Product details
Overview
CSD95480RWJT from Texas Instruments is a synchronous buck NexFET™ Smart Power Stage integrating driver IC and dual MOSFETs in a single 5-mm × 6-mm VQFN-CLIP package, delivering 70-A continuous output current, >95% efficiency at 30 A, and operation up to 1.25 MHz for high-density VR12.x/VR13.x CPU core power delivery in servers and desktops.
For engineers reviewing the CSD95480RWJT datasheet, CSD95480RWJT pinout, CSD95480RWJT application, or CSD95480RWJT equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated bi-directional current sense with temperature compensation, tri-state PWM compatibility (3.3 V/5 V), diode emulation mode, and thermally enhanced topside cooling for multiphase POL converters.
Technical Context
The CSD95480RWJT implements a fully integrated synchronous buck power stage with internal high-side and low-side NexFET™ MOSFETs driven by an embedded gate driver. It supports forced continuous conduction mode (FCCM) and diode emulation via the EN/FCCM pin, with dead-time optimization to prevent shoot-through.
Current sensing is achieved through analog differential amplification referenced to REFIN, with LSET resistor programming for inductor value calibration. Temperature monitoring is provided via the TAO/FLT pin, featuring integrated ORing diode for multiphase thermal reporting and thermal shutdown detection.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| CSD95492QVM | Same 41-pin VQFN-CLIP package, identical pinout, but rated for 60-A continuous current and lower RDS(on) on LS-FET | Suitable for cost-optimized or thermally relaxed 40–60 A designs; lacks same peak current headroom | Select CSD95492QVM when 60-A rating suffices and BOM cost reduction is prioritized over maximum transient capability |
| TPS53679 | Multi-phase controller IC (not power stage); requires external discrete MOSFETs or power stages; supports AVS, SMBus, and VR13.0 compliance | Used as master controller coordinating multiple CSD95480RWJT units; not a drop-in replacement | Choose TPS53679 only as system-level controller - it must be paired with CSD95480RWJT or similar power stages for full solution |
Compared with CSD95480RWJT, CSD95492QVM offers identical integration and footprint at lower current rating, while TPS53679 serves a complementary controller role rather than substituting the power stage - making CSD95480RWJT irreplaceable for high-current, space-constrained POL implementations requiring monolithic integration and thermal telemetry.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for the CSD95480RWJT?
The CSD95480RWJT is rated for 70-A continuous output current under specified conditions: VIN = 12 V, VDD = 5 V, PVDD = 5 V, VOUT = 1.2 V, and switching frequency = 500 kHz. This rating assumes proper PCB thermal design with adequate copper area and airflow. Peak current capability reaches 90 A for short transients (50 µs), supporting demanding CPU/GPU load steps. Derating applies at higher ambient temperatures or reduced airflow.
Does the CSD95480RWJT support diode emulation mode, and how is it enabled?
Yes, the CSD95480RWJT supports diode emulation mode to improve light-load efficiency. It is enabled by driving the EN/FCCM pin into the tri-state voltage window (between logic-high and logic-low thresholds) and holding it there for longer than the internal tri-state holdoff time (T3HT). When active, the low-side FET is disabled during off-time to eliminate reverse conduction losses. The CSD95480RWJT exits diode emulation automatically upon detecting a valid PWM signal transition.
How does the current sensing architecture of the CSD95480RWJT work, and what external components are required?
The CSD95480RWJT uses a temperature-compensated bi-directional current sense amplifier with differential output at IOUT referenced to REFIN. A precision resistor from LSET to PGND calibrates gain for the specific inductor's DCR or value. REFIN accepts an external reference (typically 0.6 V or 1.0 V) to set current-sense offset. No external shunt is needed - sensing relies on MOSFET RDS(on) and internal amplification. Layout must minimize noise coupling to IOUT, REFIN, and VOS pins.
What thermal management features does the CSD95480RWJT provide, and how is temperature reported?
The CSD95480RWJT provides analog temperature reporting via the TAO/FLT pin, outputting a voltage linearly proportional to junction temperature. An integrated ORing diode allows multiple CSD95480RWJT units in multiphase configurations to share a single TAO line, with only the highest temperature reported. During thermal shutdown (LSOC or HSS detection), TAO is pulled to 3.3 V. The package also features thermally enhanced topside cooling and a low θJB of 2.2°C/W for efficient PCB conduction.
Is the CSD95480RWJT pin-compatible with other TI Smart Power Stages such as the CSD95492QVM?
Yes, the CSD95480RWJT is pin-compatible with the CSD95492QVM - both use the identical 41-pin VQFN-CLIP (RWJ) package with matching pin functions, assignments, and mechanical footprint. This allows direct substitution in existing layouts when 60-A continuous current suffices. However, CSD95480RWJT delivers higher current (70 A vs. 60 A) and different RDS(on) characteristics, so thermal and efficiency validation is recommended even with identical pinout.
