Product details
Overview
S6BP401AY0SN1B000 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is an AEC-Q100 Grade-1 automotive power management IC for ADAS platforms, integrating a quad buck DC/DC converter (2.1 MHz nominal switching frequency, built-in 3 A FETs), dual LDOs, and a digital windowed watchdog timer. It delivers regulated outputs of 1.2–1.575 V / 2 A (DD1), 1.0–1.275 V / 3 A (DD2), 1.2–2.575 V / 2 A (DD3), 3.3–3.4 V / 1 A (DD4), and two LDOs up to 0.5 A, targeting camera ECU and radar sensor power rails.
For engineers reviewing the S6BP401AY0SN1B000 datasheet, S6BP401AY0SN1B000 pinout, S6BP401AY0SN1B000 application, or S6BP401AY0SN1B000 equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated current-mode buck architecture with load-independent soft-start, AEC-Q100 qualification, 6 mm × 6 mm QFN-40 package, and independent enable/control per channel for safety-critical sequencing in automotive vision systems.
Technical Context
The S6BP401AY0SN1B000 employs a current-mode control architecture across all four buck converters, enabling fast transient response under dynamic load steps typical in image sensor power domains. Each buck channel supports external clock synchronization (1.8–2.4 MHz) or internal oscillator operation (2.0–2.2 MHz), with built-in compensation and preset output voltage selection via internal resistor networks.
Its dual LDOs accept input from 2.97 V to 5.5 V and provide stable low-noise bias for analog front-ends or microcontrollers, while the windowed watchdog timer monitors system firmware execution with configurable timeout and reset assertion-critical for ISO 26262 ASIL-B compliant ADAS subsystems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 4.5–5.5 V for buck inputs; 2.97–5.5 V for LDO inputs - supports direct connection to automotive 5 V rail with robust brown-out margin. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.1 MHz nominal (1.8–2.4 MHz ext./2.0–2.2 MHz int.) - enables compact 1 µH inductors and reduces EMI in high-density camera modules. |
| Max Output Current | 3 A (DD2), 2 A (DD1/DD3), 1 A (DD4), 0.5 A (LDO2), 0.2 A (LDO1) - matches peak current demands of SoC cores, ISP, and SerDes interfaces. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1.5% over temp/voltage/load - ensures reliable logic-level compliance for 1.2 V/1.0 V core supplies in automotive-grade processors. |
| Watchdog Window | Digital windowed WDT with programmable timeout - prevents false resets during valid firmware delays while detecting lockup in real-time vision pipelines. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Grade-1 (−40 °C to +125 °C ambient) - qualified for engine bay–adjacent placement in forward-facing camera ECUs. |
| Package | 6 mm × 6 mm QFN-40 with exposed thermal pad - provides low θJA (~35 °C/W) for passive heatsinking in sealed enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6 mm × 6 mm QFN-40 with exposed thermal pad (EP), designed for automotive thermal reliability and PCB-level mechanical reinforcement via four corner pads (CP1–CP4).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN1–EN4, ENL1–ENL2 | Independent enable inputs | Allow precise power-up/down sequencing per rail - essential for avoiding latch-up in multi-rail ADAS SoCs. |
| FB1–FB4 | Buck feedback nodes | Internally tied to preset resistor dividers; no external resistors needed - reduces BOM count and layout area by ~8 components. |
| PG1–PG4, PGL2 | Power-good open-drain outputs | Assert active-low when output is within ±6% regulation window - used for inter-rail dependency monitoring and MCU reset coordination. |
| LX1–LX4 | Switch-node outputs | Drive external inductors directly; require low-ESR ceramic caps and careful layout to minimize EMI in 2.1 MHz switching. |
| WDI, RST | Watchdog interface | WDI accepts periodic strobes; RST asserts system reset on timeout or window violation - implements fail-safe firmware supervision. |
| VCC, GND, EP | Main supply and ground | VCC powers analog controller; EP must be soldered to solid ground plane for thermal and EMI performance - not optional. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 3 A FETs per buck channel | Eliminates need for 8 external MOSFETs and gate drivers, reducing board area by >25 mm² and simplifying thermal design. |
| Load-independent soft-start | Ensures monotonic voltage ramp regardless of output capacitance or load - prevents inrush-induced bus droop in multi-rail systems. |
| Built-in discharge resistors | Actively discharges outputs during disable to meet ISO 16750-2 transient recovery requirements for automotive restart scenarios. |
| Independent OCP, OVP, UVLO, TSD | Per-channel fault protection isolates failures - avoids single-point shutdown of entire ADAS power tree during localized overcurrent events. |
| Preset output voltages | Factory-configured VOUT options (e.g., DD2: 1.000–1.275 V in 25 mV steps) - accelerates design validation without custom resistor networks. |
Applications

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NXP FS26 | 3-channel buck + 3-channel LDO; includes embedded safety monitor (ASIL-D ready); no integrated WDT | Targeted at safety-critical domain controllers requiring FMEDA reports and diagnostic libraries | Select FS26 when full ASIL-D decomposition is required; S6BP401AY0SN1B000 suits ASIL-B camera nodes where WDT suffices. |
| Texas Instruments TPS659412 | Quad buck + dual LDO; 2.2 MHz switching; supports I²C configuration and telemetry; no AEC-Q100 Grade-1 rating | Designed for industrial and infotainment use; lacks automotive qualification and watchdog windowing | Choose TPS659412 for non-automotive designs needing programmability; S6BP401AY0SN1B000 is preferred for production ADAS with AEC-Q100 and WDT. |
Compared with NXP FS26 and TI TPS659412, the S6BP401AY0SN1B000 offers a balanced integration of AEC-Q100 Grade-1 reliability, hardware-enforced windowed watchdog, and fixed-function simplicity - making it optimal for cost- and safety-conscious ADAS camera and radar modules where configurability is secondary to qualification and fault containment.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature and thermal resistance specification for S6BP401AY0SN1B000?
The device is rated for junction temperatures up to +150 °C and features a typical θJA of 35 °C/W when mounted on a 4-layer PCB with 200 mm² copper pour connected to the exposed pad. Thermal shutdown activates at +165 °C (±10 °C), and full derating begins above +125 °C ambient per AEC-Q100 Grade-1 limits.
Can the S6BP401AY0SN1B000 support external synchronization across all four buck channels simultaneously?
Yes - the SYNC pin accepts an external clock signal (1.8–2.4 MHz) that synchronizes all four buck converters to a common switching edge, reducing beat-frequency EMI and simplifying filter design. The internal oscillator is disabled automatically when SYNC is driven, and no additional configuration is required for multi-channel lockstep operation.
How does the windowed watchdog timer differ from a standard timeout-based watchdog in S6BP401AY0SN1B000?
The windowed WDT requires strobes to occur within a defined time window - neither too early nor too late - preventing false resets during valid long-latency operations (e.g., flash writes) while still detecting firmware hangs. Standard timeout watchdogs reset on any missed strobe, increasing risk of spurious reboots in complex ADAS software stacks.
Are the preset output voltages factory-programmed or selected via external pins on S6BP401AY0SN1B000?
Output voltages are factory-programmed using laser trimming of internal resistor networks - no external pins, straps, or I²C commands are used for selection. The Y0SN1B000 suffix denotes the specific preset configuration: DD1 = 1.200 V, DD2 = 1.000 V, DD3 = 1.200 V, DD4 = 3.300 V, LD1 = 1.800 V, LD2 = 3.300 V, as confirmed in Infineon's ordering information table.
