Features • Low component count and small solution size • Stable with ceramic and other low ESR capacitors • No loop compensation required • High efficiency at a light load by DCM operation • Pre-bias startup • Ultra-fast transient response • Programmable soft-start • Programmable switching frequency up to 1 MHz • Valley current limit • Output over-voltage protection • Precision internal reference for an adjustable output voltage down to 0.8V • Thermal shutdown Description The LM3102 Synchronously Rectified Buck Converter features all required functions to implement a highly efficient and cost effective buck regulator. It is capable of supplying 2.5A to loads with an output voltage as low as 0.8V. Dual N-Channel synchronous MOSFET switches allow a low component count, thus reducing complexity and minimizing board size. Different from most other COT regulators, the LM3102 does not rely on output capacitor ESR for stability, and is designed to work exceptionally well with ceramic and other very low ESR output capacitors. It requires no loop compensation, results in a fast load transient response and simple circuit implementation. The operating frequency remains nearly constant with line variations due to the inverse relationship between the input voltage and the on-time. The operating frequency can be externally programmed up to 1 MHz. Protection features include VCC under-voltage lock-out, output over-voltage protection, thermal shutdown, and gate drive under-voltage lock-out. The LM3102 is available in the thermally enhanced eTSSOP-20 package. Key Specification • Input voltage range 4.5V-42V • 2.5A output current • 0.8V, ±1.5% reference • Integrated dual N-Channel main and synchronous MOSFETs • Thermally enhanced eTSSOP-20 package

Reliability Metrics

Part Number	Process	EFR Reject	EFR Sample Size	PPM	LTA Rejects	LTA Device Hours	FITS	MTTF (Hours)
LM3102MH	ABCD150	0	34175	0	0	4234000	1	1201409060
LM3102MHX	ABCD150	0	34175	0	0	4234000	1	1201409060

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.
