Product details
Overview
TPS62405QDRCRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified dual synchronous step-down DC-DC converter for automotive infotainment and ADAS systems, delivering 400 mA on OUT1 (1.215 V or 1.925 V selectable) and 600 mA on OUT2 (3.35 V fixed), operating from 2.5 V to 6 V input with 2.25-MHz fixed-frequency PWM mode and power-save mode at light loads.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62405QDRCRQ1 datasheet, TPS62405QDRCRQ1 pinout, TPS62405QDRCRQ1 application, or TPS62405QDRCRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-rail voltage configuration via DEF_1 pin, 180° out-of-phase operation for reduced input ripple, ±1% output accuracy in PWM mode, 32-μA typical quiescent current for both converters, and thermal shutdown at 150°C with 20°C hysteresis.
Technical Context
The TPS62405QDRCRQ1 integrates two independent voltage-mode synchronous buck converters sharing a 2.25-MHz oscillator with 180° phase shift, enabling interleaved operation to reduce input RMS current and capacitor stress. Each converter features P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs with integrated current limiting (0.68–0.92 A for OUT1, 0.85–1.15 A for OUT2) and internal compensation.
Converter 1 supports digital voltage selection via DEF_1 pin (1.215 V low / 1.925 V high), while Converter 2 provides fixed 3.35 V output; both support EasyScale™ one-wire interface for dynamic voltage scaling. MODE/DATA pin controls PFM/PWM mode selection and serves as bidirectional serial interface with open-drain acknowledge.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 2.5 V to 6 V - supports direct connection to automotive battery (cold-crank down to 2.5 V) and 3.3/5 V rails. |
| OUT1 Current / Voltage | 400 mA @ 1.215 V or 1.925 V - pin-selectable dual fixed outputs for processor core and I/O rail sequencing. |
| OUT2 Current / Voltage | 600 mA @ 3.35 V - dedicated fixed output for peripherals, sensors, or interface logic. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25 MHz (typ) - enables use of compact 2.2 μH inductors and ceramic capacitors for space-constrained automotive modules. |
| Quiescent Current | 32 μA (both converters, no load, PFM mode) - extends battery runtime in always-on vehicle subsystems. |
| Output Accuracy | ±1% in PWM mode - ensures stable power delivery to sensitive analog and digital circuits without external calibration. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C with 20°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design in under-hood environments. |
Pinout & Package
TPS62405QDRCRQ1 is housed in a 10-pin VSON package (3.0 mm × 3.0 mm) with exposed thermal pad connected to GND for enhanced thermal performance in automotive applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ADJ2 | Converter 2 feedback adjust | Must be shorted to VOUT2 in fixed-output mode; not used for external resistor setting in TPS62405QDRCRQ1. |
| DEF_1 | Converter 1 voltage select | Digital input: low = 1.215 V, high = 1.925 V - enables simple dynamic voltage scaling without external components. |
| EN1 / EN2 | Independent enable inputs | Active-high control for staggered startup, power sequencing, or fault-isolation between rails. |
| FB1 | Converter 1 feedback sense | Internally connected to fixed resistor divider; must tie directly to VOUT1 for regulation stability. |
| MODE/DATA | Mode control & serial interface | Low = auto PFM/PWM; high = forced PWM; also carries EasyScale™ commands with open-drain ACK. |
| SW1 / SW2 | Power switch nodes | Connect to 2.2 μH inductors; require low-ESR ceramic output caps (2 × 10 μF per rail) and feedforward cap (33 pF) on SW2. |
| VIN | Main power input | Accepts 2.5–6 V with undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold of 2.4 V (rising) to prevent brownout operation. |
