The LMZ10500 SIMPLE SWITCHER® nano module
is an easy-to-use step-down DC-DC solution capable
of driving up to 650mA load in space-constrained
applications. Only an input capacitor, an output
capacitor, a small V
resistors are required for basic operation. The nano
module comes in 8-pin POS footprint package with
an integrated inductor. Internal current limit based
softstart function, current overload protection, and
thermal shutdown are also provided.

1ENEnable Input. Set this digital input higher than 1.2V for normal operation. For shutdown, set low. Pin is
internally pulled up to VIN and can be left floating for always-on operation.

4SGNDGround for analog and control circuitry. Connect to PGND at a single point.
5VOUTOutput Voltage. Connected to one terminal of the integrated inductor. Connect output filter capacitor between
VOUT and PGND.
6PGNDPower ground for the power MOSFETs and gate-drive circuitry.
7VINVoltage supply input. Connect ceramic capacitor between VIN and PGND as close as possible to these two
pins. Typical capacitor values are between 4.7µF and 22µF.
8VREF2.35V voltage reference output. Typically connected to VCON pin through a resistive divider to set the output
voltage.
PADThe 3 pads underneath the module are not internally connected to any node. These pads should be
connected to the ground plane for improved thermal performance.
These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam
during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.
