Typical Applications

TPSM5601R5 is suitable for 6 applications: 24-V and 48-V Industrial Bus Power Supplies, Factory Automation and PLC I/O Modules, Test and Measurement Point-of-Load Rails, Distributed Power Systems, Motor Drive and Motion Control Logic Supplies, Networking and Communications Infrastructure.

🏭

24-V and 48-V Industrial Bus Power Supplies

The TPSM5601R5's 4.2-V to 60-V input range directly accommodates 24-V and 48-V industrial distribution rails with transient headroom up to 60 V. Its 1-V to 6-V adjustable output at 1.5 A covers common logic and analog rails (3.3 V, 5 V) derived from the bus. Placed as the final regulation stage after bulk conversion, the integrated shielded inductor and internal compensation produce a compact, low-EMI solution requiring only about four external components, reducing BOM and layout risk in dense industrial control cabinets.

βš™οΈ

Factory Automation and PLC I/O Modules

PLC digital and analog I/O cards need a compact, reliable point-of-load from a 24-V backplane. The TPSM5601R5's -40C to +125C junction range and integrated magnetics withstand cabinet temperature swings without external inductor derating concerns. The 400-kHz fixed switching simplifies input filter design for EMI compliance, and the EN pin supports controlled power-up sequencing of card rails. All perimeter pins and a single thermal pad make automated optical inspection and rework straightforward in high-volume PLC manufacturing.

πŸ”¬

Test and Measurement Point-of-Load Rails

Instrumentation boards frequently combine a high-voltage input stage with sensitive analog loads. The TPSM5601R5 generates a clean 1-V to 6-V rail from a 60-V capable input, letting designers derive logic and analog supplies directly from wide-range auxiliary inputs. The Enhanced HotRod QFN's low EMI and integrated shielded inductor minimize switching artifacts coupling into measurement paths, and the adjustable output via one resistor divider speeds board bring-up and optioning across instrument product variants.

⚑

Distributed Power Systems

In distributed architectures, a 48-V intermediate bus feeds multiple point-of-load converters. The TPSM5601R5 provides local regulation at each load point, with its 60-V rating absorbing bus transients. Its small 5-mm x 5.5-mm footprint and integrated magnetics fit at the point of load without dedicated magnetics area, and the fixed 400-kHz frequency keeps ripple filter components predictable. The single-resistor output adjustment lets one PCB layout serve multiple rail voltages across a product family.

πŸ”§

Motor Drive and Motion Control Logic Supplies

Motor drives combine high-voltage stages with 24-V or 48-V control buses from which logic supplies are derived. The TPSM5601R5 powers gate-driver bias and controller rails (3.3 V/5 V at 1.5 A) from the control bus while tolerating bus transients up to 60 V. Its integrated shielding limits switching noise that could couple into encoder and feedback circuits, and the -40C to +125C junction range suits drive enclosures with limited airflow near power stages.

Networking and Communications Infrastructure

Telecom and networking equipment use 48-V plant power, making the TPSM5601R5's 60-V input a natural fit for board-level point-of-load conversion. The compact module delivers 3.3-V or 5-V rails for control processors and transceivers at up to 1.5 A. The 400-kHz fixed switching and integrated inductor ease compliance with conducted EMI limits, and the EN pin enables orderly sequencing with upstream hot-swap controllers during card insertion in live backplanes.

