DESCRIPTION  
The TPS6240x device series are synchronous dual step-down DC-DC converters optimized for battery powered  
portable applications. They provide two independent output voltage rails powered by 1-cell Li-Ion or 3-cell  
NiMH/NiCD batteries. The devices are also suitable to operate from a standard 3.3-V or 5-V voltage rail.  
With the EasyScale™ serial interface the output voltages can be modified during operation. The fixed output  
voltage versions TPS62401, TPS62402, TPS62403, and TPS62404 support one pin controlled simple Dynamic  
Voltage Scaling for low power processors.  
The TPS6240x operates at 2.25-MHz fixed switching frequency and enters the power save mode operation at  
light load currents to maintain high efficiency over the entire load current range. For low noise applications the  
devices can be forced into fixed frequency PWM mode by pulling the MODE/DATA pin high. In the shutdown  
mode, the current consumption is reduced to 1.2-mA, typical. The devices allow the use of small inductors and  
capacitors to achieve a small solution size.  
The TPS62400 is available in a 10-pin leadless package (3mm×3mm QFN)

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with  
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.  
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more  
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

NAME  
Input to adjust output voltage of converter 2. In adjustable version (TPS62400) connect a external resistor  
divider between VOUT2, this pin and GND to set output voltage between 0.6V and VIN. At fixed output  
voltage version (TPS62401) this pin MUST be directly connected to the output. If EasyScale Interface is  
used for converter 2, this pin must be directly connected to the output, too.  
ADJ2

I
This Pin has 2 functions:  
1. Operation Mode selection: With low level, Power Save Mode is enabled where the device operates  
in PFM mode at light loads and enters automatically PWM mode at heavy loads. Pulling this PIN to  
high forces the device to operate in PWM mode over the whole load range.  
MODE/DATA

I/0  
2. EasyScale™ Interface function: One wire serial interface to change the output voltage of both  
converters. The pin has an open drain output to provide an acknowledge condition if requested. The  
current into the open drain output stage may not exceed 500mA. The interface is active if either EN1  
or EN2 is high.

Direct feedback voltage sense input of converter 1, connect directly to Vout 1. An internal feed forward  
capacitor is connected between this pin and the error amplifier. In case of fixed output voltage versions or  
when the Interface is used, this pin is connected to an internal resistor divider network.

I
This pin defines the output voltage of converter 1. The pin acts either as analog input for output voltage  
setting via external resistors (TPS62400), or digital input to select between two fixed default output  
voltages (TPS62401, TPS62402, TPS62403, TPS62404).  
For the TPS62400, an external resistor network needs to be connected to this pin to adjust the default  
output voltage.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION  
OPERATION  
The TPS62400 includes two synchronous step-down converters. The converters operate with typically 2.25MHz  
fixed frequency pulse width modulation (PWM) at moderate to heavy load currents. If Power Safe Mode is  
enabled, the converters automatically enter Power Save Mode at light load currents and operate in PFM (Pulse  
Frequency Modulation).  
During PWM operation the converters use a unique fast response voltage mode controller scheme with input  
voltage feed-forward to achieve good line and load regulation allowing the use of small ceramic input and output  
capacitors. At the beginning of each clock cycle initiated by the clock signal, the P-channel MOSFET switch is  
turned on and the inductor current ramps up until the comparator trips and the control logic turns off the switch.  
Each converter integrates two current limits, one in the P-channel MOSFET and another one in the N-channel  
MOSFET. When the current in the P-channel MOSFET reaches its current limit, the P-channel MOSFET is  
turned off and the N-channel MOSFET is turned on. If the current in the N-channel MOSFET is above the  
N-MOS current limit threshold, the N-channel MOSFET remains on until the current drops below its current limit.  
The two DC-DC converters operate synchronized to each other. A 180° phase shift between converter 1 and  
converter 2 decreases the input RMS current.  
Converter 1  
In the adjustable output voltage version TPS62400 the converter 1 default output voltage can be set via an  
external resistor network on PIN DEF_1, which operates as an analog input. In this case, the output voltage can  
be set in the range of 0.6V to VIN V. The FB1 Pin must be directly connected to the converter 1 output voltage  
VOUT1. It feeds back the output voltage directly to the regulation loop.  
The output voltage of converter 1 can also be changed by the EasyScale™ serial Interface. This makes the  
device very flexible for output voltage adjustment. In this case, the device uses an internal resistor network.  
In the fixed default output voltage version TPS62401, the DEF_1 Pin is configured as a digital input. The  
converter 1 defaults to 1.1V or 1.575V depending on the level of DEF_1 pin. If DEF_1 is low the default is  
1.575V; if high, the default is 1.1V. With the EasyScale™ interface, the output voltage for each DEF_1 Pin  
condition (high or low) can be changed.

