Product details
Overview
TPS62321YEDR from Texas Instruments is a 500-mA, 3-MHz synchronous step-down DC-DC converter in Chip Scale Package (CSP-8), delivering fixed 1.5 V output from 2.7–6 V input with up to 93% efficiency, 86 µA quiescent current, and integrated active power-down sequencing - designed for battery-powered mobile phones and smart-phones.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62321YEDR datasheet, TPS62321YEDR pinout, TPS62321YEDR application, or TPS62321YEDR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.5 V fixed output, CSP-8 thermal performance (250°C/W θJA), 35 ns minimum on-time, PFM/PWM auto-mode transition, and integrated discharge resistor for controlled power-down sequencing.
Technical Context
The TPS62321YEDR employs voltage-mode control with input voltage feed-forward for fast load/line transient response and supports seamless on-the-fly mode switching between PFM (light-load) and PWM (heavy-load). Its dual MOSFET current limiting (P-MOS: 670–890 mA; N-MOS: ±460–±740 mA) ensures stable operation during low-duty-cycle and start-up conditions.
It integrates a 3-MHz oscillator with ±0.35 MHz tolerance, supports external synchronization via MODE/SYNC pin, and features a dedicated discharge resistor (30–50 Ω) for active power-down sequencing - a capability exclusive to the TPS6232x family and absent in TPS6230x/TPS6231x variants.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±0.5% over –40°C to +85°C - enables direct powering of core logic in TI TMS320™ DSPs and ARM-based smartphone SoCs without external feedback resistors. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 6 V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V), 3-cell NiMH/NiCd (3.6 V nominal), and USB-powered systems. |
| Max Output Current | 500 mA continuous - sufficient for baseband processors, RF transceivers, and memory subsystems in compact portable devices. |
| Switching Frequency | 3 MHz (2.65–3.35 MHz range) - allows use of sub-1 µH inductors (e.g., 0.9 µH) and 4.7 µF ceramic output capacitors, minimizing solution footprint. |
| Quiescent Current | 86 µA in PFM mode - extends battery life in standby/sleep states of always-on mobile applications. |
| Shutdown Current | <1 µA - meets ultra-low-power requirements for system-level power gating. |
| Thermal Resistance | 250°C/W (θJA, CSP-8 package) - requires careful PCB copper area design for thermal management at full load. |
Pinout & Package
TPS62321YEDR is packaged in an 8-pin Chip Scale Package (CSP-8) with bottom-side ball layout and 0.5 mm pitch. The package provides low thermal resistance (250°C/W) and minimal board footprint (1.5 × 1.5 mm), optimized for space-constrained mobile designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Connects to main input rail (2.7–6 V); must be decoupled with ≥4.7 µF ceramic capacitor near package. |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; pull to GND for shutdown (<1 µA ISD), tie to VIN for operation. |
| MODE/SYNC | Mode selection & sync input | Pull to GND for auto PFM/PWM; pull to VIN for forced PWM; accept 2.65–3.35 MHz external clock for master-slave synchronization. |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers fixed 1.5 V; connect directly to load and output capacitor; no external feedback required. |
| PGND | Power ground | High-current return path for internal switches; must be connected to solid ground plane under package. |
| SW | Switch node | Drain connection of internal P/N-MOSFETs; routes to inductor; sensitive to layout parasitics affecting EMI and efficiency. |
| AGND | Analog ground | Reference for internal error amplifier and bandgap; connect to PGND via short trace or thermal pad under IC. |
| FB | Feedback sense | Not connected internally on fixed-output TPS62321YEDR; must remain unconnected per datasheet to avoid malfunction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Power-Down Sequencing | 30–50 Ω internal discharge resistor actively pulls VOUT to GND during shutdown - eliminates need for external circuitry in multi-rail systems requiring controlled voltage ramp-down. |
| 35 ns Minimum On-Time | Enables high step-down ratios (e.g., 6 V → 1.5 V at 3 MHz) without pulse-skipping instability, supporting wide VIN/VOUT combinations with fixed-frequency operation. |
| PFM/PWM Auto-Transition | Seamlessly shifts between high-efficiency PFM (light load) and low-noise PWM (heavy load) without external control - maintains >85% efficiency from 1 mA to 500 mA. |
| 100% Duty Cycle Operation | Allows dropout as low as VOUT + 100 mV (e.g., 1.5 V output with 1.6 V input) - critical for battery brownout survival in Li-ion systems nearing end-of-discharge. |
| 3-MHz Synchronization | Accepts external clock on MODE/SYNC pin to align switching edges across multiple converters - reduces beat frequencies and simplifies EMI filtering in multi-rail PMIC designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62320YED | Adjustable output (0.6–5.4 V) via external resistor divider; lacks integrated power-down sequencing resistor. | Suitable where dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is required; not appropriate for fixed 1.5 V systems needing controlled shutdown. | Select TPS62320YED only if output voltage programmability is needed and external discharge circuitry can be added. |
| TPS62313YZD | Fixed 1.8 V output; identical CSP-8 package and 3-MHz operation, but no power-down sequencing or MODE/SYNC sync capability. | Applicable in 1.8 V I/O or memory rails where sequencing is handled externally; lower BOM cost where sync is unnecessary. | Choose TPS62313YZD for cost-sensitive 1.8 V applications without sequencing or synchronization requirements. |
Compared with TPS62321YEDR, TPS62320YED offers voltage flexibility at the expense of sequencing functionality, while TPS62313YZD trades 1.5 V precision and sync capability for lower unit cost in non-critical 1.8 V rails - making TPS62321YEDR the sole option for 1.5 V systems requiring integrated, reliable power-down control.

FAQ
What is the output voltage accuracy of the TPS62321YEDR over temperature?
The TPS62321YEDR delivers fixed 1.5 V output with ±0.5% DC voltage accuracy over the full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. This specification is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Fixed output voltage dc accuracy" for TPS6232x devices at TA = –40°C to 85°C, ensuring stable core voltage for sensitive digital loads across environmental extremes.
Does the TPS62321YEDR require external feedback resistors?
No, the TPS62321YEDR does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed-output variant, its 1.5 V regulation is implemented internally - the FB pin is unconnected per datasheet guidance, and the ADJ pin must remain floating or unconnected. Adding external components to these pins may disrupt regulation or cause malfunction.
Can the TPS62321YEDR be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes, the TPS62321YEDR supports external clock synchronization via the MODE/SYNC pin. When driven with a 2.65–3.35 MHz square wave (20–80% duty cycle), it locks its internal 3-MHz oscillator to the external signal's falling edge - enabling precise phase alignment across multiple TPS62321YEDR units in multi-rail systems.
What is the purpose of the integrated discharge resistor in the TPS62321YEDR?
The TPS62321YEDR integrates a 30–50 Ω discharge resistor between VOUT and PGND, activated during shutdown (EN = GND). This ensures rapid, controlled ramp-down of the output voltage - eliminating hold-up time and preventing latch-up in downstream logic, a feature unique to the TPS6232x series and absent in TPS6230x/TPS6231x variants.
Is the TPS62321YEDR pin-compatible with other TPS623xx CSP-8 variants?
Yes, the TPS62321YEDR shares identical CSP-8 pinout and footprint with all TPS623xx family members in the YED/YZD package variants, including TPS62320YED, TPS62313YZD, and TPS62303YZD. This allows drop-in replacement for functional evaluation or BOM optimization - provided output voltage, sequencing, and sync requirements align.
