Product details
Overview
TPS62262DDCT from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output 1.2-V, 600-mA synchronous step-down DC/DC converter in SOT-23-5 package, operating at 2.25-MHz fixed switching frequency with power-save mode for high efficiency across light-to-heavy loads, used in portable Li-ion–powered systems such as smartphones and portable media players.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62262DDCT datasheet, TPS62262DDCT pinout, TPS62262DDCT application, or TPS62262DDCT equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (2 V to 6 V), quiescent current (15 μA in PFM mode), output voltage accuracy (±1.5% in PWM mode), thermal shutdown threshold (140°C), and MODE pin–enabled PWM/PSM mode control.
Technical Context
The TPS62262DDCT uses voltage-mode control with input-voltage feed-forward for fast line/load regulation and supports automatic transition between 2.25-MHz PWM and pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) modes based on load. Its internal 0.6-V reference and fixed 1.2-V output eliminate external feedback resistors.
It integrates high-side (480 mΩ max RDS(on)) and low-side (380 mΩ max RDS(on)) MOSFETs, features dynamic voltage positioning (+1% during light loads), 100% duty-cycle operation near dropout, and undervoltage lockout (1.85 V falling threshold).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2 V ±1.5% in PWM mode - eliminates need for external resistor divider and simplifies layout. |
| Max Output Current | 600 mA at VIN ≥ 2.5 V - supports core logic rails in mobile SoCs and DSPs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2 V to 6 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V), two/three-cell alkaline, and 3.3/5-V rails. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25 MHz (±12.5%) - enables use of small 2.2-μH inductors and 10-μF ceramic output capacitors. |
| Quiescent Current | 15 μA (PFM mode, no switching) - extends battery life in standby and low-power states. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.1–1 μA - ensures minimal battery drain when EN = GND. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 140°C (typical), 20°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DDC) package: 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm footprint, 1.1-mm height, thermally enhanced padless construction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Accepts 2–6 V; must be decoupled with ≥4.7-μF ceramic capacitor close to pin. |
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for power and control circuits; connects to PCB ground plane. |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic; pull high to enable, low to enter <1-μA shutdown state. |
| FB | Feedback input | Internally connected to 1.2-V output; no external resistor network required. |
| SW | Switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt; requires tight loop routing to minimize EMI. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dynamic Voltage Positioning | Maintains +1% output offset in PFM mode to reduce load-step undershoot/overshoot without external compensation. |
| 100% Duty-Cycle Operation | Extends usable battery range by sustaining regulation down to VIN ≈ VOUT + IOUT×(RDS(on)+RL). |
| Integrated Power MOSFETs | Eliminates external high/low-side switches; reduces BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Soft-Start Ramp | 250-μs 5%→95% VOUT ramp limits inrush current and prevents input rail collapse. |
| Undervoltage Lockout | Disables regulator below 1.85 V (falling) to prevent brownout operation and excessive battery discharge. |
Applications

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 electrical specs but in 2×2-mm WSON-6 package with MODE pin; adds forced-PWM capability. | Requires PCB redesign for 6-pin WSON footprint and MODE signal routing. | Select when fixed-frequency operation under light load is mandatory for EMI-sensitive systems. |
| TPS62231DRC | 1.2-V fixed, 300-mA output, 3-MHz switching, 17-μA IQ; smaller 2×2-mm WSON-6 package. | Lower current rating limits use to sub-300-mA MCU cores or peripherals. | Select when board space is constrained and 300-mA peak load suffices, e.g., Bluetooth LE modules. |
Compared with TPS62262DRV, the TPS62262DDCT saves board area with SOT-23-5 but lacks MODE control; compared with TPS62231DRC, it delivers double the output current at slightly lower switching frequency-making it optimal for 1.2-V, 600-mA portable rails where thermal headroom and transient robustness are critical.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the TPS62262DDCT in PWM mode?
The TPS62262DDCT has an output voltage tolerance of ±1.5% in PWM mode over temperature (–40°C to 85°C), input voltage (2.5 V to 6 V), and load (0 mA to 600 mA). This specification is guaranteed per TI's SLVS763E datasheet Section 7.5, and applies to the fixed 1.2-V output version. The TPS62262DDCT does not require external feedback resistors due to its internal precision voltage divider.
Does the TPS62262DDCT support forced PWM mode?
No, the TPS62262DDCT does not support forced PWM mode because it uses the DDC (SOT-23-5) package, which omits the MODE pin. Only the DRV (WSON-6) variants-such as TPS62262DRV-include the MODE pin for forcing fixed-frequency operation. The TPS62262DDCT automatically transitions between PWM and PFM modes based on load current, optimizing efficiency without external control.
What is the minimum input voltage required for the TPS62262DDCT to maintain 1.2-V regulation at 600 mA?
The minimum input voltage for the TPS62262DDCT to sustain 1.2-V output at 600 mA is calculated as VINmin = VOUT + IOUT × (RDS(on)HIGH + RL). Using max RDS(on) = 480 mΩ and typical inductor DCR = 110 mΩ, VINmin ≈ 1.2 V + 0.6 A × 0.59 Ω = 1.554 V. However, due to undervoltage lockout (1.85 V falling threshold), practical minimum VIN is 1.95 V. The TPS62262DDCT enters 100% duty cycle below ~1.8 V but will shut down before reaching that point.
Can the TPS62262DDCT be used with a 2.2-μH inductor and 10-μF output capacitor?
Yes, the TPS62262DDCT is explicitly optimized for use with a 2.2-μH inductor and 10-μF ceramic output capacitor, as confirmed in TI's SLVS763E datasheet Section 9.2.2.2. This combination achieves stable operation, low output ripple (<15 mVPP), and optimal transient response. The device supports inductor values from 1.5 μH to 4.7 μH and output capacitance from 4.7 μF to 22 μF, but deviating from the 2.2-μH/10-μF pair may require re-evaluation of stability and ripple performance.
What thermal considerations apply to the TPS62262DDCT in SOT-23-5 package?
The TPS62262DDCT in SOT-23-5 (DDC) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 226.9°C/W, significantly higher than the WSON-6 variant (67.8°C/W). To maintain safe operation at 600 mA continuous load, the PCB must provide adequate copper area (≥250 mm² of 1-oz inner/outer layer copper connected to GND pins) and avoid enclosure-level ambient temperatures above 60°C. Thermal shutdown triggers at 140°C junction temperature, with 20°C hysteresis-so derating is essential for sustained high-current operation.
