Product details
Overview
TPS54336ADDA 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 across a 4.5-V to 28-V input range. It features fixed 340-kHz switching frequency, adjustable soft-start via SS pin, 0.8-V ±0.8% reference voltage, and monotonic startup into pre-biased outputs-used in industrial power supplies and consumer electronics requiring stable 5-V/12-V rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS54336ADDA datasheet, TPS54336ADDA pinout, TPS54336ADDA application, or TPS54336ADDA equivalent, key selection criteria include its SO PowerPAD™ 8-pin package, BOOT-PH UVLO threshold (2.1 V), hiccup-mode overcurrent protection, thermal shutdown at 160°C, and compatibility with standard buck compensation networks using the COMP pin.
Technical Context
The TPS54336ADDA implements fixed-frequency peak current-mode control with internal oscillator set to 340 kHz (±20%), enabling predictable EMI behavior and simplified filter design. Its error amplifier (1300 µmhos transconductance) compares VSENSE against the lower of the internal 0.8-V reference or SS pin voltage, supporting tracking and soft-start functions.
Startup is monotonic into pre-biased outputs by inhibiting both MOSFETs until SS voltage exceeds VSENSE. The integrated boot regulator charges the BOOT–PH capacitor (0.1 µF recommended), and BOOT-PH UVLO (2.1 V typical) disables the high-side FET if bootstrap voltage collapses-ensuring gate-drive integrity without external diodes.
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 pre-regulation |
| Output Current | 3 A continuous - enables single-chip solutions for mid-power applications like STB or smart meters |
| Switching Frequency | 340 kHz (typical) - balances efficiency, size, and EMI for cost-sensitive 5-V/12-V distributed supplies |
| Voltage Reference | 0.8 V ±0.8% - ensures tight output regulation (e.g., ±10 mV at 1.2 V out) across temperature |
| Shutdown Quiescent Current | 2 µA - minimizes battery drain in always-on systems during standby |
| High-Side RDS(on) | 128 mΩ @ VBOOT-PH = 6 V - reduces conduction loss and thermal stress at full load |
| Soft-Start Control | SS pin with 2.3 µA charge current - allows programmable ramp time (e.g., 10 ms with 0.01 µF) |
Pinout & Package
TPS54336ADDA is housed in an 8-pin SO PowerPAD™ package (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm) with exposed thermal pad soldered to PCB ground for enhanced thermal performance (RθJB = 31.8°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Accepts 4.5–28 V supply; connects to bulk input capacitor and feeds internal regulators |
| PH | Power switch node | Source of high-side MOSFET; connects to inductor and BOOT capacitor; carries high di/dt |
| GND | Ground reference | Three dedicated GND pins (pins 4, 4, 4) - low-impedance return path for power and signal grounds |
| BOOT | Bootstrap supply | Drives high-side gate via external 0.1-µF ceramic cap to PH; monitored for UVLO (2.1 V) |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input (1.21 V threshold); internal pullup enables default operation when floating |
| VSENSE | Feedback input | Inverting input of error amp; sets output voltage via resistor divider (e.g., 10 kΩ + 10 kΩ for 1.6 V) |
| COMP | Compensation node | Error amp output; connects to Type II/III network for loop stability and transient response tuning |
| SS | Soft-start/tracking | Overrides internal reference during startup; external capacitor sets rise time (2.3 µA charge current) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated dual MOSFETs | 128-mΩ high-side + 84-mΩ low-side eliminates external diode and reduces BOM count by ≥2 components |
| Pulse-skipping light-load mode | Disables switching below 0.5-A peak inductor current - improves efficiency at <10% load without audible noise |
| Hiccup-mode overcurrent protection | Shuts down for 512 cycles on fault, then attempts restart - prevents thermal runaway during sustained overload |
| Monotonic pre-biased startup | Blocks both FETs until SS > VSENSE - avoids reverse current and output voltage collapse on hot-plug rails |
| Overvoltage transition protection | Disables high-side FET if VOUT > 106% nominal - clamps overshoot during line/load transients or soft-start exit |

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 | Adjustable 50–1500 kHz frequency via RT pin; fixed 2-ms internal soft-start | Suitable where EMI tuning or higher switching frequency is required to shrink magnetics | Select TPS54335ADDAR when board space is constrained and frequency optimization is needed |
| MP2336HG-LL-Z | 3.3-V to 36-V input; 3-A output; 500-kHz fixed frequency; no SS pin; different pinout (QFN-10) | Preferred for wider VIN range and higher ambient temperature (TJ max = 150°C same) | Choose MP2336HG-LL-Z only if input exceeds 28 V or SO package is not required |
Compared with TPS54336ADDA, TPS54335ADDAR offers frequency flexibility but lacks SS pin adjustability, while MP2336HG-LL-Z extends input range but requires PCB redesign due to QFN-10 footprint and missing soft-start control-making TPS54336ADDA optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally managed 4.5–28-V designs needing precise startup control.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the TPS54336ADDA?
The TPS54336ADDA delivers up to 3 A of continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (TJ ≤ 125°C, proper PCB thermal design). This rating assumes use of the SO PowerPAD™ package with adequate copper area and vias to the internal ground plane, as specified in the thermal metrics (RθJB = 31.8°C/W). Derating is required above 85°C ambient.
How does the SS pin function in the TPS54336ADDA?
The SS pin in the TPS54336ADDA serves as the soft-start and tracking input. An external capacitor to ground sets the output voltage ramp time via a 2.3-µA internal current source. During startup, the device regulates to the lower of the internal 0.8-V reference or the SS pin voltage-enabling controlled rise times and voltage tracking in multi-rail systems. The TPS54336ADDA does not have an internal soft-start timer like the TPS54335A.
What is the purpose of the BOOT–PH UVLO threshold in the TPS54336ADDA?
The BOOT–PH UVLO threshold (2.1 V typical) in the TPS54336ADDA monitors the bootstrap capacitor voltage. If the voltage between BOOT and PH falls below this threshold, the high-side MOSFET is disabled and the low-side MOSFET is turned on to recharge the capacitor. This prevents shoot-through and ensures reliable gate drive for the high-side FET across all operating conditions-including low-duty-cycle and cold-crank scenarios.
Can the TPS54336ADDA operate with a pre-biased output voltage?
Yes, the TPS54336ADDA supports monotonic startup into pre-biased outputs. It achieves this by holding both the high-side and low-side MOSFETs off until the voltage on the SS pin exceeds the voltage on the VSENSE pin. This prevents reverse current flow through the low-side FET and avoids output voltage collapse-a critical feature for hot-swap and redundant power architectures.
What are the key differences between the TPS54336ADDA and TPS54335ADDAR?
The TPS54336ADDA uses a fixed 340-kHz switching frequency and adjustable soft-start via the SS pin, while the TPS54335ADDAR offers 50–1500 kHz frequency adjustment via the RT pin and a fixed 2-ms internal soft-start. Both share identical SO PowerPAD™ packaging, 3-A output, and 4.5–28-V input range-but the TPS54336ADDA is optimized for EMI predictability and startup control, whereas the TPS54335ADDAR prioritizes design flexibility in magnetics selection.
