Product details
Overview
LV5841M-TLM-H from SANYO Semiconductor is a Bi-CMOS step-down switching regulator IC with integrated high-side MOSFET (60 mΩ RDS(on)), supporting 4.5 A output current, 5–18 V input range, and 0.85–0.8×VIN adjustable output voltage; used in industrial power supplies and embedded DC/DC conversion stages.
For engineers reviewing the LV5841M-TLM-H datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include verified current-mode control architecture, thermal shutdown at 160°C, foldback overcurrent protection, soft-start time of 3.5 ms, and MFP8 package compatibility with standard 225-mil footprint layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements fixed-frequency current-mode control with oscillator frequency tunable from 350 kHz to 600 kHz, enabling stable loop response and simplified external compensation via the COMP pin. The internal 0.835 V reference and FB pin enable precise output regulation across line and load variations.
It integrates undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with startup threshold at 4.9 V and shutdown at 4.3 V, plus EN pin logic control (ON ≥2 V, OFF ≤0.6 V). Thermal shutdown activates at 160°C with 50°C hysteresis, and foldback current limiting reduces switching frequency under overload to limit inductor RMS current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5–18 V - supports 12 V nominal bus rails and wide industrial input transients |
| Max Output Current | 4.5 A - sustained delivery with integrated 60 mΩ high-side switch and thermal design margin |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 0.835 V ±12 mV - sets output accuracy and enables resistor-divider-based VOUT programming |
| Switching Frequency | 350–600 kHz - balances EMI, inductor size, and efficiency for compact designs |
| Soft Start Time | 3.5 ms typical - prevents inrush current and stabilizes startup without external circuitry |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | 160°C with 50°C hysteresis - protects die during sustained overload or poor heatsinking |
| UVLO Thresholds | Start: 4.9 V, Stop: 4.3 V - ensures clean power sequencing on 5 V or 12 V inputs |
Pinout & Package
Package: MFP8 (225 mil), 8-pin molded flat package without exposed thermal pad; footprint compatible with JEDEC MS-012AC variant; 1.7 mm max height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NC | No connection - must remain unconnected per datasheet; no internal bond or function |
| 2 | VIN | Main power input - connects to bulk input capacitor; UVLO sensing and internal bias generation source |
| 3 | AGND | Analog ground reference - common return for FB, COMP, and internal error amplifier; separate from power ground path |
| 4 | FB | Error amplifier inverting input - senses divided output voltage; regulates VOUT = 0.835 V × (1 + R1/R2) |
| 5 | COMP | Loop compensation node - connects external RC network to stabilize current-mode control loop |
| 6 | EN | Enable control input - TTL-compatible; ≥2 V enables operation, ≤0.6 V forces shutdown |
| 7, 8 | SW | Switch node - connects directly to inductor; carries full switching current and high dv/dt; requires tight layout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated High-Side MOSFET | RDS(on) = 60 mΩ @ VIN = 12 V - eliminates external FET, reduces BOM count and layout complexity |
| Current-Mode Control | Single-loop stability with inherent cycle-by-cycle current limiting - simplifies compensation and improves transient response |
| Foldback Overcurrent Protection | Reduces switching frequency under overload - limits peak inductor current and average power dissipation |
| Internal 0.835 V Reference | ±12 mV tolerance over temperature - enables accurate, resistor-programmable output voltages from 0.85 V upward |
| Thermal Shutdown with Hysteresis | 160°C trip / 110°C recovery - prevents latch-up and allows safe auto-recovery after cooling |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP2315DJ-LF-Z | 4.5 A, 5–36 V input, 500 kHz fixed freq, 110 mΩ HS-FET, no foldback OCP | Wider VIN range but higher RDS(on); lacks foldback, uses hiccup OCP instead | Prefer when input exceeds 18 V; avoid if foldback current limiting is required for inductor safety |
| TPS54560BQDDARQ1 | 5.5 A, 3.5–60 V input, 100–2500 kHz adjustable freq, 72 mΩ HS-FET, thermal foldback | Higher voltage rating and adjustable frequency; automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualified | Choose for automotive qualification or >18 V input; LV5841M-TLM-H remains optimal for cost-sensitive industrial 12 V systems |
Compared with MP2315DJ-LF-Z and TPS54560BQDDARQ1, LV5841M-TLM-H offers lower RDS(on), built-in foldback OCP, and tighter reference tolerance (±12 mV), making it preferable for thermally constrained 12 V applications where inductor current limiting and output accuracy are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current supported by LV5841M-TLM-H?
The LV5841M-TLM-H supports a maximum continuous output current of 4.5 A under recommended operating conditions (TA = 25°C, specified PCB, VIN = 12 V). This rating assumes proper thermal management using the MFP8 package on a 31.0 mm × 34.0 mm × 1.7 mm glass-epoxy board. Derating applies above 85°C ambient or with reduced copper area.
Does LV5841M-TLM-H require an external MOSFET for operation?
No, LV5841M-TLM-H does not require an external MOSFET. It integrates a high-side N-channel MOSFET with 60 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VIN = 12 V. The SW pins (7 and 8) connect directly to the inductor, completing the buck topology with only external inductor, input/output capacitors, and feedback resistors needed.
What is the purpose of the NC pin (Pin 1) on LV5841M-TLM-H?
Pin 1 of LV5841M-TLM-H is designated NC (No Connection) and must remain unconnected. It has no internal bond wire or circuit function. Leaving it floating is required per the datasheet; soldering or routing to ground or any other net may cause unpredictable behavior or violate electrical specifications.
How does the foldback overcurrent protection work in LV5841M-TLM-H?
In LV5841M-TLM-H, foldback overcurrent protection reduces the switching frequency during overload, lowering average inductor current and power dissipation. Unlike hiccup or latch-off modes, this method maintains regulation attempt while limiting thermal stress. The foldback initiates when sensed current exceeds the limiter threshold (5.0 A at VIN = 5 V, 5.5 A at VIN = 12 V).
Can LV5841M-TLM-H be used with input voltages below 5 V?
No, LV5841M-TLM-H cannot operate reliably below 5 V input. Its absolute minimum recommended input voltage is 5 V, and UVLO disables operation when VIN drops to 4.3 V or less. Attempting to operate below 5 V violates the Recommended Operating Conditions and risks unstable regulation, premature shutdown, or undefined behavior in the internal Bi-CMOS circuitry.
