Product details
Overview
TPS62110MRSAREP from Texas Instruments is a radiation-hardened, extended-temperature synchronous step-down DC-DC converter optimized for point-of-load regulation in harsh environments. It delivers up to 1.5 A output current with adjustable output voltage (1.153 V to 16 V), operates from 3.1 V to 17 V input, achieves 92% efficiency at 12 VIN/3.3 VOUT/600 mA, and features PFM/PWM hybrid mode for high light-load efficiency - used in military avionics power rails and space-qualified payload subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62110MRSAREP datasheet, TPS62110MRSAREP pinout, TPS62110MRSAREP application, or TPS62110MRSAREP equivalent, key selection considerations include its –55°C to 125°C operating range, 20 µA typical quiescent current, 1 MHz nominal switching frequency, 100% duty cycle capability for ultra-low dropout, and QFN-16 (RSA) thermal-pad package with integrated power MOSFETs.
Technical Context
The TPS62110MRSAREP implements voltage-mode PWM control with input-voltage feedforward for fast line/load transient response. Its dual-MOSFET synchronous architecture integrates a 2400 mA current-limited P-channel high-side switch (rDS(on) = 165 mΩ typ at VIN ≥ 5.4 V) and N-channel low-side rectifier (rDS(on) = 145 mΩ typ), eliminating external diode losses.
Operation dynamically shifts between fixed-frequency PWM (SYNC = HIGH) and pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) power-save mode (SYNC = LOW) based on load current. The 1.153 V internal reference feeds the FB comparator, enabling precise output regulation across temperature, while the PG and LBO open-drain outputs provide system-level fault signaling.

Pinout & Package
TPS62110MRSAREP uses a 16-pin QFN package (RSA) with exposed thermal pad, optimized for high-power dissipation in constrained board space. The PowerPAD™ thermal pad must be soldered to AGND for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 16 PGND | Power ground return | Low-inductance path for high-current switch node return; must connect directly to input/output capacitor ground planes. |
| 2, 3 VIN | Main power input | Connects to bulk input capacitor; handles full input current and high dv/dt switching transients. |
| 4 EN | Enable control | Logic-high (>1.3 V) enables regulation; logic-low (<0.3 V) forces shutdown with <2 µA supply current. |
| 5 SYNC | External clock sync input | CMOS-level input (0.3–1.5 V low, >1.5 V high); selects PFM/PWM mode or locks switching frequency to external source. |
| 6 LBO | Open-drain low-battery output | Pulled low when LBI voltage falls below 1.256 V; requires external pullup for system battery monitoring. |
| 7 LBI | Low-battery sense input | High-impedance analog input (10–100 nA leakage); monitors battery voltage via external resistive divider. |
| 8 VINA | Analog supply input | Provides clean bias for control circuitry; decoupled separately from VIN to reduce noise coupling into feedback path. |
| 9 AGND | Analog ground reference | Reference for FB, LBI, and internal bandgap; must be star-connected to PGND near device for noise immunity. |
| 10 FB | Feedback input | Connects to external resistor divider; regulates output by comparing divided voltage to 1.153 V internal reference. |
| 11, 12 GND | Digital/analog ground | Signal ground for EN, SYNC, PG, LBO; tied to AGND and PGND at single point under thermal pad. |
| 13 PG | Open-drain power-good output | Asserts high when VOUT reaches 98.4% of nominal; requires external pullup to VOUT for sequencing. |
| 14, 15 SW | Switch node | Drain connection of internal P/N MOSFETs; connects directly to inductor; carries high-frequency AC current and EMI. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% duty cycle operation | Enables lowest possible dropout - maintains regulation even when VIN approaches VOUT, maximizing battery runtime in portable systems. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for TPS62110MRSAREP to start regulation?
The TPS62110MRSAREP has an undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold of 2.8 V (min) to 3.1 V (max) on the VIN pin. Regulation begins once input voltage rises above the UVLO turn-on threshold of approximately 3.4 V (worst case). Below this, the device remains disabled and draws less than 2 µA. This behavior ensures reliable startup only when sufficient input energy is available, preventing erratic operation during brownout conditions - a critical safeguard in TPS62110MRSAREP-based systems.
How does the SYNC pin affect efficiency and noise performance in TPS62110MRSAREP?
When SYNC is pulled high (>1.5 V), TPS62110MRSAREP operates in forced PWM mode with fixed 1 MHz switching, enabling predictable EMI filtering and stable operation in noise-sensitive applications like RF receivers - though light-load efficiency drops due to continuous switching. When SYNC is low (GND), it enters PFM mode, reducing switching frequency and quiescent current to 20 µA typical, thereby maximizing efficiency at partial loads. This dual-mode capability makes TPS62110MRSAREP adaptable to dynamic system power states without hardware changes.
Can TPS62110MRSAREP operate with 100% duty cycle, and what is its practical benefit?
Yes, TPS62110MRSAREP supports true 100% duty cycle operation, where the high-side P-channel MOSFET remains continuously on. This allows regulation even when input voltage falls nearly to the output voltage level - for example, sustaining 3.3 V output down to ~3.5 V input under load. The benefit is maximized battery utilization in portable or backup systems, extending operational time by extracting energy from the full discharge curve of Li-ion or NiMH cells - a key advantage engineered into the TPS62110MRSAREP architecture.
What is the role of the AGND and PGND pins in TPS62110MRSAREP layout, and how should they be connected?
AGND (pin 9) serves as the quiet analog reference for FB, LBI, and internal bandgap circuits, while PGND (pins 1, 16) carries high-current switch-node return paths. They must be separated on the PCB and joined at a single point - ideally under the exposed thermal pad - to prevent switching noise from corrupting feedback accuracy. Improper grounding causes output ripple, instability, or false PG/LBO assertions. This strict separation is essential for achieving specified performance in every TPS62110MRSAREP implementation.
Does TPS62110MRSAREP include overtemperature protection, and how does it behave?
Yes, TPS62110MRSAREP incorporates thermal shutdown that activates at 145°C junction temperature. When triggered, the device halts switching and enters a safe state until junction temperature falls below the hysteresis threshold (~15°C below trip point). Importantly, thermal shutdown overrides shutdown commands from the EN pin - ensuring protection remains active even if the system attempts to force operation during overheating. This fail-safe behavior is verified across the full –55°C to 125°C operating range and is integral to the TPS62110MRSAREP's qualification for high-reliability applications.
