Product details
Overview
TPS650003RTET from Texas Instruments is a highly integrated power management IC (PMIC) for portable applications, combining a 600-mA step-down DC-DC converter, two fixed-output LDO regulators (VLDO1 = 1.8 V, VLDO2 = 3.3 V), and spread-spectrum clock generation. It operates from 2.3 V to 6 V input, delivers up to 300 mA per LDO, and supports automatic PFM/PWM mode transition for efficiency optimization across load ranges - used in smartphone baseband processors and embedded point-of-load systems.
For engineers reviewing the TPS650003RTET datasheet, TPS650003RTET pinout, TPS650003RTET application, or TPS650003RTET equivalent, key selection considerations include its 2.25-MHz fixed switching frequency, 16-pin 3 mm × 3 mm WQFN (RTE) package, dual independent LDO enables, and absence of supply voltage supervisor (SVS) - distinguishing it from TPS65001/TPS650061 variants.
Technical Context
The TPS650003RTET implements a synchronous buck converter with internal high-side and low-side MOSFETs (RDS(on) = 240 mΩ / 185 mΩ), feedback-controlled via FB_DCDC pin referencing a 0.6-V internal bandgap. Its MODE pin selects between forced PWM (high) or auto PFM/PWM (low), enabling >85% efficiency at light loads and stable regulation under dynamic current steps.
Both LDOs feature separate input pins (VINLDO1/VINLDO2), independent enable inputs (EN_LDO1/EN_LDO2), and fixed outputs - VLDO1 = 1.8 V and VLDO2 = 3.3 V - with dropout voltage ≤370 mV at 300 mA. The device lacks SVS circuitry, confirming its classification as a TPS65000-series variant rather than TPS65001.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| DC-DC Output Current | 600 mA maximum - sufficient for powering ARM Cortex-A8/A9 core rails or FPGA I/O banks. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25 MHz fixed - enables use of small 2.2-μH inductors and 10-μF output capacitors for compact layout. |
| LDO1 Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8 V - matches standard I/O voltage for LPDDR2 memory interfaces and digital baseband logic. |
| LDO2 Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V - supplies analog peripherals, USB PHYs, or SD card controllers without external resistor networks. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.3 V to 6 V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V), Li-polymer, or dual-cell alkaline battery inputs directly. |
| Quiescent Current | 23–32 μA (typical, no switching) - extends battery life in always-on system standby modes. |

Pinout & Package
TPS650003RTET is housed in a 3 mm × 3 mm, 16-pin WQFN package (RTE) with exposed thermal pad. Pin numbering follows top-view orientation with pin 1 at top-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 EN_LDO1 | Digital enable input | Active-high control for 1.8-V LDO; must be pulled high for regulation - enables sequencing independence from DC-DC rail. |
| 2 EN_LDO2 | Digital enable input | Active-high control for 3.3-V LDO; decoupled from EN_LDO1 - allows staggered power-up of analog vs. digital subsystems. |
| 3 PG | Open-drain status output | Active-low power-good signal indicating all enabled rails (DC-DC + LDOs) are within ±1.5% regulation tolerance. |
| 4 PGND | Power ground return | High-current return path for DC-DC switch node and LDO pass FETs - must connect directly to exposed thermal pad. |
| 5 SW | Switch node output | Connects to inductor; carries pulsed current up to 1.4 A peak - requires tight loop routing to minimize EMI. |
| 6 VINDCDC | Main input supply | Primary input for DC-DC converter and internal bias - must be ≥2.3 V and ≥ VINLDO1/VINLDO2 per design guidelines. |
| 7 MODE | Operating mode select | Low = auto PFM/PWM transition; high = forced PWM - critical for noise-sensitive RF or audio subsystems. |
| 8 EN_DCDC | Digital enable input | Active-high control for buck converter - enables full shutdown of DC-DC stage to reduce system quiescent current. |
| 9 FB_DCDC | Voltage feedback input | Connects to resistor divider on DC-DC output - sets regulated voltage; not used in TPS650003 due to fixed 1.5-V output. |
