Product details
Overview
CSD95481RWJT from Texas Instruments is a synchronous buck NexFET™ Smart Power Stage integrating driver IC and dual MOSFETs in a single VQFN-CLIP package. It delivers 60-A continuous output current at up to 1.25 MHz switching frequency, supports 3.3-V/5-V PWM logic, and features integrated bi-directional current sensing and analog temperature output for VR12.x/VR13.x voltage regulator applications in server CPU power delivery.
For engineers reviewing the CSD95481RWJT datasheet, CSD95481RWJT pinout, CSD95481RWJT application, or CSD95481RWJT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60-A continuous current rating, 5-mm × 6-mm thermally enhanced QFN-CLIP package with topside cooling, diode emulation mode via EN/FCCM pin, and compatibility with high-frequency multiphase POL converters requiring accurate current and thermal monitoring.
Technical Context
The CSD95481RWJT implements a fully integrated synchronous buck power stage with an internal gate driver controlling high-side and low-side NexFET™ MOSFETs. Its PWM input accepts tri-state logic for seamless control, while EN/FCCM enables either forced continuous conduction mode or diode emulation based on pin voltage level and hold time.
Current sensing is achieved via a temperature-compensated bi-directional amplifier referenced to REFIN, with IOUT providing a voltage proportional to phase current. The TAO/FLT pin delivers an analog voltage linearly tracking die temperature, supporting OR-wired multiphase thermal monitoring without external circuitry.
Key Specifications

| PWM Logic Compatibility | 3.3-V and 5-V compatible - eliminates level-shifting requirements when interfacing with common PMIC controllers. |
| Thermal Resistance (Junction-to-Board) | 2.2 °C/W - ensures efficient heat transfer to PCB copper, critical for sustained 60-A operation without heatsinks. |
| Current Sensing Accuracy | Temperature-compensated bi-directional sensing - maintains precision across –40°C to 125°C junction range for accurate load-line regulation. |
| Package Type | VQFN-CLIP (RWJ), 41-pin, 5.0 mm × 6.0 mm - integrates exposed thermal pad and ultra-low-inductance layout for minimal switching loss and EMI. |
| Operating Junction Temperature | –40°C to 125°C - supports industrial and server-grade thermal environments without derating. |
Pinout & Package
VQFN-CLIP (RWJ) package: 41-pin, 5.0 mm × 6.0 mm outline with exposed thermal pad on bottom and topside cooling capability. Package optimized for low parasitic inductance and high-power density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pins 25–30) | Input voltage supply | High-current input node; requires local high-frequency ceramic capacitance for stable high-dI/dt operation. |
| VSW (Pins 10–19) | Phase node | Connection point between HS FET source and LS FET drain; directly interfaces with output inductor and must minimize loop area. |
| PGND (Pins 5, 7–9, 20–24, 40) | Power ground return | Dedicated low-impedance ground path for high-frequency switching currents; multiple pins reduce resistance and inductance. |
| PWM (Pin 34) | Tri-state gate control input | Directly drives internal driver; Hi-Z state triggers automatic shutdown after configurable hold-off time (T3HT). |
| EN/FCCM (Pin 35) | Mode selection & enable | Configures forced CCM (high), diode emulation (tri-state hold), or disable (low); internal pull-down ensures safe default state. |
| IOUT (Pin 38) | Current sense amplifier output | Provides voltage proportional to phase current (V(IOUT) – V(REFIN)); used for closed-loop current limiting and telemetry. |
| TAO/FLT (Pin 36) | Temperature amplifier output / fault indicator | Analog voltage proportional to die temperature; pulled to 3.3 V during thermal shutdown - supports wired-OR multiphase monitoring. |
| LSET (Pin 37) | Inductor value programming | Resistor-to-PGND sets gain for current sensing circuitry, enabling calibration for specific inductor DCR values. |
Key Features

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, but rated for 70-A continuous current and higher 16-V VIN max; includes enhanced thermal monitoring resolution. | Better suited for next-gen server CPUs requiring >60-A per phase and tighter thermal binning. | Select CSD95492QVM when scaling beyond 60-A or needing extended input voltage margin above 16 V. |
| MP87651GQH | 60-A rated QFN-40 package (5 mm × 6 mm), but lacks integrated bi-directional current sensing and analog temperature output; requires external sense resistor. | Applicable where cost sensitivity outweighs telemetry needs, and system-level current monitoring is handled externally. | Choose MP87651GQH only if current/temperature telemetry is omitted from system architecture and layout simplicity is prioritized over accuracy. |
Compared with CSD95481RWJT, CSD95492QVM offers higher current headroom and input voltage tolerance for future-proofing, while MP87651GQH reduces component count at the expense of integrated sensing - making CSD95481RWJT the optimal balance of performance, integration, and thermal intelligence for VR12.x/VR13.x deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for the CSD95481RWJT?
The CSD95481RWJT is rated for 60-A continuous output current under specified conditions: VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 1.2 V, PVDD = 5 V, VDD = 5 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 durations (tp = 50 µs), supporting demanding transient loads in CPU VR applications.
Does the CSD95481RWJT support diode emulation mode, and how is it enabled?
Yes, the CSD95481RWJT supports diode emulation mode to improve light-load efficiency. It is enabled by driving the EN/FCCM pin into the tri-state window (between 0.8 V and 2.0 V) and holding it there for longer than the internal tri-state hold-off time (T3HT). When active, the low-side FET turns off during discontinuous conduction, mimicking diode behavior and reducing reverse recovery losses - a key feature for VR12.x/VR13.x compliance.
How does the CSD95481RWJT provide current sensing without an external shunt resistor?
The CSD95481RWJT uses integrated temperature-compensated bi-directional current sensing that measures voltage drop across the MOSFETs' RDS(on) rather than requiring an external shunt. The IOUT pin outputs a voltage proportional to phase current relative to REFIN, while LSET pin allows gain calibration via an external resistor to match the selected inductor's DCR. This eliminates power loss and board space associated with traditional sense resistors.
What thermal metrics define the CSD95481RWJT's cooling performance?
The CSD95481RWJT specifies θJB = 2.2 °C/W (junction-to-board) and θJC(top) = 7.4 °C/W, reflecting its thermally enhanced VQFN-CLIP construction. The exposed top metal surface enables direct heatsink attachment, while the bottom thermal pad must be soldered to a large PCB copper plane. These metrics ensure reliable 60-A operation at ≤125°C junction temperature with appropriate board-level thermal design - no additional thermal interface material is required for topside cooling.
Is the CSD95481RWJT pin-compatible with other devices in the same family, such as CSD95492QVM?
Yes, the CSD95481RWJT and CSD95492QVM share identical 41-pin VQFN-CLIP (RWJ) packaging, mechanical footprint, and pinout - including VIN, VSW, PGND, PWM, EN/FCCM, IOUT, TAO/FLT, and LSET assignments. This allows direct replacement in existing layouts when upgrading to higher current capability or extended input voltage range, provided system-level validation confirms thermal and electrical margins.
