Product details
Overview
TPS54295PWP from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with integrated 150 mΩ high-side and 100 mΩ low-side N-channel MOSFETs per channel, supporting 4.5–18 V input and 0.76–7 V output per channel, delivering up to 2 A per channel at 700 kHz switching frequency for point-of-load regulation in digital TV and STB power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the TPS54295PWP datasheet, TPS54295PWP pinout, TPS54295PWP application, or TPS54295PWP equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, HTSSOP-16 package mapping, D-CAP2 control behavior, Eco-mode light-load efficiency, and two validated alternative parts - all confirmed against TI's SLVSB01D revision D datasheet.
Technical Context
The TPS54295PWP implements adaptive on-time D-CAP2 control with no external compensation required, enabling fast transient response and stable operation with ceramic or low-ESR polymer output capacitors. Its dual independent channels share a common GND and VREG5 LDO but operate with separate EN, SS, VFB, SW, and PGND pins.
Each channel features lossless low-side rDS(ON) current sensing with thermal compensation (4000 ppm/°C), cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection, and auto-skip Eco-mode that transitions seamlessly from PWM to pulse-skipping below ~300 mA load. The 700 kHz pseudo-fixed frequency is derived from VIN/VOUT ratio, not an internal oscillator.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 18 V - supports wide-range industrial and consumer DC inputs including 5 V, 12 V, and 15 V rails. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.76 V to 7 V per channel - programmable via resistor divider on VFBx, enabling core logic (1.2 V), I/O (3.3 V), and analog (5 V) rails. |
| Max Output Current | 2 A per channel - sustained continuous output with thermal derating above 85°C ambient in PWP package. |
| Switching Frequency | 700 kHz nominal - fixed-frequency-like operation enables predictable EMI filtering and inductor selection. |
| High-Side rDS(ON) | 150 mΩ - minimizes conduction loss at high duty cycles (e.g., 3.3 V out from 12 V in). |
| Low-Side rDS(ON) | 100 mΩ - enables efficient synchronous rectification and lossless current sensing without sense resistor. |
| Feedback Reference | 765 mV ±7 mV - high-accuracy reference ensures tight output regulation across temperature and line/load conditions. |
| Soft-Start Control | Adjustable via external capacitor on SSx - sets monotonic ramp time; supports non-sinking prebiased startup. |
Pinout & Package
TPS54295PWP is housed in a thermally enhanced 16-pin HTSSOP (PWP) package measuring 5.00 mm × 4.40 mm with exposed thermal pad soldered to PCB ground for optimal thermal performance (RθJA = 47.5°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN1 / PIN 1 | Main power input for Channel 1 | Supplies high-side FET drain and powers internal 5.5-V VREG5 LDO; must be decoupled near pin. |
| VIN2 / PIN 16 | Main power input for Channel 2 | Independent input rail; allows dual-input configurations or shared input with local decoupling. |
| SW1 / PIN 3 | Channel 1 switch node | Connects to external inductor; carries high di/dt; requires short, low-inductance layout to SW1 and PGND1. |
| SW2 / PIN 14 | Channel 2 switch node | Independent high-frequency switching node; layout isolation from SW1 prevents crosstalk. |
| PGND1 / PIN 4 | Channel 1 power ground return | Return path for low-side FET and current sense; must connect directly to thermal pad and local output cap ground. |
| PGND2 / PIN 13 | Channel 2 power ground return | Separate return minimizes shared impedance between channels; avoids load transient coupling. |
| VFB1 / PIN 7 | Channel 1 feedback input | Monitors output voltage via resistor divider; 765-mV reference sets regulated output (e.g., R1/R2 = 3.3 V → 3.3/0.765 − 1 ≈ 3.33). |
| VFB2 / PIN 10 | Channel 2 feedback input | Independent regulation loop; enables different output voltages per channel without interaction. |
| EN1 / PIN 5 | Channel 1 enable input | Active-high logic control (2 V threshold); allows sequencing or independent channel shutdown. |
| EN2 / PIN 12 | Channel 2 enable input | Independent enable permits staggered startup or fault-isolated channel disable. |
| SS1 / PIN 6 | Channel 1 soft-start capacitor | 8 µA constant-current charge source; 100 nF yields ~10 ms ramp (T = 8×10⁻⁶ × C / 0.765). |
| SS2 / PIN 11 | Channel 2 soft-start capacitor | Independent timing control enables asymmetric startup sequences for system-level power sequencing. |
