Product details
Overview
TPS54613PWPR from Texas Instruments is a 3-V to 6-V input, 6-A synchronous buck PWM converter with integrated 30-mΩ high- and low-side MOSFETs, fixed 1.5-V output voltage (±2.0% over temperature/load), internal compensation, and 350/550 kHz or adjustable 280–700 kHz switching frequency - designed for point-of-load regulation in FPGAs, ASICs, and microprocessors.
For engineers reviewing the TPS54613PWPR datasheet, TPS54613PWPR pinout, TPS54613PWPR application, or TPS54613PWPR equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed thermal and efficiency behavior at 6 A, and real-world alternative selection guidance - all grounded in TI's SLVS400D revision January 2015 official documentation.
Technical Context
The TPS54613PWPR implements a voltage-mode synchronous buck topology with an internally compensated error amplifier (26 dB open-loop gain, 3–5 MHz unity-gain bandwidth), adaptive dead-time control to prevent shoot-through, and cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting with 100 ns leading-edge blanking. Its UVLO circuit enforces 2.95 V startup and 2.8 V shutdown with 0.16 V hysteresis.
Switching frequency is selectable via FSEL pin (350 kHz or 550 kHz) or externally set using RT-to-AGND resistor (280–700 kHz); the oscillator ramp has 1 V peak-to-peak amplitude and 0.75 V valley. The device operates in continuous conduction mode (CCM) across full 0–6 A load range and supports both sourcing and sinking output current during transients.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3.0 V to 6.0 V - supports direct regulation from common intermediate rails (e.g., 3.3 V, 5 V) without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage | 1.5 V ±2.0% (−40°C to 125°C, 0–6 A) - precision fixed output for 1.5-V logic domains in FPGAs and DSPs. |
| Continuous Output Current | 6 A - sustained delivery without derating under typical PCB layout with PowerPAD™ thermal pad soldered. |
| Switching Frequency | 350 kHz / 550 kHz (FSEL-controlled) or 280–700 kHz (RT-resistor-adjustable) - enables optimization of size vs. efficiency vs. EMI. |
| Power MOSFET rDS(on) | 36–65 mΩ (high-side, VI = 3 V) and 26–47 mΩ (low-side, VI = 6 V) - low conduction loss enabling >90% efficiency at 5 VIN/1.5 VOUT/6 A. |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 18.2 °C/W (with soldered PowerPAD™) - enables operation up to 125°C junction temperature with minimal heatsinking. |
| Current Limit Threshold | 7.2–10 A (VI = 3 V) or 10–12 A (VI = 6 V) - robust overload protection with fast 200 ns response time. |
Pinout & Package
TPS54613PWPR is housed in a thermally enhanced 28-pin HTSSOP (PWP) package with exposed PowerPAD™ thermal pad - requires soldering the pad to a large copper area on PCB for optimal thermal performance and current handling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AGND (Pin 1) | Analog ground reference | Return for SS/ENA capacitor, VBIAS bypass, RT/FSEL bias - must be connected to PowerPAD™ and isolated from noisy PGND planes. |
| VSENSE (Pin 2) | Error amplifier inverting input | Direct connection to output voltage feedback node - determines regulation accuracy and transient response stability. |
| PWRGD (Pin 4) | Open-drain power-good indicator | Pulled low if VSENSE < 90% VREF, VIN < UVLO, or SS/ENA inactive - used for processor reset sequencing and fault monitoring. |
| BOOT (Pin 5) | Bootstrap supply for high-side driver | Connects via 0.022–0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to PH - enables floating gate drive for N-channel high-side MOSFET. |
| PH (Pins 6–14) | Phase node (switching node) | Junction of internal high-/low-side FETs and external output inductor - high di/dt node requiring tight layout and short trace routing. |
| PGND (Pins 15–19) | Power ground return | High-current return path for low-side FET and input/output capacitors - must tie directly to PowerPAD™ and bulk capacitance ground planes. |
