FX001 Buck Regulator Controller IC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FX001 is an active Buck Regulator Positive Output Step-Down DC-DC Controller IC manufactured by Texas Instruments, housed in a 24-VQFN (4x4) package with exposed pad. This PMIC functions as a transistor driver for step-down topology applications with dual outputs and single phase operation. The device integrates synchronous rectification and includes control features for enable, on-time control, and power good monitoring. Finding equivalent substitute parts is necessary to ensure supply chain flexibility, optimize inventory management, and maintain design continuity when the primary part number becomes unavailable or when alternative packaging formats are required for specific manufacturing processes.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the FX001 are qualified based on strict parametric equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitution logic is based on the following key parameters that must remain identical:

  • Output Type: Transistor Driver
  • Function: Step-Down
  • Output Configuration: Positive
  • Topology: Buck
  • Number of Outputs: 2
  • Output Phases: 1
  • Voltage Supply Range: 5.5V ~ 28V
  • Synchronous Rectifier: Yes
  • Control Features: Enable, On Time Control, Power Good
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C (TA)
  • Package / Case: 24-VFQFN Exposed Pad
  • Supplier Device Package: 24-VQFN (4x4)
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount
  • RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: 2 (1 Year)
  • REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

All substitute parts listed below meet these criteria. Variations in packaging format (Tape & Reel, Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) do not affect electrical equivalence and are determined by manufacturing and logistics requirements.
