Overview
TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive synchronous step-down DC/DC converter delivering 4 A continuous output current, 1.0 V fixed output voltage, 15 µA typical quiescent current, and adjustable switching frequency from 1.8 MHz to 4 MHz in a 3 mm × 2 mm VQFN package with wettable flanks - used in ADAS sensor fusion and infotainment power rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 datasheet, TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 pinout, TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 application, or TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4 A output capability at +125°C ambient, ±1% output voltage accuracy in PWM mode, active output discharge, precise enable with user-defined UVLO, and forced-PWM/PFM operational flexibility.
Technical Context
The TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 implements peak current mode control with internal loop compensation selectable via resistor on COMP/FSET, enabling stable operation across 27–470 µF output capacitance. Its high-side/low-side MOSFETs feature 37 mΩ / 15 mΩ RDS(on) at VIN ≥ 5 V, supporting high-efficiency regulation under automotive thermal stress.
It supports external synchronization (1.8–4 MHz), 100% duty cycle operation, and soft-start/tracking via SS/TR pin for rail sequencing. The device enters PFM mode below ~200 mA load to maintain >85% efficiency down to 10 µA output current while retaining ±1% output accuracy in PWM mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Pinout & Package
TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 uses a 9-pin VQFN package (RWY) with 3.00 mm × 2.00 mm body size and wettable flanks for automated optical inspection (AOI) compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN | Enable input | Logic-controlled startup with 1.1 V rising threshold; enables programmable UVLO and exact power-rail sequencing |
| FB | Feedback input | Internally tied to 1.0 V reference - no external divider required; simplifies layout and improves accuracy |
| GND | Power ground | Primary return path for high-current switch node and control circuitry; requires low-impedance PCB plane |
| MODE/SYNC | Mode control / sync input | Selects PFM/PWM or forced PWM; accepts external 1.8–4 MHz clock for synchronized multi-rail systems |
| COMP/FSET | Compensation & frequency set | Resistor-to-GND sets both switching frequency and internal compensation for optimal transient response |
| PG | Power-good output | Open-drain flag indicating VOUT within ±5% of 1.0 V; supports system-level fault detection and sequencing |
| SS/TR | Soft-start / tracking input | Capacitor-to-GND sets ramp time; also accepts external voltage for supply tracking during startup |
| SW | Switch node | Connection to internal high-side/low-side MOSFETs; requires tight layout with low-inductance path to inductor |
| VIN | Input supply | Accepts 2.75–6 V; must be decoupled with ≥5 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS6281008QWRWYRQ1 | Fixed 1.1 V output; identical 4 A rating, package, and feature set | Used where 1.1 V core voltage is specified (e.g., certain radar SoCs) | Select when target SoC requires 1.1 V instead of 1.0 V - same layout, no redesign needed |
| TPS6281206QWRWYRQ1 | 2 A output, fixed 1.0 V, same RWY package and pinout | Suitable for lower-power domains (e.g., MCU peripherals) where 4 A is excessive | Choose for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained designs needing only 2 A - shares footprint but lower current capability |
Compared with TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1, TPS6281008QWRWYRQ1 offers identical performance at 1.1 V for alternate SoC requirements, while TPS6281206QWRWYRQ1 provides a pin-compatible 2 A option for reduced thermal load and bill-of-materials cost in non-core-rail applications.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 in PWM mode?
The TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 guarantees ±1% output voltage accuracy over temperature (–40°C to +125°C) and line/load conditions in PWM mode. This specification applies to its fixed 1.0 V output and is measured with VIN ≥ VOUT + 1 V. The tight tolerance eliminates need for post-regulation trimming and ensures reliable SoC core voltage compliance.
Does the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 support external clock synchronization?
Yes, the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 supports external synchronization via its MODE/SYNC pin across 1.8 MHz to 4 MHz. Synchronization requires a resistor from COMP/FSET to GND; tying COMP/FSET directly to GND or VIN disables sync capability. The device locks to the external clock within 50 µs and maintains phase alignment critical for multi-rail noise reduction.
How does the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 manage thermal performance in automotive environments?
The TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 achieves junction temperatures ≤+150°C via low RDS(on) MOSFETs (37 mΩ HS / 15 mΩ LS), optimized thermal pad design in the RWY package, and RθJA = 71.1°C/W. Its AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating (–40°C to +125°C TA) and thermal shutdown at +170°C ensure robust operation in under-hood and dashboard locations.
Can the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 operate in 100% duty cycle mode?
Yes, the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 supports 100% duty cycle operation, allowing VOUT to track VIN down to VOUT = VIN. This feature maintains regulation during automotive cold-crank events (e.g., 4.5 V battery) when VIN approaches the 1.0 V output, preventing system brownout and ensuring uninterrupted operation of safety-critical loads.
Is the FB pin of the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 left unconnected or grounded?
The FB pin of the TPS6281006QWRWYRQ1 is internally connected to the 1.0 V reference and must be directly connected to the output voltage node - not left floating or grounded. This connection enables the internal error amplifier to regulate the fixed 1.0 V output and activates the power-good comparator. Incorrect FB routing causes regulation failure and PG flag malfunction.
