L7987LTR Übersicht
A buck converter, also known as a step-down switching regulator, is a type of DC-DC converter that efficiently reduces a higher input voltage to a lower output voltage. Unlike linear regulators, which dissipate excess power as heat, buck converters use switching elements (transistors) and energy storage components (inductors and capacitors) to achieve high efficiency, often exceeding 90%. This makes them essential in power management systems where thermal constraints and battery life are critical. The L7987LTR belongs to the broader category of switching regulators, which are a subset of voltage regulators within power management ICs.
Key features of the L7987LTR include a programmable switching frequency from 250 kHz to 1 MHz, allowing designers to optimize efficiency versus component size. It offers a low quiescent current of 1.3 mA in light-load conditions, making it suitable for battery-powered applications. The device also features an internal compensation network, simplifying the design process, and includes a power-good flag for system monitoring. Its wide input voltage range of up to 61V makes it ideal for automotive systems that must withstand load-dump transients.
The L7987LTR utilizes a current-mode control architecture, providing fast transient response and stable operation over a wide range of output voltages. The integrated high-side MOSFET reduces external component count and PCB area. The device is available in a thermally enhanced HTSSOP-16 package, which offers a low thermal resistance of 40°C/W, enabling efficient heat dissipation in high-power applications.
Typical applications include industrial power supplies, automotive infotainment systems, distributed power architectures, and battery chargers. Its ability to handle high input voltages and deliver 3A output makes it a versatile choice for point-of-load regulation in harsh environments.
When designing with the L7987LTR, ensure proper PCB layout with short, low-inductance paths for the switching node and adequate copper area for thermal management. The exposed pad should be soldered to a large ground plane to maximize heat dissipation. Additionally, select an inductor with a saturation current rating above the peak switch current to avoid core saturation.

Designhinweise
For optimal performance, place the input capacitor (10µF) and output capacitor (22µF) as close as possible to the VIN and SW pins. Use a solid ground plane and connect the exposed pad to the ground plane with multiple vias to enhance thermal dissipation. Keep the feedback trace short and away from the switching node to avoid noise coupling.
The HTSSOP-16 package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 40°C/W. At 3A output with a 12V to 5V conversion, power dissipation is approximately 21W, which would require a heatsink or forced air cooling. For typical applications with lower power dissipation, ensure adequate copper area on the PCB to keep the junction temperature below 125°C.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum input voltage of 61V. Ensure the inductor saturation current is higher than the peak switch current (typically 3.5A) to prevent core saturation. Use a Schottky diode with a voltage rating above the input voltage for the catch diode. Verify the feedback resistor divider accuracy to maintain output voltage regulation.
