It steps up from a 2.5V to 6V input rail to an adjustable output up to 18.5V, making it a fit for automotive power supplies that need to generate a higher-voltage bus from a regulated 3.3V or 5V supply — for example, biasing an automotive display backlight or powering a sensor module from the car battery. ## 650 kHz or 1.2 MHz — the inductor trade-off The switching frequency is pin-selectable between 650 kHz and 1.2 MHz. At 650 kHz you get better efficiency at higher input voltages and heavier loads, but the inductor needs to be larger to handle the ripple current. At 1.2 MHz the inductor shrinks — good for a compact 10-VSON layout — but switching losses rise and the duty-cycle range narrows. The part does not use synchronous rectification, so the external Schottky diode's forward drop and thermal rating need to be sized for the peak switch current. ## 125°C operating range — under-hood ready The 10-VSON package with exposed pad (3x3 mm) needs a good thermal via pattern to the ground plane to keep the junction temperature within the 125°C ceiling at the full 3.2A switch current. The base product number TPS61087 covers the non-automotive TPS61087DRCR variant, which is pin-compatible but lacks the AEC-Q100 qualification. For a BOM that requires automotive-grade parts, the QDRCRQ1 is the version to lock in.","metaTitle":"TPS61087QDRCRQ1 Automotive Boost Converter, 3.2A Switch","metaDescription":"Texas Instruments TPS61087QDRCRQ1 automotive-grade boost converter. 3.2A switch, 2.5V to 6V input, adjustable output to 18.5V.

The difference is the AEC-Q100 qualification on the Q version. A board laid out for the DRCR will accept the QDRCRQ1 without a layout change."},{"question":"Can TPS61087QDRCRQ1 handle 3.2A output continuously?","answer":"The 3.2A rating is the peak switch current limit, not the continuous output current. The actual continuous output current depends on the input-to-output voltage ratio, switching frequency, inductor value, and thermal management. At a typical 5V-to-12V conversion, expect around 1A continuous output before the switch current limit or thermal shutdown becomes the constraint."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/TPS61087QDRCRQ1","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/TPS61087QDRCRQ1 when reusing this data.