| GND | Power and signal ground | Shared reference for both converters; thermal pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for RθJC(bot) = 3.1°C/W. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature - validated for engine bay and dashboard-mounted automotive electronics. |
| 180° out-of-phase dual operation | Reduces input ripple current by ~30% vs. in-phase operation - lowers required input capacitance and EMI filter size. |
| EasyScale™ one-wire interface | Enables real-time output voltage adjustment of both rails using single MODE/DATA pin - eliminates need for I²C/SPI controllers. |
| 100% duty cycle capability | Supports dropout operation down to VIN – VOUT ≈ 0 V - critical for maintaining 3.35 V rail during cold-crank (VIN = 3.2 V). |
| Integrated power-save mode | Automatically transitions from PWM to PFM below ~12.5 mA load (VIN/32 Ω) - maintains >85% efficiency at 1 mA output. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62402QDRCRQ1 | OUT1 defaults to 1.2 V / 1.8 V (not 1.215 V / 1.925 V); identical package, pinout, and electrical specs otherwise. | Suitable for designs where 1.8 V core rail is preferred over 1.925 V for legacy SoCs or lower power consumption. | Select when exact 1.925 V is not required and cost optimization favors higher-volume variant. |
| TPS62404QDRCRQ1 | OUT1 defaults to 1.2 V / 1.9 V (vs. 1.215 V / 1.925 V); same 3.3 V OUT2 (not 3.35 V); otherwise identical functionality. | Better matched to processors specifying nominal 1.9 V core voltage; 3.3 V rail aligns with standard I/O voltage references. | Choose for compatibility with existing 1.9 V/3.3 V reference designs or where tighter tolerance on 3.3 V is needed. |
Compared with TPS62405QDRCRQ1, TPS62402QDRCRQ1 offers marginally lower core voltage options but lacks the precise 1.925 V required for newer automotive SoCs, while TPS62404QDRCRQ1 trades 3.35 V accuracy for broader 3.3 V compatibility-neither is pin-compatible without firmware or layout revision due to different default voltage mappings.

FAQ
What is the default output voltage configuration of TPS62405QDRCRQ1?
The TPS62405QDRCRQ1 has two fixed output voltages: OUT1 is selectable between 1.215 V (DEF_1 = low) and 1.925 V (DEF_1 = high), while OUT2 is fixed at 3.35 V. These values are factory-trimmed and do not require external resistors - the ADJ2 pin must be tied directly to VOUT2, and FB1 must connect to VOUT1 for regulation.
Does TPS62405QDRCRQ1 support dynamic voltage scaling during operation?
Yes, TPS62405QDRCRQ1 supports real-time dynamic voltage scaling via its EasyScale™ one-wire serial interface on the MODE/DATA pin. This allows software-controlled adjustment of both OUT1 and OUT2 voltages without requiring additional communication buses or external DACs - the interface uses open-drain acknowledge with 400–520 μs pulse width.
What is the thermal performance of TPS62405QDRCRQ1 in automotive environments?
TPS62405QDRCRQ1 features a 10-pin VSON package with exposed thermal pad, achieving RθJC(bot) = 3.1°C/W and RθJA = 42.7°C/W. It includes thermal shutdown at 150°C with 20°C hysteresis, and is qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C TJ), making it suitable for under-dash and engine-compartment-adjacent placements with proper PCB copper area.
How does the MODE/DATA pin function in TPS62405QDRCRQ1?
The MODE/DATA pin on TPS62405QDRCRQ1 serves dual roles: when held low, it enables automatic power-save mode (PFM at light loads, PWM at heavy loads); when pulled high, it forces fixed-frequency PWM operation across all loads. It also functions as the bidirectional EasyScale™ serial interface for output voltage programming, with open-drain acknowledge capability.
Can TPS62405QDRCRQ1 operate with input voltage as low as 2.5 V?
Yes, TPS62405QDRCRQ1 operates across 2.5 V to 6 V input range and includes undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with rising threshold at 2.4 V. At VIN = 2.5 V, it sustains 1.215 V output with 100% duty cycle, enabling reliable operation during automotive cold-crank events where battery voltage dips below 3 V.
