Product details
Overview
TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive synchronous step-down DC/DC converter delivering up to 9A continuous output current, supporting 2.7V–6V input, ±1% output voltage accuracy with differential remote sensing, and I²C interface (address 0x41) for dynamic voltage scaling in FPGA/ASIC core rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 datasheet, TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 pinout, TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 application, or TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its stackable 9A capability, resistor-selectable switching frequency (1.5/2.25/2.5/3.0 MHz), thermal warning threshold (150°C), forced-PWM/power-save mode control, and VQFN-FCRLF (RXS) package with wettable flanks for automotive-grade solder joint inspection.
Technical Context
The TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 implements a fixed-frequency DCS-Control topology optimized for fast load transients in high-performance digital loads. It integrates 7 mΩ high-side and 4.5 mΩ low-side MOSFETs, supports differential remote sensing for point-of-load regulation, and enables stacking of identical-current devices to scale output current while distributing thermal load.
Its I²C interface (up to 1 MHz) provides real-time monitoring of output voltage, junction temperature, and fault status, plus programmable soft-start, spread-spectrum operation, and dynamic voltage adjustment - all critical for functional safety-compliant ADAS and infotainment power domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 9 A continuous - enables single-chip supply for mid-tier FPGA cores or DDR memory subsystems without external current sharing circuitry. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 6 V - compatible with automotive 3.3 V, 5 V, and battery-backed 12 V (via pre-regulator) rails. |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1 % - guaranteed across –40°C to +125°C ambient, enabled by differential remote sensing (VOSNS/GOSNS). |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5 / 2.25 / 2.5 / 3.0 MHz (resistor-selectable via FSEL) - allows EMI optimization and compact magnetics design. |
| I²C Address | 0x41 - factory-programmed and linked to 0.750 V start-up voltage (VSEL shorted to GND); supports multi-device bus addressing. |
| Junction Temp Limit | 150 °C thermal warning, 170 °C shutdown - provides fail-safe protection in under-hood or high-density PCB environments. |
| Package | RXS (VQFN-FCRLF, 2.55 mm × 3.55 mm × 1 mm) with wettable flanks - supports automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints per automotive IPC-A-610. |
Pinout & Package
RXS package: 16-pin VQFN-FCRLF (2.55 mm × 3.55 mm × 1 mm) with exposed thermal pad soldered to GND for optimal thermal performance (RθJB = 7.7°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| COMP | Control loop compensation node | Connects external RC network to GOSNS; in stacked configurations, all COMP pins must be tied together for synchronized loop response. |
| VOSNS / GOSNS | Differential output voltage sense inputs | Enable true point-of-load regulation; reject PCB trace IR drop to maintain ±1% accuracy at load terminals. |
| EN | Enable input (active-high) | Requires ≥15 kΩ series resistor; enables coordinated startup/shutdown sequencing in multi-rail systems. |
| MODE/SYNC | Operating mode select / external clock sync input | Pull low for power-save mode (efficiency-optimized); pull high for forced-PWM (low ripple, fast transient); accepts external clock 1.3–3.3 MHz. |
| SDA / SCL | I²C bidirectional data / clock | Supports 1 MHz Fast Mode Plus; internal pullups disabled - external 2.2–10 kΩ pullups required to VIO (1.65–5.5 V). |
| VSEL | Startup voltage select | Short to GND selects 0.750 V default output; determines I²C address (0x41) and enables deterministic boot behavior. |
| FSEL | Switching frequency select | Resistor-to-GND/VIN sets nominal fSW; enables EMI reduction via spread-spectrum or precise synchronization in stacked arrays. |
| SYNC_OUT | Daisy-chain clock output | Drives MODE/SYNC of next device in stack; internally used during startup to auto-assign primary/secondary roles. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62872Y1QWRXSRQ1 | 12 A rated, higher RDS(on) (7/4.1 mΩ), same package and pinout | Higher current capability but increased conduction loss at 9 A; requires derating for same thermal footprint | Select when future-proofing for 12 A peak loads or paralleling with lower-current rails. |
| MPQ4436GL-AEC1 | 6 A rated, no I²C interface, fixed 500 kHz–3 MHz frequency, QFN-13 package | Lacks remote sensing, dynamic voltage control, and thermal warning; limited to simpler automotive body electronics | Choose for cost-sensitive, non-safety-critical 6 A rails where I²C telemetry and precision regulation are unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1, the TPS62872Y1QWRXSRQ1 offers higher current headroom at the expense of marginally lower efficiency below 9 A, while the MPQ4436GL-AEC1 trades programmability and sensing fidelity for BOM simplicity in less demanding applications.

FAQ
What is the default I²C address and startup voltage of the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1?
The TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 has a factory-configured I²C address of 0x41 and a default startup output voltage of 0.750 V, achieved by shorting the VSEL pin to GND. This configuration is fixed and cannot be altered post-manufacture; the I²C address is intrinsically tied to the VSEL setting per TI's device options table.
Can the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 be stacked with other TPS6287x-Q1 variants?
Yes, the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 can be stacked only with other 9 A-rated TPS6287x-Q1 devices (e.g., TPS62871QWRXSRQ1 or TPS62871Y0QWRXSRQ1) to increase total output current. Stacking with 6 A, 12 A, or 15 A variants is not supported, as mismatched current ratings cause premature current limiting and unbalanced thermal stress.
Does the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 support spread-spectrum operation?
Yes, the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 supports spread-spectrum modulation by default (disabled at power-up). It can be enabled via I²C register write to reduce conducted and radiated EMI peaks - particularly valuable in sensitive RF-rich automotive cabins where EMC compliance is mandatory.
What is the purpose of the SYNC_OUT pin on the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1?
The SYNC_OUT pin on the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 serves two functions: during startup, it identifies secondary devices in a stack when pulled to GND via 47 kΩ; during operation, it outputs the internal switching clock to synchronize MODE/SYNC pins of downstream converters in daisy-chained stacks - ensuring phase alignment and minimizing input capacitor RMS current.
How does the differential remote sensing work on the TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1?
The TPS62871Y1QWRXSRQ1 uses dedicated VOSNS (output voltage sense) and GOSNS (output ground sense) pins to measure voltage directly at the load terminals. This rejects voltage drops across PCB traces and connectors, enabling ±1% regulation accuracy at the point-of-load - critical for sub-1 V digital core supplies where even 10 mV error impacts timing margins.
