Product details
Overview
LMR61428XMM/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a step-up DC-DC switching regulator with integrated 0.17Ω N-channel MOSFET, supporting 1.2V–14V input and adjustable output up to 14V, delivering up to 2.85A peak switch current at up to 2MHz switching frequency, optimized for battery-powered LCD displays and LED biasing.
For engineers reviewing the LMR61428XMM/NOPB datasheet, LMR61428XMM/NOPB pinout, LMR61428XMM/NOPB application, or LMR61428XMM/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include minimum start-up voltage (1.1V), gated-oscillator efficiency profile, VSSOP-8 thermal performance, and bootstrapped VDD operation in low-profile portable systems.
Technical Context
The LMR61428XMM/NOPB employs a constant-duty-cycle gated oscillator topology with fixed 70% duty cycle, enabling ultra-low quiescent current (80µA operating, <2.5µA shutdown) and high efficiency across wide load ranges. Its hysteresis-based regulation uses a 30–45mV window at the FB pin to control burst-mode switching.
Internal protection includes cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting (2.85A typical), thermal shutdown (~160°C), and bootstrapped gate drive via BOOT pin. VDD must be supplied between 2.5V–5V, either from VOUT (for 2.5–5V outputs) or an external source, while SW pin tolerates up to 14.5V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 1.2V to 14V; starts reliably from 1.1V, operates down to 0.65V after startup - enables single-cell Li-ion or NiMH battery use. |
| Output Voltage Range | Adjustable 1.24V to 14V via resistor divider; limited by 70% max duty cycle (VOUT/VIN ≤ 3.3). |
| Switch Current Limit | 2.85A typical peak; protects against overload and short-circuit during transient conditions. |
| Switching Frequency | Programmable 300kHz–2MHz via FREQ-to-VDD resistor; supports compact 6.8µH shielded inductors. |
| Efficiency | 87% at VIN=3.6V, VOUT=5V, IOUT=0.5A; >80% across 0.04–0.54A load range for 3.3V output. |
| Quiescent Current | 80µA typical operating; <2.5µA shutdown - extends battery life in standby and display-off modes. |
| FB Reference Voltage | 1.24V ±3.5%; sets output accuracy and ripple sensitivity in hysteresis control loop. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP-8 package (DGK), 3.0 mm × 5.0 mm × 1.09 mm height, exposed thermal pad, RoHS-compliant tin (Sn) lead finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PGND (Pin 1) | Power Ground | High-current return path for MOSFET switch; must connect directly to power ground plane near IC. |
| EN (Pin 2) | Active-Low Enable | Pulled below 0.15×VDD to disable; pulls internal circuitry into sub-2.5µA shutdown state. |
| FREQ (Pin 3) | Frequency Set | Resistor to VDD programs switching frequency; determines inductor/capacitor size and EMI profile. |
| FB (Pin 4) | Voltage Feedback | Monitors resistive divider output; 1.24V reference triggers hysteresis-based gated-oscillator control. |
| SGND (Pin 5) | Signal Ground | Low-noise reference for FB, EN, FREQ; isolated from PGND to prevent feedback corruption. |
| VDD (Pin 6) | Bias Supply Input | 2.5–5V supply for internal logic; can be bootstrapped from VOUT (2.5–5V) or sourced externally. |
| BOOT (Pin 7) | Bootstrap Capacitor Node | Drives high-side gate of internal MOSFET; requires 10–22nF ceramic capacitor to SW and VDD. |
| SW (Pin 8) | Switch Node | Drain of internal N-MOSFET; connects to inductor and Schottky diode anode; swings from PGND to VOUT+0.4V. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-up regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61088RHLR | Higher 5.5A switch current, 2.5V–12V input, requires external compensation; 16-pin QFN vs VSSOP-8. | Supports higher output power (>10W); less suitable for space-constrained 1–2W LCD/LED apps. | Choose when >3A output or tighter output regulation (±1%) is required; accept larger layout and compensation effort. |
| MT3608EN | Lower cost, 2A switch current, fixed 1.2MHz, no FREQ adjust or thermal shutdown; SOT-23-6 package. | Limited to <1.5W continuous; lacks shutdown IQ spec and robust protection features. | Choose for cost-sensitive, non-critical consumer lighting where 2.85A headroom and 1.1V start-up are unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS61088RHLR and MT3608EN, the LMR61428XMM/NOPB uniquely balances ultra-low start-up voltage (1.1V), VSSOP-8 compactness, gated-oscillator efficiency at microamp loads, and integrated protection - making it optimal for battery-powered displays and LED systems under 3W.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for LMR61428XMM/NOPB to start regulation?
The LMR61428XMM/NOPB starts regulation from as low as 1.1V input (typical), enabling operation from nearly depleted single-cell batteries. Once started, it continues regulating down to 0.65V input by bootstrapping VDD from the output. This behavior is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under VIN_ST and VIN_OP parameters.
Can LMR61428XMM/NOPB generate a 12V output from a 3.3V input?
Yes, the LMR61428XMM/NOPB can generate 12V from 3.3V input, since VOUT/VIN = 12/3.3 ≈ 3.6, which exceeds the device's maximum boost ratio of ~3.3 (1/(1−0.7)). In practice, regulation will be lost at light loads; full 12V output requires ≥4.0V input. The datasheet specifies VOUT_MAX = 14V but constrains usable range by duty cycle limits.
How does the FREQ pin on LMR61428XMM/NOPB affect design?
The FREQ pin on LMR61428XMM/NOPB sets switching frequency from 300kHz to 2MHz using an external resistor to VDD. Higher frequencies allow smaller inductors (e.g., 2.2µH at 2MHz vs 6.8µH at 500kHz) and reduce output ripple frequency, but increase switching losses. The choice directly impacts solution size, EMI filtering, and thermal design.
Is an external Schottky diode required for LMR61428XMM/NOPB operation?
Yes, an external Schottky diode is mandatory - the LMR61428XMM/NOPB integrates only the N-channel MOSFET switch, not the catch diode. A fast-recovery Schottky (e.g., MBRS140T3) with reverse voltage rating > VOUT and forward current > IOUT is required. Omitting it causes catastrophic failure due to lack of current path during MOSFET off-time.
What is the role of the BOOT pin in LMR61428XMM/NOPB?
BOOT pin on LMR61428XMM/NOPB supplies the gate drive voltage for the internal N-MOSFET. It requires a 10–22nF ceramic capacitor between BOOT and SW pins to generate ~VOUT + 5V gate-source voltage. Incorrect BOOT capacitor placement or value causes weak turn-on, excessive conduction loss, and thermal shutdown - verified in the "BOOTSTRAPPING" section of the datasheet.
