Product details
Overview
TPS62262DDCR from Texas Instruments is a 1.2-V fixed-output, 600-mA synchronous step-down DC/DC converter in SOT-23-5 package, operating at 2.25 MHz with power-save mode, ±1.5% output voltage accuracy in PWM mode, and 15-μA quiescent current - designed for Li-ion battery-powered mobile phones and portable media players.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62262DDCR datasheet, TPS62262DDCR pinout, TPS62262DDCR application, or TPS62262DDCR equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (2 V to 6 V), fixed 1.2-V output, SOT-23-5 thermal performance (RθJA = 226.9°C/W), and MODE pin absence enabling automatic PFM/PWM transition without external control.
Technical Context
The TPS62262DDCR uses voltage-mode control with input voltage feed-forward for fast line/load regulation and supports 100% duty cycle operation near dropout. Its internal 0.6-V reference and fixed 1.2-V output imply a 2× resistor ratio in adjustable variants - but this device integrates the feedback divider, eliminating FB pin usage.
It lacks a MODE pin (per Device Comparison Table), so it operates exclusively in auto-transition PFM/PWM mode - unlike DRV-package variants. Shutdown current is <1 μA, and thermal shutdown activates at 140°C with 20°C hysteresis, ensuring robustness in compact portable layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2 V - eliminates external feedback resistors and simplifies BOM for dedicated rail generation. |
| Max Output Current | 600 mA at VIN ≥ 2.5 V - sufficient for low-power DSP cores and baseband processors in smartphones. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V), two-cell alkaline (2.0–3.2 V), and 3.3-V/5-V rails. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25 MHz (fixed) - enables use of small 2.2-μH inductors and 10-μF ceramic output capacitors for <1-mm height solutions. |
| Quiescent Current | 15 μA in PFM mode - extends battery runtime during standby or light-load states in always-on subsystems. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.1–1 μA - ensures negligible drain on battery when system is powered off via EN pin assertion. |
| Output Accuracy | ±1.5% in PWM mode - meets tight tolerance requirements for core logic supply in mobile SoCs. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 140°C activation with 20°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload in sealed handheld enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DDC) package: 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body, 1.1-mm max height, exposed pad not present - optimized for cost-sensitive, space-constrained PCBs without thermal pad routing complexity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Accepts 2–6 V; requires local 4.7-μF ceramic decoupling to suppress high-frequency switching noise. |
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for power and control circuits; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; pulling low disables regulator and reduces current draw to <1 μA - used for power sequencing. |
| SW | Power switch node | Connects to external 2.2-μH inductor; carries high di/dt square wave - requires short, wide trace and ground guard ring. |
| FB | Feedback input | Internally connected to fixed 1.2-V divider; must be shorted to VOUT per datasheet - no external resistor required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto PFM/PWM transition | No MODE pin needed - dynamically optimizes efficiency across 10 μA–600 mA load range without firmware or external logic. |
| 100% duty cycle operation | Maintains regulation down to VIN ≈ VOUT + IOUT×(RDS(on) + RL) - extracts maximum energy from aging Li-ion cells. |
| Voltage positioning | +1% output offset in PFM mode - reduces undershoot during sudden load steps (e.g., RF transmit bursts). |
| Fast soft-start | 250-μs VOUT ramp (5%→95%) - limits inrush current and prevents brownout on weak battery sources. |
| Integrated current limiting | Typical 1-A forward current limit - provides short-circuit protection without external sense resistors or ICs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62262DRV | Same IC die in 2-mm × 2-mm WSON-6 package with MODE pin; adds forced PWM capability and lower RθJA (67.8°C/W). | Requires MODE pin routing and layout space for thermal pad - suitable where noise filtering or thermal headroom is critical. | Select TPS62262DRV if fixed-frequency operation is needed for EMI compliance or board area allows WSON thermal pad. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage configuration of the TPS62262DDCR?
The TPS62262DDCR provides a factory-trimmed fixed 1.2-V output. Unlike adjustable variants (e.g., TPS62260), it does not require external feedback resistors - the FB pin is internally connected to generate 1.2 V, simplifying design and reducing BOM count. This configuration is confirmed in the Device Comparison Table and Electrical Characteristics section of the SLVS763E datasheet.
Does the TPS62262DDCR have a MODE pin?
No, the TPS62262DDCR (DDC package) does not include a MODE pin. As documented in the Device Comparison Table, only DRV-package variants (e.g., TPS62262DRV) feature this pin. The DDC version operates exclusively in automatic PFM/PWM transition mode, optimizing efficiency without external mode control - a key differentiator from its WSON counterpart.
What is the recommended inductor value for the TPS62262DDCR?
Texas Instruments specifies 2.2 μH as the optimized inductor value for the TPS62262DDCR, paired with a 10-μF ceramic output capacitor. This combination achieves stable operation, minimal output ripple, and optimal efficiency across the 2–6 V input range. The datasheet explicitly states the device is "optimized for operation with a 2.2-μH inductor and 10-μF output capacitor" in Section 9.2.2.2.
How does the TPS62262DDCR handle thermal overload?
The TPS62262DDCR incorporates thermal shutdown that activates at approximately 140°C junction temperature, turning off both high-side and low-side MOSFETs. Operation resumes once the junction cools below 120°C (20°C hysteresis). This protection is independent of ambient conditions and is validated across the full –40°C to 85°C operating range per Section 7.4 and 8.3.5 of the SLVS763E datasheet.
Can the TPS62262DDCR operate from a single alkaline cell?
Yes, the TPS62262DDCR supports input voltages as low as 2 V, making it compatible with two-cell alkaline batteries (nominal 3 V, discharge down to ~2.0 V per cell). Its 100% duty cycle capability ensures regulation is maintained even as battery voltage drops near the 1.2-V output level - a critical feature for maximizing runtime in remote controls and wireless sensors.
