Product details
Overview
DA9142-XXF71 from Renesas Electronics is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive DC-DC buck converter with dual-phase operation, delivering 13 A continuous and 20 A peak output current at 0.5–1.3 V output voltage, 4 MHz switching frequency, and ±1% static output voltage accuracy. It integrates high-side and low-side FETs, supports dynamic voltage control (DVC) via I²C or GPIO, and is used in ADAS domain controllers requiring precise rail sequencing and load-line regulation.
For engineers reviewing the DA9142-XXF71 datasheet, DA9142-XXF71 pinout, DA9142-XXF71 application, or DA9142-XXF71 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60-ball FC-BGA package (4.5 mm × 7 mm), remote-sense differential feedback (FBP/FBN), programmable soft-start, integrated over-temperature/over-current protection, and FM+ I²C interface for real-time DVC in automotive SoC power management.
Technical Context
The DA9142-XXF71 implements a synchronous dual-phase buck topology with interleaved 180° phase timing to reduce input/output ripple and improve thermal distribution. Its digital core includes OTP memory for configuration storage, register-mapped I²C (FM+, up to 1 MHz), and five configurable GPIOs supporting interrupt generation, address selection, and DVC trigger inputs.
Control architecture integrates adaptive phase shedding, programmable current limit thresholds, and temperature-based derating via on-die thermal sensors. Output voltage is set digitally in 10 mV steps across 0.5–1.3 V range, with remote sensing enabling <±5 mV load-transient deviation at point-of-load under 10 A/µs slew rate conditions.

Pinout & Package
DA9142-XXF71 uses a 60-ball Fine-Pitch Chip-Scale Ball Grid Array (FC-BGA) package measuring 4.5 mm × 7 mm with 0.65 mm pitch. The package integrates power, analog, and digital domains with dedicated PVDD, PGND, AGND, and AVDD balls for noise isolation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PVDD1–PVDD4 | Power supply input for buck phases | Four independent 10 A-capable power rails decoupled per phase to minimize cross-talk and ground bounce |
| LX1, LX2 | Switch node outputs | Drive external 110 nH inductors; LX3/LX4 are No Connect - confirms dual-phase (not quad-phase) implementation |
| PGND1–PGND4 | Power ground return paths | Dedicated low-inductance GND connections per phase; PGND3/PGND4 tied internally to PGND1/PGND2 |
| FBP / FBN | Differential feedback sense inputs | Enables remote sensing at point-of-load; FBN connects to local GND, FBP to VOUT trace near SoC pad |
| SCL/GPIO3, SDA/GPIO4 | I²C bus interface or GPIO | FM+ compatible; supports 1 MHz clock; configurable as interrupt-capable GPIOs during I²C idle |
| CONF/GPIO0 | Configuration select / GPIO | Hardwired at boot to set I²C slave address; reconfigurable as general-purpose input post-initialization |
| IC_EN | Interface enable control | Activates digital core, bandgap reference, and oscillator; does not gate power stage - enables sequenced startup |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-phase interleaved buck | Reduces input RMS current by ~30% and output voltage ripple amplitude by 2× vs single-phase, easing EMI filter design |
| Dynamic Voltage Control (DVC) | Adjusts VOUT in real time via I²C register write or GPIO edge trigger - essential for CPU/GPU DVFS in ADAS SoCs |
| Programmable soft-start | Configurable ramp time limits inrush current to <2 A during cold start, preventing input rail collapse in 12 V systems |
| Integrated protection suite | Auto-recoverable over-current (OCP), over-temperature (OTP), and undervoltage lockout (UVLO) - no external sense resistors needed |
| Remote differential feedback | Compensates for PCB IR drop up to 50 mΩ trace resistance, maintaining ±10 mV regulation at point-of-load |
| Configurable GPIOs | Five pins support interrupt generation, I²C address selection, and DVC mode switching - eliminates discrete logic in BOM |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-phase automotive buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPQ8633BGLE-Z | 40 V max input, 12 A continuous, no integrated DVC or remote sense; requires external resistor network for VOUT setting | Lacks I²C interface and GPIOs - unsuitable for closed-loop DVFS but lower cost for static-rail designs | Select when only basic 12 V-to-1.0 V conversion is required and system-level voltage adaptation is handled externally |
| TPS65917B1A1RSLR | Multi-rail PMIC with 3 buck channels (max 3 A each); supports DVC but no dual-phase per rail; smaller 7 mm × 7 mm QFN | Designed for infotainment SoCs with multiple low-current rails; insufficient peak current for single-AI-core use | Prefer for multi-rail, space-constrained telematics modules where rail count > current demand per rail |
Compared with MPQ8633BGLE-Z and TPS65917B1A1RSLR, DA9142-XXF71 uniquely delivers 20 A peak current in a dual-phase architecture with integrated DVC, remote sensing, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification - making it the only option for next-gen ADAS processors demanding both high current density and real-time voltage agility.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature specification for DA9142-XXF71?
The DA9142-XXF71 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, validated under AEC-Q100 Grade 1 conditions. Thermal derating begins at 85°C ambient, with power dissipation reduced linearly using θJA = 9.6°C/W (with heatsink). At 125°C ambient, the device limits output current to maintain TJ ≤ 150°C, ensuring reliable operation in engine bay-adjacent placements.
Does DA9142-XXF71 support true dual-phase operation or is it two independent bucks?
DA9142-XXF71 implements true interleaved dual-phase operation: phases are synchronized 180° out-of-phase with shared control loop, current balancing, and coordinated phase shedding. This is confirmed by the block diagram (Figure 1), pin assignments (LX1/LX2 active; LX3/LX4 marked "Do Not Connect"), and electrical specs listing "Dual-Phase Buck Electrical Characteristics" as a unified parameter set in Table 8.
Can DA9142-XXF71 be used without the I²C interface?
Yes - DA9142-XXF71 supports standalone operation. Default VOUT is set by OTP configuration at power-up; IC_EN enables the digital core, but DVC, GPIO control, and status monitoring require I²C. All protection functions (OCP, OTP, UVLO) remain fully active without I²C communication, and soft-start timing is configurable via OTP or GPIO strap.
What is the purpose of the CONF/GPIO0 pin on DA9142-XXF71?
The CONF/GPIO0 pin on DA9142-XXF71 serves dual roles: during power-up, its voltage level (high/low) selects one of two factory-programmed I²C slave addresses (0x60 or 0x61), enabling multiple DA9142-XXF71 devices on the same bus. After initialization, it becomes a configurable GPIO supporting interrupt input or DVC trigger - verified in Table 1 (Pin Description) and Section 6.3.2 (GPIO).
How does DA9142-XXF71 achieve ±1% output voltage accuracy?
DA9142-XXF71 achieves ±1% static output voltage accuracy through a combination of trimmed internal reference (±0.5%), precision resistor ladder for DAC-based VOUT setting, and differential remote sensing (FBP/FBN) that compensates for PCB trace resistance. This accuracy holds across input voltage (2.8–5.5 V), temperature (−40°C to +125°C), and load (0–13 A), as specified in Table 8 under "VOUT_ACC" with VOUT ≥ 1 V condition.
