V–65V; requires local high-quality bypass capacitor; withstands 70V transients. |
| 5 - SW | Switch node | Connects to power inductor; drives internal high-side MOSFET (920mΩ max RDS(on)) and low-side (460mΩ max). |
| 6 - BOOT | Bootstrap supply | Requires 100nF ceramic capacitor to SW; enables high-side gate drive; UVLO triggers at 2.3V. |
| 7 - VCC | Internal LDO output | 3.15V internal bias rail (65–240mA limit); powers control circuitry; decouple with 1µF to GND. |
| 8 - VOUT/BIAS | Fixed 5-V output node | Internally tied to regulated 5V output; serves as output and logic supply for PGOOD; no external divider needed. |
| 9 - GND | Power ground | Thermal and electrical reference; connects to exposed pad; requires short/wide trace to CIN. |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the output voltage accuracy of the LMR36506R5RPER?
The LMR36506R5RPER provides a fixed 5.0V output with initial accuracy of ±1.5% over temperature and line (–40°C to +150°C, 3.6V–65V input). This is specified in FPWM mode and ensures reliable operation for 5V-tolerant microcontrollers and analog ICs without external trimming.
Does the LMR36506R5RPER require external compensation components?
No, the LMR36506R5RPER features internal compensation optimized for stability with minimal output capacitance. This eliminates the need for external Type-II or Type-III compensation networks, reducing BOM count and layout complexity compared to traditional buck controllers.
Can the LMR36506R5RPER operate with input voltages below 3.6V?
The LMR36506R5RPER has a falling threshold of 3.0V, allowing operation down to 3.0V after startup. However, the recommended minimum operating input voltage is 3.6V; operation below this may result in reduced output regulation margin or dropout behavior depending on load and ambient conditions.
How does the PGOOD function behave during startup and fault conditions in the LMR36506R5RPER?
The LMR36506R5RPER's PGOOD pin remains low during startup until VOUT reaches 94% of 5V (4.7V), then asserts high after a 2.16ms delay. It goes low again during overvoltage (>5.25V), undervoltage (<4.7V), thermal shutdown, or current limit-ensuring accurate system-level power sequencing and fault detection.
Is the LMR36506R5RPER pin-compatible with other members of the LMR36506 family?
Yes, all LMR36506 variants-including LMR36506R5RPER, LMR36506R3RPER, and LMR36506RRPER-share identical 9-pin RPE (2mm × 2mm) package and pinout. Only the VOUT/BIAS or FB pin functionality differs; no PCB redesign is needed when migrating between fixed 3.3V, fixed 5V, or adjustable versions.
