SNVS397F September 2005 – December 2025 LM5005
PRODUCTION DATA
The LM5005 high-voltage switching regulator features all of the functions necessary to implement an efficient high-voltage buck regulator using a minimum of external components. This easy-to-use regulator integrates a 75V N-channel buck switch with an output current capability of 2.5A. The regulator control method is based on current mode control using an emulated current ramp. Peak current mode control provides inherent line feed-forward, cycle-by-cycle current limiting and simple loop compensation. The use of an emulated control ramp reduces noise sensitivity of the pulse-width modulation circuit, allowing reliable processing of small duty cycles necessary in high input voltage applications. The operating frequency is user programmable from 50kHz to 500kHz. An oscillator synchronization pin allows multiple LM5005 regulators to self-synchronize or be synchronized to an external clock. The output voltage can be set at or above 1.225V. Fault protection features include cycle-by-cycle current limiting, thermal shutdown and remote shutdown capability. The device is available in the 20-pin HTSSOP package featuring an exposed pad to aid thermal dissipation.
Section 6.2 shows the functional block diagram and typical applications for LM5005. Use the LM5005 in numerous applications to efficiently step down from an unregulated input voltage. The device is well suited for telecom, industrial, and automotive-power bus voltage ranges.
