Product details
Overview
TLD5098ELXUMA1 from Infineon is a multitopology DC/DC controller IC designed for LED driver applications in automotive environments. It supports boost, buck, buck-boost, SEPIC, and flyback topologies with fixed-current or fixed-voltage regulation, operates from 4.5 V to 45 V input, features 100–500 kHz adjustable switching frequency, and integrates analog/PWM dimming, open-circuit/short-to-GND/overvoltage/overtemperature protection.
For engineers reviewing the TLD5098ELXUMA1 datasheet, TLD5098ELXUMA1 pinout, TLD5098ELXUMA1 application, or TLD5098ELXUMA1 equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual dimming interface (PWMI + SET), low-side n-channel MOSFET gate drive capability, integrated 5 V LDO for biasing, current-mode control stability, and AEC-Q100 qualification for harsh automotive use cases.
Technical Context
The TLD5098ELXUMA1 implements current-mode control with slope compensation and leading-edge blanking to ensure stable regulation across wide duty cycles and input ranges. Its internal 5 V LDO powers the gate driver and logic, while the SWCS pin senses switch current via a 300 mV threshold for peak-current limiting.
It features dual feedback paths: FBH/FBL for output voltage/current regulation and OVFB for overvoltage protection using an external resistive divider. The FREQ/SYNC pin enables either resistor-set oscillator operation or synchronization to an external clock within 100–500 kHz capture range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 45 V - supports full automotive battery range including cold-crank and load-dump conditions. |
| Switching Frequency | 100 kHz to 500 kHz - adjustable via external resistor or synchronizable to external clock for EMI reduction. |
| Gate Driver Peak Current | 380 mA sourcing / 550 mA sinking - drives low-side n-channel MOSFETs with fast turn-on/turn-off in high-current LED applications. |
| Current Sense Threshold | 300 mV - enables precise peak-current mode control with minimal power loss in sense resistor. |
| Shutdown Current | < 10 µA - ensures ultra-low quiescent power during system sleep modes. |
| Operating Junction Temp | −40 °C to +150 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood automotive deployment. |
| Protection Functions | Open-circuit, short-to-GND, overvoltage, overtemperature - autonomous fault detection with latch or auto-retry behavior per configuration. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-SSOP-14 (RoHS-compliant, thermally enhanced with exposed pad for PCB heat spreading).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 IVCC | Internal LDO output | Supplies 5 V bias for internal logic and gate driver; requires local bypass capacitor. |
| 2 SWO | Switch gate driver output | Drives gate of external low-side n-channel MOSFET; peak current up to 550 mA sink. |
| 3 SGND | Current-sense ground reference | Separate ground return for accurate SWCS measurement, minimizing noise coupling. |
| 4 SWCS | Switch current sense input | Detects MOSFET source current via external shunt; triggers current-limit at 300 mV. |
| 5 PWMO | PWM dimming output | Drives external MOSFET for LED string disconnection or PWM-level control. |
| 6 FBH / 7 FBL | Voltage feedback differential inputs | Set output regulation point (current or voltage) via external resistor network; ±61 V differential rating. |
| 8 COMP | Compensation node | Connects external RC network to stabilize error amplifier loop; determines phase margin and transient response. |
| 9 OVFB | Overvoltage protection input | Monitors output via resistive divider; trips protection when voltage exceeds programmed threshold. |
| 10 SET | Analog dimming control | Sets LED current level via analog voltage (0–IVCC); must be tied to IVCC if unused. |
| 11 FREQ/SYNC | Frequency select or sync input | Resistor-to-GND sets oscillator frequency; external clock signal enables synchronization for multi-phase systems. |
| 12 GND | Power ground | Main system ground connection; separate from SGND to avoid sensing errors. |
| 13 EN/PWMI | Enable or PWM input | Logic HIGH enables IC; PWM signal applied here provides primary LED brightness control. |
| 14 IN | Main supply input | Accepts 4.5–45 V input; powers internal LDO and supplies energy to switching stage. |
| EP | Exposed thermal pad | Must connect to inner-layer GND plane via thermal vias for reliable thermal dissipation in automotive ambient. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Multitopology support (Boost/Buck/Buck-Boost/SEPIC/Flyback) | Configurable via external passive components-no firmware or topology-specific IC variants required. |
| Integrated soft-start | Prevents inrush current and output voltage overshoot during power-up, reducing stress on LEDs and passives. |
| Dual dimming interface (analog SET + PWM EN/PWMI) | Enables hybrid dimming schemes: fine-grained analog adjustment plus high-contrast PWM for dynamic range extension. |
| Diagnostic outputs (PWMO, EN_INT/PWM_INT) | Provides real-time fault signaling (e.g., open-load, overtemp) to microcontroller for system-level safety response. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified Grade 1 | Validated for −40 °C to +125 °C ambient operation with extended life testing-meets automotive reliability standards. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED driver controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM3410XMY/NOPB (TI) | Single-topology (boost-only); no integrated LDO; requires external gate driver; lacks diagnostic outputs. | Limited to boost LED drivers without fault reporting; unsuitable for AEC-Q100-compliant automotive designs. | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive boost LED applications where diagnostics and multitopology flexibility are unnecessary. |
| MAX20050ATP/V+ (Maxim) | Fixed-frequency 2.2 MHz operation; integrated high-side switch; no analog dimming (SET pin); smaller 10-pin TDFN package. | Better suited for space-constrained interior lighting; lacks flexibility for buck/flyback configurations and thermal robustness for under-hood use. | Prefer for compact, high-frequency interior modules where board area is critical and topology is fixed to buck. |
Compared with LM3410XMY/NOPB and MAX20050ATP/V+, the TLD5098ELXUMA1 uniquely combines AEC-Q100 qualification, five configurable topologies, dual dimming interfaces, and comprehensive diagnostics-making it the only option qualified for safety-critical exterior automotive lighting with system-level fault handling.

FAQ
What is the maximum duty cycle supported in fixed-frequency mode?
The TLD5098ELXUMA1 supports up to 95% maximum duty cycle in fixed-frequency operation, enabling high step-up ratios in boost configurations-critical for driving high-Vf LED strings from low-input automotive batteries. This value is confirmed in datasheet Table 1 under Dmax,fixed, and remains stable across temperature due to current-mode control with slope compensation.
Can the TLD5098ELXUMA1 drive a high-side MOSFET directly?
No-the TLD5098ELXUMA1 integrates a low-side n-channel MOSFET gate driver (SWO pin) and is not designed for direct high-side drive. It requires external bootstrap or isolated gate driver circuitry for high-side configurations. The datasheet explicitly specifies "drives low-side external n-channel switching MOSFET" and provides no high-side gate drive capability or floating supply rail.
How does the OVFB pin function during overvoltage events?
The OVFB pin monitors output voltage via an external resistive divider; when the divided voltage exceeds the internal 1.25 V threshold, the IC disables switching and asserts fault status via EN_INT/PWM_INT. Recovery depends on configuration-latch-off or auto-restart-and is independent of FBH/FBL regulation loop, ensuring fail-safe protection even during feedback loop faults.
Is the SET pin required to be biased when analog dimming is disabled?
Yes-the datasheet states that the SET pin "must not be left open" and specifies connecting it to IVCC if analog dimming is unused. Leaving it floating risks undefined current regulation behavior and potential instability, as the internal analog dimming amplifier input is uncontrolled. This requirement is documented in Section 3.2 Pin Definitions and Function, Table 2.
