LM22679 5A SIMPLE SWITCHER®, Step-Down Voltage Regulator with Adjustable Soft-Start and
Current Limit

General Description

The LM22679 series of regulators are monolithic integrated circuits which provide all of the active functions for a step­down (buck) switching regulator capable of driving up to 5A loads with excellent line and load regulation characteristics. High efficiency (>90%) is obtained through the use of a low ON-resistance N-channel MOSFET. The series consists of a fixed 5V output and an adjustable version.
The SIMPLE SWITCHER® concept provides for an easy to use complete design using a minimum number of external components and National’s WEBENCH® design tool. National’s WEBENCH® tool includes features such as exter­nal component calculation, electrical simulation, thermal sim­ulation, and Build-It boards for easy design-in. The switching clock frequency is provided by an internal fixed frequency os­cillator which operates at 500 kHz. The LM22679 series also has built in thermal shutdown and current limiting. The current limit threshold can be adjusted using an external resistor. An adjustable soft-start feature is provided by selecting an ap­propriate external soft-start capacitor.

Pin Descriptions

Pin Name Description Application Information
1 SW Switch pin Attaches to the switch node
2 VIN Source input voltage Input to the regulator. Operates from 4.5V to 42V
3 BOOT Bootstrap input Provides the gate voltage for the high side NFET
4 GND System ground Provide good capacitive decoupling between VIN and this pin
5 IADJ Current Limit Setting pin A resistor attached between this pin and GND can be used to set the current limit threshold.
Pin can be left floating and internal setting will be default.
6 FB Feedback pin Inverting input to the internal voltage error amplifier.
7 SS Soft-start pin An external capacitor and an internal 50 µA current source set the time constant for the rise
of the error amplifier reference. Pin can be left floating and internal soft-start will be default.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur, including inoperability and degradation of device reliability and/or performance. Functional operation of the device and/or non-degradation at the Absolute Maximum Ratings or other conditions beyond those indicated in the recommended Operating Ratings is not implied. The recommended Operating Ratings indicate conditions at which the device is functional and should not be operated beyond such conditions.
Note 2: The absolute maximum specification of the ‘SW to GND’ applies to DC voltage. An extended negative voltage limit of -10V applies to a pulse of up to 50 ns.
Note 3: ESD was applied using the human body model, a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 k resistor into each pin.
Note 4: Typical values represent most likely parametric norms at the conditions specified and are not guaranteed.
Note 5: Min and Max limits are 100% production tested at 25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed through correlation using Statistical
Quality Control (SQC) methods. Limits are used to calculate National’s Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL).
Note 6: The value of θJA for the TO-263 THIN (TJ) package of 22°C/W is valid if package is mounted to 1 square inch of copper. The θJA value can range from 20 to 30°C/W depending on the amount of PCB copper dedicated to heat transfer. See application note AN-1797 for more information.
