Product details
Overview
TPS54352PWP from Texas Instruments is a 1.2-V fixed-output, 3-A continuous synchronous buck PWM converter with integrated 100-mΩ high-side MOSFET and external low-side MOSFET/diode support. It operates from 4.5 V to 20 V input, delivers ±1% output voltage accuracy over load/temperature, features internal compensation, 250 kHz or 500 kHz fixed switching frequency, and 180° out-of-phase synchronization capability - used in point-of-load regulation for FPGAs and microprocessors.
For engineers reviewing the TPS54352PWP datasheet, TPS54352PWP pinout, TPS54352PWP application, or TPS54352PWP equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.2-V fixed output, thermal shutdown at 165°C, UVLO start threshold of 4.49 V, 16-pin TSSOP PowerPAD package, and compatibility with external low-side MOSFETs for efficiency optimization in industrial and embedded power systems.
Technical Context
The TPS54352PWP implements feed-forward PWM modulation with 8 V/V modulator gain, adaptive dead-time control to prevent shoot-through, and a true voltage error amplifier (60 dB open-loop gain, 2 MHz unity-gain bandwidth). Its internal slow-start ramps reference voltage over 1150 switching cycles, with programmable timing via RT pin configuration.
It supports bidirectional SYNC operation: outputs falling-edge signal 180° out-of-phase with PH when RT is grounded/floating; accepts external falling-edge sync input when RT is resistor-programmed. The device integrates undervoltage lockout (UVLO), hiccup-mode overcurrent protection (4.5 ms hiccup time at 500 kHz), and thermal shutdown with 7°C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2 V, ±1% accuracy over 100 mA–3 A load and −40°C to 125°C junction temperature. |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 20 V - supports wide industrial input rails including 5 V, 12 V, and 19 V systems. |
| Continuous Output Current | 3 A - sustained delivery without derating under typical PCB layout with PowerPAD soldered. |
| Switching Frequency | 250 kHz (RT grounded) or 500 kHz (RT floating) - fixed options eliminate external timing components. |
| High-Side rDS(ON) | 100 mΩ (typ.) at VIN = 12 V - enables high efficiency (>90% at 3 A, 12 V→1.2 V) and low thermal dissipation. |
| UVLO Start Threshold | 4.49 V (typ.) - prevents startup until input stabilizes above minimum operating voltage. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 165°C trip point with 7°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |

Pinout & Package
TPS54352PWP uses a thermally enhanced 16-pin HTSSOP (PWP) PowerPAD package with exposed thermal pad connected to PGND/AGND. The PowerPAD must be soldered to PCB copper for thermal performance and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 VIN | Input supply rail | 4.5–20 V primary input; requires local 10-µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pins. |
| 3 UVLO | Undervoltage lockout adjust | External resistor divider overrides default 4.49 V start threshold; internal 320 kΩ/125 kΩ divider. |
| 4 PWRGD | Open-drain power-good indicator | Asserts low during fault conditions (UVLO, overcurrent, thermal shutdown, slow-start, VSENSE out-of-range). |
| 5 RT | Frequency setting | Ground = 250 kHz; float = 500 kHz; resistor-to-AGND sets 250–700 kHz - also controls SYNC I/O mode. |
| 6 SYNC | Bidirectional sync interface | Outputs 180° out-of-phase falling edge when RT grounded/floating; accepts falling-edge sync input when RT resistor-programmed. |
| 7 ENA | Enable/disable control | Pulled high internally; <0.5 V disables switching and resets slow-start; no external pullup required. |
| 8 COMP | Error amplifier output | Internal node - no external connection permitted; drives PWM comparator and compensation network. |
| 9 VSENSE | Feedback input | Inverting input of error amplifier; compares output voltage (via resistor divider) to 0.891 V internal reference. |
| 10 AGND | Analog ground reference | Low-noise analog return; must be tied to PGND and PowerPAD to minimize noise coupling into control loop. |
| 11 PGND | Power ground return | High-current return path for LSG driver and internal MOSFET; connects to PowerPAD for thermal conduction. |
| 12 VBIAS | Internal bias supply | 8.0 V regulated output (7.5–8.0 V); powers internal analog circuits and LSG driver; requires 1.0-µF X7R/X5R ceramic cap. |
| 13 LSG | Low-side gate driver output | 100-mA capable driver for external n-channel MOSFET; enables synchronous rectification for >90% efficiency. |
| 14, 15 PH | Phase node connection | Switching node connecting to LC filter inductor; carries high di/dt current - layout critical for EMI control. |
