Product details
Overview
TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive synchronous step-down DC/DC converter delivering 1 A continuous output current with fixed 1.15 V output voltage, 2.75 V to 6 V input range, and adjustable switching frequency from 1.8 MHz to 4 MHz. It features active output discharge, power-good monitoring, and precise enable for rail sequencing in infotainment and ADAS power rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 datasheet, TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 pinout, TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 application, or TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 1.15 V output, wettable-flank VQFN-9 package, ±1% output voltage accuracy in PWM mode, forced-PWM/PFM operation modes, and functional safety documentation support.
Technical Context
The TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 implements peak current mode control with internally compensated loop architecture and three selectable compensation settings via the COMP/FSET pin. Its MODE/SYNC pin supports external clock synchronization (1.8–4 MHz) or logic-controlled PFM/PWM mode selection.
It integrates low-RDS(on) high-side (37–60 mΩ) and low-side (15–35 mΩ) MOSFETs optimized for high ambient temperature operation, enabling 1 A continuous output at up to +125°C ambient. The device includes a dedicated SS/TR pin for soft-start timing or voltage tracking, and a window-comparator-based PG output with 40 µs deglitching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.15 V - eliminates external feedback resistors; ensures stable core supply for automotive MCUs or FPGAs requiring precise 1.15 V bias. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.75 V to 6 V - supports direct connection to automotive 3.3 V, 5 V, or battery-backed rails with cold-crank tolerance down to 2.75 V. |
| Output Current | 1 A continuous - sufficient for powering single-core automotive processors, CAN transceivers, or sensor interface ICs without thermal derating at +125°C ambient. |
| Quiescent Current | 15 µA typical - enables ultra-low-power sleep-mode operation in always-on vehicle networks while maintaining fast wake-up response. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.8 MHz to 4 MHz adjustable - allows EMI optimization and compact filter design using sub-1 µH inductors and ceramic capacitors. |
| Output Accuracy | ±1% in PWM mode - guarantees tight regulation for sensitive analog or mixed-signal circuits without post-regulation LDOs. |
| Thermal Rating | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C TA) - qualified for under-hood and dashboard-mounted applications with no derating up to 125°C ambient. |
Pinout & Package
The TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 is housed in a 3.0 mm × 2.0 mm VQFN-9 package with wettable flanks (RWY), enabling automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints in automotive PCB assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN (Pin 8) | Enable control input | Logic-level input with 1.06–1.15 V rising threshold; supports programmable UVLO and precise power-rail sequencing via external resistor divider. |
| FB (Pin 5) | Feedback reference | Internally tied to 1.15 V reference; must be connected directly to output for fixed-voltage operation-no external resistor divider required. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Power ground | Primary return path for high-current switch node and control circuitry; requires low-inductance layout to minimize noise coupling. |
| MODE/SYNC (Pin 1) | Mode control / sync input | Pull-low for PFM/PWM auto-mode; pull-high for forced PWM; accepts external 1.8–4 MHz clock for synchronized multi-rail systems. |
| COMP/FSET (Pin 7) | Compensation & frequency set | Resistor-to-GND sets both switching frequency (1.8–4 MHz) and internal loop compensation; tied to GND/VIN for fixed 2.25 MHz operation. |
| PG (Pin 9) | Power-good open-drain output | Asserts high-Z when output is within ±5% of 1.15 V (95–107% window); used for system reset or downstream enable sequencing. |
| SS/TR (Pin 6) | Soft-start / tracking input | Capacitor-to-GND sets startup ramp time; can accept external voltage for output tracking during power-up of multiple rails. |
| SW (Pin 3) | Switch node | High-frequency switching point connecting internal HS/LS MOSFETs; requires tight layout with minimal trace length and adjacent ground pour. |
| VIN (Pin 2) | Input power supply | Accepts 2.75–6 V; must be decoupled with ≥5 µF effective capacitance placed adjacent to pin to suppress high-frequency ripple. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Active Output Discharge | 50 Ω internal discharge path - ensures rapid, controlled output voltage decay during shutdown to prevent back-powering or latch-up in multi-rail systems. |
| Adjustable Soft Start | Programmable ramp time (100–200 µs) via SS/TR capacitor - limits inrush current and prevents input voltage droop during cold-start conditions. |
| 100% Duty Cycle Mode | Supports dropout operation down to VOUT = VIN − 0.1 V - maintains regulation during low-input transients such as automotive load-dump recovery. |
| Functional Safety Documentation | FIT rate, failure mode analysis, and safety manual available - enables integration into ASIL-B/C systems without additional safety hardware. |
| Wettable Flank Package | RWY (VQFN-9) with side-wettable leads - enables automated X-ray and AOI verification of solder joint integrity per IPC-A-610 Class 3 requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS628110AQWRWYRQ1 | Fixed 1.2 V output; identical package, pinout, and electrical specs except VOUT. | Suitable for SoCs requiring 1.2 V core voltage instead of 1.15 V; no layout change needed. | Select when target processor specifies 1.2 V nominal core voltage per datasheet. |
| TPS6281120QWRWYRQ1 | Same 1.15 V output but adds spread spectrum clocking (SSC); otherwise identical pinout and performance. | Preferred in EMI-sensitive environments (e.g., radar proximity, RF modules) where peak spectral density reduction is mandatory. | Choose when CISPR 25 Class 5 compliance requires >10 dB peak EMI reduction without filter redesign. |
Compared with TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1, the 1.2 V variant offers direct compatibility for higher-voltage cores, while the SSC-enabled version provides certified EMI mitigation-neither requires PCB revision, but only the latter delivers measurable radiated emission improvement in dense RF zones.

FAQ
What is the output voltage of the TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1?
The TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 delivers a fixed 1.15 V output voltage. This value is factory-trimmed and does not require external feedback resistors. Its ±1% accuracy in PWM mode ensures stable core supply for automotive processors and FPGAs operating across –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature.
Does the TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 support external frequency synchronization?
Yes, the TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 supports external clock synchronization via the MODE/SYNC pin (Pin 1) across 1.8 MHz to 4 MHz. Synchronization requires a resistor from COMP/FSET to GND; tying COMP/FSET to GND or VIN disables sync capability. The device locks to the external clock within 50 µs.
What package type and dimensions does the TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 use?
The TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 uses a 3.0 mm × 2.0 mm VQFN-9 package with wettable flanks (RWY). This RoHS-compliant, leadless package enables automated optical inspection of solder joints and supports high-density automotive PCB layouts with thermal performance rated at RθJA = 71.1°C/W.
How does the TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 handle power sequencing in multi-rail systems?
The TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 supports precise sequencing via its EN pin (programmable UVLO) and SS/TR pin (voltage tracking). The PG output signals valid regulation status, allowing it to enable downstream regulators or processors only after 1.15 V reaches ±5% tolerance-ensuring safe, repeatable boot sequences in complex ECUs.
Is the TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 qualified for automotive safety-critical applications?
Yes, the TPS6281109QWRWYRQ1 is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified (–40°C to +125°C TA) and functional safety-capable.
