The TPS6286Axx devices are configurable as either an adjustable output voltage or a fixed output voltage, depending on the needs of each individual application. This feature simplifies the logistics during mass production, as one part number offers several fixed output voltage options as well as an adjustable output voltage option.
During the enable delay (tDelay), the device configuration is set by an external resistor connected to the VSET/MODE pin through an internal R2D (resistor to digital) converter. Table 7-2 shows the options. This configures the positive input to the error amplifier (EA) to be either the VFB voltage (0.6V typical) or the selected output voltage.

The R2D converter has an internal current source that applies current through the external resistor and an internal ADC that reads back the resulting voltage level. Depending on the level, the output voltage is set. After this R2D conversion is finished, the current source is turned off to avoid current flowing through the external resistor. Make sure that the additional leakage current path is less than 20nA and the capacitance is less than 30pF from this pin to GND during R2D conversion. Otherwise, a false value is set. For more details, refer to Benefits of a Resistor-to-Digital Converter in Ultra-Low Power Supplies white paper.
When the device is set as a fixed output voltage converter, then FB pin must be connected to the output directly. Refer to Figure 7-5.
After the start-up period (tStartup), a different operation mode can be selected. When VSET/MODE is high, the device operates in forced PWM mode. Otherwise, the VSET/MODE resistor pulls the pin low and the device operates in power save mode.
