Product details
Overview
TPS65283RGER from Texas Instruments is a dual synchronous buck converter with integrated power distribution switch, delivering up to 3.5 A on Buck1 and 2.5 A on Buck2 across 4.5–18 V input, featuring 0.6 V ±1% feedback reference, adjustable 200 kHz–2 MHz switching frequency, and 60 mΩ N-channel power switch for USB port power management in set-top boxes and home gateways.
For engineers reviewing the TPS65283RGER datasheet, TPS65283RGER pinout, TPS65283RGER application, or TPS65283RGER equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed efficiency curves at 1.2 V/5 V outputs, real-world current-limit accuracy (±10% at 1.25 A), and precise thermal shutdown thresholds (160 °C buck, 145 °C switch) - all critical for automotive infotainment and network equipment power design.
Technical Context
The TPS65283RGER implements constant-frequency peak-current-mode control for both buck channels, enabling simplified loop compensation and optimized transient response; switching clocks are 180° out-of-phase to reduce input ripple and capacitor size. It integrates high-side and low-side MOSFETs (RDS(on) = 100/65 mΩ for Buck1, 140/95 mΩ for Buck2) and uses internal V7V LDO (6.3 V typical) to bias gate drivers.
Buck regulation employs 0.6 V ±1% reference with hysteresis-based PGOOD monitoring (92.5–107.5% UV/OV thresholds); the power distribution switch features programmable current limiting via RSET (9.1–80.6 kΩ), auto-recovery overcurrent protection, reverse-voltage blocking, and dedicated nFAULT open-drain output asserted under fault conditions longer than 6–10 ms deglitch window.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 18 V - supports wide-range industrial and automotive supply rails without external pre-regulation. |
| Buck1 Output Current | Up to 3.5 A continuous - sufficient for core logic or SoC VDD in digital TV and DSL modems. |
| Buck2 Output Current | Up to 2.5 A continuous - powers memory, interface ICs, or auxiliary rails in home gateway systems. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.6 V ±1% - enables precise low-voltage regulation (e.g., 1.2 V @ 2% tolerance) with minimal resistor divider error. |
| Switching Frequency | 200 kHz to 2 MHz - adjustable via ROSC resistor to balance EMI, efficiency, and inductor size. |
| Power Switch RDS(on) | 60 mΩ - ensures <150 mW conduction loss at 2.5 A, suitable for USB 5 V distribution with tight thermal budget. |
| Current Limit Accuracy | ±10% at 1.25 A - guarantees repeatable short-circuit protection across temperature and unit variance. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 160 °C (buck), 145 °C (switch) - protects silicon integrity during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
TPS65283RGER is housed in a thermally enhanced 24-pin VQFN (RGE) package, 4.0 mm × 4.0 mm, with exposed thermal pad soldered to PGND for optimal junction-to-board thermal resistance (RθJB = 14.5 °C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN1 (Pin 2) | Buck1 enable input | High-level active (≥1.26 V); internal pullup allows auto-start; RC delay enables sequencing. |
| FB1 (Pin 17) | Buck1 feedback sensing | Connects to resistor divider; regulates output to 0.6 V reference - sets VOUT1 = 0.6 × (1 + R1/R2). |
| LX1 (Pin 20) | Buck1 switching node | Drives external inductor; swings from ~–0.3 V to VIN1; requires low-ESR ceramic bootstrap cap to BST1. |
| BST1 (Pin 19) | Buck1 high-side gate drive supply | Capacitor (47 nF) between BST1–LX1 generates floating bias for internal HS MOSFET driver. |
| PGOOD1 (Pin 24) | Buck1 power-good indicator | Open-drain output; pulled low if VOUT1 deviates >7.5% OV or >5% UV for ≥1 ms (deglitch). |
| RSET (Pin 15) | Power switch current limit programming | Resistor sets IOS (e.g., 20 kΩ → 1.25 A ±10%); defines trip point for auto-recovery overcurrent protection. |
| nFAULT (Pin 6) | Fault status output | Active-low open-drain; asserts when power switch overcurrent or reverse-voltage persists >6–10 ms. |
| V7V (Pin 23) | Internal LDO output | 6.3 V regulated supply for gate drivers; decoupled with ≥1 µF ceramic; common AGND/PGND tie point. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual synchronous buck architecture | Integrated HS/LS MOSFETs eliminate external FETs and drivers - reduces BOM count and layout area by >30% vs discrete solutions. |
