Product details
Overview
TPS5110PW from Texas Instruments is a dual-output synchronous buck controller with integrated LDO controller, designed for low-voltage/high-current I/O power in notebook PCs and DSP systems. It delivers 0.9–3.5 V from the PWM-controlled buck stage (4.5–28 V input) and 0.9–2.5 V from the external-NMOS LDO stage (1.1–3.6 V input), featuring ±1% reference voltage accuracy, 300–500 kHz programmable switching frequency, and temperature-compensated overcurrent protection.
For engineers reviewing the TPS5110PW datasheet, TPS5110PW pinout, TPS5110PW application, or TPS5110PW equivalent, this device supports fast transient response in portable computing power rails, enables skip-mode efficiency optimization under light load, integrates dual independent standby control (STBY/STBY_LDO), and provides coordinated OVP/UVP/FLT latching across both regulators - critical for reliable multi-rail sequencing and fault containment.
Technical Context
The TPS5110PW implements two independent regulation loops: a high-speed PWM/SKIP-mode synchronous buck controller (SBRC) with 2.5 MHz error amplifier bandwidth and an LDO controller driving an external N-channel MOSFET via LDO_GATE with 1.5 mA sink/source capability. Both loops share a precision 0.85 V internal reference and monitor output voltage via INV and INV_LDO pins against ±7% power-good thresholds.
Current protection is resistor-less: SBRC uses temperature-compensated RDS(on) sensing via VIN_SENSE/TRIP with 13 µA nominal trip current, while the LDO employs a 50 mV current-limit threshold on LDO_CUR. Fault handling is unified through a single FLT pin with dual-source current (125 µA for OVP, 2.3 µA for UVP) enabling differentiated latch timing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range (SBRC) | 4.5 V to 28 V - supports wide-input notebook adapter and battery-derived rails without pre-regulation. |
| Input Voltage Range (LDO) | 1.1 V to 3.6 V - enables direct use of buck output or auxiliary supplies as LDO input for ultra-low dropout operation. |
| Reference Voltage | 0.85 V ±1% at 25°C - sets output voltage accuracy and protection thresholds; enables 0.9 V minimum output with tight tolerance. |
| Switching Frequency | 300 kHz to 500 kHz - programmable via CT capacitor; balances EMI, efficiency, and component size for portable designs. |
| Output Drive Capability | OUT_u: ±1.2 A; OUT_d: ±1.5 A - drives low-RDS(on) N-MOSFETs directly; supports high-current phases without gate drivers. |
| Standby Current | <10 µA (typ.) - achieved by grounding STBY/STBY_LDO; enables deep power-down for system-level energy management. |
| Overshoot Protection | LDO_OUT active charge-sink - prevents voltage hump during fast load-decrease transients in I/O rail applications. |
Pinout & Package
PW package: 24-pin plastic TSSOP (0.65 mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed pad (JEDEC MO-153), rated for −40°C to +85°C ambient operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INV | Inverting input (SBRC) | Feedback node for buck regulator; connects to resistor divider from VO1 to set output voltage and enable OVP/UVP detection. |
| INV_LDO | Inverting input (LDO) | Feedback node for LDO regulator; connects to resistor divider from VO2 to set output and trigger LDO-specific protections. |
| LDO_GATE | LDO gate driver output | Drives gate of external N-MOSFET; 1.5 mA sink/−1.4 mA source capability ensures fast turn-on/off for low-dropout operation. |
| OUT_u / OUT_d | High-side / low-side gate drivers | Direct-drive outputs for synchronous buck FETs; OUT_u includes bootstrap (LH/LL) interface; OUT_d referenced to OUTGND. |
| FLT | Fault timer capacitor node | External capacitor sets OVP/UVP latch delay; dual-source current (125 µA/2.3 µA) enables asymmetric fault response timing. |
| POWERGOOD | Open-drain status output | Asserts high only when both SBRC and LDO outputs are within ±7% of target and REG5V_IN > 4 V; supports system sequencing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto PWM/SKIP mode selection | PWM_SEL pin configures dynamic mode switching - maintains >85% efficiency at 10% load without external control logic. |
