Product details
Overview
TPS62003DGSG4 from Texas Instruments is a synchronous step-down DC-DC converter optimized for low-power portable systems, delivering up to 600 mA output current with 95% peak efficiency at 3.6 V input and 2.5 V output. It features adjustable switching frequency (500–1000 kHz), pin-programmable current limit (600 mA or 1200 mA), and operates from 2 V to 5.5 V input across –40°C to 85°C ambient.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62003DGSG4 datasheet, TPS62003DGSG4 pinout, TPS62003DGSG4 application, or TPS62003DGSG4 equivalent, key selection considerations include its PFM/PWM hybrid control mode, 50 μA quiescent current in power-save mode, 10-pin VSSOP (DGS) package, and fixed 1.5 V output voltage configuration.
Technical Context
The TPS62003DGSG4 implements current-mode control with internal slope compensation and a 750 kHz nominal switching frequency. Its synchronous rectification uses integrated P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs, enabling 100% duty-cycle operation for ultra-low dropout and eliminating external diode losses.
It supports three functional modes via the SYNC pin: forced PWM (SYNC = VIN), power-save PFM/PWM auto-switching (SYNC = GND), and external clock synchronization (500–1000 kHz). The ILIM pin selects between 600 mA and 1200 mA switch current limits, while the PG open-drain output signals valid regulation at ≥92% of nominal output.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V - no external feedback divider required; simplifies layout and improves stability. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V), 2–3 cell NiMH/alkaline, and USB-powered systems. |
| Max Output Current | 600 mA - achievable with ILIM tied to GND; enables direct powering of low-power CPUs and DSPs. |
| Quiescent Current | 50 μA (typ) in PFM mode - extends battery life in standby and light-load conditions. |
| Switching Frequency | 750 kHz (nominal), synchronizable 500–1000 kHz - allows EMI control and small 10 μH inductor use. |
| Efficiency | 95% at 3.6 VIN/2.5 VOUT/200 mA - high conversion efficiency reduces thermal load in compact enclosures. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.1 μA (max) - ensures near-zero leakage during system sleep or off-state. |
Pinout & Package
TPS62003DGSG4 is housed in a 10-pin VSSOP (DGS) package measuring 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm, optimized for space-constrained portable designs. Thermal resistance RθJA is 160°C/W, supporting operation up to 85°C ambient without forced airflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Power input | Accepts 2–5.5 V supply; requires 10 μF input capacitor for stable operation. |
| FC (Pin 2) | Input bypass | High-frequency decoupling node; must connect 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor close to pin. |
| GND (Pin 3) | Analog ground | Reference for control circuitry; separate from PGND to minimize noise coupling. |
| PG (Pin 4) | Power good indicator | Open-drain output active high when VOUT ≥92% of 1.5 V; requires external pull-up. |
| FB (Pin 5) | Feedback reference | Internally connected to 1.5 V divider; unused in fixed-output variants like TPS62003DGSG4. |
| ILIM (Pin 6) | Current limit select | Tie to GND for 600 mA limit (default for TPS62003); tie to VIN for 1200 mA limit. |
| SYNC (Pin 7) | Mode control | GND = PFM/PWM auto-switching; VIN = forced PWM; external clock = sync mode (500–1000 kHz). |
| EN (Pin 8) | Enable input | Active-high logic; <0.4 V disables device, reducing IQ to <1 μA. |
| L (Pin 9) | Switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt switching current; requires tight layout and ground plane. |
| PGND (Pin 10) | Power ground | Return path for high-current switch loop; must be connected separately to minimize ground bounce. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Integrated P- and N-channel MOSFETs eliminate external diode, improving efficiency by ~10% vs. asynchronous designs. |
| PFM/PWM hybrid control | Automatically transitions between fixed-frequency PWM (moderate/heavy load) and variable-frequency PFM (light load) to maintain >85% efficiency down to 1 mA. |
| Internal soft-start | ~1 ms ramp time prevents output overshoot and inrush current during enable, protecting downstream loads. |
| Antiringing switch (fixed-VOUT) | Active only in fixed-output versions (e.g., TPS62003DGSG4); suppresses parasitic oscillation in DCM, reducing EMI. |
| Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) | Activates below ~1.6 V on VIN; prevents erratic startup and protects battery from deep discharge. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62002DGSG4 | Fixed 1.2 V output; identical pinout, package, and feature set. | Requires redesign of power tree if 1.2 V rail needed instead of 1.5 V. | Select when lower core voltage is mandated by SoC requirements. |
| TPS62040DRCR | Higher 2 A output, 2.5–6 V input, 3-MHz switching, smaller 10-pin WSON package. | Supports higher current loads but lacks PG output and UVLO threshold matching. | Choose for next-generation designs needing scalability beyond 600 mA with tighter board area constraints. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage of the TPS62003DGSG4?
The TPS62003DGSG4 provides a factory-trimmed fixed output voltage of 1.5 V. This eliminates the need for external feedback resistors, simplifying design, improving accuracy (±3% over load/temperature), and enhancing stability compared to adjustable variants. The internal resistor divider is permanently configured for 1.5 V, and the FB pin is not user-accessible in this variant.
Does the TPS62003DGSG4 support external clock synchronization?
Yes, the TPS62003DGSG4 supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC pin. When driven with a CMOS-level signal between 500 kHz and 1000 kHz, the device locks to the external clock, enabling precise EMI control and system-level timing coordination. If the external clock stops, the device automatically reverts to its internal 750 kHz oscillator within ≤8 μs.
How does the TPS62003DGSG4 manage efficiency at light loads?
The TPS62003DGSG4 maintains high efficiency at light loads using automatic PFM/PWM mode switching. Below ~120 mA, it enters pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) mode-reducing switching frequency and holding peak inductor current constant-achieving 50 μA quiescent current and >85% efficiency down to 1 mA. This extends battery runtime in standby states without manual mode control.
What is the purpose of the ILIM pin on the TPS62003DGSG4?
The ILIM pin on the TPS62003DGSG4 sets the internal switch current limit: tying ILIM to GND configures a typical 600 mA limit (the default for TPS62003DGSG4), while connecting it to VIN raises the limit to 1200 mA. This allows one PCB layout to support multiple output current requirements without changing the IC footprint or inductor value.
Can the TPS62003DGSG4 operate with input voltage below 2 V?
No, the TPS62003DGSG4 has a specified minimum input voltage of 2 V per its recommended operating conditions. Although the undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold is typically 1.6 V, operation below 2 V is not guaranteed-parameters like output accuracy, efficiency, and start-up reliability are not characterized or supported. For sub-2 V operation, consider TI's TPS6274x series or other ultra-low-VIN regulators.
