3 Description

The LMR514x0 is a wide-VIN, easy-to-use

synchronous buck converter capable of driving up to

4-A or 5-A load current. With a wide input range of 4

V to 36 V, the device is suitable for a wide range of

industrial applications for power conditioning from an

unregulated source.

The LMR514x0 features adjustable switching

frequency from 200 kHz to 1.1 MHz with an external

resistor, which provides the flexibility to optimize either

efficiency or external component size. The device has

PFM version to realize high efficiency at light load and

FPWM version to achieve constant frequency, and

small output voltage ripple over the full load range.

Soft-start and compensation circuits are implemented

internally which allows the device to be used with

minimum external components.

The device has built-in protection features, such as

cycle-by-cycle current limit, hiccup mode short-circuit

protection, and thermal shutdown in case of excessive

power dissipation. The LMR514x0 is available in

WSON-12 package.
