8 Detailed Description  
8.1 Overview  
The LMR51420 is an easy-to-use synchronous step-down DC-DC converter operating from a 4.5-V to 32-V  
supply voltage. At production, the maximum VIN to GND specification is expected to be 36 V. It is capable of  
delivering up to 2-A DC load current in a very small solution size. The family has multiple versions applicable to  
various applications. See Section 5 for detailed information.  
The LMR51420 employs fixed-frequency peak-current mode control. The PFM version enters PFM mode at light  
load to achieve high efficiency. A FPWM version is provided to achieve low output voltage ripple, tight output  
voltage regulation, and constant switching frequency at light load. The device is internally compensated, which  
reduces design time and requires few external components.  
Additional features such as precision enable and internal soft start provide a flexible and easy-to-use solution for  
a wide range of applications. Protection features include the following:  
Thermal shutdown  
VIN undervoltage lockout  
Cycle-by-cycle current limit  
Hiccup mode short-circuit protection  
This family of devices requires very few external components and has a pinout designed for simple, optimal PCB  
layout.

8.3 Feature Description  
8.3.1 Fixed Frequency Peak Current Mode Control  
The following operating description of the LMR51420 refers to Section 8.2 and to the waveforms in Figure 8-1.  
The LMR51420 is a step-down synchronous buck converter with integrated high-side (HS) and low-side (LS)  
switches (synchronous rectifier). The LMR51420 supplies a regulated output voltage by turning on the high-side  
and low-side NMOS switches with controlled duty cycle. During the high-side switch on time, the SW pin voltage  
swings up to approximately VIN, and the inductor current, iL, increases with a linear slope of (VIN – VOUT) / L.  
When the high-side switch is turned off by the control logic, the low-side switch is turned on after an anti-shoot–  
through dead time. Inductor current discharges through the low-side switch with a slope of –VOUT / L. The control  
parameter of a buck converter is defined as Duty Cycle D = tON / TSW, where tON is the high-side switch on time  
and TSW is the switching period. The converter control loop maintains a constant output voltage by adjusting the  
duty cycle D. In an ideal buck converter, where losses are ignored, and D is proportional to the output voltage  
and inversely proportional to the input voltage: D = VOUT / VIN.

Figure 8-1. SW Node and Inductor Current Waveforms in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM)  
The LMR51420 employs fixed-frequency peak-current mode control. A voltage feedback loop is used to get  
accurate DC voltage regulation by adjusting the peak-current command based on voltage offset. The peak  
inductor current is sensed from the high-side switch and compared to the peak current threshold to control the  
on time of the high-side switch. The voltage feedback loop is internally compensated, which allows for fewer  
external components, making designing easy and providing stable operation when using a variety of output  
capacitors. The converter operates with fixed switching frequency at normal load conditions. During light-load  
condition, the LMR51420 operates in PFM mode to maintain high efficiency (PFM version) or in FPWM mode for  
low output voltage ripple, tight output voltage regulation, and constant switching frequency (FPWM version).  
8.3.2 Adjustable Output Voltage  
A precision 0.6-V reference voltage (VREF) is used to maintain a tightly regulated output voltage over the entire  
operating temperature range. The output voltage is set by a resistor divider from VOUT to the FB pin. It is  
recommended to use 1% tolerance resistors with a low temperature coefficient for the FB divider. Select the  
bottom-side resistor, RFBB, for the desired divider current and use Equation 1 to calculate the top-side resistor,  
RFBT. The recommend range for RFBT is 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ. A lower RFBT value can be used if pre-loading is  
desired to reduce VOUT offset in PFM operation. Lower RFBT reduces efficiency at very light load. Less static  
current goes through a larger RFBT and can be more desirable when light-load efficiency is critical. However,  
RFBT larger than 1 MΩ is not recommended because it makes the feedback path more susceptible to noise.  
Larger RFBT values require a more carefully designed feedback path trace from the feedback resistors to the  
feedback pin of the device. The tolerance and temperature variation of the resistor divider network affect the  
output voltage regulation.