| 10 AGND | Analog ground reference | Low-noise reference for error amplifiers and bandgap - must be star-connected to PGND near IC for stability. |
| 11 FB_LDO1 | LDO1 feedback input | Not connected in TPS650003 - 1.8-V output is internally fixed; pin left floating or tied to AGND per layout guidance. |
| 12 VLDO1 | LDO1 output | Delivers regulated 1.8 V at up to 300 mA - suitable for processor I/O, DDR termination, or sensor interface rails. |
| 13 VINLDO1 | LDO1 input supply | Accepts 1.6–6 V - can be sourced from DC-DC output or independent battery rail for flexible power domain partitioning. |
| 14 FB_LDO2 | LDO2 feedback input | Not connected in TPS650003 - 3.3-V output is internally fixed; pin left floating or tied to AGND. |
| 15 VLDO2 | LDO2 output | Delivers regulated 3.3 V at up to 300 mA - powers USB transceivers, SDIO, or analog front-end components. |
| 16 VINLDO2 | LDO2 input supply | Accepts 1.6–6 V - supports direct connection to main battery for always-on functions independent of DC-DC state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Spread-spectrum clock generation | Reduces peak EMI by modulating 2.25-MHz switching frequency - eliminates need for external EMI filters in FCC/CE-constrained designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-rail power management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS650001RTET | Fixed 1.2-V DC-DC output; LDO1 = 3.3 V, LDO2 = 1.8 V - reversed LDO voltage assignment and lower DC-DC VOUT. | Suitable for systems requiring 1.2-V core rail (e.g., Cortex-M4) with swapped analog/digital LDO assignments. | Select when core voltage must be 1.2 V and LDO sequencing demands 3.3-V first, not 1.8-V. |
| TPS650006RTET | Fixed 1.2-V DC-DC output; LDO1 = 3.3 V, LDO2 = 1.8 V - identical LDO configuration to TPS650001 but same DC-DC as TPS650001. | Matches TPS650001's rail mapping; differs only in orderable part number - functionally identical to TPS650001RTET. | Use as drop-in replacement for TPS650001RTET where inventory or lead time favors TPS650006RTET. |
Compared with TPS650003RTET, TPS650001RTET and TPS650006RTET provide 1.2-V DC-DC output instead of 1.5 V and swap LDO voltages - making them unsuitable for designs requiring strict 1.5-V core or 1.8-V-first sequencing, but viable for 1.2-V core architectures with inverted LDO dependencies.

FAQ
What is the DC-DC output voltage of TPS650003RTET?
The TPS650003RTET features a fixed 1.5-V DC-DC output voltage, as confirmed in TI's SLVS810C datasheet Device Options table. This value is factory-trimmed and does not require external feedback resistors - unlike adjustable variants such as TPS65000 or TPS650061. The TPS650003RTET's FB_DCDC pin is unused in this configuration.
Does TPS650003RTET include a supply voltage supervisor (SVS)?
No, TPS650003RTET does not include a supply voltage supervisor. Per the SLVS810C datasheet, SVS functionality is exclusive to TPS65001 and TPS650061 variants. The TPS650003RTET belongs to the TPS65000 series, which omits RST, MR, TRST, and RSTSNS pins - confirmed by its 16-pin RTE package versus the 20-pin RUK package of SVS-equipped parts.
What are the LDO output voltages on TPS650003RTET?
The TPS650003RTET provides two fixed-output LDOs: VLDO1 delivers 1.8 V and VLDO2 delivers 3.3 V, both rated for up to 300 mA continuous output current. These values are internally set and do not require external resistor networks - verified in the Device Options table and Electrical Characteristics section of SLVS810C.
Which package type is used by TPS650003RTET?
The TPS650003RTET uses a 16-pin, 3 mm × 3 mm WQFN package with exposed thermal pad (RTE suffix). This is distinct from the 20-pin RUK package used by SVS-enabled variants like TPS65001. The RTE package has lower thermal resistance (RθJA = 44.7°C/W) and is optimized for space-constrained portable designs.
Can TPS650003RTET operate from a single-cell Li-ion battery?
Yes, TPS650003RTET supports input voltages from 2.3 V to 6 V, fully covering the discharge range of a single-cell Li-ion battery (typically 3.0 V to 4.2 V). Its 2.3-V minimum VINDCDC threshold and ≤370-mV LDO dropout ensure regulation remains active even at end-of-discharge voltage - critical for maximizing usable battery capacity.
