Product details
Overview
TPS54286PWPR from Texas Instruments is a dual non-synchronous buck converter IC with two integrated 100-mΩ high-side N-channel MOSFETs, supporting independent or sequenced 2-A outputs across a 4.5-V to 28-V input range. It delivers regulated output voltages from 0.8 V to 90% of VIN, operates at 600 kHz switching frequency, and features current-mode control with internal compensation for minimal external components. It is used in digital TV power rails requiring tight sequencing and stable dual-voltage delivery.
For engineers reviewing the TPS54286PWPR datasheet, TPS54286PWPR pinout, TPS54286PWPR application, or TPS54286PWPR equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 600 kHz frequency, dual PWM outputs operating 180° out-of-phase, selectable overcurrent protection on Channel 2 via ILIM2, ratiometric/sequential startup mode controlled by SEQ, and thermal shutdown at 148°C.
Technical Context
The TPS54286PWPR implements current-mode control with internal slope compensation and a fixed-frequency oscillator running at 1.2 MHz (divided to generate 600 kHz PWM on each channel). Its dual PWM outputs are inherently 180° out-of-phase, reducing input ripple current and easing EMI filtering requirements.
Each channel includes an independent transconductance error amplifier (gM = 30 µS), a 0.8-V ±1.5% reference, and pulse-by-pulse overcurrent protection. Startup sequencing is determined by the SEQ pin state-ratiometric (floating), sequential Output 2→1 (SEQ = BP), or sequential Output 1→2 (SEQ = GND)-with soft-start time fixed at 2.1 ms per channel.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching frequency | 600 kHz - Enables smaller magnetics and faster transient response vs. 300 kHz variant (TPS54283). |
| Input voltage range | 4.5 V to 28 V - Supports wide industrial and consumer DC bus inputs including 5 V, 12 V, and 24 V systems. |
| Output current per channel | Up to 2 A - Sustained continuous load capability per output, limited by thermal design and PCB copper area. |
| Feedback reference voltage | 0.8 V ±1.5% - Sets output regulation point; enables precise resistor-divider-based voltage setting (e.g., 3.3 V, 5 V, 1.2 V). |
| Overcurrent protection (CH1) | 3.0 A typical - Fixed current limit; protects against short-circuit and overload on Output 1 without external sensing. |
| Overcurrent protection (CH2) | Selectable: 1.5 A (ILIM2 = GND) or 3.0 A (ILIM2 = floating) - Allows asymmetric load optimization and component scaling. |
| Thermal shutdown threshold | 148°C - Triggers automatic shutdown to prevent permanent damage; hysteresis of 20°C ensures safe restart. |
Pinout & Package
TPS54286PWPR is housed in a 14-pin PowerPAD™ HTSSOP (PWP) package with exposed thermal pad on bottom side, requiring direct connection to PCB ground plane for thermal performance and electrical stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PVDD1 | Power input for CH1 high-side MOSFET | Supplies gate drive and conduction path for Output 1 only; bypass with ≥10-µF ceramic capacitor to GND. |
| PVDD2 | Main supply for control circuitry & CH2 MOSFET | Enables UVLO (turn-on at 4.1 V), powers EN1/EN2 pull-ups, and supplies Output 2; requires local 10-µF bypass. |
| BOOT1 / BOOT2 | Bootstrap supply for CH1/CH2 high-side gate drivers | Charged from BP during low-side conduction; requires 22–82-nF capacitor to respective SWx node. |
| SW1 / SW2 | Switching node outputs | Drives external inductor; high dv/dt node requiring snubber and careful layout to minimize ringing. |
| FB1 / FB2 | Voltage feedback inputs | Connect to resistor divider midpoint; regulates output to 0.8 V reference; internal compensation eliminates need for external RC network. |
| EN1 / EN2 | Active-low enable inputs | Pull ≤0.9 V to enable corresponding output; internal 6-µA pull-up to PVDD2 if floating; supports independent or coordinated startup. |
| SEQ | Startup sequencing mode selector | Configures ratiometric (floating), Output 2→1 (BP), or Output 1→2 (GND); determines timing relationship between outputs. |
| ILIM2 | Channel 2 overcurrent level select | Ground = 1.5 A limit; floating = 3.0 A limit; enables optimized component sizing for asymmetrical loads. |