| Temperature-compensated OCP | ITRIP = 13 µA ±15% with 3400 ppm/°C coefficient - matches MOSFET RDS(on) drift, eliminating calibration resistors and improving overcurrent consistency across temperature. |
| Dual independent standby | STBY and STBY_LDO pins allow selective shutdown of buck or LDO regulator - enables flexible power-state partitioning in multi-rail systems. |
| Integrated overshoot protection | LDO_OUT pin actively sinks charge during fast load release - suppresses >100 mV overshoot spikes without external components. |
| Unified fault latching | Single FLT pin coordinates shutdown of both regulators using shared capacitor - ensures simultaneous fault containment and simplifies board-level fault reporting. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS51200DRCR | Single-channel 3-A sink/source LDO controller only; no integrated buck controller; supports DDR termination tracking. | Replaces only the LDO function of TPS5110PW; requires external buck IC for VO1 rail. | Select when DDR memory interface support or higher LDO current (3 A) is required, and buck regulation is handled separately. |
| TPS51216RUKR | Dual-output buck controller (no LDO); integrates 5-V LDO for bias; supports Intel VR12.5/VR12.6 protocols. | Targets CPU core voltage regulation with dynamic VID; lacks external-NMOS LDO flexibility and independent LDO feedback. | Select for Intel-compatible CPU power delivery where precise VID sequencing and 5-V bias generation are mandatory. |
Compared with TPS5110PW, TPS51200DRCR offers higher LDO drive but no buck stage, making it suitable only as a partial replacement; TPS51216RUKR provides advanced CPU-specific features but cannot replicate the TPS5110PW's independent LDO control and ultra-low-dropout capability for peripheral rails.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current supported by the TPS5110PW's LDO controller?
The TPS5110PW does not define a fixed maximum LDO output current - it depends on the external N-channel MOSFET selected and thermal design. The LDO_GATE driver provides ±1.5 mA (sink/source), enabling fast switching of MOSFETs with gate charges up to ~20 nC. In the reference EVM, the LDO stage delivers 3 A at 1.5 V, limited by MOSFET RDS(on), PCB layout, and heatsinking - not by the TPS5110PW itself.
How does the TPS5110PW implement temperature compensation for overcurrent protection?
The TPS5110PW integrates a temperature-coefficient circuit that scales the internal trip current source (ITRIP) at 3400 ppm/°C. This matches the positive temperature coefficient of typical N-channel MOSFETs' RDS(on), ensuring consistent current-limit threshold across −40°C to +85°C. The compensation occurs automatically - no external components or calibration are needed.
Can the TPS5110PW operate with only the LDO controller enabled while the buck controller is disabled?
Yes. The TPS5110PW supports independent control: grounding STBY disables only the SBRC (buck controller), while STBY_LDO remains functional. In this state, the LDO controller continues regulating its output, POWERGOOD reflects only LDO status, and LDO_GATE remains active. This allows flexible power-state management - for example, keeping peripheral rails alive while suspending main processor power.
What is the purpose of the LDO_OUT pin beyond being a feedback node?
The LDO_OUT pin serves a dual role: it is both the feedback input for the LDO error amplifier and the active terminal for overshoot protection. When fast load decrease causes output voltage rise, the TPS5110PW sinks current from LDO_OUT to discharge the output capacitor - preventing voltage humps exceeding 100 mV. This eliminates need for external active clamps or larger output capacitance.
Does the TPS5110PW require external compensation components for stability?
Yes - the SBRC loop requires external RC compensation between FB and INV pins to set phase margin and transient response. The LDO loop is internally compensated and needs no external network. For the buck stage, TI's EVM uses R01A/R01B (10 kΩ each) and R03 (18 kΩ) as part of the feedback divider and compensation network; values must be adjusted based on output capacitor ESR and desired bandwidth.
