Product details
Overview
BQ500101DPCR from Texas Instruments is a NexFET™ power stage IC optimized for wireless power transmitter applications, functioning as a synchronous buck gate driver with integrated high- and low-side MOSFETs. It delivers 98% system efficiency at 5 A, supports up to 10 A continuous / 15 A peak VSW current, operates at switching frequencies up to 600 kHz, and targets WPC v1.2-compliant 15-W transmitters.
For engineers reviewing the BQ500101DPCR datasheet, BQ500101DPCR pinout, BQ500101DPCR application, or BQ500101DPCR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed thermal and electrical specifications, and real-world design guidance for Qi-compliant wireless power systems requiring high-density, low-loss power stages.
Technical Context
The BQ500101DPCR integrates a dual-MOSFET power stage with optimized gate drivers, shoot-through protection, and an integrated bootstrap diode-enabling direct PWM control without external level-shifting circuitry. Its architecture supports both fixed- and variable-frequency coil drivers in WPC v1.2 transmitters, with rail voltage control capability for medium-power (15-W) topologies.
It features undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 4.15 V turn-on and 3.7 V turn-off thresholds, 3.3-V/5-V PWM-compatible tri-state input logic, and thermal management via ultra-low-inductance VSON-CLIP (DPC) package with exposed thermal pad. System-level performance is characterized by measured power loss curves-not just RDS(on)-across load, temperature, frequency, and inductance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Continuous VSW Current | 10 A at VIN = 10 V, VDD = 5 V, fSW = 130 kHz, LSW = 6 µH - defines maximum sustained output drive capability in Qi transmitter coil driver or rail control stage |
| Peak VSW Current | 15 A - supports transient surge handling during startup or fault recovery in wireless power transmitters |
| Switching Frequency | Up to 600 kHz - enables compact magnetics and high-efficiency operation in space-constrained 15-W transmitter designs |
| System Efficiency | 98% at 5 A - measured under typical WPC v1.2 operating conditions, reducing thermal load and improving power density |
| Power Loss | 0.53 W at ISW = 5 A, TJ = 25°C - quantifies total device dissipation including conduction, switching, and gate drive losses |
| Input Voltage Range | Up to 24 V - accommodates wide-input DC bus architectures common in multi-standard wireless chargers |
| UVLO Threshold | 4.15 V (rising), 3.7 V (falling) - ensures robust start-up and shutdown sequencing in noisy automotive or industrial power environments |
Pinout & Package
The BQ500101DPCR uses a VSON-CLIP (DPC) 8-pin package with 3.5 mm × 4.5 mm body size, ultra-low inductance layout, and exposed thermal pad for enhanced PCB heat transfer. Pin 9 is the thermal pad (PGND-connected).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | VDD | Gate driver supply input (4.5–5.5 V); must be bypassed with ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to PGND for stable high-speed switching |
| 3, 9 | PGND | Power ground return for FET sources and internal drivers; electrically tied to thermal pad for optimal thermal path |
| 4 | VSW | Switching node connection to inductor; carries full AC current and high dv/dt - requires minimal trace length and tight loop area |
| 5 | VIN | Main input supply (up to 24 V); connects to bulk capacitors placed adjacent to pins 3/5/9 to minimize input loop inductance |
| 6 | BOOT_R | Bootstrap return node; internally connected to VSW - forms low-impedance return path for bootstrap capacitor charge/discharge |
| 7 | BOOT | Bootstrap supply node; connects to CBOOT (0.1 µF, 16 V X5R) between BOOT and BOOT_R to drive high-side FET gate |
| 8 | PWM | Tri-state PWM input (3.3/5 V compatible); logic high drives Control FET on/Sync FET off, logic low reverses, open/high-Z disables both |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Bootstrap Diode | Eliminates external bootstrap diode, reducing BOM count and PCB footprint while maintaining reliable high-side gate drive |
| Shoot-Through Protection | Hardware-level dead-time enforcement prevents simultaneous high- and low-side FET conduction, avoiding destructive shoot-through current |
