Product details
Overview
TPS60130PWPG4 from Texas Instruments is a regulated 5-V, 300-mA charge pump DC-DC converter optimized for battery-powered systems. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.4 V input (e.g., three alkaline/NiMH or single Li-ion cells), delivers ±4% regulated output with up to 90% efficiency, and requires only four external ceramic capacitors-no inductors. It integrates low-battery detection, adaptive 1.5×/2× mode switching, and thermal protection for portable medical devices and handheld instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the TPS60130PWPG4 datasheet, TPS60130PWPG4 pinout, TPS60130PWPG4 application, or TPS60130PWPG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 300-mA output capability at 5 V, 60-µA quiescent current, 0.05-µA shutdown current, HTSSOP-20 PowerPAD™ package, and integrated LBO/LBI comparator functionality specific to this variant.
Technical Context
The TPS60130PWPG4 employs dual single-ended charge pumps with adaptive mode switching: it automatically selects between 1.5× and voltage-doubler conversion based on input voltage and load current to maximize efficiency across 2.7–5.4 V. Its ACTIVE-CYCLE regulation maintains fixed 210–450 kHz switching frequency under heavy load while entering pulse-skip mode at light loads to reduce quiescent current.
It features an internal 1.21-V bandgap reference, error amplifier, and MOSFET switches with programmable low-battery detection via LBI/LBO pins. During shutdown (ENABLE = low), output is fully disconnected, leakage drops to ≤1 µA, and supply current falls to 0.05 µA typical-enabling true load isolation in ultra-low-power sleep states.

Pinout & Package
TPS60130PWPG4 is housed in a thermally enhanced 20-pin HTSSOP (PWP) package measuring 6.50 mm × 4.40 mm, featuring exposed PowerPAD™ for improved heat dissipation in compact PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (Pins 7, 14) | Power input | Dual-input configuration reduces trace impedance; must be bypassed to PGND with capacitor ≥½ of output capacitance |
| OUT (Pins 5, 16) | Regulated 5-V output | Dual-output pins minimize IR drop; require short parallel trace and local ceramic CO ≥10 µF |
| ENABLE (Pin 3) | Logic-controlled enable | Active-high; drives device into 0.05-µA shutdown with full output disconnection when low |
| FB (Pin 4) | Feedback input | Internally referenced to 1.21 V; connect directly to OUT near load for optimal regulation accuracy |
| LBI (Pin 18) | Low-battery detector input | Compares external resistive divider voltage to 1.21 V; connect to GND if unused |
| LBO/PG (Pin 17) | Open-drain status output | Drives low when battery voltage drops below programmed threshold (LBO mode); requires 100-kΩ–1-MΩ pullup to OUT |
| C1+, C1−, C2+, C2− (Pins 6, 8, 15, 13) | Flying capacitor terminals | Four dedicated nodes for external ceramic flying caps; critical for charge transfer timing and ripple control |
| GND (Pins 1, 2, 19, 20) | Analog ground | Separate from PGND; connects to internal reference and control circuitry-must tie to system AGND |
| PGND (Pins 9, 10, 11, 12) | Power ground | Carries high-frequency charge-pump current; requires low-inductance connection to input/output caps |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar regulated charge pump applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS60131PWPG4 | Replaces LBO with Power Good (PG) output; identical electrical specs except comparator function | Used where output voltage supervision (not battery monitoring) is required-e.g., FPGA configuration sequencing | Select TPS60131PWPG4 when system needs PG signal to enable downstream logic after stable 5-V rail is established |
| TPS60110PWP | Same 5-V/300-mA output but lacks LBO/PG comparator; uses simpler pinout (16-pin HTSSOP) and lower IQ (45 µA) | Suitable for cost-sensitive, non-critical applications without battery health monitoring or power-good signaling | Choose TPS60110PWP when low-battery detection is unnecessary and board space allows alternate footprint |
Compared with TPS60130PWPG4, TPS60131PWPG4 offers identical power performance but swaps low-battery alert for output supervision-making it ideal for host-controlled power sequencing. TPS60110PWP trades away diagnostic features for lower cost and quiescent current, best suited for fixed-battery-life consumer devices.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the TPS60130PWPG4?
The TPS60130PWPG4 delivers up to 300 mA of continuous output current when supplied from a 3-V input, as specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. This rating holds across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C junction) and is validated with proper thermal layout-including soldering the PowerPAD™ to a minimum 100 mm² copper pour.
Does the TPS60130PWPG4 require external inductors?
No, the TPS60130PWPG4 is a capacitor-based charge pump converter and requires no inductors. It operates using four external ceramic capacitors: two flying capacitors (C1, C2) and input/output filter capacitors (Ci, Co). This eliminates magnetic EMI, reduces board area, and lowers BOM cost compared to inductor-based boost converters.
How does the low-battery detection function work on the TPS60130PWPG4?
The TPS60130PWPG4 implements low-battery detection via the LBI input and LBO open-drain output. An external resistor divider scales the battery voltage to compare against the internal 1.21-V reference. When the scaled voltage falls below 1.15–1.27 V, LBO pulls low. The LBO signal is invalid for the first 500 µs after startup and is high-impedance during shutdown.
What is the shutdown current specification for the TPS60130PWPG4?
The TPS60130PWPG4 draws just 0.05 µA typical (1 µA maximum) supply current when ENABLE is driven low. In this state, all internal switches, oscillator, and control logic are disabled, and the output is fully disconnected from the input-ensuring zero backfeed and minimal battery drain during storage or deep-sleep modes.
Can the TPS60130PWPG4 operate from a single Li-ion cell?
Yes, the TPS60130PWPG4 supports input voltages from 2.7 V to 5.4 V, making it compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V nominal) and Li-polymer batteries. Its adaptive 1.5×/2× mode switching maintains high efficiency (>85%) across the full discharge curve, and undervoltage lockout (1.6 V) prevents operation below safe battery voltage.
