Product details
Overview
P87561IRNFRQ1 from Texas Instruments is a quad-buck, 4-phase automotive-grade DC/DC converter IC designed for high-current point-of-load regulation in infotainment and ADAS subsystems. It delivers up to 16 A total output (4 A per phase), supports 0.6 V–3.36 V programmable output voltage with 0.5–10 mV/µs slew-rate control, and operates from 2.8 V–5.5 V input across –40°C to +125°C ambient.
For engineers reviewing the P87561IRNFRQ1 datasheet, P87561IRNFRQ1 pinout, P87561IRNFRQ1 application, or P87561IRNFRQ1 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed multiphase configuration capability, real-world automotive use cases, and two documented alternative parts with explicit functional and application-level differences.
Technical Context
The P87561IRNFRQ1 implements four synchronous buck converters configured exclusively as a single 4-phase output rail-unlike LP87562-Q1 (3+1) or LP87565-Q1 (2+2). Its phase-interleaved PWM operation at 2 MHz ±10% minimizes input ripple and enables compact passive filtering using 0.47 µH inductors and ≤22 µF/phase ceramic output capacitors.
Control is executed via I²C interface supporting Standard (100 kHz), Fast (400 kHz), Fast+ (1 MHz), and High-Speed (3.4 MHz) modes, with configurable GPIOs (EN1/EN2/EN3) enabling sequenced startup, voltage-level selection, and external regulator coordination. Remote differential sensing on FB_Bx pins compensates for IR drop between regulator and load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Configuration | Single 4-phase buck output (not configurable to 3+1 or 2+2) |
| Max Output Current | 16 A total (4 A per phase), limited by thermal shutdown at 140°C junction |

Pinout & Package
VQFN-HR (26-pin) package, 4.50 mm × 4.00 mm body size, with exposed thermal pad (AGND-connected) for enhanced thermal dissipation in automotive PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SW_B0–SW_B3 | Buck switch nodes | Four high-side/low-side FET outputs - require individual external inductors and local PGND routing |
| FB_B0–FB_B3 | Feedback inputs | Remote differential sense points - connect directly to POL for <±2% DC accuracy under load/line variation |
| VIN_B0–VIN_B3 | Independent input supplies | Not internally connected - must be tied together externally and locally bypassed per phase |
| EN1/EN2/EN3 | Configurable GPIOs | Support enable sequencing, dual-voltage selection, or control of external regulators/load switches |
| SDA/SCL/CLKIN | I²C interface + clock sync | Enable register-based configuration, telemetry readback, and external clock synchronization to reduce EMI |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Applications
| Infotainment Processor Core Rail | Digital Cluster SoC Supply |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Powers ARM Cortex-A7x or similar application processor cores requiring tightly regulated 0.8 V–1.2 V at up to 12 A peak. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary 4-phase buck regulator delivering low-noise, high-efficiency power with remote sensing to maintain ±1.5% voltage accuracy at the die. Use Value: Eliminates discrete phase controllers and external current-sense resistors while supporting dynamic voltage scaling via I²C. | Use Scenario: Supplies display controller and GPU in digital instrument clusters with strict transient response requirements. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-rail 4-phase converter providing fast load-step response (<±40 mV for 0–8 A step) and programmable soft-start to prevent display flicker. Use Value: Meets ISO 16750-2 pulse 4a/b requirements with integrated UVLO, OVP, and thermal protection - no external supervision needed. |
| Radar MMIC Bias Supply | ADAS Camera ISP Power |
Use Scenario: Generates clean 1.8 V supply for 77 GHz radar transceivers where PSRR and ripple directly impact RF noise floor. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: 4-phase buck operating in PWM mode with <3 mVp-p ripple at 16 A - uses interleaving to cancel input/output harmonics. Use Value: Achieves >75 dB PSRR at 100 kHz without additional LDO post-regulation, reducing BOM cost and board area. | Use Scenario: Powers image signal processor (ISP) in surround-view camera modules requiring precise 1.1 V and 1.8 V rails with synchronized startup.

Use Value: Enables deterministic power-up timing across sensor, ISP, and interface blocks - critical for pixel clock stability and frame sync. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-phase buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LP87562-Q1 | Configured as one 3-phase + one 1-phase output - not 4-phase single rail | Suitable for systems requiring independent 12 A + 4 A rails (e.g., SoC + DDR) | Select when separate voltage domains and independent sequencing are required |
| LP87565-Q1 | Configured as two independent 2-phase outputs - each supports up to 8 A | Optimized for dual-core processors or split-domain power architectures | Choose when isolation between power domains or fault containment is critical |
Compared with LP87562-Q1 and LP87565-Q1, the P87561IRNFRQ1 uniquely delivers maximum current density in a single 4-phase rail, simplifying layout and reducing component count for monolithic SoC applications - but lacks independent rail control or domain isolation.

FAQ
What is the exact multiphase configuration supported by the P87561IRNFRQ1?
The P87561IRNFRQ1 supports only a single 4-phase buck output configuration - it cannot be reconfigured as 3+1, 2+2, or four independent 1-phase rails. This fixed architecture is defined at silicon level and confirmed in the Device Comparison Table of the SNVSB22 datasheet. All four buck cores (BUCK0–BUCK3) are phase-interleaved into one output rail, with SW_B0–SW_B3 driving individual inductors referenced to shared PGND_B01 and PGND_B23 planes.
Does the P87561IRNFRQ1 require external current-sense resistors for load monitoring?
No, the P87561IRNFRQ1 integrates current measurement circuitry with 20 mA LSB resolution and <10% accuracy above 1 A - eliminating the need for external sense resistors. This feature is explicitly documented in Section 7.5 "Load Current Measurement" of the datasheet, where full-scale code corresponds to 20.47 A and measurement time is 45 µs in PFM mode or 4 µs in PWM mode.
How does the P87561IRNFRQ1 handle thermal protection, and what are the trip thresholds?
The P87561IRNFRQ1 provides two-tier thermal protection: a programmable die temperature warning (115–147°C depending on TDIE_WARN_LEVEL setting) and hard thermal shutdown (140–160°C). Hysteresis is fixed at 20°C for both. These thresholds are factory-trimmed and specified in Section 7.5 "Protection Functions". The device reports warning status via interrupt and shuts down autonomously if junction exceeds 150°C typical.
Can the P87561IRNFRQ1 synchronize its switching frequency to an external clock source?
Yes, the P87561IRNFRQ1 accepts an external clock on the CLKIN pin with nominal frequency range 1–24 MHz and ±30% tolerance. Valid clock detection includes 20 µs debounce and 600 µs internal synchronization delay before switching transitions to the external source. This capability is detailed in Section 7.5 "External Clock and PLL" and enables EMI reduction through deterministic clock alignment in multi-rail systems.
What is the minimum output capacitance required for stable operation of the P87561IRNFRQ1 in 4-phase mode?
For stable 4-phase operation, the P87561IRNFRQ1 requires ≥2000 µF total output capacitance (COUT-TOTAL) when slew rate is set ≤1.9 mV/µs, as specified in Table 7-1 "EXTERNAL COMPONENTS". This includes both local ceramic capacitors (≥10 µF/phase) and optional point-of-load bulk capacitance. Using less than 2000 µF may cause instability or violate transient response specifications under full-load step conditions.
