Product details
Overview
TPS62826DMQR from Texas Instruments is a synchronous step-down DC/DC converter delivering up to 3A output current with 1% feedback voltage accuracy (0.6V–4V adjustable), 2.2MHz fixed switching frequency, and 4μA quiescent current. It uses DCS-Control topology for fast transient response and operates in power-save mode at light loads-ideal for battery-powered industrial PCs and portable electronics requiring high efficiency across wide load ranges.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62826DMQR datasheet, TPS62826DMQR pinout, TPS62826DMQR application, or TPS62826DMQR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3A continuous output capability, 1.5mm × 1.5mm VSON-HR (DMQ) package, integrated 26mΩ/25mΩ MOSFETs, active output discharge, and power-good signal for rail sequencing in space-constrained point-of-load designs.
Technical Context
The TPS62826DMQR implements adaptive constant-on-time DCS-Control with seamless PWM-to-PSM transition, maintaining regulation stability while optimizing efficiency from full load to microamp-level currents. Its internal 0.6V reference and precision feedback path ensure ±1% output voltage accuracy over –40°C to 125°C junction temperature.
It supports 100% duty-cycle operation for ultra-low dropout, features hiccup-mode short-circuit protection with 32-cycle detection latency, and integrates thermal shutdown (150°C trip, 20°C hysteresis) alongside undervoltage lockout (2.2V threshold, 160mV hysteresis) for robust system-level fault handling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 3A continuous - supports demanding SoC core rails and FPGA I/O supplies without external current sharing. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.4V to 5.5V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, USB PD, and 3.3V/5V intermediate bus architectures. |
| Feedback Accuracy | ±1% over –40°C to 125°C - enables tight regulation for sensitive analog and high-speed digital loads without external trimming. |
| Quiescent Current | 4μA in PSM - extends battery runtime in always-on sensor nodes and low-power IoT endpoints. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.2MHz nominal - allows use of compact 0.47μH inductors and small ceramic capacitors for minimal PCB footprint. |
| Package | 6-pin VSON-HR (DMQ), 1.5mm × 1.5mm - delivers industry-leading power density for space-constrained embedded modules. |
| Power-Good Output | Open-drain PG with 100μs rise deglitch - enables reliable multi-rail power sequencing in industrial controllers and SSDs. |
Pinout & Package
TPS62826DMQR is housed in a thermally enhanced 6-pin VSON-HR (DMQ) package measuring 1.5mm × 1.5mm with exposed thermal pad. The pinout supports minimal external component count: only one input capacitor (4.7μF), one output capacitor (2×10μF or 22μF), and one 470nH inductor are required for full operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN | Enable input | Active-high logic control; must be pulled high ≥1.0V to activate regulator; leakage <0.1μA ensures low standby loss. |
| PG | Power-good open-drain output | Sinks up to 1mA; requires external pullup ≤5.5V; provides 100μs deglitched status for downstream rail enablement. |
| FB | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider for adjustable outputs; 0.6V internal reference enables 0.6V–4V range with ±1% accuracy. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for control circuitry and power stage; ties to thermal pad for optimal heat dissipation. |
| SW | Power switch node | Drives external inductor; handles peak currents up to 5A; requires low-inductance layout to minimize EMI. |
| VIN | Input power supply | Accepts 2.4V–5.5V; internal UVLO (2.2V) prevents erratic startup during brownout conditions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| DCS-Control topology | Enables sub-10μs load transient response with minimal output capacitance-critical for burst-mode processors. |
| Active output discharge | Discharges output via SW pin when EN is low (75–400mA sink), preventing floating voltages during power-down sequences. |
| Hiccup short-circuit protection | Shuts down for 100μs after 32-cycle overcurrent detection, limiting average power dissipation during sustained faults. |
| 100% duty-cycle operation | Maintains regulation with VIN as low as VOUT + IOUT×RDS(on)_HS + IL×DCR_L-enables ultra-low dropout in battery-depleted states. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | Triggers at 150°C and resumes only after cooling by ≥20°C-prevents thermal runaway in sealed enclosures. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62826ADMQ | Forced-PWM mode only; no PSM; higher 8mA quiescent current; identical 3A rating and pinout. | Better suited for noise-sensitive ADC/DAC supplies where output ripple <10mV is mandatory. | Select TPS62826ADMQ when fixed-frequency CCM operation is required; otherwise TPS62826DMQR offers superior light-load efficiency. |
| TPS62827DMQR | 4A output rating; same package, pinout, and feature set; 2.5V–5.5V input range (vs. 2.4V–5.5V). | Used where future-proofing for higher current or tighter input UVLO margin is needed. | Choose TPS62827DMQR only if design requires >3A headroom; TPS62826DMQR provides optimal cost/performance for verified 3A loads. |
Compared with TPS62826ADMQ and TPS62827DMQR, the TPS62826DMQR uniquely balances ultra-low quiescent current (4μA), 3A capability, and seamless PSM/PWM transition-making it the preferred choice for battery-operated industrial and portable systems where runtime and dynamic performance are co-prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the TPS62826DMQR?
The TPS62826DMQR delivers up to 3A continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (TJ ≤ 125°C, VIN = 2.4V–5.5V). This rating is validated with the standard 0.47μH inductor and 2×10μF output capacitance on a 2-layer JEDEC board. Derating applies above 85°C ambient or with reduced copper area.
Does the TPS62826DMQR support adjustable output voltage?
Yes, the TPS62826DMQR supports adjustable output voltage from 0.6V to 4.0V using an external resistor divider connected to the FB pin. The internal 0.6V reference enables precise setting-for example, a 100kΩ R2 and 200kΩ R1 yields 1.8V output. Fixed-output variants (e.g., TPS6282618DMQR) omit the divider.
How does the power-good (PG) signal behave during startup and fault conditions?
The TPS62826DMQR's PG pin is an open-drain output that goes high-impedance only when VFB reaches 96–105% of target voltage and EN is high. It pulls low during startup, shutdown, UVLO, thermal shutdown, or output undervoltage-providing unambiguous sequencing feedback. A 100kΩ pullup to 3.3V is typical.
Can the TPS62826DMQR operate with input voltage below 2.4V?
No-the absolute minimum input voltage is 2.4V per recommended operating conditions. Below this, undervoltage lockout activates at ~2.2V (with 160mV hysteresis), disabling regulation. Attempting operation below 2.4V risks unstable switching or failure to start, especially at cold temperatures or high loads.
What thermal performance can be expected from the TPS62826DMQR in a 6-layer PCB?
On a 6-layer board with 1oz copper, 200mm² thermal pad copper pour, and 4 thermal vias, the TPS62826DMQR achieves ≤33°C/W junction-to-board thermal resistance. At 3A/3.3V output, this yields ~45°C temperature rise above ambient-well within the –40°C to 125°C operating range without forced airflow.
