Product details
Overview
CSD95372BQ5MT from Texas Instruments is a synchronous buck NexFET™ Smart Power Stage integrating driver IC and dual power MOSFETs in a single LSON-CLIP (DQP) package. It delivers 60 A continuous output current, achieves 93.4% system efficiency at 30 A (VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 1.2 V, fSW = 500 kHz), and supports up to 1.25 MHz switching for high-density VR12.x and VR11.x voltage regulator applications in server CPU cores.
For engineers reviewing the CSD95372BQ5MT datasheet, CSD95372BQ5MT pinout, CSD95372BQ5MT application, or CSD95372BQ5MT equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated bi-directional current sense with temperature compensation, tri-state PWM compatibility (3.3 V/5 V), fault monitoring (HS short, overcurrent, overtemperature), and optimized 5 mm × 6 mm footprint for multiphase POL DC-DC designs.
Technical Context
The CSD95372BQ5MT implements a high-frequency synchronous buck topology with integrated gate driver, control FET, and sync FET in a thermally enhanced LSON-CLIP package. Its internal bootstrap diode, optimized deadtime control, and FCCM/diode emulation mode enable efficient light-load operation and shoot-through protection across 4.5–5.5 V VDD and 16 V max VIN.
Current sensing is implemented via differential IOUT/REFIN interface with temperature-compensated gain, while TAO/FAULT provides analog die temperature output (600 mV at 0°C) and thermal shutdown indication. The device operates across –40°C to 125°C ambient with RθJB = 1.5°C/W and supports multiphase interleaving via shared TAO bus.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Continuous Output Current | 60 A at VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 1.2 V, fSW = 500 kHz - enables single-phase support for high-current CPU core rails |
| Peak Output Current | 90 A for tp = 50 µs - sustains transient load steps without derating in VR12.x compliance designs |
| Switching Frequency | Up to 1250 kHz - allows smaller external inductors (e.g., 0.225 µH) and faster transient response |
| System Efficiency | 93.4% at 30 A - reduces thermal load and improves power density in space-constrained server modules |
| Power Loss | 2.8 W at 30 A - directly measurable loss enabling accurate thermal margining in multilayer PCB layouts |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJB = 1.5°C/W - enables direct board-level heat dissipation without heatsinks in standard FR4 stacks |
| Operating Junction Temp | –55°C to 150°C - supports industrial and extended-temperature server environments |
Pinout & Package
LSON-CLIP (DQP) package, 12-pin, 5 mm × 6 mm outline with exposed thermal pad; optimized for low-inductance layout and high-current PCB routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IOUT | Current sense amplifier output | Provides voltage proportional to phase current (IOUT – REFIN ∝ IL); enables closed-loop current monitoring |
| REFIN | Current sense reference input | External reference node for bi-directional current sense amplifier; sets zero-current baseline |
| VDD | Gate driver supply | 4.5–5.5 V supply for internal logic and gate drivers; decoupling required per TI layout guidelines |
| ENABLE | Global enable control | Logic HIGH enables operation; internal 100-kΩ pulldown ensures safe default OFF state |
| PGND | Power ground (x2 pins) | Dual PGND pins (pins 4 & 13) reduce ground loop inductance and improve current return path integrity |
| VSW | Switch node | Connects HS source and LS drain; ties directly to output inductor; critical for EMI and ringing control |
| PWM | 3-state PWM input | Accepts 3.3 V/5 V logic; High-Z state forces both FETs OFF after t3HT hold-off time for controlled shutdown |
| FCCM | Mode select (FCCM/Diode Emulation) | LOW enables diode emulation for discontinuous conduction; internal 5 µA pull-up defaults to FCCM |
| TAO/FAULT | Temperature analog output / fault indicator | Outputs 600 mV at 0°C; pulled to 3.3 V during thermal shutdown; supports wired-OR in multiphase systems |
| BOOT | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Requires ≥0.1 µF X7R ceramic to BOOT_R; supplies charge for HS FET gate drive |
