Product details
Overview
TPS60150DRVR from Texas Instruments is a regulated switched-capacitor voltage converter IC that generates a stable 5V output from 2.7V–5.5V input, delivering up to 140mA with X2 charge-pump topology, 1.5MHz switching frequency, and 90μA quiescent current in skip mode-used for USB OTG power rails in portable devices.
For engineers reviewing the TPS60150DRVR datasheet, TPS60150DRVR pinout, TPS60150DRVR application, or TPS60150DRVR equivalent, key selection criteria include fixed 5V output regulation, 6-pin WSON package compatibility, thermal/overcurrent protection, soft-start behavior, and skip-mode efficiency optimization at light loads.
Technical Context
The TPS60150DRVR implements an X2 charge-pump architecture with internal 2.5V flying capacitor regulation and dual-phase FET control (Q1–Q4), enabling precise 5V output via feedback-controlled voltage doubling. It operates in two functional modes: normal PWM mode above ~8mA load and skip mode below that threshold to minimize quiescent current.
Its enable pin (ENA) provides hardware-level shutdown with ≤1μA shutdown current, while integrated undervoltage lockout (2.1V threshold), thermal shutdown (160°C trip), and short-circuit current limiting (80mA typical) ensure robust operation across –40°C to 85°C ambient conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, and multi-cell alkaline/NiMH battery inputs without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0V ±0.2V - tightly regulated for USB OTG VBUS compliance and HDMI auxiliary power requirements. |
| Max Output Current | 140mA at VIN ≥3.3V - sufficient to power USB OTG transceivers and low-power peripherals directly from battery. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz - enables use of small 1μF ceramic flying capacitor and 2.2μF output capacitors, minimizing PCB footprint. |
| Quiescent Current | 90μA in skip mode - extends battery life in standby states for handheld meters and mobile phones. |
| Protection Features | UVLO (2.1V), thermal shutdown (160°C), overcurrent limit (80mA), and soft-start - eliminates need for external supervision circuitry. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and consumer portable equipment environments. |
Pinout & Package
The TPS60150DRVR is housed in a 2mm × 2mm, 0.8mm-height 6-pin WSON (DRV) package with wettable flanks, optimized for automated optical inspection and high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for input, output, and charge-pump switching currents; must be connected to low-impedance ground plane. |
| VIN | Input supply | Accepts 2.7V–5.5V unregulated source; requires local 2.2μF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers 5V ±0.2V to load; connects to 2.2μF output capacitor and downstream USB/HDMI circuitry. |
| CP+ | Flying capacitor positive | Connects to one terminal of 1μF flying capacitor; carries high-frequency AC switching current during charge/discharge cycles. |
| CP− | Flying capacitor negative | Connects to other terminal of 1μF flying capacitor; forms X2 charge-pump loop with CP+ and internal FETs. |
| ENA | Enable control | Active-high digital input (1.3V–VIN logic high); asserts internal bias and oscillator when pulled high; pulls to GND for <1μA shutdown. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| X2 charge-pump topology | Doubles input voltage using only one flying capacitor, eliminating inductors and reducing EMI versus buck-boost solutions. |
| Built-in soft start | 150μs ramp time limits inrush current during power-up, preventing input rail droop and system brownouts. |
| Skip mode operation | Disables switching and reduces prebias current when load falls below ~8mA, cutting IQ to 90μA without output voltage overshoot. |
| Hardware enable/disable | Direct logic-level control (no pull-up required) enables system-level power sequencing and dynamic power gating. |
| Integrated protection suite | Combines UVLO, thermal shutdown, and current limiting to sustain reliable operation under fault conditions without external components. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar charge-pump regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS60140DRVR | Same 6-pin WSON package, identical pinout, but 3.3V fixed output and 100mA max current. | Targeted for 3.3V logic rails-not suitable for USB OTG or HDMI where 5V is mandatory. | Select only if system requires 3.3V output and lower current; not a drop-in replacement for TPS60150DRVR. |
| MAX680ESA+ | 5V output, ±5V dual-rail capable, 100mA max, 8-pin SOIC package, no enable pin or skip mode. | Lacks hardware enable, thermal shutdown, and skip-mode efficiency-requires external UVLO and sequencing logic. | Use only in legacy designs where SOIC footprint is acceptable and light-load efficiency is secondary. |
Compared with TPS60150DRVR, TPS60140DRVR offers identical form-factor but mismatched output voltage, while MAX680ESA+ trades integration and efficiency for dual-rail flexibility and through-hole assembly-neither provides full functional equivalence without design revision.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for TPS60150DRVR to regulate 5V output?
The TPS60150DRVR requires a minimum input voltage of 2.7V to maintain regulated 5V output across its full load range. Below this threshold, undervoltage lockout activates and disables switching. At VIN = 3.1V, it delivers 120mA; at VIN ≥3.3V, it sustains full 140mA output capability-critical for aging lithium batteries.
Does TPS60150DRVR require external compensation components?
No, the TPS60150DRVR features an internally compensated voltage control loop. No external resistors or capacitors are needed for stability-only three external ceramic capacitors (2.2μF input, 2.2μF output, 1μF flying) are required for operation, simplifying layout and reducing BOM cost.
How does skip mode affect output voltage accuracy in TPS60150DRVR?
In skip mode, the TPS60150DRVR allows output voltage to rise to VOUT + 0.1V (i.e., up to 5.1V) to minimize switching losses. This is intentional and specified in the datasheet; regulation returns to 4.8–5.2V range immediately upon load increase triggering re-entry into PWM mode.
Can TPS60150DRVR drive white LED strings directly?
The TPS60150DRVR is not a constant-current LED driver, but it can power parallel white LEDs with ballast resistors-as shown in TI's Figure 7-17. Its 140mA 5V output supports up to four typical 20mA WLEDs with appropriate current-limiting resistors, making it suitable for low-cost backlighting in handheld meters.
What is the thermal performance of TPS60150DRVR in a standard 2-layer PCB layout?
On a standard 2-layer PCB with 1oz copper and minimal thermal vias, the TPS60150DRVR exhibits a junction-to-board thermal resistance (RθJB) of 38.6°C/W. At 140mA output and 3.6V input, power dissipation is ~180mW, resulting in ~7°C junction-to-ambient rise-well within safe margins below the 125°C max operating junction temperature.