8.3.3 Enable  
The voltage on the EN pin controls the ON/OFF operation of the LMR51420. A voltage of less than 0.95 V shuts  
down the device, while a voltage of greater than 1.36 V is required to start the converter. The EN pin is an input  
and cannot be left open or floating. The simplest way to enable the operation of the LMR51420 is to connect EN  
to VIN. This allows self-start–up of the LMR51420 when VIN is within the operating range.  
Many applications benefit from the employment of an enable divider RENT and RENB (Figure 8-3) to establish  
a precision system UVLO level for the converter. System UVLO can be used for supplies operating from  
utility power as well as battery power. It can be used for sequencing, ensuring reliable operation, or supplying  
protection, such as a battery discharge level. An external logic signal can also be used to drive EN input for  
system sequencing and protection.  
Note  
The EN pin voltage must not to be greater than VIN + 0.3 V. It is not recommended to apply EN  
voltage when VIN is 0 V.

8.3.4 Minimum On Time, Minimum Off Time, and Frequency Foldback  
Minimum on time (TON_MIN) is the shortest duration of time that the high-side switch can be turned on. TON_MIN  
is typically 60 ns for the LMR51420. Minimum off time (TOFF_MIN) is the shortest duration of time that the  
high-side switch can be off. TOFF_MIN is typically 100 ns. In CCM operation, TON_MIN and TOFF_MIN limit the  
voltage conversion range without switching frequency foldback.  
The minimum duty cycle without frequency foldback allowed is:  
DMIN = TON_MIN × fSW

(3)  
The maximum duty cycle without frequency foldback allowed is:  
DMAX = 1 - TOFF_MIN × fSW  
Given a required output voltage, the maximum VIN without frequency foldback can be found by:  
VOUT  
VIN_MAX  
=
fSW × TON_MIN  
(4)  
(5)  
The minimum VIN without frequency foldback can be calculated by:  
VOUT  
VIN_MIN  
=
1- fSW × TOFF_MIN  
In the LMR51420, a frequency foldback scheme is employed once TON_MIN or TOFF_MIN is triggered, which can  
extend the maximum duty cycle or lower the minimum duty cycle.  
The on-time decreases while VIN voltage increases. Once the on time decreases to TON_MIN, the switching  
frequency starts to decrease while VIN continues to increase, which lowers the duty cycle further to keep VOUT in  
regulation according to Equation 2.  
The frequency foldback scheme also works once larger duty cycle is needed under low VIN condition. The  
frequency decreases once the device reaches TOFF_MIN, which extends the maximum duty cycle according to  
Equation 3. In such condition, the frequency can be as low as approximately 133 kHz. A wide range of frequency  
foldback allows for the LMR51420 output voltage to stay in regulation with a much lower supply voltage VIN,  
which leads to a lower effective dropout.  
With frequency foldback while maintaining a regulated output voltage, VIN_MAX is raised, and VIN_MIN is lowered  
by decreased fSW  
.
8.3.5 Bootstrap Voltage  
The LMR51420 provides an integrated bootstrap voltage converter. A small capacitor between the CB and SW  
pins provides the gate drive voltage for the high-side MOSFET. The bootstrap capacitor is refreshed when the  
high-side MOSFET is off and the low-side switch is on. The recommended value of the bootstrap capacitor  
is 0.1 µF. A ceramic capacitor with an X7R or X5R grade dielectric with a voltage rating of 16 V or higher is  
recommended for stable performance over temperature and voltage.  
8.3.6 Overcurrent and Short Circuit Protection  
The LMR51420 incorporates both peak and valley inductor current limit to provide protection to the device from  
overloads and short circuits and limit the maximum output current. Valley current limit prevents inductor current  
runaway during short circuits on the output, while both peak and valley limits work together to limit the maximum  
output current of the converter. Cycle-by-cycle current limit is used for overloads, while hiccup mode is used for  
sustained short circuits.  
High-side MOSFET overcurrent protection is implemented by the nature of the peak current mode control. The  
high-side switch current is sensed when the high-side is turned on after a set blanking time. The high-side switch  
current is compared to the output of the Error Amplifier (EA) minus slope compensation every switching cycle.

