Product details
Overview
LMR51610YFDBVR from Texas Instruments is a 1-A, 1.1-MHz fixed-frequency synchronous buck converter in SOT-23-6 package, supporting 4 V to 65 V input and adjustable output voltage (0.8 V–28 V). It features forced PWM (FPWM) operation for constant switching frequency and low output ripple, integrated high- and low-side MOSFETs (RDSON(HS) = 0.7 Ω, RDSON(LS) = 0.36 Ω), and operates across –40°C to +150°C junction temperature - deployed in industrial power rails for PLCs and smart meters.
For engineers reviewing the LMR51610YFDBVR datasheet, LMR51610YFDBVR pinout, LMR51610YFDBVR application, or LMR51610YFDBVR equivalent, key selection considerations include its FPWM mode for stable light-load regulation, 80-ns minimum on-time for high VIN/VOUT ratios, ±1.5% reference tolerance, hiccup-mode short-circuit protection, and compatibility with compact 2.9 mm × 2.8 mm PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LMR51610YFDBVR employs fixed-frequency peak-current mode control with internal compensation, eliminating external loop components. Its FPWM variant maintains 1.1 MHz switching across full load range, enabling predictable EMI filtering and tight output voltage regulation (±2.5% over line/load/temperature).
It integrates bootstrap gate drive (CB pin), precision enable with adjustable UVLO, monotonic start-up into pre-biased outputs, and dual current limiting (high-side peak: 1.25–1.95 A; low-side valley: 0.9–1.3 A) - all operating within a single 6-pin SOT-23 package rated for 150°C junction temperature and 70-V input transients.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4 V to 65 V - supports unregulated industrial rails including 24 V, 36 V, 48 V, and 60 V DC systems without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 1 A continuous - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and I/O drivers in space-constrained industrial modules. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.1 MHz (±15%) - enables use of sub-2.2 µH inductors and reduces output capacitor size while maintaining EMI predictability. |
| Reference Voltage | 0.8 V ±1.5% - sets tight output accuracy for adjustable VOUT (0.8 V–28 V) using standard 1% feedback resistors. |
| Min ON Time | 80 ns - allows stable operation at high input-to-output voltage ratios (e.g., 48 V → 3.3 V) without frequency foldback. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood, motor control, and enclosed industrial environments without derating. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 147.8°C/W (JEDEC 4-layer board) - requires minimal copper area for thermal management in SOT-23 footprint. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-6 (DBV) package: 2.90 mm × 2.80 mm footprint with 0.95 mm height; thermally enhanced pad-less design optimized for manual and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CB | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connects 100-nF X7R ceramic capacitor to SW; supplies gate drive for integrated high-side FET - no external charge pump required. |
| GND | Power ground | Common return for low-side FET source, CIN, and COUT; must be shorted directly to system ground with minimal trace inductance. |
| FB | Feedback input | Monitors output via resistor divider; 0.8-V reference enables precise VOUT setting - never short to GND during operation. |
| EN | Enable control | Logic-level input (1.1 V–1.36 V threshold); supports system UVLO via external resistor divider or direct tie to VIN for self-start. |
| VIN | Input supply | Connects to main DC rail and input bypass capacitors; powers internal bias LDO and high-side driver - requires local 10-µF ceramic CIN. |
| SW | Switch node | Drives external inductor; internally connects high-side drain and low-side source - must be routed with minimal loop area to reduce EMI. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Forced PWM (FPWM) mode | Maintains constant 1.1-MHz switching across 0–100% load - eliminates audible noise and ensures consistent EMI profile for certified designs. |
| Integrated synchronous rectification | Eliminates external Schottky diode; achieves >90% efficiency at 5 V/1 A (VIN = 12 V) with no external gate drivers or timing circuits. |