| 180° out-of-phase clocking | Reduces RMS input current ripple by ~30%, allowing smaller input capacitors and lower EMI filter cost. |
| Programmable current-limit switch | 60 mΩ NMOS with ±10% accuracy at 1.25 A enables reliable USB port protection without external sense resistors. |
| Internal 2.4-ms soft-start | Prevents inrush current into pre-biased loads - eliminates need for external timing components in most applications. |
| Hiccup-mode overload protection | Shuts down for 64 ms after 4-ms overcurrent, then auto-restarts - prevents thermal runaway during sustained shorts. |
| Reverse-voltage blocking | Prevents backfeed from SW_OUT to SW_IN during hot-swap or fault - protects upstream supplies in multi-rail systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-buck with power switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS65283-1RGER | Same pinout and specs, but uses pulse-skipping mode (PSM) at light load instead of continuous conduction mode (CCM). | Better light-load efficiency in always-on gateways; slightly higher output ripple vs CCM operation of TPS65283RGER. | Select TPS65283-1RGER when standby power <100 µA is critical; choose TPS65283RGER for lowest ripple in active-duty applications. |
| TPS65286RGER | Higher 4-A/3-A output capability, 2.7-V to 18-V input, no integrated power switch - requires external load switch for USB protection. | Supports higher-power SoCs; lacks monolithic USB switch, increasing BOM and layout complexity for port protection. | Choose TPS65286RGER only when >3.5 A Buck1 current is required; retain TPS65283RGER for integrated protection and space-constrained designs. |
Compared with TPS65283-1RGER, the TPS65283RGER provides tighter output voltage regulation under dynamic load due to CCM operation, while TPS65286RGER trades away integrated switch functionality for higher current headroom - making TPS65283RGER optimal for cost-sensitive, space-limited USB-powered consumer electronics requiring single-chip power and protection.

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor value for TPS65283RGER?
TI specifies a minimum 10 µF ceramic capacitor per input rail (VIN1 and VIN2), placed as close as possible to their respective pins. For robust performance across 4.5–18 V input range and 3.5 A/2.5 A loads, a parallel combination of 10 µF X7R + 1 µF X5R is recommended to ensure low impedance at high frequencies and handle ripple current without derating.
Does TPS65283RGER support synchronization to an external clock?
Yes, the TPS65283RGER supports external clock synchronization via the ROSC/SYNC pin (Pin 4). When an external clock signal (200–2000 kHz, ≥2 VHI, ≤0.4 VLO) is applied, the device automatically synchronizes its internal switching frequency to match, reducing beat frequencies and EMI in multi-rail systems.
How does the TPS65283RGER handle pre-biased outputs during startup?
The TPS65283RGER implements monotonic start-up into pre-biased loads: the internal soft-start circuit ramps the COMP pin voltage while monitoring FB, preventing reverse current flow. This behavior is confirmed in the datasheet's "Safe Monotonic Start-Up" section and requires no external components to function correctly.
What is the purpose of the V7V pin on the TPS65283RGER?
The V7V pin (Pin 23) is the output of an internal LDO regulated to 6.3 V (typical), which powers the gate drivers for both buck converters and the power distribution switch. It must be decoupled with ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to PGND, and AGND/PGND should connect at the capacitor's negative terminal to minimize noise coupling into analog circuits.
Can the TPS65283RGER operate with only one buck channel enabled?
Yes, the TPS65283RGER supports independent channel control: EN1 (Pin 2) and EN2 (Pin 3) can be driven separately. Disabling one channel (e.g., pulling EN2 low) halts switching on Buck2 while Buck1 remains fully operational, preserving efficiency and thermal margin in partial-load configurations like standby modes.