Converter 2  
In the adjustable output voltage version TPS62400, the converter 2 output voltage is set by an external resistor  
divider connected to ADJ2 Pin and uses an external feed forward capacitor of 33pF.  
In fixed output voltage version TPS62401, the default output voltage is fixed to 1.8V. In this case, the ADJ2 pin  
must be connected directly to the converter 2 output voltage VOUT2  
.
It is also possible to change the output voltage of converter 2 via the EasyScale™ Interface. In this case, the  
ADJ2 Pin must be directly connected to converter 2 output voltage VOUT2 and no external resistors may be  
connected.  
POWER SAVE MODE  
The Power Save Mode is enabled with Mode/Data Pin set to low for both converters. If the load current of a  
converter decreases, this converter will enter Power Save Mode operation automatically. The transition to Power  
Save Mode of a converter is independent from the operating condition of the other converter. During Power Save  
Mode the converter operates with reduced switching frequency in PFM mode and with a minimum quiescent  
current to maintain high efficiency. The converter will position the output voltage in PFM mode to typically  
1.01×VOUT. This voltage positioning feature minimizes voltage drops caused by a sudden load step.  
In order to optimize the converter efficiency at light load the average inductor current is monitored. The device  
changes from PWM Mode to Power Save Mode, if in PWM mode the inductor current falls below a certain  
threshold. The typical output current threshold depends on VIN and can be calculated according to Equation 1  
for each converter.

In order to keep the output voltage ripple in Power Save Mode low, the output voltage is monitored with a single  
threshold comparator (skip comparator). As the output voltage falls below the skip comparator threshold (skip  
comp) of 1.01 x VOUTnominal, the corresponding converter starts switching for a minimum time period of typ.  
1ms and provides current to the load and the output capacitor. Therefore the output voltage will increase and the  
device maintains switching until the output voltage trips the skip comparator threshold (skip comp) again. At this  
moment all switching activity is stopped and the quiescent current is reduced to minimum. The load is supplied  
by the output capacitor until the output voltage has dropped below the threshold again. Hereupon the device  
starts switching again.  
The Power Save Mode is left and PWM Mode entered in case the output current exceeds the current  
IOUT_PFM_leave or if the output voltage falls below a second comparator threshold, called skip comparator low  
(Skip Comp Low) threshold. This skip comparator low threshold is set to -2% below nominal Vout, and enables a  
fast transition from Power Save Mode to PWM Mode during a load step.  
In Power Save Mode the quiescent current is reduced typically to 19mA for one converter and 32mA for both  
converters active. This single skip comparator threshold method in Power Save Mode results in a very low output  
voltage ripple. The ripple depends on the comparator delay and the size of the output capacitor. Increasing  
output capacitor values will minimize the output ripple. The Power Save Mode can be disabled through the  
MODE/DATA pin set to high. Both converters will then operate in fixed PWM mode. Power Save Mode  
Enable/Disable applies to both converters.  
Dynamic Voltage Positioning  
This feature reduces the voltage under/overshoots at load steps from light to heavy load and vice versa. It is  
activated in Power Save Mode operation. It provides more headroom for both the voltage drop at a load step,  
and the voltage increase at a load throw-off. This improves load transient behavior.

At light loads, in which the converter operates in PFM Mode, the output voltage is regulated typically 1% higher  
than the nominal value. In case of a load transient from light load to heavy load, the output voltage drops until it  
reaches the skip comparator low threshold set to –2% below the nominal value and enters PWM mode. During a  
load throw off from heavy load to light load, the voltage overshoot is also minimized due to active regulation  
turning on the N-channel switch.

