Product details
Overview
TPS54110PWPG4 from Texas Instruments is a 3-V to 6-V input, 1.5-A synchronous step-down DC/DC converter in HTSSOP-20 PowerPAD™ package. It integrates high- and low-side MOSFETs (rDS(on) = 240–480 mΩ at VIN = 6 V), supports adjustable output from 0.9 V to 3.3 V (1% accuracy), and delivers up to 1.5 A continuous output current with fast transient response for FPGA core rail regulation.
For engineers reviewing the TPS54110PWPG4 datasheet, TPS54110PWPG4 pinout, TPS54110PWPG4 application, or TPS54110PWPG4 equivalent, key selection considerations include externally compensated loop design, selectable switching frequency (280–700 kHz), integrated power-good signaling, thermal shutdown protection, and PowerPAD-enhanced thermal performance in space-constrained point-of-load systems.
Technical Context
The TPS54110PWPG4 implements a voltage-mode PWM control architecture with a high-performance error amplifier (90–110 dB open-loop gain, 3–5 MHz unity-gain bandwidth) and externally configurable compensation network. Its adaptive dead-time control prevents shoot-through by sequencing high- and low-side MOSFET gate drivers with 300-mA source/sink capability.
Switching frequency is set via RT resistor (280–700 kHz) or SYNC pin logic level (350/550 kHz fixed), while undervoltage lockout (UVLO start = 2.95 V, hysteresis = 0.12 V) and internal/external slow-start (3.35 ms typical, extendable with capacitor) ensure controlled power-up. The device operates across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature with RθJA = 34.0°C/W.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3 V to 6 V - supports direct regulation from 3.3-V or 5-V system rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 1.5 A continuous - sufficient for mid-power FPGA I/O banks or DSP core supplies. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1% over line/load/temperature - enables tight regulation for sensitive digital loads without post-regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 280–700 kHz (externally set) - allows EMI optimization and inductor size trade-off (e.g., 6.8 µH at 500 kHz). |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 34.0°C/W - requires PowerPAD soldered to PCB copper for full 1.5-A operation at 125°C ambient. |
| Power-Good Threshold | VSENSE ≥ 93% of 0.891 V reference - provides reliable reset signaling for processors when output reaches regulation. |
| Current Limit Trip | 3.0–3.5 A (depending on VIN) - protects against short-circuit faults while allowing 2× overload margin for startup surges. |
Pinout & Package
TPS54110PWPG4 is housed in a thermally enhanced 20-pin HTSSOP (PWP) package measuring 6.50 mm × 4.40 mm with exposed PowerPAD for improved heat dissipation. The PowerPAD must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AGND | Analog ground reference | Connects to sensitive analog circuitry; must tie to PGND and PowerPAD with low-inductance path to minimize noise coupling. |
| BOOT | Bootstrap supply for high-side driver | Requires 0.022–0.1 µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor to PH to generate floating gate drive voltage for upper MOSFET. |
| COMP | Error amplifier output | Interface point for external Type-II/III compensation network; connects to VSENSE to close feedback loop. |
| PGND (11–13) | Power ground return | High-current return path for low-side FET and inductor; must use wide copper pours tied to input/output capacitors and PowerPAD. |
| PH (6–10) | Phase node | Junction of internal high/low-side MOSFETs; connects directly to output inductor and BOOT capacitor; high di/dt node requiring careful layout. |
| PWRGD | Open-drain power-good indicator | Sinks current when VSENSE < 93% Vref; used for processor reset, fault flagging, or supply sequencing with external pull-up. |
| RT | Frequency setting input | Resistor-to-AGND sets switching frequency (e.g., 100 kΩ → 500 kHz); required for external sync or adjustable operation. |
| SS/ENA | Slow-start/enable control | Logic-enable input (threshold = 1.2 V) and capacitor-based soft-start timing node; controls ramp rate of internal reference. |
| VBIAS | Bias regulator output | Supplies internal circuitry at 2.7–2.9 V; bypass with 0.1–1 µF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor to AGND near pin. |
| VIN (14–16) | Main input supply | 3–6 V input for power switches and bias regulator; requires local 1–10 µF low-ESR ceramic bypass to PGND pins. |