| RT (Pin 28) | Frequency-setting resistor input | Connect resistor to AGND to set switching frequency from 280 kHz to 700 kHz - enables EMI tuning and inductor size optimization. |
| SS/ENA (Pin 26) | Slow-start/enable control | Logic-enable input (1.2 V threshold) and external capacitor interface - sets soft-start time (5.6 ms internal for TPS54613) and prevents inrush current. |
| VBIAS (Pin 25) | Internal bias regulator output | Supplies 2.7–2.9 V to internal circuitry - requires 0.1–1 µF X7R/X5R ceramic bypass to AGND, placed adjacent to pin. |
| VIN (Pins 20–24) | Main input supply | 3–6 V input for power switches and VBIAS LDO - each pin carries portion of total input current; bypass individually to PGND with 1–10 µF ceramic. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54620RGYT | Same 3–6 V input, 1.5 V fixed output, but rated for 8 A continuous; uses 16-pin QFN with wettable flanks instead of 28-pin HTSSOP. | Better suited for higher-current upgrades or space-constrained layouts where thermal pad access is limited. | Select TPS54620RGYT when >6 A headroom or QFN assembly compatibility is required; not pin-compatible with TPS54613PWPR. |
| MP2315GJ-Z | 1.5 V fixed output, 6 A rating, 3–6 V input, but lacks PWRGD, SS/ENA, and RT frequency adjust; only 350 kHz fixed frequency. | Targeted at cost-sensitive, lower-complexity applications where power sequencing and EMI tuning are not critical. | Choose MP2315GJ-Z for simplified BOM and lower unit cost where full feature set of TPS54613PWPR is unused. |
Compared with TPS54613PWPR, TPS54620RGYT offers higher current capability and modern QFN packaging but requires PCB redesign, while MP2315GJ-Z sacrifices flexibility (no PWRGD, no frequency adjustment) for integration simplicity and cost - making TPS54613PWPR optimal for balanced performance, thermal management, and feature completeness in industrial FPGA/ASIC supplies.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the TPS54613PWPR over temperature and load?
The TPS54613PWPR delivers 1.5 V output with ±2.0% initial accuracy at 25°C and maintains ±2.0% regulation across −40°C to 125°C junction temperature and 0–6 A load range when supplied from 3–6 V input. This specification is verified per TI's SLVS400D datasheet Section 6.5 Electrical Characteristics and applies to all operating conditions within recommended limits.
Does the TPS54613PWPR require external compensation components?
No, the TPS54613PWPR features an internally compensated control loop optimized for standard 4.7 µH to 10 µH inductors and typical ceramic or polymer output capacitors. External compensation is neither required nor supported - simplifying design and reducing bill-of-materials count while ensuring stability across its full operating range.
How does the TPS54613PWPR handle thermal overload conditions?
The TPS54613PWPR incorporates thermal shutdown that trips at 135–165°C junction temperature (typical 150°C) and releases at 10°C below trip point. During sustained overload, it cycles between startup (governed by SS/ENA slow-start) and shutdown - protecting the IC and downstream circuitry without requiring external thermal sensors or intervention.
Can the switching frequency of the TPS54613PWPR be adjusted, and how?
Yes, the TPS54613PWPR supports three frequency modes: 350 kHz (FSEL ≤0.8 V), 550 kHz (FSEL ≥2.5 V), or externally adjustable 280–700 kHz via resistor from RT pin to AGND. For example, a 100 kΩ resistor sets ~500 kHz. All configurations maintain stable operation and are validated in TI's SLVS400D datasheet Figure 4 and Table 2.
What is the role of the PowerPAD™ thermal pad on the TPS54613PWPR package?
The exposed PowerPAD™ on the underside of the TPS54613PWPR's HTSSOP package serves as the primary thermal and electrical connection for PGND. When soldered to a large PCB copper area with ≥12 thermal vias, it reduces θJA from 40.5 °C/W (unsoldered) to 18.2 °C/W - enabling full 6 A operation at 125°C junction temperature and improving reliability in thermally demanding applications.