100% Duty Cycle Low Dropout Operation  
The converters offer a low input-to-output voltage difference while still maintaining operation with the use of the  
100% duty cycle mode. In this mode the P-channel switch is constantly turned on. This is particularly useful in  
battery-powered applications to achieve longest operation time by taking full advantage of the whole battery

With decreasing load current, the device automatically switches into pulse skipping operation in which the power  
stage operates intermittently based on load demand. By running cycles periodically the switching losses are  
minimized and the device runs with a minimum quiescent current, maintaining high efficiency.  
Under-Voltage Lockout  
The under-voltage lockout circuit prevents the device from malfunctioning at low input voltages, and from  
excessive discharge of the battery, and disables the converters. The under-voltage lockout threshold is typically  
1.5V; maximum of 2.35V. In case the default register values are overwritten by the Interface, the new values in  
the registers REG_DEF_1_High, REG_DEF_1_Low and REG_DEF_2 remain valid as long the supply voltage  
does not fall below the under-voltage lockout threshold, independent of whether the converters are disabled.  
MODE SELECTION  
The MODE/DATA pin allows mode selection between forced PWM Mode and Power Save Mode for both  
converters. Furthermore, this pin is a multipurpose pin and provides (besides Mode selection) a one-pin interface  
to receive serial data from a host to set the output voltage. This is described in the EasyScale™ Interface  
section.  
Connecting this pin to GND enables the automatic PWM and power save mode operation. The converters  
operates in fixed-frequency PWM mode at moderate-to-heavy loads, and in the PFM mode during light loads,  
maintaining high efficiency over a wide load current range.  
Pulling the MODE/DATA pin high forces both converters to operate constantly in the PWM mode, even at light  
load currents. The advantage is that the converters operate with a fixed frequency, allowing simple filtering of the  
switching frequency for noise-sensitive applications. In this mode, the efficiency is lower compared to the power  
save mode during light loads. For additional flexibility, it is possible to switch from power save mode to forced  
PWM mode during operation. This allows efficient power management by adjusting the operation of the converter  
to the specific system requirements.  
In case the operation mode is changed from forced PWM mode (MODE/DATA = high) to Power Save Mode  
Enable (MODE/DATA = 0), the Power Save Mode is enabled after a delay time of ttimeout , which is max. 520ms.  
The forced PWM Mode operation is enabled immediately with Pin MODE/DATA set to 1.  
ENABLE  
The device has a separate EN pin for each converter to start up each converter independently. If EN1 and EN2  
are set to high, the corresponding converter starts up with soft start as previously described.  
Pulling EN1 and EN2 pin low forces the device into shutdown, with a shutdown quiescent current of typically  
1.2mA. In this mode, the P and N-Channel MOSFETs are turned-off and the entire internal control circuitry is  
switched-off. For proper operation the EN1 and EN2 pins must be terminated and must not be left floating.  
DEF_1 PIN FUNCTION  
The DEF_1 pin is dedicated to converter 1 and makes the output voltage selection very flexible to support  
dynamic voltage management.  
Depending on the device version, this pin works either as:  
1. Analog input for adjustable output voltage setting (TPS62400):  
Connecting an external resistor network to this pin adjusts the default output voltage to any value starting  
from 0.6V to VIN  
2. Digital input for fixed default output voltage selection (TPS62401):  
In case this pin is tied to low level, the output voltage is set according to the value in register  
REG_DEF_1_Low. The default voltage will be 1.575V. If tied to high level, the output voltage is set  
according to the value in register REG_DEF_1_High. The default value in this case is 1.1V. Depending  
on the level of Pin DEF_1, it selects between the two registers REG_DEF_1_Low and REG_DEF_1_High  
for output voltage setting. Each register content (and therefore output voltage) can be changed  
individually via the EasyScale™ interface. This makes the device very flexible in terms of output voltage  
setting; see Table 4.

