Features • Input voltage range 2.95V to 5.5V • Accurate current limit minimizes inductor size • 97% peak efficiency • Frequency synchronization pin • 32 mΩ integrated FET switches • Starts up into pre-biased loads • Output voltage tracking • Peak current mode control • Adjustable Soft-Start with external capacitor • Precision enable pin with hysteresis • Integrated OVP, UVLO, power good and thermal shutdown • eTSSOP-16 exposed pad package Description The LM20133 is a full featured synchronous buck regulator capable of delivering up to 3A of continuous output current. The current mode control loop can be compensated to be stable with virtually any type of output capacitor. For most cases, compensating the device only requires two external components, providing maximum flexibility and ease of use. The device is optimized to work over the input voltage range of 2.95V to 5.5V making it suited for a wide variety of low voltage systems. The device features internal over voltage protection (OVP) and over current protection (OCP) circuits for increased system reliability. A precision enable pin and integrated UVLO allows the turn on of the device to be tightly controlled and sequenced. Start-up inrush currents are limited by both an internally fixed and externally adjustable Soft-Start circuit. Fault detection and supply sequencing is possible with the integrated power good circuit. The switching frequency of the LM20133 can be synchronized to an external clock by use of the SYNC pin. The SYNC pin is capable of synchronizing to input signals ranging from 500 kHz to 1.5 MHz. The LM20133 is designed to work well in multi-rail power supply architectures. The output voltage of the device can be configured to track a higher voltage rail using the SS/TRK pin. If the output of the LM20133 is pre-biased at startup it will not sink current to pull the output low until the internal soft-start ramp exceeds the voltage at the feedback pin. The LM20133 is offered in a 16-pin eTSSOP package with an exposed pad that can be soldered to the PCB, eliminating the need for bulky heatsinks. Applications • Simple to design, high efficiency point of load regulation from a 5V or 3.3V bus • High Performance DSPs, FPGAs, ASICs and microprocessors • Broadband, Networking and Optical Communications Infrastructure

Note: The Early Failure Rates (EFR) were calculated as point estimate PPM based on rejects and sample size for EFR. The Long Term Failure Rates were calculated at 60% confidence using the Arrhenius equation at 0.7eV activation energy and derating the assumed stress temperature of 150°C to an application temperature of 55°C.
