Product details
Overview
LM63635DQPWPRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive synchronous step-down DC/DC converter delivering up to 3.25A output current, operating from 3.5V to 32V input (HTSSOP package), with pin-selectable 3.3V/5V/fixed or adjustable 1V–20V output, and 400kHz/2.1MHz switching frequency. It serves as primary power supply for infotainment head units requiring high EMI immunity and low quiescent current (23µA) in harsh vehicle environments.
For engineers reviewing the LM63635DQPWPRQ1 datasheet, LM63635DQPWPRQ1 pinout, LM63635DQPWPRQ1 application, or LM63635DQPWPRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its HTSSOP-16 PowerPAD™ thermal performance (RθJA = 43.1°C/W), 50ns minimum on-time for high VIN/VOUT ratios, pseudo-random spread spectrum for CISPR 25 compliance, precision enable thresholds (VEN-H = 1.5V ±75mV), and RESET flag timing (tRISE-DELAY = 3ms typical).
Technical Context
The LM63635DQPWPRQ1 implements peak-current-mode control with automatic PFM/PWM mode transition, enabling high light-load efficiency while maintaining tight regulation via internal compensation. Its integrated high-side (93mΩ) and low-side (61mΩ) MOSFETs support continuous 3.25A output with thermal shutdown at 163°C and hiccup short-circuit protection triggered after 128 overcurrent cycles.
It features pin-configurable operation: VSEL sets output voltage (3.3V/5V/adjustable), RT selects switching frequency (400kHz/2.1MHz/250–2200kHz), and SYNC/MODE enables FPWM, AUTO, or external synchronization. The device integrates a 5V internal LDO (VCC), 1V feedback reference, and open-drain RESET flag with 112% rising threshold and 93% falling threshold relative to FB voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.5V to 32V - supports full automotive battery range including cold-crank (6V) and load-dump (32V) transients in HTSSOP package. |
| Output Current | 3.25A continuous - sufficient for powering SoCs, display controllers, or radar MMICs without external current boosting. |
| Quiescent Current | 23µA - enables always-on systems (e.g., body control modules) to meet <100µA system sleep budgets. |
| Switching Frequency | 400kHz or 2.1MHz (pin-selectable) - allows layout optimization: low frequency for EMI-sensitive analog sections, high frequency for compact 14mm × 14mm designs. |
| Min On-Time | 50ns - enables 12V-to-1V conversion at 2.1MHz without pulse-skipping, critical for ADAS domain controllers. |
| EMI Performance | CISPR 25 Class 5 compliant with pseudo-random spread spectrum - reduces peak radiated emissions by spreading energy across ±5% bandwidth, easing FM-band filtering. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 43.1°C/W (HTSSOP) - enables 3.25A operation at +85°C ambient with standard 2oz copper and thermal vias to DAP. |
Pinout & Package
LM63635DQPWPRQ1 uses the HTSSOP-16 (PWP) thermally enhanced package measuring 6.4mm × 5.0mm with exposed PowerPAD™ (DAP) for direct PCB thermal sinking. Pin count is 16, with 2 NC pins (pins 14 and 16), 1 DAP (pin 17), and dual ground paths (AGND and PGND) for noise isolation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 SW | Switch node | Connects directly to power inductor; high dv/dt node requiring minimized loop area to reduce EMI. |
| 3 CBOOT | Bootstrap supply | Drives high-side FET gate; requires 220nF ceramic capacitor placed within 1mm of SW pin. |
| 4 VCC | Internal 5V LDO output | Powers internal logic; must be decoupled with 1µF capacitor to PGND; not for external loads. |
| 5 RT | Frequency programming | Tie to VCC for 400kHz, AGND for 2.1MHz, or resistor for 250–2200kHz; floating disables switching. |
| 6 VSEL | Output voltage select | Tie to VCC for 5V, AGND for 3.3V, or 10kΩ to AGND for adjustable output; latched at power-up. |
| 7 SYNC/MODE | Mode control | Tie to VCC for FPWM, AGND for AUTO (PFM/PWM auto-switch), or external clock for sync; internal 100kΩ pulldown. |
| 8 RESET | Open-drain power-good flag | Asserts low when EN = low or FB < 93% of target; requires external pullup for system sequencing. |
| 9 FB | Feedback input | Regulates to 1V (ADJ), 3.3V, or 5V depending on VSEL; leakage <100nA ensures accuracy with high-value dividers. |
