TPS60231RGTR

Texas Instruments · LED Drivers · VQFN-16-EP(3x3)

TPS60231RGTR from Texas Instruments, in a VQFN-16-EP(3x3). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 ISET input Connect a resistor between this pin and GND to set the maximum current through the LEDs; recommended ISET current range is 4 µA to 130 µA.
2 NC unconnected No internal connection.
3 NC unconnected No internal connection.
4 D3 input Current sink input; connect the cathode of a white LED here, up to 25 mA per sink.
5 D2 input Current sink input; connect the cathode of a white LED here, up to 25 mA per sink.
6 D1 input Current sink input; connect the cathode of the first white LED here (the LED with highest forward voltage), up to 25 mA; D1 voltage is used to regulate VOUT.
7 PGND power_in Power ground.
8 VOUT power_out Charge pump output; connect the output capacitor (0.47 to 1 µF) and the anode of the LEDs to this pin, with overvoltage limit of 5.5 V typical.
9 C2+ passive Connect to the flying capacitor C2 (0.22 to 0.47 µF).
10 C1+ passive Connect to the flying capacitor C1 (0.22 to 0.47 µF).
11 C1- passive Connect to the flying capacitor C1 (0.22 to 0.47 µF).
12 C2- passive Connect to the flying capacitor C2 (0.22 to 0.47 µF).
13 VIN power_in Supply voltage input, 2.7 V to 6.5 V operating range.
14 GND power_in Analog ground.
15 EN1 input Enable input; logic high (above 1.3 V) enables the converter, and logic low with EN2 low forces shutdown with supply current under 1 µA; also used for PWM or digital dimming.
16 EN2 input Enable input for PWM dimming (0 to 50 kHz) or 4-step digital dimming with EN1; logic high above 1.3 V enables the converter.
17 PowerPAD passive Exposed thermal pad; connect with PGND and GND and solder to the board for thermal performance.