See Section 8.2 for more details. The peak current of high-side switch is limited by a clamped maximum peak  
current threshold, Isc (see the Electrical Characteristics), which is constant.  
The current going through the low-side MOSFET is also sensed and monitored. When the low-side switch turns  
on, the inductor current begins to ramp down. The low-side switch is not turned OFF at the end of a switching  
cycle if its current is above the low-side current limit, ILS_LIMIT (see the Electrical Characteristics). The low-side  
switch is kept ON so that inductor current keeps ramping down until the inductor current ramps below ILS_LIMIT  
.
Then, the low-side switch is turned OFF and the high-side switch is turned on after a dead time. After ILS_LIMIT is  
achieved, peak and valley current limit controls the max current deliver and it can be calculated using Equation  
6.  
ILS_LIMIT +ISC  
IOUT  
=
max  
2
(6)  
If the feedback voltage is lower than 40% of VREF, the current of the low-side switch triggers ILS_LIMIT for 256  
consecutive cycles and hiccup current protection mode is activated. In hiccup mode, the converter shuts down  
and keeps off for a period of hiccup, THICCUP (135 ms typical), before the LMR51420 tries to start again. If an  
overcurrent or short-circuit fault condition still exist, hiccup repeats until the fault condition is removed. Hiccup  
mode reduces power dissipation under severe overcurrent conditions, preventing overheating and potential  
damage to the device.  
For FPWM version, the inductor current is allowed to go negative. When this current exceeds the low-side  
negative current limit, ILS_NEG, the low-side switch is turned off and high-side switch is turned on immediately.  
This is used to protect the low-side switch from excessive negative current.  
8.3.7 Soft Start  
The integrated soft-start circuit prevents input inrush current impacting the LMR51420 and the input power  
supply. Soft start is achieved by slowly ramping up the internal reference voltage when the device is first enabled  
or powered up. The typical soft-start time is 1.8 ms.  
The LMR51420 also employs overcurrent protection blanking time, TOCP_BLK (33 ms typical), at the beginning  
of power up. Without this feature, in applications with a large amount of output capacitors and high VOUT, the  
inrush current is large enough to trigger the current-limit protection, which can cause a false start as the device  
enters into hiccup mode. This results in a continuous recycling of soft start without raising up to the programmed  
output voltage. The LMR51420 is able to charge the output capacitor to the programmed VOUT by controlling the  
average inductor current during the start-up sequence in the blanking time, TOCP_BLK  
.
8.3.8 Thermal Shutdown  
The LMR51420 provides an internal thermal shutdown to protect the device when the junction temperature  
exceeds 163°C. Both high-side and low-side FETs stop switching in thermal shutdown. Once the die  
temperature falls below 141°C, the device reinitiates the power-up sequence controlled by the internal soft-start  
circuitry.

