Product details
Overview
TPS565201DDCR from Texas Instruments is a 5-A synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with D-CAP2™ control, integrated 31-mΩ high-side and 16-mΩ low-side MOSFETs, 4.5–17-V input range, 0.76–7-V adjustable output, and 500-kHz fixed switching frequency. It delivers stable 1.05-V/5-A power for digital TV SoCs and STB main rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS565201DDCR datasheet, TPS565201DDCR pinout, TPS565201DDCR application, or TPS565201DDCR equivalent, key selection criteria include Eco-mode™ light-load efficiency, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, pre-biased startup capability, and SOT-23-6 (DDC) thermal performance up to 125°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The TPS565201DDCR implements adaptive on-time D-CAP2™ control with internal ripple injection, enabling stable regulation using low-ESR ceramic or polymer output capacitors without external compensation. Its one-shot timer sets on-time inversely proportional to VIN and proportional to VOUT, maintaining quasi-fixed 500-kHz operation across input voltage changes.
It supports three functional modes: continuous conduction mode (CCM) above ~1 A, pulse-skipping Eco-mode™ below that threshold for >85% efficiency at 10-mA load, and shutdown with ≤1 µA quiescent current. Protection includes hiccup-mode overcurrent, non-latching UVLO (4.3-V turn-on), and thermal shutdown at 172°C.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the TPS565201DDCR?
The TPS565201DDCR delivers up to 5 A of continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (TJ ≤ 125°C, adequate PCB copper area). This rating assumes proper thermal design - including use of thermal vias and 2-oz copper - and is validated across the full 4.5–17-V input range with typical 2.2-µH inductors and ceramic output capacitors. The TPS565201DDCR maintains this current capability while sustaining <1% output voltage error and robust hiccup-mode overcurrent protection.
Does the TPS565201DDCR support startup into a pre-biased output?
Yes, the TPS565201DDCR supports pre-biased soft-start. When the output capacitor is already charged at startup, the device monitors the VFB pin and delays switching until its internal reference voltage exceeds the sensed VFB level. This prevents reverse current flow through the low-side FET and avoids output voltage overshoot or instability. The TPS565201DDCR implements this behavior without external components - a key differentiator for systems with multiple power domains or hot-swap requirements.
What package type and dimensions does the TPS565201DDCR use?
The TPS565201DDCR uses the DDC (SOT-23-6) package: a 6-pin surface-mount outline measuring 1.60 mm × 2.90 mm with 0.95-mm height and 0.95-mm pitch. It features an exposed thermal pad on the bottom for enhanced heat dissipation. This compact footprint enables high-density layouts in consumer electronics such as STBs and Blu-ray players. The TPS565201DDCR's thermal resistance is specified as RθJA = 95.9°C/W, confirming suitability for 5-A operation on standard FR-4 PCBs with appropriate copper pour and vias.
How does Eco-mode™ improve light-load efficiency in the TPS565201DDCR?
Eco-mode™ in the TPS565201DDCR enables pulse-skipping operation below ~1 A, reducing switching frequency proportionally to load current. This cuts gate-drive and switching losses significantly - achieving >85% efficiency at 10-mA output while maintaining regulation. Unlike burst-mode controllers, Eco-mode™ preserves D-CAP2™'s fast transient response and avoids audible noise. The TPS565201DDCR transitions seamlessly between CCM and Eco-mode™ without external configuration, making it ideal for always-on consumer devices where standby power directly impacts certification compliance.
What protection features are built into the TPS565201DDCR?
The TPS565201DDCR integrates five key protections: (1) cycle-by-cycle overcurrent limiting with hiccup-mode recovery (14.9-ms off time), (2) non-latching undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 4.3-V turn-on and 0.4-V hysteresis, (3) thermal shutdown at 172°C with automatic restart, (4) output undervoltage protection (UVP) triggering at 65% of nominal VOUT, and (5) input overvoltage tolerance up to 19 V. These functions operate autonomously - no external circuitry required - and are validated across the full –40°C to 125°C junction temperature range. The TPS565201DDCR's protection suite ensures robust operation in real-world consumer environments subject to line surges, thermal stress, and intermittent faults.
