Product details
Overview
TPS61305YFFR from Texas Instruments is a 1.5-A/4.1-A multiple LED camera flash driver IC with I²C interface, synchronous boost topology, and integrated LED current regulation for up to three white LEDs. It delivers 400 mA (LED1), 800 mA (LED2), and 400 mA (LED3) in standard mode or 925/1850/925 mA in extended high-current mode, with 400-mV LED sense voltage and 2-MHz switching frequency. It supports flashlight synchronization via FLASH_SYNC pin and operates from 2.5 V to 5.5 V input for smartphone camera flash applications.
For engineers reviewing the TPS61305YFFR datasheet, TPS61305YFFR pinout, TPS61305YFFR application, or TPS61305YFFR equivalent, key selection criteria include LED current accuracy (±7.5% flash mode), thermal shutdown (140–160°C), standby current (2–12 μA), and I²C compatibility up to 3.4 Mbits/s - all critical for compact, battery-sensitive mobile imaging systems.
Technical Context
The TPS61305YFFR implements a high-frequency synchronous boost converter with constant-current sinks per LED channel, enabling precise parallel drive of three white LEDs. Its dual-mode operation-voltage-regulated boost (3.825–5.7 V output) and current-regulated flash-allows seamless transition between DC light and strobe modes without external circuitry.
Hardware features include dedicated NRESET for system-level reset, TS pin for NTC-based LED temperature monitoring (44.5 kΩ warning threshold), and Tx-MASK for RF PA coordination. The device enters power-save mode at light loads and maintains regulated output even when input exceeds nominal VOUT, eliminating need for external overvoltage clamping.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion and Li-poly battery operation without pre-regulation. |
| Max Flash Current (LED2) | 1850 mA - enables high-intensity xenon-replacement flash in energy-storage mode with HC_SEL = HIGH. |
| LED Sense Voltage | 400 mV - low dropout improves efficiency and reduces thermal stress on current-sense resistors. |
| I²C Speed | Up to 3.4 Mbits/s - supports high-speed configuration updates during camera startup and mode switching. |
| Standby Current | 2–12 μA - minimizes battery drain during idle periods in always-on imaging subsystems. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.92 MHz - allows use of compact 2.2-μH inductors and reduces EMI filtering requirements. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 140–160°C - protects LED and IC under sustained high-current flash operation with 20°C hysteresis. |
Pinout & Package
TPS61305YFFR is housed in a 20-pin NanoFree™ DSBGA package (1.90 mm × 2.20 mm, 0.5-mm pitch) with bottom-side solder balls. Thermal performance is optimized via PGND and AGND connections and low RθJA (70.9°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AVIN | Power Input | Main supply input; requires local 10-μF ceramic bypass capacitor for stability and transient response. |
| VOUT | Boost Output | Regulated output node feeding storage capacitor and LED anodes; supports up to 5.7 V. |
| LED1/LED2/LED3 | Current-Sink Returns | Feedback inputs regulating LED current via internal 400-mV reference; connect to LED cathodes. |
| SW | Power Switch Node | Connection to inductor switch node; carries high di/dt; requires tight layout and Kelvin routing. |
| NRESET | Hardware Reset | Active-low master reset; forces shutdown and clears I²C interface state upon assertion. |
| TS | Temperature Sense | NTC bias input (23.8 μA source); monitors LED junction temperature using 44.5 kΩ warning threshold. |
| FLASH_SYNC | Strobe Trigger | Zero-latency synchronization input; rising edge initiates immediate flash current ramp-up. |
| SCL/SDA | I²C Interface | Standard two-wire serial bus; supports fast-mode (400 kHz) and high-speed mode (3.4 MHz). |
| HC_SEL | Mode Control | Selects standard (LOW) or extended high-current (HIGH) LED drive capability; must be terminated. |
| PGND/AGND | Ground Returns | Separate power and analog grounds; require low-inductance connection under die for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated LED Safety Timer | Prevents thermal runaway by automatically terminating flash after programmable duration, independent of host control. |
