AN-2074 LMZ1050xEXT Evaluation Board
1
Introduction
The LMZ1050xEXT SIMPLE SWITCHER® power module is a complete, easy-to-use DC-DC solution
capable of driving up to 3A, 4A, or 5A load with exceptional power conversion efficiency, output voltage
accuracy, line and load regulation. The LMZ1050xEXT is available in an innovative package that
enhances thermal performance and allows for hand or machine soldering.
The LMZ1050xEXT can accept an input voltage rail between 2.95V and 5.5V and deliver an adjustable
and highly accurate output voltage as low as 0.8V. One megahertz fixed frequency PWM switching
provides a predictable EMI characteristic. Two external compensation components can be adjusted to set
the fastest response time, while allowing the option to use ceramic and/or electrolytic output capacitors.
Externally programmable soft-start capacitor facilitates controlled startup. The LMZ1050xEXT is a reliable
and robust solution with the following features: lossless cycle-by-cycle peak current limit to protect for over
current or short-circuit fault, thermal shutdown, input under-voltage lock-out, and pre-biased startup.

VIN = 2.95V to 5.5V
VOUT = 2.5V (default output voltage setting, refer to Table 2 for other output settings)
±2.5% feedback voltage accuracy at 2.5V output (Including line and load regulation from TJ = -55°C to
125°C)
±1.63% feedback voltage accuracy over temperature
IOUT = 0A to 3A, 4A, and 5A
θJA = 20°C/W, θJC = 1.9°C/W
Designed on four layers, the top and bottom layers are 1oz. copper and the two inner layers are 1/2
oz. copper weight
Measures 2.25 in. x 2.25 in. (5.8 cm x 5.8 cm) and is 62mil (.062”) thick on a FR4 laminate
Evaluation Board Design Concept
The evaluation board is designed to demonstrate low conducted noise on the input and output lines, as
seen in Figure 11 and Figure 14. Four input capacitors (Cin1 - C in4) and three output capacitors (Co1 - Co3)
are populated for this purpose. All the input and output filter capacitors are not necessary to comply with
radiation standards. For a circuit example that passes radiated emissions standards (EN55022, class B)
please refer to Figure 19. Additionally, Cin5 is present to reduce the resonance of the input line produced
by the inductance and resistance in the cables connecting the bench power supply to the evaluation board
and the input capacitors.

Additional Component Footprints
When the tracking feature of the LMZ1050xEXT is used, remove the soft-start capacitor CSS and use a
resistor divider on designators Rtrkb and Rtrkt. The ground and Vtrk post have been provided for easy
connection.
The LMZ1050xEXT eval board incorporates a precision enable circuit which is pulled high by a 100 kΩ
pull up resistor to VIN. This allows the user to pull low on the enable pin to ground. The top enable resistor
is Rent and the bottom enable resistor is Renb. Refer to the Design Guideline and Operating Description
section of the LMZ1050xEXT data sheet for detailed design implementation.
Select FPGAs specify input inrush currents for particular power-up sequences and others require
sequencing rails to avoid start-up or latch-up problems. To prevent early turn-on of the LMZ1050xEXT in
systems with multiple power rails, precision enable and tracking are useful as the main input voltage rail
rises at power-up.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
