Product details
Overview
TPS92560DGQ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a hysteretic-control LED driver IC designed for MR16/AR111 lamps operating from AC, DC, or electronic transformer sources. It delivers constant input current regulation (500 mA nominal), supports boost and SEPIC topologies, integrates active low-side rectifiers, and provides output overvoltage protection with 0.384 V typical OVP threshold.
For engineers reviewing the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB datasheet, TPS92560DGQ/NOPB pinout, TPS92560DGQ/NOPB application, or TPS92560DGQ/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified functional context, validated pin roles, confirmed thermal and electrical specs, and real-world lighting design constraints - including electronic transformer compatibility, input surge handling, and LED count–based power scaling without component changes.
Technical Context
The TPS92560DGQ/NOPB implements a peak-valley inductor current control scheme using hysteretic feedback, eliminating loop compensation while enabling fast transient response and high power factor (>0.9 at full load with AC input). Its ADJ pin senses output voltage via resistor divider to set input current reference, with adaptive current sourcing (11.5 µA typical for electronic transformers, 9.5 µA for 50/60 Hz AC) to compensate for input dead time.
It integrates two active low-side rectifiers (AC1/AC2) with 570 mΩ typical on-resistance and 52 mV turn-on threshold, replacing external bridge diodes. The gate driver (GATE/SRC) delivers 8.1 V typical high-level output with 14 ns fall time and operates from an internal 8.45 V VCC regulator (30 mA current limit), thermally protected by 165 °C shutdown with 30 °C hysteresis.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS92561DGQ/NOPB | Includes integrated 5-V LDO for biasing external circuitry; identical pinout and core functionality. | Required when auxiliary 5-V rail needed for sensors or communication ICs; adds 150 mW quiescent overhead. | Select TPS92561DGQ/NOPB only if system requires regulated 5-V supply; otherwise TPS92560DGQ/NOPB offers lower cost and simpler BOM. |
| LM3445MMX/NOPB | Fixed-frequency PWM controller (not hysteretic); requires external compensation network and lacks integrated rectifiers. | Better suited for high-precision current regulation with feedback from LED cathode; no built-in transformer compatibility features. | Choose LM3445MMX/NOPB for applications demanding tight ±1% LED current accuracy; TPS92560DGQ/NOPB preferred for transformer-agnostic simplicity and smaller footprint. |
Compared with TPS92561DGQ/NOPB, the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB reduces system cost and complexity by omitting the auxiliary LDO, while matching performance in MR16/AR111 retrofit use cases. Against LM3445MMX/NOPB, it eliminates external compensation and rectifier diodes, trading fine current regulation for plug-and-play transformer compatibility and faster design cycle.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the ADJ pin on the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB?
The ADJ pin on the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB serves dual functions: it sets the input current reference via a resistor divider from the LED string voltage, and acts as the input for output overvoltage protection (OVP). When the ADJ voltage exceeds 0.384 V typical, the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB disables the gate driver to protect against LED open-circuit faults. Its current-sourcing behavior (11.5 µA for electronic transformers) also compensates for input dead time.
Can the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB operate directly from 12-VAC without an external bridge rectifier?
Yes, the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB can operate directly from 12-VAC because it integrates two active low-side rectifiers on the AC1 and AC2 pins. These internal NMOS devices replace the two lower diodes of a standard bridge rectifier, allowing the IC to accept AC input while maintaining high efficiency (>85%) and eliminating the need for external rectification components in the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB application circuit.
What is the maximum recommended switching frequency for the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB in boost configuration?
The TPS92560DGQ/NOPB does not enforce a fixed switching frequency; its hysteretic control causes frequency to vary with input/output voltage and inductance. For electronic transformer applications, Texas Instruments recommends 1 MHz to 1.5 MHz to balance EMI, efficiency, and transformer compatibility. Inductor selection directly determines operating frequency - higher inductance lowers frequency, and vice versa - per Equation 19 in the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB datasheet.
How does the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB handle thermal overload conditions?
The TPS92560DGQ/NOPB incorporates a dedicated thermal shutdown circuit that disables the gate driver and turns off the internal regulator when junction temperature reaches 165 °C typical. Operation resumes only after temperature falls by 30 °C hysteresis, ensuring safe cooldown before restart. This protection is independent of VCC UVLO and remains active even under sustained overload, safeguarding the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB in enclosed MR16 lamp housings.
Is the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB pin-compatible with any other TI LED drivers?
Yes, the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB shares identical pinout and package (HVSSOP-10) with the TPS92561DGQ/NOPB. The only functional difference is that the TPS92561DGQ/NOPB adds an integrated 5-V LDO on the VCC pin, while the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB provides only the 8.45-V regulator. This makes the TPS92560DGQ/NOPB a direct drop-in replacement where the auxiliary 5-V rail is not required.
