What are the key features of TPS62742DSST?
- Dual PWM/PFM control mode automatically switches to PFM at light loads for best-in-class efficiency over the full current range
- Adjustable output voltage from 1.8 V to 3.3 V covers common MCU, RF, and sensor supply rails
- Compact 12-pin SON package minimizes PCB footprint for battery-powered portable and IoT devices
What is TPS62742DSST used for?
TPS62742DSST is optimized for IoT sensor nodes, wireless modules, and portable consumer electronics powered by a 3.6 V single-cell Li-ion battery where the output rail must be stepped down to 1.8 V or 3.3 V with high efficiency across a wide load range. The automatic PFM/PWM mode transition reduces quiescent current at standby, extending battery life in duty-cycled applications. Its compact SON-12 footprint also suits smartwatches, hearing aids, and medical patches where board area is a premium.

Frequently Asked Questions
What input and output voltage ranges does TPS62742DSST support in a step-down design?
TPS62742DSST accepts an input voltage from 3 V to 5.5 V, with a nominal operating point at 3.6 V, and provides an adjustable output from 1.8 V to 3.3 V—covering the most common MCU and radio supply rails in a single device with no additional external regulators.
How does TPS62742DSST's PFM mode improve battery life in duty-cycled IoT applications?
When load current drops below a threshold, the TPS62742DSST transitions from PWM to PFM control, reducing switching frequency and quiescent current substantially—often below 10 µA—so a 200 mAh coin cell powering a sensor that sleeps 99% of the time can run for months longer than with a fixed-frequency converter.
What package does TPS62742DSST use and how small is its PCB footprint?
The TPS62742DSST uses a 12-pin SON (R-PDSO-N12) package with an exposed thermal pad, measuring approximately 2 mm × 2 mm, one of the smallest footprints available for an integrated switching regulator—ideal for smartwatch and medical-patch designs where total component area is counted in square millimeters.
When is TPS62742DSST a better choice than an LDO regulator for a 3.6 V Li-ion battery design?
A linear LDO converting 3.6 V to 1.8 V dissipates 50% of input power as heat at any load—meaning at 100 mA it burns 180 mW—while TPS62742DSST's switching architecture typically achieves 85%–92% efficiency at the same operating point, delivering over 3× longer battery runtime and eliminating the need for thermal relief copper.