| Automatic VF and ESR Calibration | Compensates for LED forward-voltage drift and storage-capacitor ESR variation across temperature and aging, maintaining consistent flash intensity. |
| Privacy Indicator LED Output (INDLED) | Dedicated constant-current sink (2.6–7.9 mA) drives status LED to signal active camera operation, meeting privacy compliance requirements. |
| Storage Capacitor Friendly Architecture | Enables use of supercapacitors as energy reservoirs; balances dual-cell stacks via BAL pin to extend flash cycle life and capacity utilization. |
| Zero Latency Tx-Masking | Hardware input (Tx-MASK) instantly switches LED from flash to DC light mode (<15 μs settling), reducing peak battery current during RF transmission. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED flash driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61305AYFFR | Includes identical LED current specs and TS functionality but adds enhanced thermal detection thresholds and improved ESD robustness (±500 V CDM). | Preferred for designs requiring tighter thermal warning margin (39–50 kΩ vs 44.5 kΩ nominal) and higher manufacturing ESD immunity. | Select TPS61305AYFFR when production environment demands higher CDM tolerance or finer-grained LED temperature binning. |
| TPS61301YFFR | Lacks TS pin and LED temperature monitoring; retains NRESET, FLASH_SYNC, and same current capabilities (925/1850/925 mA). | Suitable for cost-sensitive camera modules where thermal derating is managed externally or not required. | Choose TPS61301YFFR only if LED thermal monitoring is unnecessary and BOM simplification is prioritized over safety diagnostics. |
Compared with TPS61305YFFR, TPS61305AYFFR offers tighter thermal sensing resolution and higher CDM rating, while TPS61301YFFR removes temperature monitoring entirely - making the original TPS61305YFFR the optimal balance of integrated safety, flash performance, and design flexibility for premium mobile imaging.

FAQ
What is the maximum flash current capability of the TPS61305YFFR in extended high-current mode?
The TPS61305YFFR delivers up to 925 mA on LED1, 1850 mA on LED2, and 925 mA on LED3 when HC_SEL is asserted HIGH. This extended mode leverages energy stored in the output capacitor to achieve xenon-equivalent intensity without exceeding battery peak current limits. The TPS61305YFFR achieves this using internal valley-current limiting and adaptive PWM control, validated across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature.
Does the TPS61305YFFR support automatic LED temperature compensation?
Yes, the TPS61305YFFR supports LED temperature monitoring via its TS pin, which sources 23.8 μA to bias an external NTC thermistor. When the thermistor resistance drops to 44.5 kΩ (typical), the LEDWARN bit is set; at 14.5 kΩ, LEDHOT triggers protective action. This function is exclusive to TPS61305YFFR and TPS61305AYFFR variants - not present in TPS61300 or TPS61301.
How does the FLASH_SYNC pin reduce flash latency in the TPS61305YFFR?
The FLASH_SYNC pin provides hardware-triggered zero-latency flash activation: a rising edge forces immediate transition from DC light to full flash current, with LED2 settling in 400 μs (HC_SEL = LOW) or 16 μs (HC_SEL = HIGH). This bypasses I²C command overhead and ensures precise synchronization with camera shutter timing - a feature confirmed in the TPS61305YFFR's timing specifications table (Section 7.6).
Can the TPS61305YFFR operate as a standard voltage regulator without driving LEDs?
Yes, the TPS61305YFFR can operate in standalone voltage regulation mode by asserting ENVM HIGH, setting VOUT to a fixed 4.95 V with ±2% accuracy. In this mode, LEDx pins are disabled, and the device regulates output using internal feedback - verified in Section 7.5 Electrical Characteristics under "Internal feedback voltage accuracy" and "Voltage regulation mode" test conditions.
What is the purpose of the BAL pin on the TPS61305YFFR?
The BAL pin on the TPS61305YFFR provides active cell balancing for dual-cell supercapacitor configurations. It sinks or sources up to ±15 mA to equalize leakage current mismatch between series-connected storage capacitors, maintaining voltage balance within ±100 mV at 5.7 V VOUT. This extends usable flash energy and cycle life - a capability documented in the "Storage Capacitor Active Cell Balancing" subsection of Section 7.5.
