Product details
Overview
TPS628604YCHR from Texas Instruments is a 0.6A synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with I²C and VSEL interface, operating from 1.75V to 5.5V input and delivering adjustable output from 0.4V to 1.9875V in 12.5mV steps. It features 2.3μA quiescent current, 1% output voltage accuracy, and 1.5MHz switching frequency - optimized for ultra-compact wearable and portable electronics requiring dynamic voltage scaling.
For engineers reviewing the TPS628604YCHR datasheet, TPS628604YCHR pinout, TPS628604YCHR application, or TPS628604YCHR equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed DCS-Control transient performance, real-world DVS ramp behavior, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts for low-power, space-constrained point-of-load designs.
Technical Context
The TPS628604YCHR implements TI's DCS-Control topology with dual feedback paths: an AC loop sensing VOS for immediate load transient response and a DC voltage feedback loop for precise regulation. Its seamless PFM/PWM mode transition maintains high efficiency across 100nA–600mA load range without external compensation.
It supports two independent voltage selection methods: hardware-based VSEL toggling (dual-pin logic for 0.85V/1.1V factory presets) and software-configurable I²C register writes (VOUT Register 1/2), enabling runtime DVS during active operation without interrupting power delivery.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 1.75V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, and multi-cell alkaline/battery-backed systems without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 0.6A continuous - sufficient for ARM Cortex-M cores, BLE SoCs, and sensor hubs in wearables. |
| Quiescent Current | 2.3μA - enables >1-year battery life in always-on medical patches with microamp-level sleep currents. |
| Output Accuracy | ±1% at TJ = 25°C - ensures reliable core voltage compliance for processors requiring tight VDD tolerance. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz - allows use of 0.7–1.2μH inductors and <10mm² total solution size including 0201 passives. |
| DVS Resolution | 12.5mV steps from 0.4V to 1.9875V - matches granularity needed for fine-grained DVFS in MCU subsystems. |
| Package | 8-pin DSBGA (YCH), 1.4mm × 0.7mm, 0.35mm pitch - smallest footprint in TPS6286x family for ultra-thin form factors. |
Pinout & Package
TPS628604YCHR uses an 8-pin, 0.35mm-pitch wafer-chip-scale package (DSBGA, YCH) measuring 1.4mm × 0.7mm with bottom-side solder balls. The layout-optimized pinout supports 0201-size input/output capacitors and minimizes trace inductance for high-frequency stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Connects to 1.75–5.5V source; requires local 4.7μF ceramic capacitor for EMI suppression and transient response. |
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for power and control circuits; must be tied directly to PCB ground plane under IC. |
| SW | Power switch node | Drives external inductor; high dv/dt node requiring short, wide trace and separation from sensitive analog signals. |
| VOS | Output voltage sense | Direct connection to output capacitor; enables accurate regulation and internal discharge path when disabled. |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input with internal 500kΩ pulldown; asserts soft-start on rising edge and initiates shutdown on falling edge. |
| VSEL | Hardware voltage select | Two-state pin toggling between 0.85V (LOW) and 1.1V (HIGH); changes output voltage dynamically during operation. |
| SCL | I²C clock | Open-drain input requiring external pullup; supports standard (100kHz), fast (400kHz), and fast-plus (1MHz) modes. |
| SDA | I²C data | Open-drain bidirectional line; shares bus with other I²C peripherals; must not float during operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| DCS-Control architecture | Combines hysteretic speed and voltage-mode precision to achieve <10μs load transient recovery with <1% undershoot. |
| Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) | Real-time output adjustment via I²C or VSEL pin - no power cycle required, enabling adaptive power management in firmware. |
| Ultra-low IQ operation | 2.3μA quiescent current extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes where sleep current dominates system budget. |
| Integrated output discharge | 7–11Ω internal resistor on VOS pin actively discharges output capacitor during disable, preventing floating rail issues. |
| Power-good (PG) indicator | Open-drain PG signal confirms ±3% output regulation and supports safe sequencing of downstream rails or fault detection. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS628601YCH | 0.6A rating, dual-VSEL pins (VSEL-1/VSEL-2), no I²C interface, four factory presets (0.6/0.7/0.8/1.0V). | Used where I²C bus is unavailable or firmware simplicity is prioritized over programmable DVS resolution. | Select when fixed dual-voltage operation suffices and eliminating I²C routing reduces layout complexity. |
| TPS628610YCH | 1A output, 4MHz switching, same YCH package, identical I²C/VSEL interface but higher current capability. | Required for applications with peak loads >600mA (e.g., camera modules, motor drivers) while retaining same footprint. | Choose when future-proofing for higher current or faster transient response is needed without changing PCB layout. |
Compared with TPS628604YCHR, TPS628601YCH removes I²C flexibility for deterministic dual-voltage selection, while TPS628610YCH upgrades current and frequency at identical size - making both viable alternatives depending on whether firmware control or power headroom is the primary design constraint.

FAQ
What are the factory-preset output voltages for TPS628604YCHR?
The TPS628604YCHR has two factory-preset output voltages: 0.85V (when VSEL = LOW) and 1.1V (when VSEL = HIGH). These are hard-coded into the device and require no I²C programming - enabling immediate dual-voltage operation upon power-up or VSEL toggle during runtime.
Does TPS628604YCHR support forced PWM mode, and how is it enabled?
Yes, TPS628604YCHR supports forced PWM (FPWM) mode to minimize output voltage ripple. It is enabled exclusively via I²C by setting bit[7] of the CONTROL register to '1'. FPWM remains active until explicitly disabled or the device resets - it is not triggered by VSEL toggling or automatic load conditions.
What is the purpose of the VOS pin on TPS628604YCHR, and how must it be connected?
The VOS pin on TPS628604YCHR serves as the feedback sense node for the internal regulation loop and provides the discharge path for the output capacitor when the device is disabled. It must be connected directly to the output capacitor's positive terminal using the shortest possible trace - no resistors or RC networks - to ensure accurate regulation and reliable discharge behavior.
Can TPS628604YCHR operate with input voltage below 1.8V?
No - TPS628604YCHR incorporates undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with a rising threshold of 1.75V (max) and falling threshold of 1.7V (max). Operation below 1.75V causes automatic shutdown; the device will not regulate or deliver output current until VIN exceeds the UVLO threshold and completes soft-start.
What thermal protection features does TPS628604YCHR include?
TPS628604YCHR includes thermal shutdown at 160°C (typical junction temperature) with 20°C hysteresis. When triggered, both high-side and low-side FETs turn off completely. Recovery occurs only after junction temperature falls below ~140°C, followed by full soft-start - ensuring safe restart without latch-up or uncontrolled inrush.