180° OUT-OF-PHASE OPERATION  
In PWM Mode the converters operate with a 180° turn-on phase shift of the PMOS (high side) transistors. This  
prevents the high-side switches of both converters from being turned on simultaneously, and therefore smooths  
the input current. This feature reduces the surge current drawn from the supply.  
SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION  
Both outputs are short-circuit protected with maximum output current = ILIMF(P-MOS and N-MOS). Once the  
PMOS switch reaches its current limit, it is turned off and the NMOS switch is turned on. The PMOS only turns  
on again, once the current in the NMOS decreases below the NMOS current limit.  
THERMAL SHUTDOWN  
As soon as the junction temperature, TJ, exceeds 150°C (typical) the device goes into thermal shutdown. In this  
mode, the P and N-Channel MOSFETs are turned-off. The device continues its operation when the junction  
temperature falls below the thermal shutdown hysteresis.  
EasyScale™: One-Pin Serial Interface for Dynamic Output Voltage Adjustment  
General  
EasyScale is a simple but very flexible one pin interface to configure the output voltage of both DC/DC  
converters. The interface is based on a master – slave structure, where the master is typically a microcontroller  
or application processor. Figure 34 and Table 3. give an overview of the protocol. The protocol consists of a  
device specific address byte and a data byte. The device specific address byte is fixed to 4E hex. The data byte  
consists of five bits for information, two address bits, and the RFA bit. RFA bit set to high indicates the Request  
For Acknowledge condition. The Acknowledge condition is only applied if the protocol was received correctly.  
The advantage of EasyScale™ compared to other one pin interfaces is that its bit detection is in a large extent  
independent from the bit transmission rate. It can automatically detect bit rates between 1.7kBit/sec and up to  
160kBit/sec. Furthermore, the interface is shared with the Mode/Data Pin and requires no additional pin.  
Protocol  
All bits are transmitted MSB first and LSB last. Figure 35 shows the protocol without acknowledge request (bit  
RFA = 0), Figure 36 with acknowledge (bit RFA = 1) request.  
Prior to both bytes, device address byte and data byte, a start condition needs to be applied. For this, the  
Mode/Data pin need be pulled high for at least tStart before the bit transmission starts with the falling edge. In  
case the Mode/Data line was already at high level (forced PWM Mode selection), no start condition need be  
applied prior the device address byte.  
The transmission of each byte needs to be closed with an End Of Stream condition for at least TEOS  
.
Addressable Registers  
Three registers with a data content of 5 bits can be addressed. With 5 bit data content, 32 different values for  
each register are available. Table 1 shows the addressable registers to set the output voltage when DEF_1 pin  
works as digital input. In this case, converter 1 has a related register for each DEF_1 Pin condition, and one  
register for converter 2. With a high/low condition on pin DEF_1 (TPS62401) either the content of register  
REG_DEF_1_high/REG_DEF1_low is selected. The output voltage of converter 1 is set according to the values  
in Table 4.  
Table 2 shows the addressable registers if DEF_1 pin acts as analog input with external resistors connected. In  
this case one register is available for each converter. The output voltage of converter 1 is set according to the  
values in Table 5. For converter 2, the available voltages are shown in Table 6. To generate these output  
voltages a precise internal resistor divider network is used, making external resistors unnecessary (less board  
space), and provides higher output voltage accuracy. The Interface is activated if at least one of the converters is  
enabled (EN1 or EN2 is high). After the startup-time tStart (170ms) the interface is ready for data reception.