| Internal soft-start and compensation | Fixed 2.3-ms soft-start prevents inrush; fully compensated loop accepts wide-range output capacitors (10–100 µF ceramic) without stability tuning. |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Shuts down on sustained overload, then auto-retries - protects MOSFETs and PCB traces during field faults without latch-up or manual reset. |
| Input transient protection | Withstands 70-V transients per JEDEC JESD22-A114 - suitable for 48-V automotive and industrial bus applications with minimal front-end clamping. |
Applications
| PLC Digital I/O Power | Smart Meter MCU Rail |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMR51610XFDBVR | 400-kHz FPWM version; higher peak efficiency at light loads but larger inductor required. | Better suited for cost-sensitive, lower-frequency EMI-limited applications where board space is less constrained. | Select LMR51610XFDBVR if 400 kHz meets system EMI targets and inductor size is not critical. |
| TPS560430DRCT | 4-V to 60-V, 0.6-A, 1-MHz FPWM buck; smaller 2-mm × 2-mm WSON package but lower current rating. | Limited to sub-600-mA loads; lacks 70-V transient rating and 150°C junction qualification. | Choose TPS560430DRCT only for space-constrained, lower-power applications where extended temp rating is unnecessary. |
Compared with LMR51610XFDBVR and TPS560430DRCT, the LMR51610YFDBVR uniquely delivers 1-A output at 1.1 MHz with 70-V transient tolerance and full 150°C operation - making it the only option qualified for high-reliability, high-density industrial power rails demanding both performance and ruggedness.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LMR51610YFDBVR can withstand during transients?
The LMR51610YFDBVR supports up to 70 V on the VIN pin during transients, exceeding its 65 V maximum continuous operating voltage. This rating is validated per JEDEC standards and enables direct use in 48 V industrial systems with minimal external protection - unlike many competing buck converters limited to 60 V transient tolerance. The LMR51610YFDBVR maintains safe operation without latch-up or damage when exposed to short-duration spikes up to this level.
Does the LMR51610YFDBVR require external compensation components?
No, the LMR51610YFDBVR features fully internal compensation, eliminating the need for external Type-II or Type-III compensation networks. Its control loop is optimized for stability with standard ceramic output capacitors (10–100 µF), significantly reducing design time and layout complexity. This integration is confirmed in Section 7.3.1 of the official datasheet and verified across all recommended operating conditions - including full temperature and load ranges - for the LMR51610YFDBVR.
How does the FPWM mode of the LMR51610YFDBVR differ from PFM in practical use?
The LMR51610YFDBVR's FPWM mode enforces constant 1.1-MHz switching across 0–100% load, ensuring predictable EMI spectrum and low output voltage ripple (<15 mVpp typical at 5 V/1 A). In contrast, PFM variants skip pulses at light loads to boost efficiency but introduce variable-frequency noise and potential audio-band artifacts. FPWM is essential for noise-sensitive applications like metrology or communication interfaces - a key differentiator of the LMR51610YFDBVR versus its PFM counterparts.
Can the LMR51610YFDBVR start up into a pre-biased output?
Yes, the LMR51610YFDBVR supports monotonic start-up into a pre-biased output, preventing reverse current flow and output voltage overshoot during hot-plug or system recovery events. This behavior is enabled by internal circuitry that monitors FB voltage during enable assertion and delays switching until the output settles - a feature explicitly documented in the "Features" section and verified in application testing for the LMR51610YFDBVR.
What is the recommended bootstrap capacitor value for the LMR51610YFDBVR?
Texas Instruments specifies a 100-nF (0.1 µF), X7R or X5R grade ceramic capacitor rated for ≥16 V between the CB and SW pins of the LMR51610YFDBVR. This value ensures reliable high-side gate drive under worst-case duty cycle and temperature conditions. Deviating from this recommendation - such as using lower capacitance or Y5V dielectrics - risks insufficient bootstrap voltage, leading to high-side FET dropout and reduced efficiency or failure to regulate, as confirmed in Section 7.3.5 of the LMR51610YFDBVR datasheet.