| System-Optimized PCB Footprint | Minimizes high-current loop area and parasitic inductance - critical for EMI control and stability at >10 kV/µs dv/dt |
| RoHS Compliant & Halogen Free | Meets global environmental compliance requirements for industrial, medical, and consumer wireless charging equipment |
| Optimized for 15-W Wireless Power | Parametrically tuned FETs and gate drivers deliver lowest system-level power loss in WPC v1.2 medium-power transmitter reference designs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck power stage applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP8765GQ-Z (Monolithic Power Systems) | Single-channel 12-V input, 10-A rated buck converter with integrated inductor; lacks tri-state PWM interface and bootstrap integration | Targeted at simpler DC-DC conversion, not wireless power coil driving; no VSW node access or shoot-through protection | Select when board space permits integrated inductor and system does not require direct coil driver control or WPC compliance |
| LM5113SDX/NOPB (Texas Instruments) | High-speed dual gate driver (no FETs); supports 100-V high-side, 5-MHz max frequency; requires external MOSFETs and bootstrap diode | Used in custom high-voltage or high-frequency buck/boost stages where discrete FET selection is required for thermal or reliability optimization | Select when design demands independent FET selection, higher voltage rating (>24 V), or operation beyond 600 kHz switching frequency |
Compared with MP8765GQ-Z and LM5113SDX/NOPB, the BQ500101DPCR uniquely combines integrated FETs, tri-state PWM control, and WPC-optimized efficiency in a single 3.5 × 4.5 mm package-reducing component count, layout complexity, and validation effort specifically for 15-W wireless power transmitters.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating for the BQ500101DPCR?
The BQ500101DPCR is rated for 10 A continuous VSW current under recommended operating conditions: VIN = 10 V, VDD = 5 V, duty cycle = 50%, fSW = 130 kHz, and LSW = 6 µH at TA = 25°C. This rating is validated by TI's system-level power loss measurements-not extrapolated from RDS(on). The BQ500101DPCR also supports 15 A peak current for short-duration transients.
Does the BQ500101DPCR require an external bootstrap diode?
No, the BQ500101DPCR integrates a bootstrap switch (FET-based) between VDD and BOOT, eliminating the need for an external bootstrap diode. The BOOT_R pin is internally connected to VSW, forming a complete bootstrap circuit with only an external 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor (CBOOT) required between BOOT and BOOT_R. This reduces component count and improves reliability in wireless power applications.
What is the purpose of the tri-state PWM input on the BQ500101DPCR?
The tri-state PWM input (Pin 8) allows three operational states: logic high (Control FET on, Sync FET off), logic low (Control FET off, Sync FET on), and high-impedance/open (both FETs off after t3HT timeout). This enables precise dead-time control, safe startup/shutdown sequencing, and fault-handling capability-critical for preventing shoot-through and ensuring robust operation in WPC v1.2 transmitters. The BQ500101DPCR implements hardware-enforced dead time without external timing components.
Can the BQ500101DPCR be used outside of wireless power applications?
Yes-the BQ500101DPCR is explicitly documented by TI for synchronous buck applications beyond wireless power, including general-purpose high-efficiency DC-DC conversion. Its 24-V input rating, 10-A continuous current, and 600-kHz switching capability make it suitable for industrial motor drives, LED drivers, and point-of-load regulators where compact size and low loss are prioritized. However, its pinout and feature set remain optimized for coil driver and rail control roles found in BQ500101DPCR-based transmitter designs.
What thermal management considerations apply to the BQ500101DPCR?
The BQ500101DPCR relies on its exposed thermal pad (Pin 9) for primary heat dissipation, with RθJB = 2.5–5°C/W to the PCB. Designers must use ≥6 thermal vias (10-mil drill, 16-mil pad, tented) under the pad, connect to inner-layer GND planes, and maintain minimum 1-inch² copper area. TI's SOA curves assume a 4" × 3.5" × 0.062" 6-layer board; derating is required for smaller or lower-copper-thickness layouts. The BQ500101DPCR junction temperature must not exceed 150°C.
