Product details
Overview
TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C) automotive synchronous step-down DC/DC converter delivering 2 A continuous output current, fixed 1.2 V output voltage, and ±1% feedback voltage accuracy in PWM mode. It operates from 2.75 V to 6 V input, supports adjustable switching frequency from 1.8 MHz to 4 MHz, and features active output discharge, power-good monitoring, and spread-spectrum clocking for EMI reduction - deployed in infotainment head units and ADAS sensor fusion ECUs.
For engineers reviewing the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 datasheet, TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 pinout, TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 application, or TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 1.2 V output, wettable-flank VQFN-9 (RWY) package, forced-PWM/PFM mode control via MODE/SYNC, precise ENABLE threshold (1.06–1.15 V), and integrated soft-start/tracking via SS/TR pin.
Technical Context
The TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 implements peak current mode control with internally compensated loop architecture and three selectable compensation settings tied to COMP/FSET resistor value - enabling stable regulation across 15 µF to 470 µF output capacitance ranges. Its dual-mode operation (PFM at light load, forced PWM at full load) sustains >90% efficiency from 1 mA to 2 A output current under 4.0 V input.
Switching frequency is set either by a resistor from COMP/FSET to GND (1.8–4 MHz), or fixed at 2.25 MHz when COMP/FSET is tied to VIN/GND. External synchronization is supported on MODE/SYNC pin (1.8–4 MHz range) only when COMP/FSET uses a resistor - not when tied directly to rail. The device integrates low-RDS(on) high-side (37–60 mΩ) and low-side (15–35 mΩ) MOSFETs optimized for high ambient temperature operation.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
VQFN-9 (RWY) package: 3.0 mm × 2.0 mm body, 0.4 mm pitch, wettable flanks, exposed thermal pad (GND-connected). Pin 1 marked by dot; bottom view orientation per Figure 5-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN (Pin 8) | Enable control input | Logic-high enable with 1.06–1.15 V rising threshold; supports programmable UVLO and power sequencing via external resistor divider. |
| FB (Pin 5) | Feedback reference input | Internally connected to 1.2 V reference; must be shorted to output for fixed-VOUT operation - no external resistor network required. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Power and signal ground | Primary return path for power switches, control circuitry, and thermal pad; requires low-inductance PCB connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| MODE/SYNC (Pin 1) | Operation mode / sync input | Pull-low for PFM/PWM auto-mode; pull-high for forced PWM; accepts external 1.8–4 MHz clock for synchronized multi-converter systems. |
| COMP/FSET (Pin 7) | Compensation & frequency set | Resistor-to-GND sets both switching frequency (1.8–4 MHz) and internal compensation; tied to VIN/GND for fixed 2.25 MHz operation. |
| PG (Pin 9) | Open-drain power-good output | Asserts high-Z when VOUT is within ±5% of target (95–107% window); used for system reset coordination and supply sequencing. |
| SS/TR (Pin 6) | Soft-start / tracking input | Capacitor-to-GND sets startup ramp time; accepts external voltage for output tracking during rail sequencing - critical for multi-supply SoC boot. |
| SW (Pin 3) | Switch node | Connection point for external inductor; carries high di/dt switching waveform - requires tight layout with minimal loop area to reduce EMI. |
| VIN (Pin 2) | Input power supply | Accepts 2.75–6 V; requires local 5–10 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin to suppress high-frequency input ripple. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 in PWM mode?
The TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 guarantees ±1% feedback voltage accuracy in PWM mode over temperature (–40°C to +125°C) and input voltage (VIN ≥ VOUT + 1 V). This translates to ±12 mV absolute tolerance on its fixed 1.2 V output, ensuring stable core voltage for automotive-grade processors without external trimming.
Does the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 support external synchronization, and what are the requirements?
Yes, the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 supports external synchronization on the MODE/SYNC pin across 1.8–4 MHz, but only when COMP/FSET is configured with a resistor to GND - not when tied directly to VIN or GND. The sync signal must be a clean CMOS-level square wave with 20–80% duty cycle; lock time is typically 50 µs.
How does the SS/TR pin function in the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1, and can it be left unconnected?
The SS/TR pin on the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 serves dual roles: capacitor-to-GND sets soft-start ramp time, and external voltage injection enables output tracking. It must never be left floating - connect to GND for immediate startup or use a resistor divider for sequencing. Leaving it unconnected risks erratic enable behavior and violates recommended operating conditions.
What is the thermal performance of the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 in a standard 2-layer PCB layout?
In a standard 2-layer PCB with 1 oz copper and 10 cm² thermal pad copper pour, the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 achieves RθJB = 16.4°C/W. At 2 A load and 5 V input, junction temperature rise is ~52°C above board temperature - well within the +150°C max TJ limit even at +100°C ambient, assuming proper GND plane connectivity.
Is spread-spectrum clocking enabled by default on the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1, and how is it controlled?
Yes, spread-spectrum clocking is factory-enabled on the TPS628122AQWRWYRQ1 and requires no external configuration. It operates automatically in PWM mode across the full 1.8–4 MHz frequency range, modulating center frequency by ±1% at 30 kHz rate to reduce narrowband EMI peaks - verified per CISPR 25 test setups in TI's automotive reference designs.
