Product details
Overview
TPS629210DRLR-ET from Texas Instruments is a high-efficiency, 1-A synchronous buck converter with 3-V to 17-V input range, –55°C to +150°C operating junction temperature, 4-µA typical quiescent current, ±1% output voltage accuracy, and DCS-Control topology for seamless PWM/PFM transition. It serves as a primary power supply in harsh-environment aerospace and industrial transport systems requiring stable regulation under wide thermal and load variation.
For engineers reviewing the TPS629210DRLR-ET datasheet, TPS629210DRLR-ET pinout, TPS629210DRLR-ET application, or TPS629210DRLR-ET equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, validated SOT-5X3 (8-pin) package mapping, confirmed MODE/S-CONF configuration options, real-world thermal performance data across –55°C to +150°C, and precise enable/power-good timing behavior - all directly extracted from TI's production-grade SLVSGI8 documentation.
Technical Context
The TPS629210DRLR-ET implements TI's DCS-Control topology with internal compensation, enabling fast transient response and stable operation with low-ESR ceramic output capacitors. Its control loop combines direct voltage feedback with a fast comparator stage and a fixed-frequency soft-start timer (600–700 µs), eliminating need for external compensation networks.
It supports dual-mode operation via the MODE/S-CONF pin: either dynamic mode toggling (HIGH/LOW logic) or resistor-programmed static configuration (7.5 kΩ–249 kΩ), selecting between 1-MHz or 2.5-MHz switching, forced PWM or auto PFM with AEE, and VSET vs FB feedback modes - all without changing PCB layout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 3 V to 17 V - supports 12-V, 5-V, 3.3-V rails and multi-cell Li-ion batteries without input pre-regulation |
| Output Current | Up to 1 A - sufficient for powering FPGAs, ADCs, and microcontrollers in compact embedded systems |
| Quiescent Current | 4 µA typical - enables >90% efficiency at light loads (e.g., <1 mA), critical for always-on subsystems |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±1% over –55°C to +150°C - ensures reliable rail integrity in extended-temperature aerospace avionics |
| Switching Frequency | Selectable 1 MHz or 2.5 MHz - balances EMI suppression (higher fSW) vs. efficiency (lower fSW) per design requirement |
| RDS(on) | 250 mΩ (HS), 85 mΩ (LS) - minimizes conduction loss and thermal rise in confined SOT-5X3 footprint |
| Protection Features | Overcurrent (1.5–2.1 A HS limit), overtemperature (170°C shutdown), UVLO (2.95 V rising), and power-good output - enables autonomous fault handling without external supervision |
Pinout & Package
The TPS629210DRLR-ET is housed in an 8-pin SOT-5X3 package (1.60 mm × 2.10 mm, 0.5-mm pitch), optimized for high-density layouts and thermal performance on JEDEC-standard PCBs (RθJA = 120°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| FB/VSET | Voltage feedback or internal VSET selection input | Configurable: external resistor to GND sets one of 18 factory-trimmed output voltages (0.4 V–5.5 V) or enables adjustable feedback via external divider |
| PG | Open-drain power-good output | Signals valid output regulation (93–99% VFB) with 32-µs delay; requires external pull-up for sequencing multiple rails |
| VOS | Output voltage sense terminal | Direct connection to output capacitor positive terminal enables accurate remote sensing and eliminates trace IR drop errors |
| SW | Switch node | Connects internal high-side/low-side MOSFETs; requires low-inductance routing to minimize EMI and ringing |
| GND | Power ground reference | Single-point grounding recommended; ties to thermal pad for optimal heat dissipation in SOT-5X3 package |
| VIN | Main power input | Accepts 3–17 V; requires ≥3 µF local ceramic capacitance placed adjacent to pin for stability and transient response |
| EN | Enable/disable control with precision threshold | Turns device on at 0.97–1.03 V (rising), off at 0.87–0.93 V (falling); internal pulldown prevents floating start-up |