Bit Decoding  
The bit detection is based on a PWM scheme, where the criterion is the relation between tLOW and tHIGH. It can  
be simplified to:  
High Bit: tHigh > tLow, but with tHigh at least 2x tLow, see Figure 34  
Low Bit: tLow> tHigh, but with tLow at least 2x tHigh, see Figure 34  
The bit detection starts with a falling edge on the MODE/DATA pin and ends with the next falling edge.  
Depending on the relation between tLow and tHigh a 0 or 1 is detected.  
Acknowledge  
The Acknowledge condition is only applied if:  
Acknowledge is requested by a set RFA bit  
The transmitted device address matches with the device address of the device  
16 bits were received correctly  
In this case, the device turns on the internal ACKN-MOSFET and pulls the MODE/DATA pin low for the time  
tACKN, which is 520ms maximum . The Acknowledge condition is valid after an internal delay time tvalACK. This  
means the internal ACKN-MOSFET is turned on after tvalACK, when the last falling edge of the protocol was  
detected. The master controller keeps the line low during this time.  
The master device can detect the acknowledge condition with its input by releasing the MODE/DATA pin after  
tvalACK and read back a 0.  
In case of an invalid device address, or not-correctly-received protocol, no-acknowledge condition is applied;  
thus, the internal MOSFET is not turned on and the external pullup resistor pulls MODE/DATA pin high after  
tvalACK. The MODE/DATA pin can be used again after the acknowledge condition ends.  
NOTE  
The acknowledge condition may only be requested in case the master device has an open  
drain output.  
In case of a push-pull output stage it is recommended to use a series resistor in the MODE/DATA line to limit the  
current to 500 mA in case of an accidentally requested acknowledge, to protect the internal ACKN-MOSFET.  
MODE Selection  
Because the MODE/DATA pin is used for two functions, interface and a MODE selection, the device needs to  
determine when it has to decode the bit stream or to change the operation mode.

The device enters forced PWM mode operation immediately whenever the MODE/DATA pin turns to high level.  
The device also stays in forced PWM mode during the entire protocol reception time.  
With a falling edge on the MODE/DATA pin the device starts bit decoding. If the MODE/DATA pin stays low for at  
least ttimeout, the device gets an internal timeout and Power Save Mode operation is enabled.  
A protocol sent within this time is ignored because the falling edge for the Mode change is first interpreted as  
start of the first bit. In this case it is recommended to send the protocol first, and then change at the end of the  
protocol to Power Save Mode.

To keep the operating current to a minimum, it is recommended to select R12 within a range of 180kto 360k.  
The sum of R12 and R11 should not exceed ~1M. For higher output voltages than 3.3V, it is recommended to  
choose lower values than 180kfor R12. Route the DEF_1 line away from noise sources, such as the inductor  
or the SW1 line. The FB1 line needs to be directly connected to the output capacitor. A feedforward capacitor is  
not necessary.  
Converter1 Fixed Default Output Voltage Setting (TPS62401, TPS62402, TPS62403, TPS62404).  
The output voltage VOUT1 is selected with DEF_1 pin.  
Pin DEF_1 = low:  
TPS62401, TPS62403, TPS62404 = 1.575V  
TPS62402 = 1.2V  
Pin DEF_1 = high:

TPS62402: = 1.8V  
TPS62404: = 1.9V  
Converter 2 Adjustable Default Output Voltage Setting TPS62400:  
The output voltage of converter 2 can be set by an external resistor network. For converter 2 the same  
recommendations apply as for converter1. In addition to that, a 33pF feedforward Capacitor Cff2 for good load  
transient response should be used. The output voltage can be calculated to:

OUTPUT FILTER DESIGN (INDUCTOR AND OUTPUT CAPACITOR)  
The converters are designed to operate with a minimum inductance of 1.75mH and minimum capacitance of 6mF.  
The device is optimized to operate with inductors of 2.2mH to 4.7mH and output capacitors of 10mF to 22mF.  
Inductor selection  
The selected inductor has to be rated for its DC resistance and saturation current. The DC resistance of the  
inductor will influence directly the efficiency of the converter. Therefore an inductor with lowest DC resistance  
should be selected for highest efficiency.  
Equation 6 calculates the maximum inductor current under static load conditions. The saturation current of the  
inductor should be rated higher than the maximum inductor current as calculated with Equation 7. This is  
recommended because during heavy load transient the inductor current rises above the calculated value.

with:  
f = Switching Frequency (2.25MHz typical)  
L = Inductor Value  
ΔIL = Peak-to-Peak inductor ripple current  
ILmax = Maximum Inductor current  
The highest inductor current occurs at maximum Vin.  
Open core inductors have a soft saturation characteristic and they can usually handle higher inductor currents  
versus a comparable shielded inductor.  
A more conservative approach is to select the inductor current rating just for the maximum switch current of the  
corresponding converter. Take into consideration that the core material from inductor to inductor differs and this  
difference has an impact on the efficiency.  
Refer to Table 7 and the typical application circuit examples for possible inductors.