| VSENSE | Feedback voltage sense | Inverting input of error amplifier; connects to resistor divider from output to set regulated voltage (0.9–3.3 V range). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated high- and low-side MOSFETs | rDS(on) = 240–480 mΩ (high-side) and 345–690 mΩ (low-side) at VIN = 6 V/3 V - eliminates external switch losses and reduces BOM count. |
| Externally compensated error amplifier | 90–110 dB open-loop gain, 3–5 MHz unity-gain bandwidth - enables stable loop design with diverse L-C filter combinations for EMI or transient requirements. |
| Programmable switching frequency | 280–700 kHz via RT resistor or 350/550 kHz fixed via SYNC pin - supports EMI compliance and inductor size optimization without changing layout. |
| Adaptive dead-time control | Prevents shoot-through by sequencing MOSFET turn-on based on gate voltage thresholds (<2 V) - ensures robust operation across temperature and load conditions. |
| Power-good open-drain output | Asserts high when VSENSE ≥ 93% of 0.891 V reference with 3% hysteresis and 35-µs deglitch - provides reliable system-level power sequencing and fault detection. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54210PWPR | 2-A output rating, identical pinout and feature set except higher current capability and slightly higher quiescent current (5.8–9.6 mA vs 4.5–8.5 mA at 350 kHz). | Preferred where future-proofing for >1.5 A peak loads or higher efficiency at light loads is needed; same PCB layout. | Select TPS54210PWPR if headroom beyond 1.5 A is required without redesign; verify thermal margin at full load. |
| LM2678SDX-ADJ/NOPB | 1-A output, non-synchronous (external diode), fixed 260-kHz frequency, no PowerPAD, higher dropout and lower efficiency at 1.5 A. | Suitable only for cost-sensitive, low-density applications where 1-A limit and thermal derating are acceptable. | Choose LM2678SDX-ADJ/NOPB only for legacy designs or ultra-low-cost targets; not recommended for new 1.5-A designs due to thermal and efficiency limitations. |
Compared with TPS54210PWPR, the TPS54110PWPG4 offers tighter thermal footprint and lower quiescent current for 1.5-A applications, while LM2678SDX-ADJ/NOPB lacks integrated MOSFETs and PowerPAD, limiting its suitability for compact, high-efficiency point-of-load use cases.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the TPS54110PWPG4?
The TPS54110PWPG4 delivers up to 1.5 A of continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (TJ ≤ 125°C, proper PowerPAD thermal connection). Its current-limit threshold is 3.0–3.5 A depending on input voltage, providing safety margin for transient overloads. Full 1.5-A operation requires adequate PCB copper area for the PowerPAD to maintain junction temperature within limits.
Does the TPS54110PWPG4 require an external compensation network?
Yes, the TPS54110PWPG4 uses an externally compensated error amplifier - a Type-II or Type-III network must be connected between COMP and VSENSE pins. This design provides flexibility to optimize loop stability, transient response, and phase margin for specific output filter components (e.g., 6.8 µH inductor, 100 µF output capacitor), unlike internally compensated converters.
How is switching frequency configured on the TPS54110PWPG4?
Switching frequency on the TPS54110PWPG4 is configured via the RT pin (resistor-to-AGND) for 280–700 kHz operation, or via the SYNC pin logic level for fixed 350 kHz (SYNC ≤ 0.8 V) or 550 kHz (SYNC ≥ 2.5 V). External synchronization is also supported from 330–700 kHz by driving SYNC with a clock signal and setting RT for 80% of target frequency.
What is the role of the PowerPAD in the TPS54110PWPG4 HTSSOP package?
The PowerPAD in the TPS54110PWPG4 HTSSOP package serves dual roles: it acts as the primary thermal path to dissipate heat from internal MOSFETs (RθJB = 6.7°C/W), and as the electrical ground connection for PGND pins. It must be soldered to a large PCB copper pour tied to PGND to achieve rated 1.5-A output current and prevent thermal shutdown under sustained load.
Can the TPS54110PWPG4 sink current during light-load or transient conditions?
Yes, the TPS54110PWPG4 supports continuous current sinking - during output voltage overshoot or light-load conditions, the low-side MOSFET remains active to pull current from the output back to ground, maintaining regulation. This capability enables stable operation with ceramic output capacitors and improves transient recovery when load steps from high to low.
