Product details
Overview
LP87561IRNFTQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive buck converter IC with four integrated high-side/low-side FETs, configured exclusively as a single 4-phase 16-A output (4 A per phase), supporting 0.6 V to 3.36 V programmable output voltage, 2 MHz fixed switching frequency, and I²C-controlled slew-rate (0.47–10 mV/µs). It delivers power to advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) processors requiring tight transient response and multiphase current sharing.
For engineers reviewing the LP87561IRNFTQ1 datasheet, LP87561IRNFTQ1 pinout, LP87561IRNFTQ1 application, or LP87561IRNFTQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4-phase-only topology, remote differential sensing capability for point-of-load accuracy, programmable phase-add/shed thresholds (IADD/ISHED), and automotive-grade thermal warning/shutdown behavior at 125°C/150°C.
Technical Context
The LP87561IRNFTQ1 implements automatic PWM-to-PFM mode transition with phase shedding (1→2→3→4 phases) based on load current thresholds (0.7 A, 1.5 A, 2.4 A), enabling >90% efficiency across 1 mA–16 A output range. Its internal PLL supports external clock synchronization (1–24 MHz) and spread-spectrum operation to reduce EMI in sensitive radar and camera modules.
It integrates four independent buck regulators with configurable GPIOs (EN1/EN2/EN3), interrupt masking, PGOOD programmability, and real-time load-current measurement (20.47 A full-scale, ±10% accuracy) without external sense resistors-critical for closed-loop power sequencing in infotainment SoCs.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-phase buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LP87562IRNFTQ1 | Configurable as 3-phase + 1-phase outputs (not 4-phase only); identical pinout and I²C register map | Supports mixed-rail systems (e.g., 1.0 V core + 3.3 V I/O) where LP87561IRNFTQ1's fixed 4-phase architecture is insufficient | Select LP87562IRNFTQ1 when dual independent rails are required; LP87561IRNFTQ1 remains optimal for single high-current rail |
| TPS65917B1RSLR | 7-channel PMIC with 3 buck converters (max 3 A each), no 4-phase capability; uses same VQFN-48 package but different pinout | Targets lower-power infotainment SoCs needing multiple independent rails rather than ultra-high-current single rail | Choose TPS65917B1RSLR for multi-rail, lower-current (<3 A/rail) designs; LP87561IRNFTQ1 is superior for >12 A single-rail ADAS loads |
Compared with LP87562IRNFTQ1 and TPS65917B1RSLR, the LP87561IRNFTQ1 uniquely delivers 16-A single-rail capability in a compact 4.5×4.0 mm package with hardware-managed phase control-making it the only option among the three qualified for high-current radar and digital cluster applications demanding minimal board space and maximum efficiency at full load.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current supported by the LP87561IRNFTQ1?
The LP87561IRNFTQ1 supports up to 16 A total output current in its fixed 4-phase configuration, with 4 A per phase. This rating assumes input voltage ≥3 V and proper thermal management - at 2.8 V ≤ VIN < 3 V, max output drops to 12 A due to reduced headroom. The device enforces forward current limits (1.5–5 A per phase) and thermal shutdown (150°C) to protect against overload conditions.
Does the LP87561IRNFTQ1 support external clock synchronization?
Yes, the LP87561IRNFTQ1 supports external clock synchronization via the CLKIN pin, accepting input frequencies from 1 MHz to 24 MHz with ±30% accuracy tolerance. When enabled, the internal PLL locks to the external clock, allowing system-wide timing alignment to reduce beat-frequency EMI - a critical feature for radar and camera modules co-located on the same PCB.
Can the LP87561IRNFTQ1 be used in non-automotive applications?
While the LP87561IRNFTQ1 is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified (–40°C to +125°C ambient) and optimized for automotive use, its electrical specifications - including 2.8–5.5 V input, 0.6–3.36 V output, and 2 MHz switching - are technically valid for industrial or computing applications. However, TI does not guarantee non-automotive qualification, and users must validate reliability, ESD robustness, and thermal performance in their specific environment.
How does the LP87561IRNFTQ1 handle load transients?
The LP87561IRNFTQ1 achieves ±40 mV load-step response for 0.1–8 A transitions (1-µs edge) in 4-phase mode using hardware-based phase shedding/addition and adaptive loop compensation. Its remote differential sensing (FB_Bx + complementary ground sense) corrects for PCB IR drop, maintaining output regulation accuracy within ±2% even under dynamic loads typical of ADAS SoCs during frame processing bursts.
Is the LP87561IRNFTQ1 pin-compatible with other LP8756x-Q1 variants?
No, the LP87561IRNFTQ1 is not pin-compatible with LP87562–LP87565-Q1 despite sharing the same VQFN-HR-26 package. While pin count and footprint match, the internal routing of FB/VIN/SW pins differs across variants to support their distinct phase configurations (e.g., LP87562 uses separate FB paths for 3-phase + 1-phase rails). Interchanging them without layout revision will cause functional failure.
