Product details
Overview
TPS65920BZCHR from Texas Instruments is a highly integrated power management IC (PMIC) for OMAP™-based mobile systems, featuring three buck converters, four external LDOs, USB 2.0 OTG transceiver with ULPI interface, LED drivers, RTC, keypad interface, and 15 GPIOs - all in a 139-ball PBGA package. It delivers dynamic voltage scaling via SmartReflex™ Class-3 and supports industrial handheld and tablet applications requiring compact, multi-rail power sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the TPS65920BZCHR datasheet, TPS65920BZCHR pinout, TPS65920BZCHR application, or TPS65920BZCHR equivalent, key selection criteria include its triple-buck architecture, ULPI-compliant USB PHY, real-time clock with backup battery charging, 139-pin ZCH package compatibility, and SmartReflex-enabled adaptive voltage control for OMAP processors.
Technical Context
The TPS65920BZCHR implements dedicated SmartReflex™ Class-3 interfaces to dynamically scale VDD1 and VDD2 output voltages based on processor load states, enabling system-level power optimization. Its USB subsystem integrates a full HS OTG transceiver compliant with CEA-936A carkit specification and includes an internal charge pump for VBUS generation.
Power delivery is segmented into three independent buck regulators (VDD1, VDD2, VIO), each with dedicated feedback and switch pins, plus four configurable external LDOs (VAUX2, VRTC, VPLL1, VDAC) and multiple internal analog/digital rails (VINTANA1/2, VINTDIG, VINTUSB). The device uses a 32-kHz crystal oscillator (32KXIN/32KXOUT) and provides buffered 32KCLKOUT for system timing.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS65930A2ZCHR | Includes full audio codec (dual DAC/ADC, stereo TDM/I²S), differential mic inputs, and FM/AUX analog front-end not present in TPS65920BZCHR. | Suitable for voice-centric devices requiring hands-free calling, voice recording, or FM radio integration. | Select TPS65930A2ZCHR only if audio processing capability is required; TPS65920BZCHR offers lower cost and reduced complexity for non-audio PMIC use cases. |
| TPS65910A3ZCHR | Successor PMIC with enhanced SmartReflex™ Class-3 support, lower quiescent current (15 µA vs. 25 µA), and improved thermal performance in same ZCH package. | Targeted at next-generation OMAP4/5 platforms with tighter power budgets and higher integration density. | TPS65910A3ZCHR is a functional upgrade path; pin-compatible but requires firmware updates due to register map differences and added features like enhanced RTC alarm. |
Compared with TPS65930A2ZCHR and TPS65910A3ZCHR, the TPS65920BZCHR provides optimized cost and feature set for OMAP3-based designs where audio codec is unnecessary and legacy register compatibility is critical - making it ideal for volume production of established mobile platforms.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the TPS65920BZCHR in an OMAP-based system?
The TPS65920BZCHR serves as the central power management IC for OMAP application processors, providing three buck converters (VDD1, VDD2, VIO), four external LDOs, USB 2.0 OTG transceiver, RTC, keypad interface, and 15 GPIOs. It enables complete power sequencing, dynamic voltage scaling via SmartReflex™, and system-level supervision - eliminating the need for discrete power components in smartphones and tablets.
Does the TPS65920BZCHR support USB On-The-Go functionality?
Yes, the TPS65920BZCHR integrates a full USB 2.0 High-Speed OTG transceiver compliant with CEA-2011 and CEA-936A specifications. It supports host/peripheral mode switching, includes an internal 5-V charge pump for VBUS generation, and connects directly to OMAP UTMI+ via ULPI interface (DP/DN, UCLK, STP, DIR, NXT, DATA[0:7]) - no external PHY required.
How does the SmartReflex™ interface operate on the TPS65920BZCHR?
The TPS65920BZCHR implements two dedicated SmartReflex™ Class-3 interfaces (VMODE1 for VDD1, VMODE2 for VDD2) that accept dynamic voltage commands from the OMAP processor. These digital inputs adjust buck converter output voltages in real time to match processing load - reducing dynamic power consumption while maintaining timing margins. Feedback is handled internally; no external DAC or resistor network is needed.
What package type and dimensions does the TPS65920BZCHR use?
The TPS65920BZCHR is packaged in a ZCH (139-ball PBGA) package measuring 10.0 mm × 10.0 mm with 0.65-mm ball pitch. This fine-pitch BGA supports high-density routing and thermal dissipation in mobile form factors, and is mechanically and thermally qualified for reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020 standards.
Can the TPS65920BZCHR be used in systems requiring long-term RTC operation during main power loss?
Yes, the TPS65920BZCHR includes a fully integrated real-time clock powered by the VRTC.OUT LDO, which remains active when main VBAT is absent. It also features a dedicated backup battery charger (PCHGAC, VPRECH) that trickle-charges a coin-cell battery - ensuring >5 years of continuous RTC operation and timekeeping accuracy even after extended storage or power interruption.
