7.1 Overview

The LM27402 is a feature-rich, easy-to-use, single-phase, synchronous PWM DC/Dc step-down controller capable of providing an ultrahigh current output for demanding POL applications. An input voltage range of 3 V to 20 V is compatible with a wide range of intermediate bus system rails and battery chemistries, especially 3.3-V, 5-V, and 12-V inputs. The output voltage is adjustable from 0.6 V to as high as 95% of the input voltage, with better than ±1% feedback system regulation accuracy over the full junction temperature range. With an adjustable inductor DCR based current limit setpoint, ferrite and composite cored inductors with low DCR and small footprint can be specified to maximize efficiency and reduce power loss. High-current gate drivers with adaptive deadtime are used for the high-side and low-side power MOSFETs to provide further efficiency gains.

The LM27402 employs a voltage-mode control loop with input voltage feedforward to accurately regulate the output voltage over substantial load, line, and temperature ranges. The switching frequency is programmable between 200 kHz and 1.2 MHz through a resistor or an external synchronization signal. The LM27402 is available in thermally-enhanced WQFN-16 and HTSSOP-16 packages with 0.65-mm lead pitch. The device offers high levels of integration by including MOSFET gate drivers, a low dropout (LDO) bias supply regulator, and comprehensive fault protection features to enable highly flexible, reliable, energy-efficient, and high density regulator solutions. Multiple fault conditions are accommodated, including overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, and overtemperature.
