LOW INPUT VOLTAGE, 1-A LOW-DROPOUT LINEAR REGULATORS WITH SUPERVISOR
• 1-A Output Current
The TPS725xx family of 1-A low-dropout (LDO) linear
regulators has fixed voltage options available that are
• Available in 1.5-V, 1.6-V, 1.8-V, 2.5-V
commonly used to power the latest DSPs, FPGAs,
Fixed-Output and Adjustable Versions
and microcontrollers. An adjustable option ranging
(1.2-V to 5.5-V)
from 1.22 V to 5.5 V is also available. The integrated
• Input Voltage Down to 1.8 V
supervisory circuitry provides an active low RESET
• Low 170-mV Dropout Voltage at 1 A
signal when the output falls out of regulation. The no
(TPS72525)
capacitor/any capacitor feature allows the customer
to tailor output transient performance as needed.
• Stable With Any Type/Value Output Capacitor
Therefore, compared to other regulators capable of
• Integrated Supervisor (SVS) With 50-ms
providing the same output current, this family of
RESET Delay Time
regulators can provide a stand-alone power supply
• Low 210-µA Ground Current at Full Load
solution or a post regulator for a switch mode power
supply.
(TPS72525)
• Less than 1-µA Standby Current
These regulators are ideal for higher current appli-
cations. The family operates over a wide range of
• ±2% Output Voltage Tolerance Over Line,
input voltages (1.8 V to 6 V) and has very low
Load, and Temperature (-40°C to 125°C)
dropout (170 mV at 1-A).
• Integrated UVLO
Ground current is typically 210 µA at full load and
• Thermal and Overcurrent Protection
drops to less than 80 µA at no load. Standby current
• 5-Lead SOT223-5 or DDPAK and 8-Pin SOP
is less than 1 µA.
(TPS72501 only) Surface Mount Package
Each regulator option is available in either a
SOT223-5, D (TPS72501 only), or DDPAK package.
With a low input voltage and properly heatsinked
• PCI Cards
package, the regulator dissipates more power and
• Modem Banks
achieves higher efficiencies than similar regulators
• Telecom Boards requiring 2.5 V or more minimum input voltage and
higher quiescent currents. These features make it a
• DSP, FPGA, and Microprocessor Power
viable power supply solution for portable, bat-
Supplies
tery-powered equipment.
• Portable, Battery-Powered Applications
NOTE: TPS72501 replaces RESET with FB. Tab is GND for the DCK and KTT packages.