8.4 Device Functional Modes  
8.4.1 Shutdown Mode  
The EN pin provides electrical ON/OFF control for the LMR51420. When VEN is below 1.08 V, the device is in  
shutdown mode. The LMR51420 also employs VIN undervoltage lock out protection (UVLO). If VIN voltage is  
below its UVLO threshold of 3.58 V, the converter is turned off.  
8.4.2 Active Mode  
The LMR51420 is in active mode when both VEN and VIN are above their respective operating threshold. The  
simplest way to enable the LMR51420 is to connect the EN pin to VIN pin. This allows self-start–up when the  
input voltage is in the operating range of 4.5 V to 36 V. See Section 8.3.3 for details on setting these operating  
levels.  
In active mode, depending on the load current, the LMR51420 is in one of four modes:  
1. Continuous conduction mode (CCM) with fixed switching frequency when load current is greater than half of  
the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple (for both PFM and FPWM versions)  
2. Discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) with fixed switching frequency when load current is less than half of  
the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple(only for PFM version)  
3. Pulse frequency modulation mode (PFM) when switching frequency is decreased at very light load (only for  
PFM version)  
4. Forced pulse width modulation mode (FPWM) with fixed switching frequency even at light load (only for  
FPWM version)  
8.4.3 CCM Mode  
Continuous conduction mode (CCM) operation is employed in the LMR51420 when the load current is greater  
than half of the peak-to-peak inductor current. In CCM operation, the frequency of operation is fixed, output  
voltage ripple is at a minimum in this mode and the maximum output current of 3 A can be supplied by the  
LMR51420.  
8.4.4 Light-Load Operation (PFM Version)  
For PFM version, when the load current is lower than half of the peak-to-peak inductor current in CCM, the  
LMR51420 operates in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), also known as diode emulation mode (DEM). In  
DCM operation, the low-side switch is turned off when the inductor current drops to ILS_ZC (TBD mA typical) to  
improve efficiency. Both switching losses and conduction losses are reduced in DCM, compared to forced PWM  
operation at light load.  
During light-load operation, pulse frequency modulation (PFM) mode is activated to maintain high efficiency  
operation. When either the minimum high-side switch on time, tON_MIN, or the minimum peak inductor current,  
IPEAK_MIN (TBD typical), is reached, the switching frequency decreases to maintain regulation. In PFM mode,  
switching frequency is decreased by the control loop to maintain output voltage regulation when load current  
reduces. Switching loss is further reduced in PFM operation due to a significant drop in effective switching  
frequency.  
8.4.5 Light-Load Operation (FPWM Version)  
For FPWM version, the LMR51420 is locked in PWM mode at full load range. This operation is maintained,  
even in no-load condition, by allowing the inductor current to reverse its normal direction. This mode trades off  
reduced light load efficiency for low output voltage ripple, tight output voltage regulation, and constant switching  
frequency.

Get more information about WEBENCH tools at www.ti.com/WEBENCH.  
9.2.2.2 Output Voltage Set-Point  
The output voltage of the LMR51420 device is externally adjustable using a resistor divider network. The divider  
network is comprised of a top feedback resistor RFBT and bottom feedback resistor RFBB. Equation 7 is used to  
determine the output voltage of the converter:  
VOUT - VREF  
RFBT  
=
× RFBB  
VREF  
(7)  
Choose the value of RFBB to be 13.7 kΩ. With the desired output voltage set to 5 V and the VREF = 0.6 V, the  
RFBT value can then be calculated using Equation 7. The formula yields a value 100.4 kΩ. A standard value of  
100 kΩ is selected.  
9.2.2.3 Switching Frequency  
The higher switching frequency allows for lower-value inductors and smaller output capacitors, which result in  
a smaller solution size and lower component cost. However, higher switching frequency brings more switching  
loss, making the solution less efficient and produce more heat. The switching frequency is also limited by the  
minimum on time of the following as mentioned in Section 8.3.4:  
Integrated power switch  
Input voltage  
Output voltage  
Frequency shift limitation  
For this example, a switching frequency of 500 kHz is selected.

9.2.2.4 Inductor Selection  
The most critical parameters for the inductor are the inductance, saturation current, and the RMS current. The  
inductance is based on the desired peak-to-peak ripple current, ΔiL. Since the ripple current increases with  
the input voltage, the maximum input voltage is always used to calculate the minimum inductance, LMIN. Use  
Equation 9 to calculate the minimum value of the output inductor. KIND is a coefficient that represents the amount  
of inductor ripple current relative to the maximum output current of the device. A reasonable value of KIND must  
be 20% to 60% of maximum IOUT supported by the converter. During an instantaneous overcurrent operation  
event, the RMS and peak inductor current can be high. The inductor saturation current must be higher than peak  
current limit level.