What is the input voltage range of the TPSM5601R5?
The TPSM5601R5 operates from a 4.2-V to 60-V input range. According to the TI datasheet, this wide input makes it suitable for 24-V and 48-V industrial rails with transient headroom, while the adjustable output covers 1 V to 6 V at up to 1.5 A with a fixed 400-kHz switching frequency.
What is the difference between TPSM5601R5 and TPSM5601R5S?
The TPSM5601R5S is equivalent to the TPSM5601R5 but adds spread-spectrum operation to reduce EMI peak emissions. Per the TI datasheet device comparison table, both deliver 60-V input, 1-V to 6-V output, 1.5 A at 400 kHz in the same 15-pin Enhanced HotRod QFN package, making the S variant the choice for EMI-sensitive systems.
What is the difference between TPSM5601R5 and TPSM5601R5H?
The TPSM5601R5H extends the output voltage range up to 16 V, whereas the standard TPSM5601R5 is limited to 1 V to 6 V output. Both share the same 60-V input, 1.5-A rating, 400-kHz switching, and 5-mm x 5.5-mm Enhanced HotRod QFN footprint, so they are drop-in related parts for higher-output needs.
What are the key specifications of TPSM5601R5 that engineers should know?
The TPSM5601R5 is a 1.5-A buck power module with 4.2-V to 60-V input, 1-V to 6-V adjustable output, fixed 400-kHz switching, and -40C to +125C junction range. It integrates power MOSFETs and a shielded inductor in a 5-mm x 5.5-mm x 4-mm 15-pin Enhanced HotRod QFN, needing only about four external components per the TI datasheet.
How many external components does a TPSM5601R5 design require?
A complete TPSM5601R5 solution requires as few as four external components, according to TI's product page. The integrated shielded inductor, MOSFETs, and internal compensation eliminate magnetics selection and loop-compensation design, so a typical circuit uses only input/output capacitors plus a feedback resistor divider to set the output voltage.
Where can I download the TPSM5601R5 datasheet PDF?
The TPSM5601R5 datasheet PDF is available on the Texas Instruments website at ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tpsm5601r5.pdf. The document is approximately 33 pages and covers the device comparison table, pin configuration, application information, layout guidelines, and thermal design recommendations for the Enhanced HotRod QFN package.
What is the best drop-in replacement for TPSM5601R5?
The closest same-package alternatives are TI's TPSM5601R5S (identical but with spread-spectrum EMI reduction) and TPSM5601R5H (same package but output extends to 16 V). No cross-brand pin-compatible drop-in in this exact Enhanced HotRod QFN footprint was found in verified sources; verify any substitute pinout against the 15-pin arrangement before production.
Is TPSM5601R5 suitable for 48-V telecom or industrial power rails?
Yes. The 60-V maximum input rating provides headroom above nominal 48-V rails, including typical transient conditions. With a 1-V to 6-V adjustable output at 1.5 A and -40C to +125C junction operation, the TPSM5601R5 fits 48-V distributed power, telecom point-of-load, and industrial bus applications requiring compact regulation.
Does TPSM5601R5 need a heatsink at full 1.5-A load?
The TPSM5601R5 does not require a heatsink, but thermal PCB design matters because the inductor is integrated. TI recommends a solid ground plane under the exposed thermal pad with thermal vias; provide at least a 1-square-inch copper pour for reliable full-load operation at elevated ambient temperatures.
How much does TPSM5601R5 cost and where can I buy it?
As of 2026-08-30, TPSM5601R5 pricing is approximately $4.85 at quantity 1, dropping to about $3.15 at 1,000 units on distributor channels. The part is available in tape-and-reel (TPSM5601R5RDAR) from DigiKey and Mouser; check current distributor stock for exact pricing and lead time before ordering.
Is TPSM5601R5 in stock and what is the lead time?
DigiKey lists the TPSM5601R5HRDAR variant as buy-now with same-day shipping, indicating generally healthy stock across the TPSM5601R5 family as of 2026-08-30. Lead time on XAIPART depends on warehouse allocation; contact sales for confirmed quantity availability and current lead times before committing production schedules.
TPSM5601R5 vs TPSM5601R5H - which is better for my application?
Choose the TPSM5601R5 if your output rail is 1 V to 6 V, such as 5-V or 3.3-V industrial point-of-load. Choose the TPSM5601R5H when you need outputs up to 16 V from the same 60-V input. Both share the identical 15-pin package and 1.5-A rating, so selection is driven purely by output voltage range.
Hey Google, what can replace a TPSM5601R5 power module?
For a true drop-in replacement, use TI's TPSM5601R5S if you want spread-spectrum EMI reduction, or the TPSM5601R5H for higher output voltage up to 16 V. No verified cross-brand pin-compatible equivalent exists in this Enhanced HotRod QFN footprint; functional alternatives from Murata or RECOM require board redesign and footprint changes.
What is the best cross-brand equivalent for TPSM5601R5?
No cross-brand equivalent in the same 15-pin Enhanced HotRod QFN package was found in verified sources. Functionally comparable wide-input modules (for example RECOM or Murata 60-V rated buck modules) exist but use different footprints and pinouts, so they require PCB rework rather than drop-in replacement. Verify any candidate against the TI datasheet pin configuration.
Is the TPSM5601R5 the same as TPSM5601R5HRDAR?
They belong to the same family but are not identical. The TPSM5601R5HRDAR is the H variant (output up to 16 V) in tape-and-reel packaging, while the standard TPSM5601R5 limits output to 6 V. Confirm the output voltage range you need before substituting one for the other on the same PCB.

Selection Guide

Choose TPSM5601R5 when you need a compact 1-V to 6-V, 1.5-A rail from a 24-V or 48-V industrial input and want minimal design effort - the integrated inductor and compensation mean only about four external components. Choose TPSM5601R5S if conducted or radiated EMI limits are strict, gaining spread-spectrum operation with no footprint change. Choose TPSM5601R5H when output voltages up to 16 V are needed from the same 60-V input, and TPSM5601R5H EXT for cold environments down to -55C. Trade-offs versus discrete buck converters such as the TPS54360 include higher unit cost and fixed 400-kHz frequency, but significantly faster time-to-market and lower layout risk. Cross-brand modules with similar ratings exist but none share this footprint, so board redesign would be required.

Key Differentiators

  • Integrated shielded inductor and compensation (vs TPS54360QDDARQ1 (discrete buck))
  • Spread-spectrum EMI variant in identical footprint (vs TPSM5601R5S)
  • Extended output and temperature variants (vs TPSM5601R5H / TPSM5601R5H EXT)

Design Notes

Because the shielded inductor is integrated, all heat dissipation is concentrated in the module package. TI recommends a minimum 1-square-inch copper pour on the ground layer connected to the exposed thermal pad through an array of thermal vias. Without adequate copper, full 1.5-A operation at 60-V input and high ambient temperatures may hit the +125C junction limit. Use the datasheet thermal derating curves for your exact VIN/VOUT operating point.

Place the input ceramic capacitor as close as possible to the VIN and GND pins to minimize high-frequency loop area. Keep the feedback resistor divider traces short and away from the SW node to avoid noise pickup on the output sense line. All functional pins are on the package perimeter, simplifying routing and inspection versus BGA-style modules.

The fixed 400-kHz switching frequency produces a predictable fundamental for input filter design. If conducted EMI limits are aggressive, choose the TPSM5601R5S variant, which operates identically but adds spread-spectrum modulation to reduce peak emissions. This can remove several dB of peak energy around 400 kHz without any PCB change since the footprint is identical.