| MODE/S-CONF | Configuration and mode selection input | Resistor-programmable pin selects switching frequency, feedback method, discharge enable, and PFM/PWM behavior - no runtime reconfiguration after startup |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external bootstrap capacitor required | Integrated charge pump eliminates discrete bootstrap components and associated layout complexity |
| 100% duty cycle operation | Maintains regulation down to VOUT ≈ VIN – 0.3 V, enabling ultra-low dropout in battery-powered systems |
| Automatic Efficiency Enhancement (AEE) | Dynamically adjusts switching frequency based on VIN/VOUT ratio to sustain >85% efficiency across full load and input range |
| Precise enable threshold with hysteresis | 0.1-V hysteresis (VIH = 1.0 V, VIL = 0.9 V) enables clean power-up sequencing using RC networks or system supervisors |
| Output discharge function | Active 7.5–20 Ω internal discharge path pulls VOUT to near 0 V during disable, preventing back-powering of downstream circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS629210DRVR | Same silicon, 6-pin WSON package (2.0 mm × 2.0 mm), higher RθJA (140°C/W), no VOS pin - relies on FB sensing only | Lacks remote output sensing; less suitable for long-trace or high-current applications where trace resistance impacts regulation | Select TPS629210DRVR only when board space is constrained and output trace lengths are <5 mm |
| TPS629206DRLR | 0.6-A rated version, identical SOT-5X3 package and pinout, same –55°C to +150°C rating, but lower current limit (1.3–1.6 A LS) | Not suitable for 1-A continuous loads; thermal margin reduced by ~25% at full load in same PCB layout | Choose TPS629206DRLR only if peak load remains ≤600 mA and BOM cost reduction is prioritized over headroom |
Compared with TPS629210DRVR and TPS629206DRLR, the TPS629210DRLR-ET uniquely combines 1-A capability, VOS remote sensing, and extended-temperature reliability in the smallest thermally optimized SOT-5X3 footprint - making it the sole option for high-accuracy, high-reliability aerospace POE designs where layout area and thermal derating are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for the TPS629210DRLR-ET?
The TPS629210DRLR-ET has a specified operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Thermal shutdown activates at 170°C (with 20°C hysteresis), but continuous operation above +150°C reduces lifetime and is outside guaranteed specifications. Derating curves in the datasheet show RθJA = 120°C/W on JEDEC PCB, meaning 1-A load at 12-V input requires ≤30°C ambient to stay within 150°C TJ.
Does the TPS629210DRLR-ET support remote output voltage sensing?
Yes, the TPS629210DRLR-ET supports true remote sensing via its dedicated VOS pin. This pin connects directly to the positive terminal of the output capacitor, enabling the IC to compensate for IR drop across PCB traces or connectors - a critical feature for maintaining ±1% regulation accuracy in distributed power architectures used in aerospace and rail systems.
Can the TPS629210DRLR-ET operate with a 3-V input and 3.3-V output simultaneously?
Yes, the TPS629210DRLR-ET supports 100% duty cycle operation, allowing it to regulate a 3.3-V output from a 3-V input (with minimal dropout). In this condition, the high-side FET remains continuously on, bypassing switching losses - a key advantage for battery-powered systems nearing end-of-discharge where input voltage approaches output voltage.
How does the MODE/S-CONF pin configure switching frequency on the TPS629210DRLR-ET?
The MODE/S-CONF pin configures switching frequency via resistor value: 11.5 kΩ selects 1 MHz auto PFM, 14.3 kΩ selects 1 MHz forced PWM, 9.31 kΩ selects 2.5 MHz forced PWM, and 7.50 kΩ selects up to 2.5 MHz auto PFM with AEE. Configuration is latched at startup; no runtime change is possible without toggling EN.
Is the TPS629210DRLR-ET pin-compatible with other devices in the TPS6292xx family?
Yes, the TPS629210DRLR-ET is explicitly pin-to-pin compatible with TPS629210, TPS629206, and TPS629203 per TI's datasheet. All share identical SOT-5X3 (8-pin) pinout, enabling drop-in replacement for design flexibility - though current rating, thermal limits, and feature sets differ across variants.