In general, it is preferable to choose lower inductance in switching power supplies because it usually  
corresponds to faster transient response, smaller DCR, and reduced size for more compact designs. Too low  
of an inductance can generate too large of an inductor current ripple such that overcurrent protection at the  
full load can be falsely triggered. It also generates more inductor core loss since the current ripple is larger.  
Larger inductor current ripple also implies larger output voltage ripple with the same output capacitors. With peak  
current mode control, it is recommended to have adequate amount of inductor ripple current. A larger inductor  
ripple current improves the comparator signal-to-noise ratio.  
For this design example, choose KIND = 0.3. The minimum inductor value is calculated to be 9.7 µH. Choose the  
nearest standard 10-µH ferrite inductor with a capability of 3-A RMS current and 4-A saturation current.  
9.2.2.5 Output Capacitor Selection  
The device is designed to be used with a wide variety of LC filters. It is generally desired to minimize the output  
capacitance to keep cost and size down. The output capacitor or capacitors, COUT, must be chosen with care  
since it directly affects the steady state output voltage ripple, loop stability, and output voltage overshoot and  
undershoot during load current transient. The output voltage ripple is essentially composed of two parts. One  
part is caused by the inductor ripple current flowing through the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of the  
output capacitors:  
ûVOUT_ESR = ûiL × ESR = KIND ×IOUT × ESR  
(10)  
The other part is caused by the inductor current ripple charging and discharging the output capacitors:  
ûiL  
KIND ×IOUT  
ûVOUT_C  
=
=
8×fSW × COUT 8×fSW × COUT  
(11)  
The two components of the voltage ripple are not in-phase, therefore, the actual peak-to-peak ripple is less than  
the sum of the two peaks.  
Output capacitance is usually limited by transient performance specifications if the system requires tight voltage  
regulation with presence of large current steps and fast slew rates. When a large load step occurs, output  
capacitors provide the required charge before the inductor current can slew to an appropriate level. The control  
loop of the converter usually requires eight or more clock cycles to regulate the inductor current equal to the  
new load level during this time. The output capacitance must be large enough to supply the current difference  
for eight clock cycles to maintain the output voltage within the specified range. Equation 12 shows the minimum  
output capacitance needed for a specified VOUT overshoot and undershoot.

For this design example, the target output ripple is 30 mV. Assuming ΔVOUT_ESR = ΔVOUT_C = 30 mV, choose  
KIND = 0.3. Equation 10 yields ESR no larger than 75 mΩ and Equation 11 yields COUT no smaller than 12 µF.  
For the target overshoot and undershoot limitation of this design, ΔVOUT_SHOOT = 5% × VOUT = 250 mV. The  
COUT can be calculated to be no less than 32 µF by Equation 12. In summary, the most stringent criteria for the  
output capacitor is 44 µF. Considering derating, two 22-µF, 16-V, X7R ceramic capacitor with 5-mΩ ESR is used.

9.2.2.6 Input Capacitor Selection  
The LMR51420 device requires a high frequency input decoupling capacitor or capacitor. The typical  
recommended value for the high frequency decoupling capacitor is 2.2 µF or higher. A high-quality ceramic  
type X5R or X7R with a sufficient voltage rating is recommended. The voltage rating must be greater than  
the maximum input voltage. To compensate the derating of ceramic capacitors, a voltage rating of twice the  
maximum input voltage is recommended. For this design, one 2.2-µF, X7R dielectric capacitor rated for 50 V is  
used for the input decoupling capacitor. The equivalent series resistance (ESR) is approximately 10 mΩ, and the  
current rating is 1 A. Include a capacitor with a value of 0.1 µF for high-frequency filtering and place it as close  
as possible to the device pins.  
9.2.2.7 Bootstrap Capacitor  
Every LMR51420 design requires a bootstrap capacitor, CBOOT. The recommended bootstrap capacitor is 0.1  
µF and rated at 16 V or higher. The bootstrap capacitor is located between the SW pin and the CB pin.  
The bootstrap capacitor must be a high-quality ceramic type with X7R or X5R grade dielectric for temperature  
stability.  
9.2.2.8 Undervoltage Lockout Set-Point  
The system undervoltage lockout (UVLO) is adjusted using the external voltage divider network of RENT and  
RENB. The UVLO has two thresholds, one for power up when the input voltage is rising and one for power down  
or brown outs when the input voltage is falling. Equation 13 can be used to determine the VIN UVLO level.

