3 Description

The LM686x5-Q1 are a family of automotive buck

converters designed for high efficiency, high power

density, and ultra-low electromagnetic interference

(EMI). The converters operate over a wide input

voltage range of 3V to 70V (75V tolerant) reducing

the need for external input surge protection. The

LM686x5-Q1 comes with pin selectable fixed output

voltages of 3.3V and 5V or in adjustable configuration.

The low EMI operation is enabled with minimized loop

inductance and optimized switch node slew rate. The

current-mode control architecture with a 30ns typical

minimum on-time allows high conversion ratios at high

frequencies coupled with a fast transient response

and excellent load and line regulation.

The LM686x5-Q1 buck converters are specifically

intended for functional safety relevant applications.

An array of safety features including ABIST at startup,

redundant and fast VOUT monitoring, feedback

path failure detection, redundant temperature sensor,

thermal shutdown, and current limiting significantly

reduce the residual failure-in-time (FIT).
