Product details
Overview
TPS60213DGS from Texas Instruments is a regulated 3.3-V charge-pump DC/DC converter for battery-powered systems, delivering up to 50 mA continuous output current from a 1.6-V to 3.6-V input, featuring power-good detection, <5-mVPP output ripple, and 2-µA typical quiescent current in snooze mode-used in glucose meters and portable audio players.
For engineers reviewing the TPS60213DGS datasheet, TPS60213DGS pinout, TPS60213DGS application, or TPS60213DGS equivalent, this page provides verified functional specifications, validated 10-pin MSOP package mapping, confirmed power-good detector behavior, and real-world design constraints including capacitor requirements, linskip threshold (7 mA), and external clock synchronization up to 800 kHz.
Technical Context
The TPS60213DGS implements a push-pull dual charge-pump topology with automatic mode switching between constant-frequency linear-regulation (>7 mA load) and pulse-skip operation (<7 mA), minimizing ripple and quiescent current. Its internal oscillator operates at 200–400 kHz, or it synchronizes to an external clock applied to the SNOOZE pin (400–800 kHz).
It integrates a power-good (PG) open-drain output that asserts high when VOUT ≥ 91% of nominal (≈3.00 V), disabled in snooze mode. Unlike low-battery variants, LBI is internally tied to GND and LBO is repurposed as PG-confirmed by terminal function table and DGS package diagram for TPS60213.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3 V ±4% (1.8–3.3 V input, full load); maintains regulation across 1.6–3.6 V input range. |
| Max Output Current | 50 mA continuous (at VIN = 2 V); peak current drops below 1.8 V per Figure 6. |
| Output Ripple | <5 mVPP at max load-enabled by push-pull charge transfer eliminating half-cycle hold time. |
| Quiescent Current | 35 µA typical no-load (normal mode); 2 µA typical in snooze mode-lower than most battery self-discharge rates. |
| SNOOZE Control | Three-mode input: low = snooze (2 µA, 2 mA max load); high = internal oscillator; AC signal = sync (400–800 kHz). |
| Power-Good Threshold | PG asserts high at VOUT ≥ 91% × 3.3 V ≈ 3.00 V; hysteresis ≈ 1% of VOUT; open-drain, requires external pullup. |
| Operating Temp Range | −40°C to +85°C junction temperature-validated per recommended operating conditions table. |
Pinout & Package
TPS60213DGS is housed in a 10-pin MSOP (DGS) package, 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 1.0 mm, with exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected). Pin numbering follows standard MSOP orientation (pin 1 top-left, counterclockwise).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuits; shared with LBI on TPS60211/TPS60213 (not low-battery input). |
| 2 | GND | Dedicated ground pin-dual GND pins reduce ground impedance and improve noise immunity. |
| 3 | C1− | Negative terminal of flying capacitor C1; connects to charge-pump stage 1 return path. |
| 4 | C1+ | Positive terminal of flying capacitor C1; alternates polarity with C2 during push-pull cycle. |
| 5 | OUT | Regulated 3.3-V output; requires ≥2.2 µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND for stability and ripple suppression. |
| 6 | PG | Open-drain power-good output; pulled high via external resistor when VOUT ≥ 3.00 V; high-impedance in snooze mode. |
| 9 | SNOOZE | Mode-select input: logic low = snooze (2 µA IQ); logic high = normal; AC signal = sync (400–800 kHz). |
| 7 | IN | Main supply input (1.6–3.6 V); requires ≥2.2 µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND near pin. |
| 8 | C2− | Negative terminal of flying capacitor C2; complements C1 in 180° phase-shifted push-pull operation. |
| 10 | C2+ | Positive terminal of flying capacitor C2; enables continuous charge delivery to OUT without ripple doubling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-inductor architecture | Eliminates EMI-sensitive magnetics; reduces BOM cost and board area-only four X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors required. |
