8.1 Overview

The LM5013 is an easy-to-use, ultra-low IQ constant on-time (COT) non-synchronous step-down buck regulator. With an integrated high-side power MOSFET, the LM5013 is a low-cost, highly efficient buck converter that operates from a wide input voltage of 6 V to 100 V, delivering up to 3.5-ADC load current. The LM5013 is available in an 8-pin SO PowerPAD integrated circuit package with 1.27-mm pin pitch for adequate spacing in high-voltage applications. This constant on-time (COT) converter is ideal for low-noise, high-current, and fast load transient requirements, operating with adaptive on-time switching pulse. Over the input voltage range, input voltage feedforward is used to achieve a quasi-fixed switching frequency. A controllable on time as low as 50 ns permits high step-down ratios and a minimum forced off time of 50 ns provides extremely high duty cycles, allowing VIN to drop close to VOUT before frequency foldback occurs. At light loads, the device transitions into an ultra-low IQ mode to maintain high efficiency and prevents draining battery cells connected to the input when the system is in standby. The LM5013 implements a peak current limit detection circuit to ensure robust protection during output short-circuit conditions. Control loop compensation is not required for this regulator, reducing design time and external component count.

The LM5013 incorporates additional features for comprehensive system requirements:

  • Power-rail sequencing and fault reporting
  • Internally-fixed soft start
  • Open-drain power good
  • Monotonic start-up into prebiased loads
  • Precision enable for programmable line undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
  • Smart cycle-by-cycle current limit for optimal inductor sizing
  • Thermal shutdown with automatic recovery

These features enable a flexible and easy-to-use platform for a wide range of applications. The LM5013 supports a wide range of end-equipment systems requiring a regulated output from a high input supply where the transient voltage deviates from the DC level. The following are examples of such end equipment systems:

  • High cell-count battery-pack systems
  • 24-V industrial systems
  • 48-V telecommunication and PoE voltage ranges

The pin arrangement is designed for a simple layout requiring only a few external components.