| BOOT_R | Bootstrap return | Internally connected to VSW; completes bootstrap charging loop for high-side driver |
| VIN | Main input supply | 16 V max rating; requires local ceramic input capacitors placed adjacent to pin 7 per layout best practices |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck smart power stage applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CSD95372AQ5MT | Lower 50 A continuous current rating; identical pinout and feature set except reduced current capability and slightly lower efficiency (92.7% @ 30 A) | Suitable for cost-sensitive mid-tier desktop VRMs where peak current demand ≤50 A | Select when thermal budget allows higher loss or system current requirement is capped below 55 A |
| MP86957GQZ | Monolithic 70 A buck converter (integrated controller + FETs); no separate PWM interface-requires PMBus/I2C configuration | Targeted at fully integrated, digitally programmable VRMs rather than controller-driven multiphase systems | Choose only if migrating from external controller architecture to digital, self-contained power solution |
Compared with CSD95372BQ5MT, CSD95372AQ5MT offers identical integration and layout compatibility at reduced current capacity, while MP86957GQZ replaces the controller+power-stage architecture with a monolithic digital solution-requiring firmware integration and sacrificing multiphase flexibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the CSD95372BQ5MT?
The CSD95372BQ5MT has an absolute maximum VIN-to-PGND rating of 25 V, with a recommended operating limit of 16 V. Exceeding 16 V increases switch-node (VSW) overshoot risk during transients; system design must ensure VSW-to-PGND remains within the 20 V absolute max rating under all conditions. The CSD95372BQ5MT datasheet specifies this limit in Section 6.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does the CSD95372BQ5MT support diode emulation mode, and how is it enabled?
Yes, the CSD95372BQ5MT supports diode emulation mode via the FCCM pin. When FCCM is held LOW, the sync FET operates in diode emulation for discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), improving light-load efficiency. An internal 5 µA current source pulls FCCM to 3.3 V by default, so a dedicated pull-down is required to activate diode emulation. This behavior is documented in the Pin Functions table for FCCM in Section 5 of the CSD95372BQ5MT datasheet.
How does the TAO/FAULT pin function in multiphase configurations using multiple CSD95372BQ5MT devices?
In multiphase systems, the TAO/FAULT pins of multiple CSD95372BQ5MT units are wired together in a wired-OR configuration. Only the highest die temperature among all phases is reported on the shared line due to integrated ORing diodes. During thermal shutdown, the affected CSD95372BQ5MT pulls TAO/FAULT to 3.3 V, signaling system-level fault. This architecture eliminates need for external multiplexing and is explicitly supported per the TAO/FAULT pin description in Section 5 of the CSD95372BQ5MT datasheet.
What is the purpose of the dual PGND pins (pins 4 and 13) on the CSD95372BQ5MT?
The CSD95372BQ5MT features two dedicated PGND pins (4 and 13) to minimize power ground loop inductance and improve current return path integrity. Pin 4 serves the driver and logic ground, while pin 13 handles high-current power ground return from the MOSFETs. Separating these paths reduces noise coupling into sensitive analog circuits (e.g., current sense amplifier) and enhances stability-details confirmed in the Pin Functions table and layout recommendations in Section 9.2 of the CSD95372BQ5MT datasheet.
Can the CSD95372BQ5MT operate with a 3.3 V PWM input signal, and what is the tri-state behavior?
Yes, the CSD95372BQ5MT accepts 3.3 V or 5 V logic-level PWM inputs. Its tri-state PWM input (pin 12) interprets logic HIGH as control-FET ON/sync-FET OFF, logic LOW as control-FET OFF/sync-FET ON, and High-Z (open) as both FETs OFF after the 3-state shutdown hold-off time (t3HT). This enables seamless integration with controllers offering high-impedance disable states without external pull resistors. The specification is verified in Section 5 Pin Functions and Section 6.3 Recommended Operating Conditions of the CSD95372BQ5MT datasheet.
