Product details
Overview
TPS610994YFFT from Texas Instruments is a synchronous boost converter optimized for ultra-low-power battery-powered systems, delivering fixed 3.3V output with 600nA quiescent current into VOUT and 400nA into VIN, operating from 0.7V to 5.5V input, and supporting up to 300mA load with 93% peak efficiency - deployed in optical heart rate monitors and memory LCD bias circuits.
For engineers reviewing the TPS610994YFFT datasheet, TPS610994YFFT pinout, TPS610994YFFT application, or TPS610994YFFT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.3V fixed-output accuracy (±2.3% over temperature), true load disconnection in shutdown (<0.5µA VIN leakage), hysteretic control enabling burst-mode operation at µA loads, and WCSP package compatibility with space-constrained wearable PCBs.
Technical Context
The TPS610994YFFT implements a hysteretic current-mode control architecture that dynamically adjusts switching frequency and enters burst mode below ~100µA load to sustain 75% efficiency at 10µA - critical for coin-cell longevity. Its down-mode regulation maintains stable 3.3V output even when VIN exceeds VOUT (up to VIN = VOUT + 0.5V), transitioning seamlessly to pass-through operation beyond that threshold.
It integrates cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection (0.8–1.25A switch current limit), thermal shutdown at 150°C with 25°C hysteresis, and output overvoltage protection clamping at 5.8V. The FB pin is internally tied to GND for fixed-output configuration, eliminating external resistors and reducing BOM count in compact designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±2.3% (3.23–3.37V in PWM mode, 3.4V in PFM mode) - ensures stable bias for low-noise analog sensors. |
| Quiescent current (VIN) | 400nA typical - extends alkaline/coin-cell battery life beyond 10 years in always-on wearables. |
| Quiescent current (VOUT) | 600nA typical - enables ultra-low standby power in memory LCD hold modes. |
| Input voltage range | 0.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V), NiMH (0.9–1.4V/cell), and alkaline (0.7–1.5V/cell) without pre-regulation. |
| Switch current limit | 0.8A minimum - sustains 300mA output at 3.3V from 3.6V input with margin for transient loads. |
| Efficiency @ 10µA | Up to 75% - preserves >90% of battery capacity during long idle periods in optical HRM LEDs. |
| Efficiency @ 200mA | Up to 93% - delivers high conversion efficiency during active sensor measurement bursts. |
| Shutdown current | ≤0.5µA into VIN - guarantees true load isolation and eliminates parasitic drain in off-state. |
Pinout & Package
TPS610994YFFT uses a 6-ball, 1.23mm × 0.88mm DSBGA (WCSP) package with bottom-side solder balls and thermal pad connected to GND. This ultra-compact package enables <1.1mm² PCB footprint and supports automated reflow assembly for high-density wearable modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Accepts 0.7–5.5V source; connects to input capacitor and battery; UVLO triggers at 0.7V rising threshold. |
| SW | Power switch node | Drives external 2.2µH inductor; carries pulsed current up to 1.25A peak; requires low-ESR ceramic output cap. |
| EN | Enable logic input | Active-high control (VIH ≥1.2V); must be pulled high or low - floating prohibited; enables true shutdown. |
| GND | Power ground | Main return path for input/output currents; connects to thermal pad; must be solid copper pour for thermal relief. |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers fixed 3.3V; supplies sensor bias or MCU I/O rails; decoupled with ≥10µF ceramic capacitor. |
| FB | Feedback reference | Internally shorted to GND for fixed 3.3V operation - no external resistor divider required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hysteretic burst-mode control | Enables automatic transition to ultra-low-IQ sleep state at µA loads while maintaining regulation - eliminates need for external enable sequencing. |
| Down-mode regulation | Maintains precise 3.3V output even when VIN rises above VOUT (up to VIN = VOUT + 0.5V), avoiding external LDO in hybrid supply architectures. |
| True shutdown disconnect | Breaks conduction path between VIN and VOUT using integrated PMOS rectifier - reduces system standby current to sub-µA levels. |
| Integrated OVP & thermal protection | Clamps output at 5.8V and halts switching at 150°C junction temperature - prevents damage during fault conditions without external components. |
| Fixed-output EEPROM programming | Eliminates external feedback resistors and layout sensitivity - reduces bill-of-materials and improves production yield in high-volume wearables. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar boost converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS610995YFFT | Fixed 3.6V output; 3.53–3.67V accuracy; identical quiescent current and package. | Requires redesign of downstream 3.3V logic rails; unsuitable where 3.3V tolerance is strict (e.g., SPI interface voltage limits). | Select only if system voltage rails are compatible with 3.6V and higher output ripple is acceptable. |
| MAX17222ELT+T | 3.3V fixed output; 350nA IQ (VIN); 0.7–5.5V input; 300mA max; 2mm × 2mm WLP-6 package. | Lacks down-mode regulation - cannot maintain 3.3V when VIN > 3.3V; requires external LDO for battery voltages above 3.8V. | Prefer when board space allows larger WLP-6 and down-mode functionality is not needed. |
Compared with TPS610994YFFT, TPS610995YFFT offers higher output voltage but invalidates 3.3V-tolerant interfaces, while MAX17222ELT+T saves 50nA IQ but forfeits critical down-mode capability - making TPS610994YFFT uniquely suited for single-cell Li-ion systems requiring uninterrupted 3.3V rail across full discharge.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the TPS610994YFFT across temperature and load?
The TPS610994YFFT delivers a fixed 3.3V output with ±2.3% accuracy (3.23–3.37V) under PWM mode at TJ = –40°C to 125°C and VIN < VOUT. In PFM mode, output rises to 3.4V - verified in Figure 6-15 of the SLVSD88M datasheet. Load regulation holds within ±15mV from 0 to 300mA, and temperature drift is limited to ±0.02V over –40°C to 125°C.
Does the TPS610994YFFT require external feedback resistors?
No. The TPS610994YFFT has internal EEPROM-programmed feedback, so the FB pin is internally connected to GND - eliminating external resistors and associated layout sensitivity. This simplifies design, reduces BOM cost, and improves production yield compared to adjustable versions like TPS61099YFFT.
How does the TPS610994YFFT behave when input voltage exceeds 3.3V?
When VIN rises above 3.3V, the TPS610994YFFT automatically enters down-mode regulation to maintain 3.3V output until VIN reaches VOUT + 0.5V (i.e., 3.8V). Beyond that, it transitions to pass-through mode where VOUT ≈ VIN − (IL × RDS(on)_HS + IL × DCR_L). This avoids unnecessary switching losses and extends battery life in mid-to-high SOC states.
What is the minimum startup input voltage for the TPS610994YFFT?
The TPS610994YFFT starts reliably from 0.7V input with a load ≤3kΩ, as confirmed in Section 7.3.4. Below 0.7V, UVLO prevents operation. Startup time depends on input voltage and load - e.g., from 0.7V to 3.3V output takes ~5ms into 10kΩ load, but may fail under heavy loads (>100mA) unless VIN ≥1.2V due to soft-start current limiting.
Is the TPS610994YFFT RoHS-compliant and REACH-compliant?
Yes. The TPS610994YFFT is manufactured in Texas Instruments' ISO 9001- and IATF 16949-certified facilities and meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU Annex II maximum concentration values and REACH SVHC thresholds. Full compliance documentation, including CoC and material declarations, is available via TI's Quality & Environmental page for orderable part TPS610994YFFT.
