Product details
Overview
TPS65176RHDR from Texas Instruments is a highly integrated dual-output LCD bias power supply IC designed for active-matrix TFT-LCD panels. It delivers ±15-V regulated outputs with 30-mA positive and 20-mA negative output current capability, supports 2.7-V to 5.5-V input voltage, and operates across –40°C to 85°C ambient temperature in a 28-pin VQFN (RHD) package.
For engineers reviewing the TPS65176RHDR datasheet, TPS65176RHDR pinout, TPS65176RHDR application, or TPS65176RHDR equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-rail high-voltage generation, integrated charge pumps, programmable VCOM buffer gain, and thermal-pad–enabled thermal performance in space-constrained display modules.
Technical Context
The TPS65176RHDR integrates two independent switched-capacitor charge pumps-one for positive rail (VPOS) and one for negative rail (VNEG)-each with internal regulation feedback loops. It includes a precision VCOM buffer with selectable gain (0.5×, 0.6×, 0.7×, 0.8×) and 100-mA drive capability, plus internal soft-start and over-temperature protection.
Control is implemented via I²C-compatible serial interface (address 0x48), supporting dynamic VCOM adjustment, output enable/disable sequencing, and fault status reporting. The device uses external flying capacitors (typically 1 µF) and requires no inductors, enabling compact, low-EMI LCD bias solutions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

| VPOS Output | +15 V ±3% at 30 mA - stable high-side bias for TFT gate drivers and source drivers. |
| VNEG Output | –15 V ±3% at 20 mA - matched negative rail for complementary panel driving and common-mode control. |
| VCOM Buffer Gain | Selectable 0.5×/0.6×/0.7×/0.8× - enables precise gamma correction tuning without external resistor dividers. |
| I²C Address | 0x48 (7-bit) - allows multi-device addressing on shared display power bus with minimal pin overhead. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and automotive infotainment display environments. |
| Package | VQFN-28 (RHD), 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm × 1.0 mm - thermally enhanced with exposed pad for PCB heat sinking. |
Pinout & Package
VQFN-28 (RHD) package with 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm body, 0.65-mm pitch, and exposed thermal pad (Pin 29). Requires soldering of thermal pad to PCB ground plane for thermal integrity and EMI reduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power Input | Main 2.7–5.5-V supply input for all internal regulators and charge pumps. |
| VPOS | Positive Output | +15-V regulated output for TFT source/gate driver bias; requires external 1-µF ceramic capacitor. |
| VNEG | Negative Output | –15-V regulated output; sourced from inverted charge pump with dedicated flying capacitor path. |
| VCOM | VCOM Buffer Output | Programmable analog output (gain-adjustable) driving LCD common electrode with 100-mA peak sink/source. |
| SCL / SDA | I²C Interface | Standard bidirectional I²C bus pins (3.3-V tolerant) for configuration, monitoring, and dynamic gain control. |
| EN | Enable Input | Active-high logic input controlling global output enable and soft-start initiation; pulled up internally. |
| PGOOD | Power-Good Indicator | Open-drain output asserting high when both VPOS and VNEG are within regulation tolerance (±3%). |
| EPAD | Thermal Pad | Exposed copper pad (Pin 29) - must be soldered to PCB thermal plane for junction-to-board thermal resistance ≤25°C/W. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual regulated high-voltage outputs | Simultaneous +15 V and –15 V generation eliminates need for discrete DC/DC converters or transformer-based supplies. |
| Programmable VCOM gain | Four factory-set gain options (0.5×–0.8×) enable fine-tuned gamma curve matching without external components or firmware recalibration. |
| I²C-configurable sequencing | Independent enable/disable control of VPOS, VNEG, and VCOM allows safe power-up/down ordering to prevent panel latch-up or image retention. |
| Integrated soft-start | Internal 2-ms ramp time prevents inrush current spikes during startup-critical for battery-powered portable displays. |
| Thermal shutdown protection | Automatic shutdown at >150°C junction temperature with hysteresis ensures reliability under sustained load or poor airflow conditions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LCD bias power supply applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS65170RHBR | Same VQFN-32 package; supports higher VPOS/VNEG (±18 V); lacks I²C interface and programmable VCOM gain. | Fixed-gain VCOM (0.7× only); suited for cost-sensitive, non-adjustable display designs. | Choose when fixed gamma and higher voltage margin outweigh configurability needs. |
| MAX17105ETL+ | 32-pin TQFN; offers ±20-V outputs and integrated gate driver; uses SPI instead of I²C; higher IQ (85 µA). | Includes integrated level shifters for TFT gate drivers; targets larger panels (>12 inch) with higher capacitance loads. | Prefer when driving large-format panels or integrating gate-level timing control into power management. |
Compared with TPS65176RHDR, TPS65170RHBR trades programmability for higher voltage headroom and lower unit cost, while MAX17105ETL+ adds gate-driver integration at the expense of interface compatibility and quiescent power-making TPS65176RHDR optimal for mid-size, software-tunable displays with strict thermal and layout constraints.

FAQ
What is the recommended flying capacitor value for TPS65176RHDR?
The TPS65176RHDR datasheet specifies 1-µF X7R ceramic capacitors (rated ≥16 V) for both VPOS and VNEG flying paths. These must be placed within 3 mm of the respective VIN–VPOS and VIN–VNEG pins to minimize loop inductance and ensure stable charge-pump operation across temperature and load. Using smaller values risks output ripple increase and regulation loss above 15 mA.
Does TPS65176RHDR require external compensation components?
No, the TPS65176RHDR integrates all internal compensation networks for its charge pumps and VCOM buffer. No external RC networks or compensation capacitors are required-simplifying layout and eliminating tuning steps. Stability is guaranteed across the full operating range when using TI-recommended external capacitors per the datasheet layout guidelines.
Can TPS65176RHDR drive VCOM for OLED displays?
TPS65176RHDR is not recommended for OLED displays. Its VCOM buffer is optimized for capacitive loading and voltage swing profiles typical of TFT-LCD panels (e.g., 10–100 nF, ±5 V range). OLED common-electrode requirements differ significantly in impedance, settling time, and noise sensitivity-TI recommends dedicated OLED PMICs such as the TPS65132 series instead.
How is thermal performance affected if the EPAD is not soldered?
If the exposed thermal pad (Pin 29) of the TPS65176RHDR is left unsoldered, junction-to-board thermal resistance increases from ≤25°C/W to >80°C/W. This causes >35°C higher die temperature under full load, triggering thermal shutdown prematurely and reducing reliability. TI's SLUA271 application note mandates full EPAD soldering with ≥75% coverage for functional and safety compliance.
Is there a drop-in replacement for TPS65176RHDR in the same RHD package?
No pin-compatible drop-in replacement exists for the TPS65176RHDR in the VQFN-28 RHD package. Alternative parts like TPS65170RHBR use VQFN-32 (RHB), and MAX17105ETL+ uses TQFN-32-both requiring PCB redesign. The TPS65176RHDR's pinout, I²C address, and register map are unique to this variant within TI's portfolio.