| BP | 5.25-V regulated bootstrap supply | Bypass with 4.7–10-µF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor; powers both BOOT1 and BOOT2 circuits. |
| GND | Signal and power ground | Must be connected to thermal pad; forms return path for all internal circuits and high-current switching paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual 100-mΩ high-side MOSFETs | Reduces conduction loss and eliminates need for external high-side switches; supports up to 2-A continuous output per channel. |
| 180° out-of-phase PWM outputs | Halves input ripple current magnitude and eases bulk capacitor sizing and EMI filter design in multi-rail systems. |
| Single-pin sequencing (SEQ) | Eliminates external logic or timers for ratiometric or sequential startup-critical for FPGA, DSP, and SoC power sequencing. |
| Internal compensation | Removes requirement for external Type II/III compensation network; simplifies design and improves production consistency. |
| 2.1-ms internal soft start | Prevents inrush current and output overshoot; ramp rate scales with final output voltage, ensuring synchronized regulation entry. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | 148°C trip + 20°C hysteresis prevents thermal cycling; allows safe recovery after fault removal without manual reset. |

FAQ
What is the switching frequency of the TPS54286PWPR?
The TPS54286PWPR operates at a fixed 600 kHz switching frequency, confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and device description. This is distinct from the TPS54283PWPR (300 kHz) and is factory-set-no external resistor or capacitor adjusts it. The 600 kHz frequency enables smaller inductors and capacitors compared to lower-frequency alternatives, improving power density in compact designs using the TPS54286PWPR.
How does the SEQ pin affect startup behavior in the TPS54286PWPR?
The SEQ pin on the TPS54286PWPR configures startup sequencing: floating enables ratiometric startup (both outputs rise simultaneously), tying to BP enables Output 2→1 sequential startup (~400 µs delay), and tying to GND enables Output 1→2 sequencing. This single-pin control replaces external timing circuitry and is validated in the Application Information section and Figure 17–19 of the datasheet. All modes use the same 2.1-ms soft-start ramp per channel.
Can the TPS54286PWPR support different input voltages for PVDD1 and PVDD2?
Yes-the TPS54286PWPR supports dual-supply operation where PVDD1 and PVDD2 may differ. PVDD2 powers the control circuitry and Output 2 MOSFET, while PVDD1 supplies only the Output 1 high-side switch. The datasheet explicitly states "The voltage on PVDD1 may be higher or lower than PVDD2" and confirms independent biasing. This allows flexible system-level power partitioning, such as using a dedicated 12-V rail for Output 1 and shared 5-V for control and Output 2 in the TPS54286PWPR.
What overcurrent protection options does the TPS54286PWPR provide for Channel 2?
The TPS54286PWPR provides two selectable overcurrent limits for Channel 2 via the ILIM2 pin: 1.5 A (when ILIM2 is tied to GND) or 3.0 A (when ILIM2 is left floating). This is documented in the Electrical Characteristics table under ICL2 and confirmed in the Terminal Functions section. Channel 1 has a fixed 3.0-A limit. This dual-level capability allows designers to optimize external inductor and capacitor ratings for asymmetrical loads without compromising fault protection in the TPS54286PWPR.
Is external compensation required when using the TPS54286PWPR?
No-external compensation is not required for the TPS54286PWPR. The device includes fully internal compensation, as stated in the Features list ("Internal Compensation") and confirmed in the Block Diagram and Application Information sections. The error amplifier and loop compensation components are integrated, eliminating the need for external RC networks on FB1/FB2. Designers must still select appropriate output LC filters per the Feedback Loop and L-C Filter Selection guidelines, but no external compensation components are needed for stable operation of the TPS54286PWPR.
