LMR33630-Q1

3.8–36V, 3A synchronous buck converter

A 3A buck with integrated switches, compensation and power-good signaling for automotive load rails. Frequency depends on the variant; 400kHz, 1.4MHz and 2.1MHz are not an arbitrary runtime menu for every OPN.

In one sentence: Qualification is grounded in this TI product's documentation; no grade is inferred from temperature. An ordering table may show junction or variant-specific limits, which must be distinguished from ambient conditions. TI explicitly lists Functional Safety-Capable. This is a device-documentation category, not system ASIL certification; assess the exact function, assumptions and safety manual.

Orderable variants (OPNs)

The GPN is for selection; the full OPN is for ordering. These examples were observed on the verification date, not live stock. Variants may differ in package, temperature, gain/threshold and, for PMICs, NVM/sequencing. Distinguish TA from TJ in the exact datasheet.

FAQ

Is the highest-frequency variant always better?

Higher frequency may shrink passives but changes switching loss, minimum-on-time constraints and EMI margin. Evaluate VIN/VOUT ratio and thermal budget, not size alone.

Can it boost the voltage?

No. It is a buck. When cold-crank input approaches or falls below output, check dropout or select an appropriate buck-boost architecture.

How should I verify the LMR33630-Q1 orderable?

The page lists 6 OPN examples from official material checked on 2026-11-06. Match package, function options and temperature definitions; obtain live price/stock from TI or authorized distributors.