| Push-pull charge pump | Two 180°-phase-shifted flying capacitors ensure continuous output current delivery, cutting ripple vs. single-stage pumps. |
| Linskip mode transition | Seamless switch from pulse-skip (≤7 mA) to constant-frequency (≥7 mA) preserves efficiency and minimizes audible noise. |
| Power-good monitoring | PG output enables system-level power sequencing and brownout detection without external comparators or voltage dividers. |
| Snooze mode control | Reduces system standby power to ~2 µA while sustaining 3.3 V ±6%, enabling multi-month battery life in medical wearables. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar regulated charge-pump DC/DC converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS60211DGS | Same 10-pin MSOP package, 3.3-V/100-mA output, but includes power-good (PG) and supports −40°C to +85°C. | Higher output current (100 mA vs. 50 mA) suits systems with additional peripherals; identical PG functionality and pinout. | Select TPS60211DGS if load exceeds 50 mA and extended temp range is required-no PCB changes needed. |
| TPS60212DGS | Same 10-pin MSOP package and 50-mA rating, but uses low-battery detector (LBI/LBO) instead of PG; rated 40°C to +85°C. | Replaces TPS60213DGS where battery voltage monitoring (e.g., "replace batteries" alert) is prioritized over power validation. | Choose TPS60212DGS only if low-battery warning is mandatory and PG is unnecessary-requires LBI resistor divider redesign. |
Compared with TPS60213DGS, TPS60211DGS offers higher current and wider temperature range with identical PG interface, while TPS60212DGS trades PG for low-battery detection-making TPS60213DGS optimal for compact, battery-backed systems needing reliable power validation without extra components.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the TPS60213DGS?
The TPS60213DGS delivers a maximum continuous output current of 50 mA when the input voltage is 2 V, as specified in the electrical characteristics table. At lower input voltages (e.g., 1.6 V), peak output current decreases per Figure 6. This rating assumes proper capacitor selection (C1/C2 = 1 µF, CIN/COUT = 2.2 µF) and ambient temperature ≤85°C. Exceeding 50 mA may cause output voltage droop or thermal shutdown.
Does the TPS60213DGS include a low-battery detector?
No, the TPS60213DGS does not include a low-battery detector. Per the "AVAILABLE OPTIONS" table and terminal functions section, TPS60213DGS uses the power-good (PG) function-pin 1 is GND (not LBI), and pin 10 is PG (not LBO). The low-battery detector is exclusive to TPS60210DGS and TPS60212DGS. Using TPS60213DGS for battery monitoring requires external circuitry.
How does the SNOOZE pin operate on the TPS60213DGS?
The SNOOZE pin on the TPS60213DGS supports three modes: logic low enables snooze mode (2 µA IQ, 2 mA max load, 3.3 V ±6%); logic high activates normal operation (internal 200–400 kHz oscillator); and an AC signal (400–800 kHz) synchronizes switching. The device enters snooze if SNOOZE is held low >10 µs-confirmed in the "detailed description" section.
What capacitors are required for basic operation of the TPS60213DGS?
The TPS60213DGS requires exactly four external ceramic capacitors: two 1-µF flying capacitors (C1, C2), one 2.2-µF input capacitor (CIN), and one 2.2-µF output capacitor (COUT). All must be X5R or X7R dielectric (low ESR <0.1 Ω) per Table 2 and capacitor selection guidelines. No inductors or electrolytics are needed-enabling ultra-compact, low-EMI designs.
Is the TPS60213DGS pin-compatible with other TPS6021x variants?
Yes, the TPS60213DGS shares the identical 10-pin MSOP (DGS) package and pinout with TPS60210DGS, TPS60211DGS, and TPS60212DGS-including dual GND pins (1 and 2), SNOOZE on pin 9, and PG/LBO on pin 10. However, internal functionality differs: TPS60213DGS and TPS60211DGS use PG, while TPS60210DGS and TPS60212DGS use LBI/LBO-requiring schematic review before substitution.
