Texas Instruments TPS732/TPS732-Q1 Ultra LDO Voltage Regulators
Texas Instruments TPS732/TPS732-Q1 Ultra-Low-Dropout (LDO) Voltage Regulators use an NMOS pass transistor in a voltage-follower configuration. This device is stable using output capacitors with low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and even allows operation without a capacitor. The device also provides a ground pin current and high reverse blockage (low reverse current), nearly constant over all output current values.The Texas Instruments TPS732/TPS732-Q1 uses an advanced BiCMOS process to yield high precision while delivering very low dropout voltages and low ground pin current. When not enabled, the current consumption is less than 1µA and is designed for portable applications. The extremely low output noise (30µVRMS with 0.1µF CNR) is intended for powering VCOs. This device is protected by thermal shutdown and a foldback current limit. The TPS732-EP devices have gold bond wires, a temperature range of –55 to +105°C, and an SnPb lead finish. The TPS732-Q1 devices are AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications.
