Product details
Overview
TPS62202DBVT from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output 1.8 V, 300 mA synchronous step-down DC-DC converter in a 5-pin SOT-23 package, operating from 2.5 V to 6 V input. It delivers up to 95% efficiency at 200 mA with 1 MHz PWM switching and enters power-save mode (PFM) below ~66 mA to maintain high light-load efficiency. It powers low-voltage DSPs and processors in battery-powered portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62202DBVT datasheet, TPS62202DBVT pinout, TPS62202DBVT application, or TPS62202DBVT equivalent, key selection considerations include its fixed 1.8 V output, 15 µA typical quiescent current in PFM mode, 100% duty-cycle low-dropout operation, soft-start functionality, and compatibility with small ceramic input/output capacitors (4.7 µF / 10 µF).
Technical Context
The TPS62202DBVT employs a voltage-mode control architecture with input voltage feed-forward for fast line/load regulation. Its internal 1 MHz oscillator drives synchronous P-channel and N-channel MOSFET switches, enabling stable operation with minimal external components - only one inductor, one input capacitor, and one output capacitor required.
It features dynamic voltage positioning (DVP), where output voltage rises ~0.8% above nominal under light load to minimize undershoot during sudden load steps. Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) activates below ~1.5 V, and enable logic supports precise system-level power sequencing with <1 µA shutdown current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8 V ±3% over 0–300 mA load and 2.5–6 V input - eliminates need for external feedback resistors. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA continuous - sufficient for low-power DSPs, microcontrollers, and RF ICs in handheld devices. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 6.0 V - supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V), 3-cell NiMH/NiCd (3.6–4.5 V), and standard 3.3 V/5 V rails. |
| Quiescent Current | 15 µA typical in power-save mode - extends battery life in standby or intermittent-use applications. |
| Switching Frequency | 1 MHz (650–1500 kHz range) - enables compact magnetics and reduces EMI filtering requirements. |
| Efficiency Peak | Up to 95% at 200 mA with VI = 3.7 V - minimizes thermal stress and improves power density in space-constrained layouts. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.1 µA typical - ensures negligible battery drain when system is powered off via EN pin. |
Pinout & Package
TPS62202DBVT is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package measuring 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm, optimized for high-density portable PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VI (Pin 1) | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.5–6 V; must be decoupled with ≥4.7 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power ground reference | Primary return path for switch current and feedback; requires low-impedance connection to power plane. |
| EN (Pin 3) | Enable control input | Active-high logic: >1.3 V enables regulation; <0.4 V forces shutdown with 0.1 µA IQ; must not float. |
| FB (Pin 4) | Feedback reference node | Internally connected to 0.5 V reference; for fixed-output TPS62202, FB is tied directly to VOUT - no external divider needed. |
| SW (Pin 5) | Switch node | Drives external inductor; carries high di/dt; requires short, low-inductance trace to minimize EMI and voltage spikes. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Power Save Mode (PFM) | Reduces switching frequency and IQ to 15 µA at light loads - maintains >85% efficiency down to 1 mA. |
| Soft Start | Digitally controlled current ramp limits inrush; typical 800 µs startup with 10 µF output cap and 200 mA load. |
| 100% Duty Cycle Operation | P-channel switch remains on at VIN ≈ VOUT - extends usable battery range down to ~1.85 V for 1.8 V output. |
| Dynamic Voltage Positioning | Raises output ~0.8% above nominal at light load - provides headroom to suppress undershoot during 0→300 mA transients. |
| Fast Transient Response | Voltage-mode control with feed-forward achieves <50 µs recovery from 300 mA load step - suitable for burst-mode processors. |
Applications
| Smartphone Baseband Power | PDA Application Processor Supply |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62201DBVT | Fixed 1.5 V output; identical package, pinout, and electrical specs except VO and feedback network. | Requires redesign of output rail; not drop-in for 1.8 V systems but suitable for 1.5 V logic or I/O domains. | Select only if system voltage architecture mandates 1.5 V - no layout change needed, but verify downstream voltage tolerance. |
| TPS62203DBVT | Fixed 3.3 V output; same SOT-23-5 footprint, EN/FB/SW/GND/VI pin mapping, and functional modes. | Not interchangeable without level-shifting; intended for higher-voltage peripherals like SDIO or USB PHY interfaces. | Use when powering 3.3 V subsystems - identical layout and BOM management, but output voltage mismatch prevents direct substitution. |
Compared with TPS62201DBVT and TPS62203DBVT, the TPS62202DBVT provides optimal fit for 1.8 V core supplies in portable SoC designs, balancing efficiency, size, and compatibility - whereas the alternatives serve distinct voltage rails and require intentional system-level assignment rather than functional replacement.

FAQ
What is the output voltage accuracy of the TPS62202DBVT over temperature and load?
The TPS62202DBVT delivers 1.8 V output with ±3% accuracy across the full operating ambient temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and full load range (0–300 mA). This specification holds for input voltages from 2.5 V to 6.0 V, as confirmed in Section 6.5 of the SLVS417F datasheet. The internal 0.5 V reference and precision feedback network ensure tight regulation without external trimming.
Does the TPS62202DBVT require an external feedback resistor divider?
No, the TPS62202DBVT does not require an external feedback resistor divider. As a fixed-output variant, its internal feedback network is factory-trimmed to 1.8 V, and the FB pin is internally connected to the output. External resistors are only needed for adjustable versions like the TPS62200 - using them with the TPS62202DBVT would disrupt regulation and is not supported.
Can the TPS62202DBVT operate with input voltage lower than 2.5 V?
No, the TPS62202DBVT has a minimum recommended input voltage of 2.5 V per Section 6.3 of the datasheet. Below this, undervoltage lockout (UVLO) disables switching, and operation is not guaranteed. While absolute maximum rating allows –0.3 V, functional operation ceases near 1.5 V UVLO threshold - it cannot regulate 1.8 V output from a fully depleted 1.8 V battery.
What is the purpose of dynamic voltage positioning in the TPS62202DBVT?
Dynamic voltage positioning (DVP) in the TPS62202DBVT raises the output voltage ~0.8% above nominal (to ~1.814 V) under light load conditions. This intentional overvoltage provides margin to absorb voltage droop during rapid load steps from idle to full 300 mA, reducing required output capacitance and improving transient response without compromising steady-state accuracy.
How does the enable (EN) pin function on the TPS62202DBVT?
The EN pin on the TPS62202DBVT is an active-high digital control input. Pulling EN ≥1.3 V enables regulation with soft-start; pulling EN ≤0.4 V forces shutdown with <1 µA supply current. The pin must never be left floating - TI specifies mandatory termination to either VI or GND via a pull-up/down resistor to ensure deterministic startup and shutdown behavior.
