Product details
Overview
TPS563212DRLR from Texas Instruments is a synchronous buck DC-DC converter delivering up to 3-A continuous output current across 0.6-V to 7-V output voltage range, operating from 4.2-V to 18-V input supply. It integrates 66-mΩ high-side and 33-mΩ low-side MOSFETs, uses advanced emulated current mode (AECM) control for fixed 1.2-MHz switching, and supports Eco-mode or FCCM operation in a 1.6-mm × 2.1-mm SOT-5X3 package for compact power delivery in set-top boxes and smart speakers.
For engineers reviewing the TPS563212DRLR datasheet, TPS563212DRLR pinout, TPS563212DRLR application, or TPS563212DRLR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 45-ns minimum on-time, ±1% reference accuracy at 25°C, 98% maximum duty cycle, internal compensation eliminating external loop components, and dual overcurrent protection with high-side peak and low-side valley limiting.
Technical Context
The TPS563212DRLR implements advanced emulated current mode (AECM) control-combining benefits of peak current mode and D-CAP2-to deliver true fixed-frequency operation at 1.2 MHz while enabling fast transient response without external compensation. Its adaptive loop bandwidth adjusts automatically across the full 0.6-V to 7-V output range.
Functional flexibility is achieved via MODE pin configuration: selectable Eco-mode (PFM at light load) or FCCM (forced CCM), plus configurable PG/SS pin function (power-good indicator or external soft-start). Precise enable threshold (1.15 V typ.) and VIN UVLO (4.0 V rising) support robust power sequencing in multi-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.2 V to 18 V - supports common rails including 12 V and 15 V without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.6 V to 7 V - enables direct regulation for core logic, I/O, and auxiliary rails in consumer and networking devices. |
| Max Output Current | 3 A continuous - sufficient for SoC cores, FPGAs, and interface ICs in STB, smart speaker, and surveillance applications. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.2 MHz (±8.5%) - fixed frequency enables predictable EMI filtering and compact magnetics using 2.2 µH–3.3 µH inductors. |
| Reference Accuracy | ±1% at 25°C - ensures tight output regulation critical for sensitive digital loads requiring stable supply margins. |
| Quiescent Current | 120 µA (Eco-mode) - minimizes standby power loss in always-on audio and IoT edge nodes. |
| Min On-Time | 45 ns - supports high step-down ratios (e.g., 12 V → 1.05 V) without pulse-skipping artifacts or instability. |
| Duty Cycle Max | 98% - enables ultra-low dropout operation (e.g., 5 V → 4.8 V) and improves efficiency near input-output crossover. |
Pinout & Package
TPS563212DRLR is housed in an 8-pin SOT-5X3 package measuring 1.6 mm × 2.1 mm with 0.5-mm pitch, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and thermal performance (RθJA = 116.7°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PG/SS (Pin 1) | I/O | Configurable as open-drain power-good indicator (with 112-µs delay) or external soft-start node (capacitor-based ramp control). |
| VIN (Pin 2) | Power | Main input supply for control circuitry; requires local decoupling to GND for noise immunity and stability. |
| SW (Pin 3) | Power | Switch node connecting to output inductor; carries high di/dt and must be routed with minimal loop area. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Ground | Common return for controller and internal circuitry; must be tied to low-impedance ground plane. |
| BOOT (Pin 5) | Power | High-side gate drive supply; requires 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor between BOOT and SW for bootstrap charging. |
| EN (Pin 6) | I/O | Enable control with 1.15-V typical rising threshold; supports adjustable VIN UVLO via external resistor divider. |
| MODE (Pin 7) | I/O | Configures light-load mode (Eco/FCCM) and PG/SS function via resistor-to-GND (0 Ω, 47 kΩ, 100 kΩ, or float). |
| FB (Pin 8) | Input | Feedback input for output voltage regulation; connects to resistor divider from VOUT to GND for precise setpoint control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Power Stage | 66-mΩ HS + 33-mΩ LS MOSFETs - eliminates external discrete FETs and drivers, reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Internal Compensation | No external compensation required - simplifies design, reduces footprint, and guarantees stability across 0.6–7 V outputs. |
| Dual Overcurrent Protection | High-side peak limit (5 A typ.) + low-side valley limit (4 A typ.) - prevents current runaway during overload and short-circuit events. |
| Non-Latched Protections | OVP (112% VREF), UVP (62.5% VREF), UVLO (4.0 V), TSD (150°C) - auto-recover after hiccup delay, avoiding system latch-up. |
| Pre-Biased Soft Start | Supports start-up into pre-charged output capacitors - prevents reverse current flow and ensures monotonic VOUT ramp. |
| Output Discharge via PG/SS | PG/SS pin pulls low during shutdown to discharge VOUT through external R3 - enables controlled rail collapse for sequencing compliance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS563211DRLR | Same SOT-5X3 package and AECM control, but rated for 2-A output and lower 60-mΩ/30-mΩ MOSFETs. | Suitable for lower-current applications where 3-A headroom is unnecessary; slightly lower thermal stress at full load. | Select TPS563211DRLR only if output current ≤2 A is confirmed; not a drop-in replacement for 3-A designs. |
| MP2315GJ-Z | Monolithic 3-A buck in 8-pin QFN (2 mm × 2 mm); 4.5–28-V input; 1.2-MHz fixed freq; no MODE-configurable Eco/FCCM. | Lacks programmable light-load mode and PG/SS flexibility; requires external compensation for some output voltages. | Choose MP2315GJ-Z when wider input range (up to 28 V) is needed and design can accommodate fixed PFM behavior and external loop tuning. |
Compared with TPS563212DRLR, TPS563211DRLR offers reduced current capability but identical footprint and feature set, while MP2315GJ-Z trades configurability for higher input voltage tolerance and different package thermal characteristics-making each suitable only for distinct design constraints.

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor for TPS563212DRLR?
A minimum 22-µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed close to the VIN and GND pins is recommended for TPS563212DRLR to suppress high-frequency switching noise and maintain stability under dynamic load conditions. TI's evaluation module uses two 10-µF capacitors in parallel, and total effective capacitance should remain ≥22 µF with low ESL construction.
Does TPS563212DRLR support pre-biased output startup?
Yes, TPS563212DRLR supports pre-biased soft start: when the output capacitor is pre-charged, the device delays switching until the internal reference voltage exceeds the feedback voltage, preventing reverse inductor current and ensuring monotonic VOUT ramp-critical for FPGA and SoC power integrity.
How is the MODE pin configured for Eco-mode with power-good function on TPS563212DRLR?
For Eco-mode with power-good function on TPS563212DRLR, connect the MODE pin directly to GND (0 Ω resistor). This configures light-load operation in PFM mode and sets PG/SS (Pin 1) as an open-drain power-good indicator with 112-µs turn-on delay and 48-µs turn-off delay.
What thermal derating applies to TPS563212DRLR at 125°C junction temperature?
At 125°C junction temperature, TPS563212DRLR maintains full 3-A output capability per datasheet specifications, but efficiency drops ~3–5% versus 25°C due to increased MOSFET RDS(on). Derating is not required below 125°C; thermal shutdown activates at 150°C with 20°C hysteresis, ensuring safe operation within rated limits.
Can TPS563212DRLR be used in FCCM mode with external soft-start?
Yes, TPS563212DRLR supports FCCM mode with external soft-start by connecting a 100-kΩ resistor from MODE to GND. In this configuration, the PG/SS pin becomes an external soft-start node-connecting a capacitor (e.g., 47 nF) from PG/SS to GND sets tSS ≈ 2 ms, enabling precise control of output voltage ramp rate.