The EN rising threshold (VENH) for the LMR51420 is set to be 1.23 V (typical). Choose a value of 200 kΩ for

can be calculated using Equation 14:

10 Power Supply Recommendations  
The LMR51420 is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 4.5 V and 36 V. This input  
supply must be well-regulated and able to withstand maximum input current and maintain a stable voltage. The  
resistance of the input supply rail must be low enough that an input current transient does not cause a high  
enough drop at the LMR51420 supply voltage that can cause a false UVLO fault triggering and system reset.  
If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the LMR51420 additional bulk capacitance can be  
required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. The amount of bulk capacitance is not critical, but a 10-µF  
or 22-µF electrolytic capacitor is a typical choice.

11 Layout  
11.1 Layout Guidelines  
Layout is a critical portion of good power supply design. The following guidelines will help users design a PCB  
with the best power conversion performance, thermal performance, and minimized generation of unwanted EMI.  
The input bypass capacitor CIN must be placed as close as possible to the VIN and GND pins. Grounding for  
both the input and output capacitors should consist of localized top-side planes that connect to the GND pin.  
Minimize trace length to the FB pin net. Both feedback resistors, RFBT and RFBB, must be located close to the  
FB pin. If VOUT accuracy at the load is important, make sure VOUT sense is made at the load. Route VOUT  
sense path away from noisy nodes and preferably through a layer on the other side of a shielded layer.  
Use ground plane in one of the middle layers as noise shielding and heat dissipation path if possible.  
Make VIN, VOUT, and ground bus connections as wide as possible. This reduces any voltage drops on the  
input or output paths of the converter and maximizes efficiency.  
Provide adequate device heat-sinking. GND, VIN, and SW pins provide the main heat dissipation path. Make  
the GND, VIN, and SW plane area as large as possible. Use an array of heat-sinking vias to connect the top  
side ground plane to the ground plane on the bottom PCB layer. If the PCB has multiple copper layers, these  
thermal vias can also be connected to inner layer heat-spreading ground planes. Ensure enough copper area  
is used for heat-sinking to keep the junction temperature below 125°C.  
11.1.1 Compact Layout for EMI Reduction  
Radiated EMI is generated by the high di/dt components in pulsing currents in switching converters. The larger  
area covered by the path of a pulsing current, the more EMI is generated. High frequency ceramic bypass  
capacitors at the input side provide a primary path for the high di/dt components of the pulsing current. Placing  
a ceramic bypass capacitor or capacitors as close as possible to the VIN and GND pins is the key to EMI  
reduction.  
The SW pin connected to the inductor must be as short as possible, and just wide enough to carry the load  
current without excessive heating. Short, thick traces or copper pours (shapes) must be used for high current  
conduction path to minimize parasitic resistance. The output capacitors must be placed close to the VOUT end of  
the inductor and closely grounded to the GND pin.  
11.1.2 Feedback Resistors  
To reduce noise sensitivity of the output voltage feedback path, it is important to place the resistor divider  
close to the FB pin, rather than close to the load. The FB pin is the input to the error amplifier, so it is a high  
impedance node and very sensitive to noise. Placing the resistor divider closer to the FB pin reduces the trace  
length of FB signal and reduces noise coupling. The output node is a low impedance node, so the trace from  
VOUT to the resistor divider can be long if short path is not available.  
If voltage accuracy at the load is important, make sure voltage sense is made at the load. Doing so corrects  
for voltage drops along the traces and provides the best output accuracy. The voltage sense trace from the  
load to the feedback resistor divider must be routed away from the SW node path and the inductor to avoid  
contaminating the feedback signal with switch noise, while also minimizing the trace length. This is most  
important when high value resistors are used to set the output voltage. It is recommended to route the voltage  
sense trace and place the resistor divider on a different layer than the inductor and SW node path, such that  
there is a ground plane in between the feedback trace and inductor/SW node polygon. This provides further  
shielding for the voltage feedback path from EMI noises.

12.6 Electrostatic Discharge Caution  
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled  
with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.  
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may  
be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published  
specifications.
