Product details
Overview
TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 from Texas Instruments is a 15A automotive-grade synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with I²C interface, differential remote sense, and fast transient response. It operates from 2.7V–6V input, delivers 0.4V–1.675V output with ±0.8% accuracy, and integrates 2.6mΩ/1.5mΩ power MOSFETs for high-efficiency operation in ADAS camera power rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 datasheet, TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 pinout, TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 application, or TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (–40°C to 125°C ambient), selectable 1.5/2.25/2.5/3MHz switching frequency via FSEL pin, forced-PWM/power-save mode control, and I²C-configurable voltage scaling for dynamic load power management.
Technical Context
The TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 implements a fixed-frequency DCS-Control™ architecture optimized for sub-100ns load transient response in safety-critical automotive systems. Its dual-stage error amplifier supports external compensation and enables precise regulation across wide VIN/VOUT combinations while maintaining stability under varying thermal and layout conditions.
Differential remote sensing (VOSNS/GOSNS) compensates for PCB IR drop, achieving ±0.8% DC output accuracy at point-of-load. The device supports stacked operation via SYNC_OUT/MODE-SYNC daisy-chaining and provides thermal pre-warning (150°C) and shutdown (170°C) with 20°C hysteresis for robust system-level protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the TPS62874QWRZVRQ1?
The TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 has a maximum operating junction temperature of 150°C, with thermal shutdown triggered at 170°C and thermal warning asserted at 150°C. This allows reliable operation in engine bay–adjacent ADAS modules where ambient temperatures reach 125°C, provided board-level thermal design achieves RθJB ≤ 6.5°C/W per datasheet specifications.
Does the TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 support differential remote sensing, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 supports true differential remote sensing using dedicated VOSNS and GOSNS pins. These connect directly to the load's VOUT and PGND nodes, enabling the IC to regulate voltage precisely at the point-of-load and maintain ±0.8% DC accuracy despite PCB trace resistance-critical for vision processor core rails.
How does the I²C interface of the TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 differ from standard implementations?
The TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 supports high-speed I²C mode up to 3.4MHz, enabling sub-100µs register writes for dynamic voltage scaling. It uses configurable I²C addresses (0x44–0x47) set by VSEL pin state and provides dedicated registers for voltage monitoring, thermal warnings, and fault status-extending beyond basic PMBus compatibility into functional safety diagnostics.
Can the TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 be used in stacked configurations, and what are the requirements?
Yes, the TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 supports daisy-chained stacking via SYNC_OUT → MODE/SYNC interconnection. Up to three devices can be synchronized with 120° or 180° phase shift. All EN pins must be tied together, COMP pins joined externally, and PG pins wired-OR'd. Primary/secondary roles are defined by SYNC_OUT-to-GND resistor on secondary units.
What are the key differences between the TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 and TPS62874B1QWRZVRQ1 variants?
The TPS62874B1QWRZVRQ1 enables droop compensation (DROOPEN = 1) and transient non-synchronous mode, improving current sharing in stacked configurations under fast load steps. The base TPS62874QWRZVRQ1 defaults to DROOPEN = 0 and uses standard DCS-Control™-making it optimal for single-rail applications where simplicity and minimal latency are prioritized.