| 10 AGND | Analog ground | Reference for FB, VSEL, RT, SYNC/MODE; must connect to system ground with low-impedance path. |
| 11 EN | Enable input | Logic-level enable with precision thresholds (VEN-H = 1.5V ±75mV); connects directly to VIN for simple startup. |
| 12, 13 VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 3.5–32V; requires 220nF bypass cap placed within 1mm of VIN and PGND pins. |
| 15, 16 PGND | Power ground | High-current return path for HS/LS FETs and input/output capacitors; connect to AGND at single point. |
| 17 DAP | Thermal pad / ground | Exposed die attach pad; must be soldered to large PCB copper area for thermal dissipation and EMI shielding. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM63625DQDRRRQ1 | WSON-12 package (3mm × 3mm), 36V max input, same 3.25A rating and feature set but no PowerPAD™ thermal pad. | Better suited for space-constrained modules where board area is premium and thermal load is lower than HTSSOP use cases. | Select when footprint size is critical and ambient temperature remains below +70°C; verify thermal performance with reduced copper area. |
| LM63615DQPWPRQ1 | Same HTSSOP-16 package and pinout, but rated for 1.5A output current and lower RDS(on) (HS: 75mΩ, LS: 48mΩ). | Targeted at lower-power domains like telematics or gateway ECUs where 1.5A suffices and efficiency at light load is prioritized. | Choose for cost-optimized designs with lower current demand; retains identical layout, BOM, and firmware compatibility. |
Compared with LM63625DQDRRRQ1 and LM63615DQPWPRQ1, the LM63635DQPWPRQ1 delivers highest current (3.25A) in the HTSSOP package with superior thermal performance (RθJA = 43.1°C/W) and full automotive-grade transient robustness (32V input), making it optimal for high-power infotainment and ADAS subsystems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM63635DQPWPRQ1?
The LM63635DQPWPRQ1 has a maximum input voltage rating of 32V when used in the HTSSOP-16 (PWP) package, as specified in Section 6.3 Recommended Operating Conditions. This rating accommodates automotive load-dump transients and ensures safe operation across the full vehicle battery voltage range. Exceeding 32V may cause permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
How does the RESET pin on LM63635DQPWPRQ1 function in system power sequencing?
The RESET pin on LM63635DQPWPRQ1 is an open-drain power-good flag that asserts low when EN = low or FB voltage falls below 93% of target (e.g., 4.65V for 5V output). It releases high after tRISE-DELAY (3ms typical) once FB stabilizes above 112% of target. This enables precise sequencing of downstream processors or FPGAs, and LM63635DQPWPRQ1's internal hysteresis (1.8%) prevents chatter during marginal conditions.
Can LM63635DQPWPRQ1 operate in forced PWM mode, and how is it configured?
Yes, LM63635DQPWPRQ1 supports forced PWM (FPWM) mode, which maintains constant switching frequency regardless of load. To configure FPWM, tie the SYNC/MODE pin to VCC. This disables automatic PFM entry at light load, ensuring predictable EMI profile and eliminating low-frequency output ripple-critical for noise-sensitive analog circuits. FPWM mode is confirmed in Table 7-1 and Section 7.3.1 of the datasheet.
What is the purpose of the DAP pin on LM63635DQPWPRQ1, and how should it be connected?
Pin 17 (DAP) on LM63635DQPWPRQ1 is the exposed thermal pad, serving as both electrical ground and primary heat sink. It must be soldered to a large, low-thermal-resistance PCB copper area connected to system ground. TI recommends ≥4 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter) under the pad to inner ground planes. Proper DAP connection reduces junction-to-board thermal resistance to 4.5°C/W, enabling full 3.25A output at elevated ambient temperatures.
Does LM63635DQPWPRQ1 support adjustable output voltage, and what is the required external configuration?
Yes, LM63635DQPWPRQ1 supports adjustable output voltage from 1V to 20V via the FB pin. To enable this mode, connect a 10kΩ resistor from the VSEL pin to AGND at power-up. Then use an external resistor divider between VOUT and AGND, with the FB pin connected to the divider midpoint. The internal reference is 1.0V, so VOUT = 1.0V × (1 + R1/R2). This configuration is validated in Section 7.3.2 and Figure 8-2 of the datasheet.