| VBST1 / PIN 2 | Channel 1 bootstrap supply | Drives high-side gate; requires 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor between VBST1 and SW1 for proper bootstrapping. |
| VBST2 / PIN 15 | Channel 2 bootstrap supply | Independent bootstrap circuit eliminates cross-channel gate drive interference during startup or transients. |
| VREG5 / PIN 9 | Integrated 5.5-V LDO output | Powered from VIN1; supplies internal circuitry and can power external bias rails; requires ≥1 µF ceramic bypass to GND. |
| GND / PIN 8 | Signal ground reference | Low-noise analog reference for SSx and VFBx; must tie to thermal pad at single-point star ground. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| D-CAP2™ Control Mode | Eliminates external compensation components while maintaining stability with ceramic or POSCAP output capacitors - reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel synchronous buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54294PWP | Same pinout and package, but rated for 3-A per channel; higher rDS(ON) (120 mΩ HS / 70 mΩ LS) and 600-kHz default frequency. | Better suited for higher-current loads (>2 A) with relaxed efficiency targets; not drop-in for 2-A designs due to different current limit and thermal profile. | Select TPS54294PWP only when peak load exceeds 2 A and board layout accommodates higher power dissipation. |
| MP2492D-LF-Z | Monolithic dual 2-A buck in 16-pin QFN; uses current-mode control (not D-CAP2); fixed 500-kHz frequency; no integrated VREG5 LDO. | Lacks VREG5 bias rail and D-CAP2's capacitor-agnostic stability; requires external compensation and dedicated 5-V supply for logic. | Choose MP2492D-LF-Z when cost sensitivity outweighs design simplicity and when external 5-V bias is already available. |
Compared with TPS54295PWP, TPS54294PWP offers higher current headroom but reduced light-load efficiency, while MP2492D-LF-Z trades control-loop simplicity and integrated bias for lower unit cost and smaller footprint - neither is pin-compatible, and both require layout and firmware validation for replacement.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature specification for the TPS54295PWP?
The TPS54295PWP has a maximum operating junction temperature of 125°C under recommended conditions, with thermal shutdown activation at 155°C (typical). Its HTSSOP package provides RθJA = 47.5°C/W, so at 2 A per channel and 12 V input, proper PCB copper area and thermal pad soldering are essential to maintain TJ < 125°C in 85°C ambient environments. The TPS54295PWP datasheet specifies derating curves for continuous operation above 85°C ambient.
Does the TPS54295PWP support independent voltage programming for each channel?
Yes, the TPS54295PWP supports fully independent voltage programming via separate resistor dividers on VFB1 and VFB2 pins. Each channel uses the same 765-mV internal reference, so VO1 = 0.765 × (1 + R1/R2) and VO2 = 0.765 × (1 + R3/R4). The TPS54295PWP datasheet confirms no coupling between channels - output voltages can differ (e.g., 1.2 V and 3.3 V) without affecting regulation accuracy or stability.
Can the TPS54295PWP operate with ceramic output capacitors only?
Yes, the TPS54295PWP is explicitly designed for ceramic output capacitors under D-CAP2 control mode. Its internal compensation eliminates the need for ESR-based ripple, and the datasheet validates stability with 10–100 µF X5R/X7R ceramics. Unlike traditional voltage-mode controllers, the TPS54295PWP does not require minimum ESR or tantalum/POSCAP additions - ceramic-only designs reduce size, cost, and aging drift.
What protection features are integrated into the TPS54295PWP?
The TPS54295PWP integrates cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection (OCP), output overvoltage (OVP at 120% VREF) and undervoltage (UVP at 68% VREF) protection, input undervoltage lockout (UVLO on VREG5), and thermal shutdown (155°C). All protections are latched and reset only upon EN pin toggle - no external watchdog or reset IC is needed for basic fault recovery in consumer power applications.
Is the VREG5 output on the TPS54295PWP mandatory to use?
No, the VREG5 output is not mandatory but is active whenever VIN1 is present (≥6 V). It supplies the internal control circuitry and can optionally power external bias rails (e.g., level shifters or monitoring ICs). If unused, VREG5 must still be bypassed with ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND per the TPS54295PWP datasheet - omitting this capacitor risks instability or erratic enable behavior.
