Product details
Overview
LMR51610YDBVR from Texas Instruments is a 1-A, 4-V to 65-V input synchronous buck converter in SOT-23-6 package, featuring 1.1-MHz PFM switching, ±1.5% reference voltage accuracy, 80-ns minimum on-time, and -40°C to 150°C junction temperature range. It delivers regulated DC power for industrial PLCs, smart meters, and major appliances with rugged transient protection up to 70 V.
For engineers reviewing the LMR51610YDBVR datasheet, LMR51610YDBVR pinout, LMR51610YDBVR application, or LMR51610YDBVR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 1.1-MHz PFM operation for high light-load efficiency, 70-V input transient tolerance, integrated bootstrap driver, monotonic start-up with pre-biased output, and precision enable with adjustable UVLO.
Technical Context
The LMR51610YDBVR employs fixed-frequency peak-current mode control with internal compensation, enabling stable regulation using minimal external components. Its 1.1-MHz PFM operation dynamically reduces switching frequency at light load to maximize efficiency while maintaining regulation.
It integrates high-side and low-side NMOS switches with 0.7-Ω/0.36-Ω typical RDS(on), supports duty cycles up to 98%, and implements cycle-by-cycle current limiting, hiccup-mode short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown at 165°C with 20°C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4 V to 65 V - supports wide industrial unregulated rails including 12 V, 24 V, 36 V, 48 V, and 65 V systems. |
| Output Current | 1 A continuous - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and communication ICs in space-constrained designs. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.1 MHz (±13%) - enables use of smaller magnetics and capacitors; PFM mode improves light-load efficiency. |
| Reference Voltage | 0.8 V ±1.5% - ensures tight output regulation across temperature; sets adjustable VOUT from 0.8 V to 28 V via FB divider. |
| Min. On-Time | 80 ns - supports high step-down ratios (e.g., 48 V → 3.3 V) without requiring frequency foldback at nominal conditions. |
| Junction Temp. Range | –40°C to +150°C - qualified for harsh industrial environments including motor drives and factory automation. |
| UVLO Threshold | 3.82 V (rising), 3.4 V (falling), 0.25 V hysteresis - provides robust input rail monitoring and prevents erratic startup. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-6 (DBV) package: 2.90 mm × 2.80 mm footprint with 0.95 mm height; thermally enhanced for 1-A operation in compact layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CB | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connects 100-nF ceramic capacitor to SW; supplies gate drive for integrated high-side MOSFET. |
| GND | Power ground | Internal source node of low-side FET; must be tied directly to system ground and CIN/COUT ground planes. |
| FB | Feedback input | Analog input sensing output voltage via resistor divider; never shorted to ground during operation. |
| EN | Enable control | Precision analog input: 1.227 V typical turn-on threshold; supports external UVLO divider or direct VIN tie. |
| VIN | Input supply | Connects to input source and bypass capacitors; powers internal bias LDO and high-side driver circuitry. |
| SW | Switch node | Drives external inductor; internally connects drain of low-side FET and source of high-side FET. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated synchronous rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode; reduces conduction losses and improves full-load efficiency by ~3–5%. |
| Internal compensation | Enables stable loop response with only FB divider and input/output capacitors-no external compensation network required. |
| Monotonic start-up with pre-biased output | Prevents reverse current flow into powered outputs during hot-plug or system sequencing events. |
| Short-circuit protection with hiccup mode | Shuts down after fault detection, waits ~30 ms, then retries-limits power dissipation and prevents thermal runaway. |
| Input transient protection up to 70 V | Withstands automotive load-dump surges and industrial line transients without external clamping components. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMR51610XDBVR | 400-kHz PFM switching (vs. 1.1 MHz); same 1-A rating, package, and feature set. | Better suited for designs prioritizing EMI reduction over size; requires larger inductors/capacitors. | Select when lower switching frequency eases EMI filtering or when higher light-load efficiency at <100 kHz is critical. |
| LMR54410RGER | 2.5-A output, 2.1-MHz FPWM/PFM, 3-V to 36-V input, WQFN-10 package; no 70-V transient rating. | Targets higher-current applications with tighter board space constraints but lacks 65-V input capability. | Choose when >1-A load current is needed and input voltage stays below 36 V; not suitable for 48-V+ industrial rails. |
Compared with LMR51610XDBVR, the LMR51610YDBVR achieves smaller passive component size and better high-frequency EMI performance due to its 1.1-MHz operation, while retaining identical thermal robustness and protection features. Against LMR54410RGER, it trades higher current capability for wider input range and superior surge resilience-critical for legacy industrial infrastructure.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LMR51610YDBVR can withstand during transients?
The LMR51610YDBVR supports input transients up to 70 V, exceeding its 65-V maximum continuous operating voltage. This rating allows reliable operation during automotive load-dump events or industrial power surges without external clamping components. The device remains functional and protected under these conditions per its absolute maximum ratings specification.
Does the LMR51610YDBVR require an external bootstrap capacitor?
Yes, the LMR51610YDBVR requires a 100-nF ceramic capacitor (X7R/X5R, ≥16 V rating) between the CB and SW pins to supply gate drive voltage for the internal high-side MOSFET. This capacitor is refreshed during low-side conduction and is essential for proper high-side switching operation and efficiency.
Can the LMR51610YDBVR operate with a pre-biased output?
Yes, the LMR51610YDBVR supports monotonic start-up into a pre-biased output, preventing reverse current flow during hot-plug or system sequencing. This behavior is enabled by internal circuitry that monitors FB voltage and controls soft-start timing independently of output voltage state.
What is the feedback reference voltage accuracy of the LMR51610YDBVR over temperature?
The LMR51610YDBVR features a ±1.5% reference voltage (0.8 V) over the full –40°C to +150°C junction temperature range. This tight tolerance ensures stable output regulation across industrial operating conditions without requiring post-production calibration or trimming.
How does the LMR51610YDBVR handle short-circuit faults?
The LMR51610YDBVR uses hiccup-mode short-circuit protection: upon detecting sustained overload or output short, it shuts down, waits ~30 ms, then attempts restart. This limits average power dissipation and prevents thermal damage while allowing automatic recovery once the fault clears-no manual reset required.
