Product details
Overview
TPS6521910RSMR from Texas Instruments is a programmable Power Management IC (PMIC) integrating three synchronous buck converters (1×3.5A, 2×2A) and four LDOs (2×400mA, 2×300mA), designed for AM62A/AM67 SoCs in industrial applications requiring precise power sequencing, dynamic voltage scaling, and I²C-based configuration across –40°C to +105°C ambient.
For engineers reviewing the TPS6521910RSMR datasheet, TPS6521910RSMR pinout, TPS6521910RSMR application, or TPS6521910RSMR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, validated 32-pin RSM QFN package mapping, confirmed EEPROM-programmable rail defaults, and real-world sequencing behavior for LPDDR4 memory and dual-core processor subsystems.
Technical Context
The TPS6521910RSMR implements quasi-fixed-frequency PWM/PFM hybrid control with dynamic voltage scaling on all three bucks, supporting 2.3MHz switching and configurable soft-start timing. Its I²C interface (Standard/Fast/Fast+) enables register-level access to 128-byte NVM for power-up/down sequences, fault monitoring, and rail enable/disable states.
It integrates two multi-function pins (MODE/STBY, MODE/RESET) for hardware-triggered low-power entry and warm/cold reset, plus VSEL_SD/VSEL_DDR for runtime SD-card or DDR voltage selection-enabling direct integration with TI's AM62A/AM67 processors without external logic.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
TPS6521910RSMR uses a 32-pin QFN package (RSM) with 4.00mm × 4.00mm footprint and exposed thermal pad (PGND). Pin assignment matches TI's official RSM top-view layout (SLVSGA0D, Figure 5-2), with dedicated power, feedback, I²C, GPIO, and multi-function pins.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| FB_B1 (Pin 1) | Buck1 Feedback Input | Connects to Buck1 output filter; sets regulated VDD_CORE voltage via internal resistor divider; tied to GND if rail disabled. |
| LX_B1_1 / LX_B1_2 (Pins 2–3) | Buck1 Switch Node | Parallel switch outputs driving single 470nH inductor; requires low-inductance PCB routing to minimize EMI and voltage spikes. |
| PVIN_B1_1 / PVIN_B1_2 (Pins 4–5) | Buck1 Input Power | Dual-input path sharing 4.7µF ceramic bypass; must not exceed VSYS by >200mV; connect to VSYS if unused. |
| VSEL_SD/VSEL_DDR (Pin 12) | Multi-Function Select | Configurable as SD-card IO voltage selector (1.8V ↔ register VOUT) or DDR voltage select (1.2V/1.35V/floating); no external pull required. |
| EN/PB/VSENSE (Pin 25) | Enable / Push-Button / Sense | Hardware ON/OFF trigger: 600ms low = ON, 8s low = OFF; or power-fail comparator input using resistor divider from pre-regulator. |
| MODE/STBY (Pin 31) | Low-Power Mode Control | Level-sensitive input enabling STBY state; disables selected rails while retaining LDO1 for always-on functions; combines with MODE/RESET for PWM/PSM control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| EEPROM Programmability | 128-byte non-volatile memory stores default rail voltages, sequencing order, timeout values, and I²C address-enabling one-time configuration for AM62A/AM67 boot without host firmware intervention. |
| Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) | All three buck converters support real-time VOUT adjustment via I²C during operation, enabling adaptive core voltage tuning for AM62A/AM67 performance states (e.g., 0.75V → 0.85V during high-load bursts). |
| Multi-PMIC Coordination | GPIO and MODE/RESET pins synchronize power-up/down across up to two TPS65219 devices, supporting systems requiring >14 rails (e.g., dual-SoC industrial gateways). |
| SD-Card Load-Switch Support | LDO1 and LDO2 operate in bypass mode with controlled turn-on/off timing, meeting SDIO specification voltage transition requirements (tR/tF < 10µs) without external FETs. |
| Industrial Thermal Robustness | RSM package achieves RΘJB = 10.5°C/W to PCB ground plane, enabling stable 3.5A Buck1 operation at 105°C ambient with standard 2-layer board layout and thermal vias under PGND pad. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power management IC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS6521905RSMR | User-programmable version with all rails OFF by default; requires full I²C initialization before first power-up. | Suitable for custom SoCs or multi-processor platforms where EEPROM defaults cannot be pre-configured. | Select when flexibility to support diverse processors (e.g., STM32MP135, i.MX93) outweighs need for AM62A/AM67 out-of-box operation. |
| TPS6521909RSMR | Pre-programmed for AM62A/AM67 with identical VDD_CORE options (0.75V/0.85V) but fixed LPDDR4 timing and no VSEL_DDR functionality. | Optimized for cost-sensitive AM62A designs without DDR voltage switching requirements. | Choose when VSEL_SD is sufficient and DDR voltage selection is unnecessary-reduces software complexity and validation effort. |
Compared with TPS6521910RSMR, TPS6521905RSMR demands full I²C bring-up before power delivery, while TPS6521909RSMR lacks VSEL_DDR configurability-making TPS6521910RSMR the optimal choice for AM62A/AM67 systems requiring runtime DDR voltage adaptation and guaranteed EEPROM defaults.

FAQ
What is the primary target processor for TPS6521910RSMR?
The TPS6521910RSMR is specifically pre-programmed for Texas Instruments' AM62A and AM67 processors, supporting their LPDDR4 memory interface and dual-core ARM Cortex-A53/A72 power requirements. It configures VDD_CORE to either 0.75V or 0.85V via EEPROM, matching the TRM-specified operating points for these SoCs. The device also enables VSEL_SD and VSEL_DDR functionality required for SD-card and DDR voltage switching in AM62A/AM67 reference designs.
Does TPS6521910RSMR support dynamic voltage scaling on all buck converters?
Yes, TPS6521910RSMR supports real-time dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) on all three buck converters via its I²C interface. This allows firmware to adjust VDD_CORE, DDR I/O, and auxiliary rail voltages during operation-critical for AM62A/AM67 performance states. DVS resolution is 25mV for outputs ≤1.4V and 100mV above that, with typical settling time <50µs per step, as verified in TI's SLVUD09 application note.
How does the EN/PB/VSENSE pin function in TPS6521910RSMR?
The EN/PB/VSENSE pin on TPS6521910RSMR operates in three configurable modes: as an enable input (high = ON), push-button monitor (600ms low = ON, 8s low = OFF), or power-fail comparator input (using external resistor divider). In AM62A/AM67 systems, it is typically used in PB mode for mechanical power control, eliminating need for external microcontroller supervision during cold start or emergency shutdown.
What is the thermal performance of TPS6521910RSMR in its RSM package?
TPS6521910RSMR in the 4.00mm × 4.00mm RSM QFN package has a junction-to-board thermal resistance (RΘJB) of 10.5°C/W and junction-to-ambient (RΘJA) of 31.9°C/W. With proper PCB layout-including thermal vias under the exposed PGND pad and ≥1in² copper pour-it sustains continuous 3.5A output on Buck1 at 105°C ambient without derating, as validated in TI's thermal characterization report SLVSGA0D.
Can TPS6521910RSMR be used in multi-PMIC configurations?
Yes, TPS6521910RSMR supports coordinated operation with a second TPS65219 device using GPIO and MODE/RESET pins for synchronization. This enables systems requiring >14 rails-such as dual-SoC industrial gateways-by distributing buck and LDO loads across both PMICs while maintaining strict sequencing alignment and shared fault handling, as documented in Section 7.5 of the SLVSGA0D datasheet.
