Product details
Overview
TPS62004DGSR from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output synchronous step-down DC-DC converter delivering 1.8 V at up to 600 mA, operating from 2 V to 5.5 V input, featuring 750 kHz typical switching frequency, 50 µA quiescent current in power-save mode, and pin-programmable 600 mA/1200 mA current limit. It serves as the primary voltage regulator for low-power portable systems powered by single-cell Li-ion or multi-cell alkaline/NiMH batteries.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62004DGSR datasheet, TPS62004DGSR pinout, TPS62004DGSR application, or TPS62004DGSR equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 1.8 V output, VSSOP-10 (DGS) package compatibility, PFM/PWM mode transition behavior, power-good signaling, and ILIM-configurable current limit - all critical for battery-powered embedded designs requiring high light-load efficiency and compact layout.
Technical Context
The TPS62004DGSR implements a current-mode synchronous buck topology with integrated P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs, enabling >95% peak efficiency and 100% duty-cycle operation near dropout. Its control loop uses internal compensation and soft-start (1 ms typical), eliminating external compensation components.
It supports three functional modes via the SYNC pin: forced PWM (SYNC = VIN), power-save PFM/PWM auto-switching (SYNC = GND), or external clock synchronization (500–1000 kHz). The PG open-drain output asserts after 100 µs delay when VOUT exceeds 92% of nominal, and undervoltage lockout disables operation below ~1.6 V on VIN.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8 V ±4% over load/line/temp - enables direct supply to 1.8 V I/O domains without external feedback resistors. |
| 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 (ILIM = GND) or 1200 mA (ILIM = VIN) - selectable via single resistor tie-off, defining safe inductor and thermal design margins. |
| Quiescent Current | 50 µA typical in PFM mode - sustains >85% efficiency at 1 mA load, critical for standby battery life. |
| Switching Frequency | 750 kHz typical (500–1000 kHz sync range) - allows use of compact 10 µH inductors and reduces EMI filtering burden. |
| Power-Good Threshold | 92% of nominal VOUT with 2.5% hysteresis - provides reliable system reset sequencing and rail monitoring. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.1 µA typical - ensures negligible battery drain during deep sleep or system off states. |
Pinout & Package
TPS62004DGSR is housed in a 10-pin VSSOP (DGS) package measuring 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm, optimized for space-constrained portable PCBs. Thermal resistance is RθJA = 160 °C/W, requiring minimal copper area for 600 mA continuous operation at 85°C ambient.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Input power supply | Accepts 2–5.5 V; requires 10 µF ceramic input capacitor placed adjacent to FC and GND. |
| FC (Pin 2) | Input bypass | High-frequency decoupling node; must connect 0.1 µF capacitor directly to VIN and GND. |
| GND (Pin 3) | Analog ground reference | Signal return for FB, EN, SYNC; separate from PGND to minimize noise coupling into error amplifier. |
| PG (Pin 4) | Open-drain power-good indicator | Asserts high when VOUT ≥92% of 1.8 V; requires external pull-up to VOUT or regulated rail. |
| FB (Pin 5) | Feedback input | Internally connected to 1.8 V divider; unused in fixed-output variants - leave unconnected. |
| ILIM (Pin 6) | Current limit select | Tie to GND for 600 mA limit or to VIN for 1200 mA limit; sets peak switch current threshold. |
| SYNC (Pin 7) | Mode control / clock sync | GND = PFM/PWM auto-switching; VIN = forced PWM; external CMOS clock = sync mode (500–1000 kHz). |
| EN (Pin 8) | Enable control | Active-high logic; <0.4 V disables device, reducing IQ to <1 µA; internal pull-down ensures default-off state. |
| L (Pin 9) | Switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt switching current - requires short, wide trace and Kelvin PGND return. |
| PGND (Pin 10) | Power ground | High-current return path for L and internal MOSFETs; must be joined to GND at single point near FC/GND pins. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Integrated P- and N-channel MOSFETs eliminate external diode, reducing conduction loss and improving full-load efficiency to >95%. |
| Antiringing switch | Active only in fixed-output versions (including TPS62004DGSR) to suppress parasitic LC ringing during DCM, lowering radiated EMI. |
| Pin-programmable current limit | Two discrete limits (600 mA / 1200 mA) set by ILIM connection - simplifies BOM management across varying load requirements. |
| 100% duty-cycle operation | Enables dropout operation down to VOUT + ~200 mV (at 600 mA), extending usable battery range in Li-ion discharge profiles. |
| Internal soft-start | 1 ms typical ramp time prevents output overshoot and inrush current - eliminates need for external soft-start circuitry. |

|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62005DGSR | Fixed 1.9 V output; identical package, pinout, and feature set. | Used where system requires 1.9 V logic interface instead of 1.8 V; same thermal and layout design applies. | Select when target rail voltage matches 1.9 V; no schematic or layout changes needed beyond output capacitor re-rating. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the TPS62004DGSR under full load and temperature range?
The TPS62004DGSR delivers 1.8 V with ±4% tolerance across 0–600 mA load, –40°C to 85°C ambient, and 2–5.5 V input. This specification is verified per TI's SLVS294F datasheet Section 7.5, ensuring reliable operation for 1.8 V logic interfaces without external trimming.
Can the TPS62004DGSR operate from a 2.0 V input while delivering 600 mA at 1.8 V?
Yes - the TPS62004DGSR supports 2.0 V minimum input and achieves 100% duty-cycle operation near dropout. At 2.0 V input and 600 mA load, it maintains 1.8 V output with ~200 mV dropout, confirmed in the "Dropout Voltage vs Load Current" characteristic (Figure 1, SLVS294F).
How does the ILIM pin configuration affect current limiting in the TPS62004DGSR?
Connecting ILIM to GND sets the switch current limit to 600 mA (typical); connecting ILIM to VIN raises it to 1200 mA (typical). This selection directly determines inductor saturation rating and thermal design - both configurations are fully supported and validated in the TPS62004DGSR datasheet.
Is an external feedback resistor divider required for the TPS62004DGSR?
No - the TPS62004DGSR is a fixed-output variant with internal 1.8 V feedback divider. The FB pin is internally connected and must remain unconnected in the circuit; external resistors are only required for the adjustable TPS62000 variant.
What is the purpose of the FC pin on the TPS62004DGSR, and how should it be routed?
The FC pin is a dedicated high-frequency input bypass node requiring a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed directly between FC and GND, adjacent to the VIN and GND pins. This minimizes switching noise injection into the input rail and stabilizes internal bias circuitry - routing FC as a star point improves EMI performance.
