Product details
Overview
TPS61299YBHR from Texas Instruments is a synchronous boost converter IC optimized for ultra-low-power battery-powered systems, featuring 95nA typical quiescent current into VOUT, 1.2A average input current limit, 0.7V minimum start-up voltage (TPS61299x variant), and operation down to 150mV input with VIN > 0.7V. It delivers regulated output from 1.8V to 5.5V in a 1.2mm × 0.8mm WCSP package and is deployed in coin-cell–powered wearables requiring long runtime and fast load transient response.
For engineers reviewing the TPS61299YBHR datasheet, TPS61299YBHR pinout, TPS61299YBHR application, or TPS61299YBHR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, WCSP-specific pin mapping, confirmed fast-transient performance (8μs setting time), true shutdown behavior at EN low, and validated alternatives for alkaline/coin-cell boost applications.
Technical Context
The TPS61299YBHR implements a hysteretic current-mode control architecture with constant 350mA inductor ripple current, enabling variable switching frequency (~3MHz at VIN=3.6V, VOUT=5V, L=1μH) and automatic PFM/PWM transition. It supports auto pass-through when VIN > VOUT and enters burst mode under light load to sustain 95nA quiescent current.
As a TPS61299x-series device (non-A variant), it features true disconnection at EN low-fully turning off the high-side MOSFET-with 60nA typical shutdown current into VIN. Its UVLO rising threshold is 0.7V, and it operates continuously down to 0.5V after startup, enabling deep discharge utilization of single alkaline or coin cells.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Quiescent Current (VOUT) | 95nA typical - enables multi-year runtime on CR2032 coin cell in always-on sensor nodes |
| Input Current Limit | 1.2A average - supports up to 500mA output at 3V→5V conversion with ~94% efficiency |
| Start-up Voltage | 0.7V (rising) - allows reliable startup from partially depleted alkaline or zinc-air batteries |
| Output Voltage Range | 1.8V to 5.5V - configurable via VSEL resistor; covers MCU core, BLE radio, and display bias rails |
| Load Transient Setting Time | ~8μs (0A → 200mA) - maintains stable 5V rail during RF transmit bursts in TWS earbuds |
| Shutdown Current (VIN) | 60nA typical - ensures negligible battery drain during system sleep or power-off states |
| Package | 6-ball WCSP (1.2mm × 0.8mm) - enables ultra-compact PCB layout for space-constrained wearables |
Pinout & Package
TPS61299YBHR uses a 6-ball wafer-level chip-scale package (WCSP) with 0.4mm pitch, measuring 1.2mm × 0.8mm. The package is bottom-soldered with solder balls; no exposed thermal pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Accepts 0.5V–5.5V; powers internal circuitry and high-side switch; UVLO triggers at 0.7V rising |
| SW | Switch node | Connects to external inductor; carries pulsed current; requires low-inductance layout to minimize ringing |
| EN | Enable logic input | Active-high; pulls low for true shutdown (full input-output isolation); internal 800kΩ pulldown |
| VSEL | Voltage select | Resistor-to-GND sets one of 21 output voltages (e.g., 3.3V, 5.0V); latched at startup only |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable boosted voltage; requires ≥10μF ceramic output capacitor for stability |
| GND | Ground reference | System return path; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise and thermal resistance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hysteretic current-mode control | Enables variable-frequency operation without external compensation, reducing component count and layout sensitivity |
| True shutdown with full disconnection | EN low disables switching and turns off high-side MOSFET, eliminating leakage paths between VIN and VOUT |
| Burst mode at light load | Maintains 95nA IQ by cycling on/off only as needed to hold regulation-critical for multi-month battery life |
| VSEL-based output programming | 21 precise output options (1.8V–5.5V) set via single external resistor-no EEPROM or I²C required |
| Fast transient response (8μs) | Minimizes output droop during sudden load steps (e.g., BLE packet transmission), preserving system stability |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61299DRLR | SOT563 package (1.6mm × 1.6mm); identical electrical specs and pinout; higher thermal resistance (RθJA = 135.6°C/W vs. 130.0°C/W) | Better suited for hand-soldered prototypes or thermally less constrained layouts where WCSP rework is impractical | Select when board assembly process lacks fine-pitch WCSP capability or thermal margin exceeds 5°C/W requirement |
| TPS61299A | Same WCSP package but force-pass-through at EN low (30nA IBY); 0.9V UVLO; same 1.2A input limit and 1.8V–5.5V VOUT range | Required where system needs uninterrupted VIN-to-VOUT conduction during disable (e.g., backup power path) | Choose only if true shutdown is not required and pass-through functionality aligns with system power sequencing |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required to start up the TPS61299YBHR?
The TPS61299YBHR has a 0.7V rising UVLO threshold. It starts switching once VIN rises above 0.7V and sustains operation down to 0.5V after startup. This enables full utilization of alkaline and coin-cell batteries, even near end-of-life. The TPS61299YBHR datasheet confirms this value under "Recommended Operating Conditions" and "Electrical Characteristics."
Does the TPS61299YBHR support true shutdown, and what is its shutdown current?
Yes-the TPS61299YBHR (as a non-A variant) supports true shutdown: when EN is pulled low, the high-side MOSFET fully turns off, disconnecting VIN from VOUT. Its typical shutdown current into VIN is 60nA, verified across temperature in the "Electrical Characteristics" table. This ensures negligible battery drain in system sleep modes.
How is output voltage selected on the TPS61299YBHR?
Output voltage is set using an external resistor between the VSEL pin and GND. The TPS61299YBHR supports 21 factory-trimmed options from 1.8V to 5.5V (e.g., 3.3V at 0Ω, 5.0V at 4.75kΩ). Configuration is latched once at startup; changing the resistor mid-operation has no effect unless EN is toggled.
What is the typical switching frequency of the TPS61299YBHR under standard conditions?
The TPS61299YBHR uses hysteretic current-mode control and does not have a fixed frequency. At VIN = 3.6V, VOUT = 5V, and L = 1μH, the typical switching frequency is approximately 3MHz. Frequency varies dynamically with load, input/output voltage, and inductance-detailed in Section 7.3.4 of the TPS61299YBHR datasheet.
Can the TPS61299YBHR operate with input voltages below 1V after startup?
Yes-the TPS61299YBHR continues regulating down to 0.5V after initial startup (which requires VIN > 0.7V). With VIN > 0.7V applied, it can sustain operation even as the battery discharges to 150mV, provided the signal VIN remains above 0.7V. This behavior is explicitly documented in the "Features" and "Description" sections of the TPS61299YBHR datasheet.
