Product details
Overview
TPS54340BQDDARQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive-qualified 4.5-V to 42-V input, 3.5-A synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with integrated 92-mΩ high-side N-channel MOSFET, Eco-mode™ pulse-skipping for light-load efficiency, 0.8-V ±1% internal reference, and adjustable 100-kHz to 2.5-MHz switching frequency. It delivers regulated power in vehicle GPS, ADAS, and 12-V/24-V industrial systems.
For engineers reviewing the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 datasheet, TPS54340BQDDARQ1 pinout, TPS54340BQDDARQ1 application, or TPS54340BQDDARQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 45-V load-dump survival per ISO 7637, 146-μA no-load quiescent current, BOOT-recharge FET for low-dropout operation, RT/CLK synchronization capability, and HSOP PowerPAD™ thermal package for automotive under-hood environments.
Technical Context
The TPS54340BQDDARQ1 implements constant-frequency peak-current-mode control with internal slope compensation to prevent subharmonic oscillation above 50% duty cycle. Its error amplifier features 350-μS transconductance during normal operation and reduced 77-μS gain during soft-start, with COMP pin serving as both error amplifier output and PWM comparator input.
It integrates a bootstrap recharge FET to sustain >99% effective duty cycle, enabling operation down to VOUT ≈ VIN(min) – IO×RDS(on) – VF, and includes overvoltage protection that disables the high-side switch until output falls below 106% of regulation. Frequency foldback activates during start-up and overload to maintain inductor current control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 42 V - supports 12-V and 24-V automotive/industrial rails; survives 45-V load-dump transients per ISO 7637. |
| Output Current | 3.5 A continuous - determined by thermal limits and on-resistance; validated across –40°C to 150°C junction temperature. |
| Switching Frequency | 100 kHz to 2.5 MHz - set via RT resistor or synchronized to external clock; enables optimization of efficiency vs. filter size. |
| Quiescent Current | 146 μA at no load - enables always-on subsystems without excessive battery drain in automotive applications. |
| Reference Voltage | 0.8 V ±1% - sets minimum output voltage; used with FB resistor divider to configure precise output levels (e.g., 3.3 V, 5 V). |
| High-Side RDS(on) | 92 mΩ typical - defines conduction loss at full load; impacts thermal design and efficiency at high current. |
| UVLO Threshold | 4.3 V rising, 4.0 V falling - internally fixed but adjustable via EN pin resistor divider for custom start-up behavior. |
| Shutdown Current | 2.25 μA max - ensures minimal leakage when disabled; critical for low-power sleep modes. |
Pinout & Package
TPS54340BQDDARQ1 uses an 8-pin HSOP (DDA) package with exposed thermal pad (PowerPAD™), measuring 4.89 mm × 3.90 mm, designed for high-power density and efficient PCB heat dissipation in automotive modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BOOT | Bootstrap capacitor node | Supplies gate drive for high-side MOSFET; requires 0.1-μF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor between BOOT and SW. |
| COMP | Error amplifier output | Connects to RC compensation network; controls PWM comparator threshold and regulates loop stability. |
| EN | Enable input with UVLO control | Pull below 1.2 V to disable; float or bias above threshold to enable; supports adjustable input UVLO with resistor divider. |
| FB | Inverting error amplifier input | Monitors output via resistor divider; compares to 0.8-V reference to regulate output voltage. |
| GND | Power and signal ground | Common return path; must be connected to exposed thermal pad for thermal and electrical performance. |
| RT/CLK | Frequency programming/sync input | Resistor-to-ground sets fSW; pulled above 1.55 V to enter PLL sync mode for external clock alignment. |
| SW | Switching node | Drain of internal high-side MOSFET; connects to external inductor and catch diode/capacitor. |
| VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 4.5–42 V; powers internal circuitry and high-side driver; includes 45-V absolute max rating. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Eco-mode™ pulse skipping | Reduces no-load current to 146 μA by disabling switching while maintaining regulation via controlled burst mode. |
| Integrated BOOT recharge FET | Enables >99% effective duty cycle and low-dropout operation without external diode, supporting VOUT up to ~VIN – 0.5 V. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for –40°C to 125°C ambient operation, HBM ±2000 V, CDM ±500 V - suitable for front-end automotive electronics. |
| Adjustable UVLO with hysteresis | EN pin supports custom start-up voltage (e.g., 9 V) and 325-mV hysteresis using two resistors, preventing brownout oscillation. |
| Overvoltage protection (OVP) | Disables high-side switch if output exceeds 106% of target; prevents damage to downstream 3.3-V/5-V logic during fault conditions. |
| Internal soft-start | 2.1-ms ramp time at 500 kHz - limits inrush current and eliminates output overshoot during power-up. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5143AQDPRRQ1 | 42-V, 3-A dual-channel synchronous buck with spread-spectrum EMI reduction; higher BOM cost; requires external compensation. | Targeted at multi-rail systems requiring lower EMI; lacks Eco-mode, higher 250-μA quiescent current. | Choose LM5143AQDPRRQ1 when dual outputs or EMI compliance outweigh single-rail efficiency and simplicity. |
| MPQ4333GQ-AEC1 | 42-V, 3.5-A monolithic buck with 150-μA quiescent current; fixed 2.2-MHz fSW; no RT/CLK sync or adjustable UVLO. | Optimized for space-constrained designs; limited frequency flexibility and no external clock sync capability. | Choose MPQ4333GQ-AEC1 for compact layouts where fixed high-frequency operation suffices and sync is unnecessary. |
Compared with LM5143AQDPRRQ1 and MPQ4333GQ-AEC1, the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 uniquely balances adjustable frequency, Eco-mode efficiency, and flexible UVLO tuning-making it optimal for single-output automotive subsystems requiring robustness, low standby loss, and design adaptability.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 can withstand during load-dump events?
The TPS54340BQDDARQ1 is rated for 45-V absolute maximum input voltage and explicitly designed to survive ISO 7637-2 load-dump pulses up to 45 V. This rating applies to transient conditions only; continuous operation remains limited to 42 V. The device's internal protection circuits remain functional throughout such events without latch-up or degradation, ensuring reliable operation in automotive front-end power stages.
Does the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 require an external bootstrap diode?
No, the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 does not require an external bootstrap diode. It integrates a dedicated BOOT recharge FET that automatically refreshes the BOOT capacitor during low-side conduction, eliminating the need for an external diode and reducing BOM count and layout complexity while maintaining high-duty-cycle capability.
How does Eco-mode™ affect light-load efficiency in the TPS54340BQDDARQ1?
Eco-mode™ in the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 reduces no-load quiescent current to 146 μA by entering pulse-skipping mode-disabling switching cycles when output regulation is maintained. This directly improves light-load efficiency, especially below ~100 mA, by minimizing gate-drive and switching losses while preserving output accuracy and transient response.
Can the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 synchronize to an external clock signal?
Yes, the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 supports external clock synchronization via the RT/CLK pin. When pulled above 1.55 V, the pin transitions from resistor-programmed mode to high-impedance PLL input, accepting external clock edges. The internal PLL locks within 78 μs, enabling precise timing coordination across multiple converters to reduce system-level EMI.
What thermal considerations apply to the TPS54340BQDDARQ1 in HSOP PowerPAD™ package?
The TPS54340BQDDARQ1 in HSOP PowerPAD™ package has RθJA = 42°C/W on a standard 2-layer board. Effective thermal performance requires soldering the exposed thermal pad to a minimum 100-mm² copper pour with ≥4 thermal vias. Junction temperature must stay ≤150°C; derating begins above 125°C ambient unless enhanced PCB cooling is implemented.
