Product details
Overview
TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 from Texas Instruments is a 9A, AEC-Q100 Grade-1 automotive synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with I²C interface, differential remote sensing, and stackable architecture. It operates from 2.7V–6V input, delivers output voltage from 0.4V to 3.35V in selectable ranges, achieves ±1% DC accuracy, and integrates 7mΩ/4.5mΩ MOSFETs for high-efficiency core power in ADAS and infotainment systems.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 datasheet, TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 pinout, TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 application, or TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 9A current rating, I²C-configurable voltage/frequency, thermal warning capability, forced-PWM vs power-save mode control, and VQFN-FCRLF (RXS) package with wettable flanks for automotive-grade solder joint inspection.
Technical Context
The TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 implements a fixed-frequency DCS-Control topology optimized for fast load transients and low output voltage ripple. Its dual-loop architecture combines voltage-mode control with emulated current sensing, enabling stable operation across wide VIN–VOUT differentials and high ambient temperatures up to +125°C ambient (TJ ≤ +150°C).
Differential remote sensing (VOSNS/GOSNS) enables precise point-of-load regulation independent of PCB trace IR drop, while stackable operation-via SYNC_OUT daisy-chaining and synchronized MODE/SYNC-allows parallel configuration of identical-current devices for higher output current or thermal spreading without external current-sharing circuitry.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar automotive buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62864QWRXSRQ1 | 6A rating, same RXS package, no I²C interface, fixed 0.6V startup | Lacks remote sensing, voltage programmability, and thermal warning; suitable only for static, non-critical rails | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs configurability needs and current demand ≤6A |
| MPQ4436-AEC1 | 8A rating, QFN-18 package, no I²C, 2.5–6V input, ±2% accuracy | No differential sensing, no stackability, lower thermal warning threshold (145°C), no spread-spectrum | Choose for simpler designs where I²C telemetry and ±1% accuracy are not required |
Compared with TPS62871QWRXSRQ1, TPS62864QWRXSRQ1 offers lower cost but sacrifices voltage flexibility and diagnostics, while MPQ4436-AEC1 provides competitive integration at lower current and reduced precision-neither matches the full feature set for high-reliability, adaptive automotive core supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 in standalone operation?
The TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 delivers up to 9A continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (TJ ≤ 150°C, VIN = 2.7V–6V). Its integrated 7mΩ high-side and 4.5mΩ low-side MOSFETs minimize conduction losses, enabling full-rated current even at +125°C ambient temperature with proper PCB thermal design.
Does TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 support differential remote sensing, and how is it implemented?
Yes, TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 supports true differential remote sensing using dedicated VOSNS and GOSNS pins. This allows regulation at the load point by rejecting voltage drop across PCB traces or connectors, achieving better than ±1% DC accuracy across all operating conditions-including full load, temperature extremes, and input variations.
How does the I²C interface of TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 enhance system-level power management?
The I²C interface of TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 enables real-time voltage adjustment, thermal status monitoring, and fault flag reporting without hardware modifications. For example, firmware can dynamically scale the output voltage based on SoC workload, read die temperature to trigger thermal throttling, or log undervoltage events for diagnostic analysis-enhancing reliability in automotive ECUs.
Can multiple TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 devices be stacked, and what are the requirements?
Yes, TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 supports stacking with identical-current devices only. All units must share COMP, EN, PG, and VOSNS/GOSNS connections; SYNC_OUT of each device daisy-chains to MODE/SYNC of the next. Stacking enables up to 18A (2×), 27A (3×), etc., with automatic interleaving and balanced current sharing-no external current-sense or master-slave logic required.
What package type and thermal characteristics define the mechanical implementation of TPS62871QWRXSRQ1?
TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 uses a 2.55mm × 3.55mm × 1mm VQFN-FCRLF (RXS) package with wettable flanks and an exposed thermal pad soldered to GND.
