Product details
Overview
TPS62802YKAT from Texas Instruments is a 4 MHz synchronous step-down DC-DC converter in a 6-pin WCSP package, delivering up to 1 A output current with 2.3 µA quiescent current and 1% output voltage accuracy over 1.8 V–3.3 V range. It employs DCS-Control topology for fast transient response and supports R2D-based flexible VOUT selection via a single external resistor.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62802YKAT datasheet, TPS62802YKAT pinout, TPS62802YKAT application, or TPS62802YKAT equivalent, this device is selected for ultra-low-power battery-operated systems requiring high efficiency at microamp loads, minimal PCB area (<5 mm²), and sub-0.6 mm height constraints - especially where programmable output voltage and forced PWM mode are critical.
Technical Context
The TPS62802YKAT integrates TI's DCS-Control topology, combining hysteretic and voltage-mode control to enable seamless PFM-to-PWM transition, low output ripple, and excellent load transient response. Its R2D (resistor-to-digital) converter reads an external resistor on the VSEL/MODE pin to select one of 16 output voltages within 1.8 V–3.3 V (100 mV steps) or fixes VOUT to 1.8 V when tied to GND.
It features smart enable logic with internal 500 kΩ pulldown, output discharge via VOS pin, 100% duty cycle operation, and thermal shutdown at 160°C with 20°C hysteresis. The device operates across 1.75 V–5.5 V input, supports 0201 passive integration, and maintains stable regulation with 0.33–0.82 µH inductors and 2–26 µF output capacitance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 1.75 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion, 2×AA, or USB-powered systems without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 3.3 V in 100 mV steps - enables precise rail matching for MCU I/O, RF transceivers, or sensors. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.3 µA in power save mode - extends battery life in always-on wearable or IoT sleep states. |
| Switching Frequency | 4 MHz (PWM mode) - allows use of tiny 0.47 µH inductors and reduces solution size vs. 1.5 MHz alternatives. |
| Output Accuracy | ±1% at 25°C–85°C (PWM mode) - ensures reliable logic-level compliance without external trimming. |
| Max Output Current | 1 A (VIN ≥ 2.3 V) - sufficient for powering ARM Cortex-M cores, BLE SoCs, or display drivers. |
| Package | 6-pin DSBGA (YKA), 1.05 mm × 0.70 mm, 0.35 mm pitch - fits ultra-compact layouts with <5 mm² footprint. |
Pinout & Package
TPS62802YKAT uses a 6-pin Wafer Chip Scale Package (DSBGA, YKA) measuring 1.05 mm × 0.70 mm with 0.35 mm pitch. The package supports <0.6 mm board height and is optimized for 0201 passive integration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (A1) | Power ground | Primary return path for VIN, VOS, and SW; must be connected near input/output capacitor GND pads to minimize noise. |
| VIN (B1) | Input power supply | Accepts 1.75–5.5 V; requires local 4.7 µF ceramic capacitor for EMI suppression and voltage spike mitigation. |
| VSEL/MODE (C1) | Configurable dual-function pin | During startup: sets VOUT via R2D reading of external resistor (10–249 kΩ); after startup: selects PWM (high) or PFM (low) mode. |
| VOS (A2) | Output voltage sense & discharge | Connects directly to output capacitor; enables internal discharge MOSFET to pull VOUT to GND when EN = low. |
| SW (B2) | Switch node | Drives external inductor; requires short, low-inductance trace to minimize switching losses and EMI. |
| EN (C2) | Enable control | High-active with internal 500 kΩ pulldown; monotonic rising edge required to avoid false enable; disables regulator and activates VOS discharge. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| DCS-Control topology | Enables simultaneous fast transient response, low output ripple, and seamless PFM/PWM transition without external compensation. |
| R2D voltage selection | Replaces traditional resistor divider with single external resistor (E96, 1%, ≤30 pF parasitic), improving accuracy and reducing BOM count. |
| Output discharge via VOS | Actively discharges VOUT through internal MOSFET when disabled - prevents floating rails and ensures defined power-down sequencing. |