| 16 BOOT | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Connects 0.1-µF ceramic cap to PH; supplies gate drive voltage for high-side MOSFET during each switching cycle. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 100-mΩ high-side MOSFET | Reduces BOM count and PCB area vs. controller-only solutions; eliminates external high-side driver design complexity. |
| 180° out-of-phase synchronization | Enables dual-phase operation with shared input capacitor, cutting RMS input ripple current by ~30% and reducing required input capacitance. |
| Internally compensated control loop | Eliminates need for external compensation components - simplifies design, improves stability margin across line/load/temperature. |
| Adaptive dead-time control | Prevents shoot-through by dynamically delaying high-side turn-on until low-side gate voltage drops below 1 V, and vice versa. |
| Hiccup-mode overcurrent protection | Disables switching for 4.5 ms (at 500 kHz), then retries - avoids thermal runaway while enabling automatic recovery after transient faults. |
| Thermally enhanced PowerPAD package | 42.1°C/W junction-to-ambient (with soldered pad) - enables 3-A operation at 70°C ambient without forced airflow or heatsink. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54356PWP | Fixed 3.3-V output; identical pinout, package, and feature set except output voltage and UVLO thresholds. | Used where 3.3-V rail is required instead of 1.2 V - no change to layout or external components beyond feedback resistors. | Select TPS54356PWP only if 3.3-V output is needed; not a drop-in replacement for 1.2-V requirement. |
| LM2678SD-1.2/NOPB | 1.2-V fixed-output buck regulator with 5-A rating, but uses external MOSFETs; no SYNC, no PowerPAD, larger SO-8 package. | Suitable for higher-current designs requiring >3 A or discrete MOSFET flexibility; lacks synchronization and thermal performance of PowerPAD. | Choose LM2678SD-1.2/NOPB only when 5-A output or discrete FET control is mandatory; expect higher board area and thermal management effort. |
Compared with TPS54356PWP, the TPS54352PWP offers matched thermal and synchronization capability but targets 1.2-V core rails rather than 3.3-V I/O rails; versus LM2678SD-1.2/NOPB, it delivers superior thermal efficiency and smaller footprint via integrated high-side FET and PowerPAD, at the cost of lower max current.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the TPS54352PWP over full load and temperature?
The TPS54352PWP delivers 1.2 V with ±1% output voltage tolerance across 100 mA to 3 A load current and −40°C to +125°C junction temperature, verified per Electrical Characteristics table on page 4 of SLVS519A. This tight regulation is achieved using an internal 0.891 V reference trimmed during production and a high-gain error amplifier. The TPS54352PWP maintains this accuracy without external trimming components.
Can the TPS54352PWP operate without an external low-side MOSFET?
Yes, the TPS54352PWP can operate with only an external Schottky diode connected from PH to PGND, as stated in the Features and Simplified Schematic sections. In this configuration, the integrated pulldown MOSFET supports light-load continuous conduction mode. However, using an external low-side MOSFET driven by the LSG pin improves efficiency - especially above 1 A - and is recommended for optimal thermal performance in the TPS54352PWP design.
How does the SYNC pin function on the TPS54352PWP when RT is grounded?
When the RT pin is grounded, the TPS54352PWP operates at 250 kHz and configures the SYNC pin as an output that generates a falling-edge signal approximately 180° out of phase with the rising edge of the PH pin. This enables seamless interleaving with a second TPS54352PWP or compatible device to reduce input ripple current. A 10-kΩ resistor to ground is mandatory on SYNC in all configurations, per Pin Assignments section.
What thermal performance can be expected from the TPS54352PWP in a standard 2-layer PCB layout?
With the PowerPAD soldered to a 2 oz. copper thermal pad (3″ × 3″, top/bottom planes, thermal vias), the TPS54352PWP achieves 42.1°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal impedance. At 3 A output and 12 V input, typical power dissipation is ~0.9 W, resulting in ~38°C junction rise above 25°C ambient - well within the 125°C max operating junction temperature. Performance degrades significantly without proper PowerPAD soldering.
Does the TPS54352PWP support adjustable output voltage via external resistors?
No, the TPS54352PWP is a fixed 1.2-V output device. Its feedback is internally connected to generate precisely 1.2 V; there is no VSENSE pin accessible for external resistor-divider adjustment. For adjustable-output alternatives in the same family, TI offers the TPS54350 (adjustable version), but it is not pin-compatible with the TPS54352PWP and requires different compensation design.
