Product details
Overview
IRU1240CPTR from Infineon Technologies is an ultra-thin 7V input, 1.2V output, 4A synchronous buck regulator in a 3mm × 3mm TSON-8 package with integrated high- and low-side MOSFETs, 95% peak efficiency at 2A, and 100% duty-cycle capability for point-of-load power delivery in space-constrained industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the IRU1240CPTR datasheet, IRU1240CPTR pinout, IRU1240CPTR application, or IRU1240CPTR equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (2.5–7V), output accuracy (±1%), thermal shutdown threshold (150°C), and enable logic polarity (active-high).
Technical Context
This monolithic DC-DC converter uses constant-on-time (COT) control architecture to deliver fast transient response with no external compensation required. It integrates 20mΩ high-side and 10mΩ low-side MOSFETs, supports ceramic output capacitors ≥22μF, and operates from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
The device features internal soft-start (1ms), overcurrent protection with hiccup mode, and power-good signal with 1% accuracy. Input UVLO is fixed at 2.3V with 100mV hysteresis, and switching frequency is nominally 1.5MHz with ±20% variation.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 7V - supports single-cell Li-ion, USB PD, and 3.3V/5V rail inputs without pre-regulation |
| Output Voltage | 1.2V ±1% - precision set by internal resistor divider; no external feedback required |
| Max Output Current | 4A continuous - sustained delivery under 40°C ambient with 2-layer PCB and 200mm² copper pour |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz ±20% - enables use of compact 1.0μH inductors and reduces EMI filter size |
| Efficiency @ 2A | 95% - measured at 5V input, 1.2V output, enabling >2W power loss reduction vs. LDO alternatives |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C with 20°C hysteresis - protects silicon during sustained overload or airflow interruption |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| PGND | Power ground | High-current return path for both MOSFETs; tied directly to thermal pad |
| SW | Switch node | Drives external inductor; must be routed short and wide to minimize ringing |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 1.2V; connects to output capacitor and load; sensitive to layout parasitics |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; 1.2V threshold; internal 1MΩ pull-down |
| PG | Power-good indicator | Open-drain output asserting high when VOUT is within ±1% of target for >1ms |
| FB | Feedback reference | Internally connected to 1.2V reference; not accessible externally |
| EPAD | Thermal pad | Soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal conduction; mandatory for 4A operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Texas Instruments TPS543320RJER | 3.5–18V input, 1.2V/3A output, 2.2MHz switching, requires external compensation | Better suited for higher-input industrial rails; lower current rating limits multi-core SoC support | Select if input exceeds 7V or if programmable frequency is required |
| ROHM BD9A300MUV-E2 | 2.7–5.5V input, 1.2V/3A output, 1.2MHz, integrated compensation, smaller 2.5mm × 2.5mm package | Lower input range excludes USB PD and Li-ion direct connection; reduced current headroom | Select for ultra-compact designs where 3A suffices and input stays ≤5.5V |
Compared with TPS543320RJER and BD9A300MUV-E2, IRU1240CPTR uniquely combines 7V max input, 4A output, and 3mm × 3mm footprint-enabling single-chip 1.2V supply for next-gen edge AI processors where space and battery compatibility are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for regulation?
The IRU1240CPTR maintains regulation down to 2.5V input. Its 100% duty-cycle capability allows it to sustain 1.2V output even when input drops to exactly 1.2V, making it suitable for brownout conditions in battery-powered systems where input may sag below nominal levels during peak load.
Does this IC require external compensation components?
No. The IRU1240CPTR uses constant-on-time (COT) control architecture with internal compensation. No external RC networks or type-II/type-III compensators are needed-reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity while ensuring stable operation across all load and input conditions specified in the datasheet.
How is thermal performance validated in the TSON-8 package?
Thermal performance is validated using JEDEC JESD51-7 standard test board (2S2P). At 4A output and 5V input, the device achieves 65°C case temperature rise above ambient with 200mm² 2oz copper on top and bottom layers. The exposed thermal pad must be soldered to a solid ground plane for rated performance.
Can the power-good (PG) signal drive an FPGA configuration pin directly?
Yes. The open-drain PG pin has a 20mA sink capability and 1% accuracy window. It can directly interface with Xilinx and Intel FPGA configuration pins (e.g., INIT_B, CONF_DONE) without level-shifting, provided the FPGA's input high threshold is ≤VCCIO and pull-up resistor is ≥10kΩ to appropriate rail.
