Product details
Overview
LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive synchronous buck converter delivering up to 3.5 A at adjustable output (1 V to 20 V), operating from 3.5 V to 36 V input with 400-kHz fixed switching frequency and spread-spectrum modulation. It integrates high-side/low-side MOSFETs, internal compensation, soft-start, thermal shutdown, and a filtered open-drain RESET output - deployed in driver monitoring ECUs and surround-view systems requiring robust, low-EMI 5-V or 3.3-V rail generation.
For engineers reviewing the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 datasheet, LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 pinout, LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 application, or LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.5-A continuous output capability, ±1.5% reference tolerance, 18-µA quiescent current at 3.3 VOUT, 0.35-V dropout at 3.5 A, and AEC-Q100 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
The LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 employs peak-current-mode control with integrated gate drivers and flip-chip VQFN packaging to minimize parasitic inductance and switch-node ringing. Its frequency foldback architecture enables regulation down to 3.5-V input while maintaining 400-kHz operation across 3.9–36-V input range.
It features automatic light-load PFM/PWM transition, pin-selectable forced PWM mode via FPWM input, and a dedicated BIAS pin supporting extended output voltage range (up to 20 V) when externally powered or grounded. The RESET output includes 24-µs glitch filtering and 3-ms release timer, eliminating need for external supervisory ICs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 3.5 A continuous - supports compact power stages for mid-power automotive ECUs without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5 V to 36 V - accommodates cold-crank (≥3.5 V) and load-dump (≤42 V transient) conditions per ISO 7637-2. |
| Switching Frequency | 400 kHz ±10% - enables use of small 2.2-µH inductors and reduces EMI filter size in space-constrained modules. |
| Quiescent Current | 18 µA at 3.3 VOUT, no load - extends battery runtime in always-on vehicle subsystems (e.g., driver monitoring). |
| Reference Tolerance | ±1.5% over –40°C to +125°C ambient - ensures stable 3.3-V/5-V rail accuracy across full automotive temperature range. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.35 V at 3.5 A, 25°C - maintains regulation during low-input transients (e.g., engine start) without sacrificing efficiency. |
| RESET Delay | 3 ms release time with internal filtering - provides clean, bounce-free system reset signaling after power-up or fault recovery. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SON (RNL), 22-pin VQFN, 4.00 mm × 5.00 mm body size, non-wettable flanks - optimized for automated optical inspection (AOI) and thermal performance on 4-layer PCBs (RθJA = 29.4°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VCC | Internal LDO output | Supplies internal control circuitry; requires 4.7-µF capacitor to AGND for stability. |
| 2 CBOOT | Bootstrap capacitor node | Drives high-side MOSFET gate; connects to SW via 470-nF ceramic capacitor. |
| 3 SYNC | Frequency synchronization input | Accepts 250–500-kHz external clock (rising-edge triggered); enables system-level timing coordination. |
| 4,14 PVIN1/PVIN2 | Main power inputs | Parallel input paths for low-impedance VIN routing; must be shorted together on PCB. |
| 5,10 PGND1/PGND2 | Power ground terminals | Low-inductance return for internal MOSFETs; tied directly to AGND and system ground. |
| 9 SW | Switch node | Connects to power inductor; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout and minimal trace length. |
| 15 AVIN | Analog supply input | Bias source for analog circuits; connected to PVIN on PCB for noise isolation. |
| 16 FPWM | Mode control input | High = forced PWM (no PFM), low = automatic light-load mode; must not float. |
| 18 EN | Enable input | Active-high logic control; internal hysteresis (0.5 V) prevents chatter during slow-rising VIN. |
| 19 RESET | Open-drain reset flag | Asserts low on fault or EN deactivation; requires external pull-up; 3-ms release ensures clean boot sequencing. |
| 20 AGND | Analog ground reference | Star-ground point for FB, BIAS, and internal references; isolated from PGND except at single PCB tie-point. |
| 21 FB | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider for adjustable output; 1-V reference enables 1–20-V range with ±1.5% accuracy. |
| 22 BIAS | Auxiliary bias regulator input | Extends output range to 20 V when grounded or supplied externally; limits max BIAS voltage to 16 V. |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 can withstand during transients?
The LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 supports 42-V transient tolerance on VIN pins for ≤500 ms at ≤0.01% duty cycle, meeting ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a requirements for automotive load-dump protection without external TVS diodes - simplifying front-end protection design in ECU power supplies.
Does the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 require external compensation components?
No, the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 features built-in compensation, eliminating the need for external RC networks. This reduces design complexity, saves PCB area, and ensures stable operation across all supported output voltages (3.3 V, 5 V, or adjustable 1–20 V) with standard 2.2-µH inductors and 22-µF output capacitors.
How does the spread-spectrum feature of the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 improve EMI performance?
The LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 applies ±3% frequency dithering around its 400-kHz center frequency, spreading energy across a wider bandwidth and reducing peak conducted and radiated emissions by >10 dB - enabling easier CISPR 25 Class 5 compliance without additional EMI filters or shielding in automotive modules.
Can the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 operate with an input voltage below 3.9 V?
Yes - the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 supports minimum input of 3.5 V after startup (verified at 3.5-A load), enabling reliable operation during cold-crank conditions. Startup requires ≥3.9 V, but once running, it sustains regulation down to 3.5 V, critical for engine-start scenarios in driver monitoring and surround-view systems.
What is the function of the BIAS pin on the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1?
The BIAS pin on the LMS3635MQURNLRQ1 powers an auxiliary regulator that extends the adjustable output range to 20 V. When the output exceeds 15 V, BIAS must be grounded or supplied externally (≤16 V); this pin enables high-voltage rails for sensors or actuators while maintaining regulation accuracy and thermal safety.