| Smart enable with pulldown | Internal 500 kΩ EN pulldown prevents unintended startup; pulldown disconnects post-power-up to avoid interference with active control. |
| 100% duty cycle operation | Maintains regulation down to VIN ≈ VOUT (e.g., 1.8 V out from 2.0 V input), eliminating dropout-related brownouts. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62808YKAT | Same 6-pin WCSP package and 1.8–3.3 V range, but rated for 0.6 A max output and 1.5 MHz switching frequency. | Lower output current and slower switching limit inductor size reduction and light-load efficiency in space-constrained designs. | Select TPS62808YKAT only if 0.6 A suffices and lower EMI priority outweighs peak efficiency needs. |
| TPS6208818RTER | 3-mm × 2-mm QFN-11 package, 1.8 V fixed output, 1 A rating, 2.5 MHz switching, 1.5 µA IQ. | Larger footprint and different pinout prevent drop-in replacement; lacks R2D programmability and VOS discharge. | Choose TPS6208818RTER for higher thermal performance in thermally constrained boards where programmability is unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS62808YKAT and TPS6208818RTER, the TPS62802YKAT uniquely combines 1 A capability, 4 MHz operation, R2D configurability, and integrated VOS discharge in a <5 mm² WCSP - making it optimal for next-gen wearables demanding both miniaturization and functional flexibility.

FAQ
What is the fixed output voltage of TPS62802YKAT when VSEL/MODE is grounded?
The TPS62802YKAT delivers a fixed 1.8 V output when the VSEL/MODE pin is connected directly to GND. This configuration bypasses the R2D converter and eliminates the need for an external resistor, simplifying design for applications requiring only that specific rail. The 1.8 V setting is factory-trimmed and maintains ±1% accuracy across temperature and load conditions, as specified in the device comparison table and electrical characteristics section of the datasheet.
Does TPS62802YKAT support forced PWM mode, and how is it activated?
Yes, the TPS62802YKAT supports forced PWM mode. After the device completes startup and the R2D conversion, applying a logic-high level (≥0.8 V) to the VSEL/MODE pin switches the regulator from automatic PFM/PWM mode into forced PWM operation. In this mode, the TPS62802YKAT maintains a constant 4 MHz switching frequency across all load conditions - reducing output voltage ripple and eliminating frequency-domain interference with RF or precision analog circuits.
What is the maximum output current capability of TPS62802YKAT under typical operating conditions?
The TPS62802YKAT delivers up to 1 A of continuous output current when the input voltage is ≥2.3 V, as confirmed in Section 6.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions) of the datasheet. At lower input voltages (e.g., 1.8 V), the maximum sustainable output current decreases to 0.7 A due to duty-cycle limitations and internal switch RDS(ON) heating. Both values are validated across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range with appropriate thermal layout and 0.47 µH inductor.
How does the R2D converter in TPS62802YKAT determine output voltage, and what resistor tolerance is required?
The R2D (resistor-to-digital) converter in the TPS62802YKAT applies a precision current source to the external resistor (RVSEL) connected between VSEL/MODE and GND during startup, then digitizes the resulting voltage to select one of 16 internal feedback dividers. It requires E96-series resistors with 1% tolerance and ≤±200 ppm/°C temperature coefficient - ensuring accurate VOUT selection across temperature without affecting regulation accuracy, since RVSEL is not part of the feedback loop.
Can TPS62802YKAT operate with input voltage equal to its output voltage, and how is this achieved?
Yes, the TPS62802YKAT supports 100% duty cycle operation, enabling regulation even when VIN approaches VOUT (e.g., 1.85 V input for 1.8 V output). This is implemented by holding the high-side MOSFET continuously on - bypassing normal PWM switching - which prevents dropout and maintains stable output during deep battery discharge. The feature is active automatically when required and does not require external configuration or mode selection.