Output Capacitor Selection  
The advanced fast response voltage mode control scheme of the converters allows the use of tiny ceramic  
capacitors with a typical value of 10mF to 22mF, without having large output voltage under and overshoots during  
heavy load transients. Ceramic capacitors with low ESR values results in lowest output voltage ripple, and are  
therefore recommended. The output capacitor requires either X7R or X5R dielectric. Y5V and Z5U dielectric  
capacitors are not recommended due to their wide variation in capacitance.  
If ceramic output capacitors are used, the capacitor RMS ripple current rating always meets the application  
requirements. The RMS ripple current is calculated as:

Vin

I
+ Vout

Ǹ

(8)  
At nominal load current the inductive converters operate in PWM mode and the overall output voltage ripple is  
the sum of the voltage spike caused by the output capacitor ESR, plus the voltage ripple caused by charging and  
discharging the output capacitor:

Vin  
L   ƒ

) ESRǓ  
DVout + Vout

(9)  
Where the highest output voltage ripple occurs at the highest input voltage Vin.  
At light load currents the converters operate in Power Save Mode and the output voltage ripple is dependent on  
the output capacitor value. The output voltage ripple is set by the internal comparator delay and the external  
capacitor. Higher output capacitors like 22mF values minimize the voltage ripple in PFM Mode and tighten DC  
output accuracy in PFM Mode.  
Input Capacitor Selection  
Because of the nature of the buck converter having a pulsating input current, a low ESR input capacitor is  
required to prevent large voltage transients that can cause misbehavior of the device or interference with other  
circuits in the system. An input capacitor of 10mF is sufficient.  
LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS  
As for all switching power supplies, the layout is an important step in the design. Proper function of the device  
demands careful attention to PCB layout. Care must be taken in board layout to get the specified performance. If  
the layout is not carefully done, the regulator could show poor line and/or load regulation, stability issues as well  
as EMI problems. It is critical to provide a low-inductance, impedance ground path. Therefore, use wide and  
short traces for the main current paths as indicated in bold in Figure 47.  
The input capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the IC pins VIN and GND, the inductor and output  
capacitor as close as possible to the pins SW1 and GND.

Connect the GND Pin of the device to the PowerPAD of the PCB and use this Pad as a star point. For each  
converter use a common Power GND node and a different node for the signal GND to minimize the effects of  
ground noise. Connect these ground nodes together to the PowerPAD (star point) underneath the IC. Keep the  
common path to the GND PIN, which returns the small signal components and the high current of the output  
capacitors, as short as possible to avoid ground noise. The output voltage sense lines (FB 1, DEF_1, ADJ2)  
should be connected right to the output capacitor and routed away from noisy components and traces (e.g., SW1  
and SW2 lines). If the EasyScale™ interface is operated with high transmission rates, the MODE/DATA trace  
must be routed away from the ADJ2 line to avoid capacitive coupling into the ADJ2 pin. A GND guard ring  
between the MODE/DATA pin and ADJ2 pin avoids potential noise coupling.

TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.  
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements  
for all 6 substances, including the requirement that lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered  
at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.  
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and  
package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS  
compatible) as defined above.  
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame  
retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous material)

IMPORTANT NOTICE  
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other  
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46C and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48B. Buyers should  
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All  
semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time  
of order acknowledgment.  
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms  
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary  
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily  
performed.  
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and  
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide  
adequate design and operating safeguards.  
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or  
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information  
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or  
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the  
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.  
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration  
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered  
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.  
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service  
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.  
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.  
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements  
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support  
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which  
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause  
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use  
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.  
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to  
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and  
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.  
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties  
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.  
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in  
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components  
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and  
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.  
TI has specifically designated certain components which meet ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. Components which  
have not been so designated are neither designed nor intended for automotive use; and TI will not be responsible for any failure of such  
components to meet such requirements.
