Product details
Overview
TPS54335DDAR from Texas Instruments is a synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with integrated 128-mΩ high-side and 84-mΩ low-side MOSFETs, delivering up to 3-A continuous output current from a 4.5-V to 28-V input. It features internal 2-ms soft-start, adjustable 50-kHz to 1.5-MHz switching frequency via RT pin, 0.8-V ±0.8% reference voltage, and current-mode control for stable regulation in consumer power supplies and industrial bus converters.
For engineers reviewing the TPS54335DDAR datasheet, TPS54335DDAR pinout, TPS54335DDAR application, or TPS54335DDAR equivalent, key selection considerations include its SO PowerPAD™ 8-pin package thermal performance, RT-resistor–based frequency tuning, monotonic startup into pre-biased outputs, hiccup-mode overcurrent protection, and compatibility with standard buck layout practices using external VSENSE feedback divider.
Technical Context
The TPS54335DDAR implements fixed-frequency peak current-mode control with cycle-by-cycle high-side current limiting (4.9 A typical) and low-side sourcing/sinking current limits (4.7 A / 0 A). Its error amplifier uses transconductance of 1300 µmhos and drives the COMP pin for external compensation, while slope compensation prevents subharmonic oscillation across duty cycles.
Startup behavior is controlled by an internal 2-ms soft-start ramp that overrides the 0.8-V reference until complete; the device supports monotonic startup into pre-biased outputs by inhibiting both MOSFETs until the soft-start voltage exceeds VSENSE. Overvoltage transition protection activates at 106% VOUT and resets at 104%, and BOOT-PH UVLO (2.1 V typical) ensures reliable high-side gate drive.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 28 V - supports wide-input industrial and automotive bus rails without external LDO pre-regulation |
| Output Current | 3 A continuous - enables single-chip 5-V/12-V/24-V distributed power conversion for mid-power systems |
| Switching Frequency | 50 kHz to 1.5 MHz - adjustable via RT resistor for optimization of efficiency vs. size (e.g., 384–576 kHz at 100 kΩ) |
| Voltage Reference | 0.8 V ±0.8% at TJ = 25°C - enables precise output setting down to 0.8 V with minimal drift over temperature |
| Quiescent Current | 2 µA shutdown, 310 µA non-switching - extends battery life in always-on standby circuits |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 42.1°C/W (SO PowerPAD) - requires minimal PCB copper area for thermal management at full load |
| Protection Features | Hiccup-mode OCP, thermal shutdown (160°C), BOOT-PH UVLO, OV transition protection - enables robust operation under fault conditions without external circuitry |
Pinout & Package
TPS54335DDAR is housed in an 8-pin SO PowerPAD™ package (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm) with exposed thermal pad connected to GND for enhanced heat dissipation. The PowerPAD must be soldered to a PCB ground plane using multiple vias.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input supply rail | Accepts 4.5–28 V; connects to bulk input capacitor and feeds internal regulator and high-side FET |
| PH | Power switch node | Drives external inductor; connects to BOOT capacitor and low-side FET source; critical for EMI layout |
| GND | Power and signal ground | Reference for all analog circuits; tied to exposed thermal pad for thermal and electrical integrity |
| BOOT | High-side gate drive supply | Requires 0.1-µF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor to PH; UVLO disables HS FET if voltage drops below 2.1 V |
| EN | Enable control input | Logic-high >1.21 V enables operation; internal 1.15-µA pullup allows floating-enable configuration |
| VSENSE | Feedback input | Inverting input of error amplifier; sets output voltage via resistor divider to VOUT (0.8 V reference) |
| COMP | Error amplifier output | Connects to RC compensation network; drives current comparator for peak-current-mode control |
| RT | Frequency set input | Connects to external resistor to GND; determines switching frequency per fSW = 55300 / RRT (kΩ) kHz |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous MOSFET integration | 128-mΩ HS + 84-mΩ LS FETs eliminate external diode, reduce conduction loss, and enable >90% efficiency at 3 A |
| Adjustable switching frequency | 50–1500 kHz via RT pin - allows trade-off between inductor size (high fSW) and conduction loss (low fSW) |
| Monotonic pre-biased startup | Prevents reverse current flow into powered outputs by disabling both FETs until soft-start voltage exceeds VSENSE |
| Pulse-skipping light-load mode | Disables switching when peak inductor current falls below 0.5 A, reducing IQ to 2 µA in shutdown |
| Integrated boot recharge diode | Eliminates need for external bootstrap diode, simplifying layout and improving reliability in high-duty-cycle applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54335ADDAR | Same silicon, identical electrical specs; DDA suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging - no functional difference | No application impact; used interchangeably in production where reel format required | Select TPS54335ADDAR only when automated SMT placement mandates tape-and-reel delivery |
| MP2335DJ-LF-Z | 3-A, 4.5–28-V input, but fixed 500-kHz fSW and no RT pin; 0.8-V ref ±1.5%; higher RDS(on) (150/100 mΩ) | Lacks frequency adjustability and has looser reference accuracy - less suitable for precision or noise-sensitive designs | Consider MP2335DJ-LF-Z only for cost-sensitive, fixed-frequency applications where layout simplicity outweighs tuning flexibility |
Compared with TPS54335DDAR, TPS54335ADDAR offers identical performance in tape-and-reel form, while MP2335DJ-LF-Z trades frequency adjustability and reference accuracy for lower BOM count - making TPS54335DDAR preferable for designs requiring optimized efficiency, EMI control, or tight output tolerance.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended switching frequency for TPS54335DDAR in continuous conduction mode?
The TPS54335DDAR supports up to 1.5 MHz switching frequency, but operation above 1 MHz increases switching losses and reduces efficiency at full 3-A load. For optimal thermal performance in continuous conduction mode, TI recommends ≤1 MHz with appropriate gate-drive strength and low-ESR output capacitors. The TPS54335DDAR datasheet specifies 1.5 MHz as absolute maximum, not recommended sustained operating limit.
Does TPS54335DDAR require an external bootstrap diode?
No, the TPS54335DDAR integrates a boot recharge diode, eliminating the need for an external component. A 0.1-µF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor must still be placed between BOOT and PH pins to sustain high-side gate drive. This integration reduces BOM count and improves reliability compared to controllers requiring discrete bootstrap diodes.
Can TPS54335DDAR safely start up into a pre-biased output voltage?
Yes, the TPS54335DDAR implements monotonic startup into pre-biased outputs by disabling both high-side and low-side MOSFETs until the internal soft-start voltage exceeds the VSENSE pin voltage. This prevents reverse current flow and ensures controlled ramp-up even when the output is already biased - a critical feature for hot-swap and multi-rail systems.
What is the minimum input voltage required for TPS54335DDAR to maintain regulation?
The TPS54335DDAR requires a minimum input voltage of 4.5 V to operate within specification. Its input UVLO rising threshold is 4.5 V (typical), with 180-mV hysteresis, meaning it remains enabled down to 4.32 V before disabling. Below 4.5 V, the device may not sustain regulation or deliver full 3-A output, especially at elevated temperatures or high duty cycles.
How does the RT pin on TPS54335DDAR determine switching frequency?
The RT pin on TPS54335DDAR sets switching frequency by connecting an external resistor to GND. Frequency is calculated as fSW ≈ 55300 / RRT (kΩ) kHz - e.g., 100 kΩ yields ~553 kHz. This relationship is validated across temperature and input voltage; the TPS54335DDAR datasheet provides curves confirming stability from –40°C to 125°C with proper resistor tolerance.
