Product details
Overview
DA9131-XXRT2-A from Renesas Electronics is a dual-channel, automotive-grade PMIC integrating two fully synchronous buck converters for CPU/GPU and DDR memory rail regulation in ADAS and infotainment systems. It delivers up to 5 A per channel across 0.3 V–1.9 V output range from a 2.8 V–5.5 V input, features 4 MHz switching frequency, ±1 % static output voltage accuracy, and AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualification.
For engineers reviewing the DA9131-XXRT2-A datasheet, DA9131-XXRT2-A pinout, DA9131-XXRT2-A application, or DA9131-XXRT2-A equivalent, key selection criteria include remote-sense feedback capability, I2C-compatible FM+ interface with configurable slave address, Dynamic Voltage Control (DVC) support via register or GPIO, integrated over-temperature/over-current protection, and wettable-flank 24-pin FCQFN (3.3 mm × 4.8 mm) packaging for automotive-grade solder joint inspection.
Technical Context
The DA9131-XXRT2-A implements two independent single-phase buck regulators with integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs, eliminating external FETs or Schottky diodes. Each channel uses resistive divider feedback (FB1P/FB1N, FB2P/FB2N) with remote sensing for ±1 % static accuracy under load and thermal variation.
Its digital control core supports programmable soft-start, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, and DVC via either I2C register writes or dedicated GPIO pins. The FM+-compatible I2C interface operates up to 1 MHz and enables multi-device addressing through CONF/GPIO0 configuration, supporting complex power sequencing in SoC-based ECU designs.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the DA9131-XXRT2-A in automotive systems?
The DA9131-XXRT2-A is a dual-channel automotive PMIC that regulates critical voltage rails for CPUs, GPUs, and DDR memory in ADAS, infotainment, and cluster applications. It integrates two fully synchronous buck converters with remote sensing, I2C control, and AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualification - enabling precise, reliable, and efficient power delivery in safety-critical automotive ECUs. Its design eliminates external FETs and supports dynamic voltage scaling to reduce system power consumption.
Does the DA9131-XXRT2-A support remote voltage sensing, and why is it important?
Yes, the DA9131-XXRT2-A supports true differential remote sensing via FB1P/FB1N and FB2P/FB2N pins. This allows the IC to measure output voltage directly at the load, compensating for IR drop across PCB traces or connectors. In automotive applications - especially those with long flex cables to displays or distributed sensor modules - this ensures ±1 % static output accuracy at the point-of-load, preventing logic errors, resets, or timing violations caused by voltage droop.
What package type and dimensions does the DA9131-XXRT2-A use, and how does it benefit automotive manufacturing?
The DA9131-XXRT2-A uses a 24-pin FCQFN package with wettable flanks, measuring 3.3 mm × 4.8 mm. The wettable flanks enable automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints - a critical requirement for zero-defect automotive PCB assembly. Its compact size also supports high-density layouts in space-constrained modules like center consoles and radar ECUs, while the thermal performance (θJA = 21.21 °C/W) sustains operation at full load within −40 °C to +105 °C ambient.
How does Dynamic Voltage Control (DVC) work on the DA9131-XXRT2-A?
Dynamic Voltage Control (DVC) on the DA9131-XXRT2-A allows adaptive adjustment of output voltage based on processor load state. It can be triggered either by writing to internal registers via the I2C-compatible FM+ interface or by asserting a dedicated GPIO pin (e.g., CONF/GPIO0 or GPIO1). This enables real-time voltage scaling - lowering VOUT during CPU/GPU idle modes - which reduces dynamic power dissipation without requiring host firmware intervention or external DACs.
Is the DA9131-XXRT2-A pin-compatible with other Renesas PMICs like the DA9130 or DA9231?
No, the DA9131-XXRT2-A is not pin-compatible with the DA9130 or DA9231. It uses a unique 24-pin FCQFN layout with specific pin assignments for dual-channel feedback (FB1P/FB1N, FB2P/FB2N), wettable flanks, and integrated GPIO functionality. The DA9130 is a single-channel variant, while the DA9231 targets different input ranges and feature sets. Migration requires PCB redesign and firmware adaptation due to differences in register mapping, protection thresholds, and sequencing behavior.
