description
This device is designed to have a fast transient response and be stable with 10-µF low ESR capacitors. This
combination provides high performance at a reasonable cost.
Because the PMOS device behaves as a low-value resistor, the dropout voltage is very low (typically 230 mV
at an output current of 1 A for the TPS76850) and is directly proportional to the output current. Additionally, since
the PMOS pass element is a voltage-driven device, the quiescent current is very low and independent of output
loading (typically 85 µA over the full range of output current, 0 mA to 1 A). These two key specifications yield
a significant improvement in operating life for battery-powered systems. This LDO family also features a sleep
mode; applying a TTL high signal to EN (enable) shuts down the regulator, reducing the quiescent current to
less than 1 µA at TJ = 25°C.
Power good (PG) is an active high output, which can be used to implement a power-on reset or a low-battery
indicator.
The TPS768xx is offered in 1.5-V, 1.8-V, 2.5-V, 2.7-V, 2.8-V, 3.0-V , 3.3-V, and 5.0-V fixed-voltage versions and
in an adjustable version (programmable over the range of 1.2 V to 5.5 V). Output voltage tolerance is specified
as a maximum of 2% over line, load, and temperature ranges. The TPS768xx family is available in a 20-pin PWP
package.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The TPS768xx family includes eight fixed-output voltage regulators (1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 2.7 V, 2.8 V, 3.0 V,
3.3 V, and 5.0 V), and offers an adjustable device, the TPS76801 (adjustable from 1.2 V to 5.5 V).
device operation
The TPS768xx features very low quiescent current, which remains virtually constant even with varying loads.
Conventional LDO regulators use a pnp pass element, the base current of which is directly proportional to the
load current through the regulator (IB = IC/β). The TPS768xx uses a PMOS transistor to pass current; because
the gate of the PMOS is voltage driven, operating current is low and invariable over the full load range.
Another pitfall associated with the pnp-pass element is its tendency to saturate when the device goes into
dropout. The resulting drop in β forces an increase in IB to maintain the load. During power up, this translates
to large start-up currents. Systems with limited supply current may fail to start up. In battery-powered systems,
it means rapid battery discharge when the voltage decays below the minimum required for regulation. The
TPS768xx quiescent current remains low even when the regulator drops out, eliminating both problems.
The TPS768xx family also features a shutdown mode that places the output in the high-impedance state
(essentially equal to the feedback-divider resistance) and reduces quiescent current to 2 µA. If the shutdown
feature is not used, EN should be tied to ground.
minimum load requirements
The TPS768xx family is stable even at zero load; no minimum load is required for operation.
FB - pin connection (adjustable version only)
The FB pin is an input pin to sense the output voltage and close the loop for the adjustable option. The output
voltage is sensed through a resistor divider network to close the loop as shown in Figure 27. Normally, this
connection should be as short as possible; however, the connection can be made near a critical circuit to
improve performance at that point. Internally, FB connects to a high-impedance wide-bandwidth amplifier and
noise pickup feeds through to the regulator output. Routing the FB connection to minimize/avoid noise pickup
is essential.
external capacitor requirements
An input capacitor is not usually required; however, a ceramic bypass capacitor (0.047 µF or larger) improves
load transient response and noise rejection if the TPS768xx is located more than a few inches from the power
supply. A higher-capacitance electrolytic capacitor may be necessary if large (hundreds of milliamps) load
transients with fast rise times are anticipated.
Like all low dropout regulators, the TPS768xx requires an output capacitor connected between OUT and GND
to stabilize the internal control loop. The minimum recommended capacitance value is 10 µF and the ESR
(equivalent series resistance) must be between 50 m and 1.5 . Capacitor values 10 µF or larger are
acceptable, provided the ESR is less than 1.5 . Solid tantalum electrolytic, aluminum electrolytic, and
multilayer ceramic capacitors are all suitable, provided they meet the requirements described above. Most of
the commercially available 10 µF surface-mount ceramic capacitors, including devices from Sprague and
Kemet, meet the ESR requirements stated above.

programming the TPS76801 adjustable LDO regulator
The output voltage of the TPS76801 adjustable regulator is programmed using an external resistor divider as
shown in Figure 27. The output voltage is calculated using:
VO+Vref ǒ1)R1
R2Ǔ(1
)
Where:
Vref = 1.1834 V typ (the internal reference voltage)
Resistors R1 and R2 should be chosen for approximately 50-µA divider current. Lower value resistors can be
used but offer no inherent advantage and waste more power. Higher values should be avoided as leakage
currents at FB increase the output voltage error. The recommended design procedure is to choose
R2 = 30.1 k to set the divider current at 50 µA and then calculate R1 using:

APPLICATION INFORMATION
power-good indicator
The TPS768xx features a power-good (PG) output that can be used to monitor the status of the regulator . The
internal comparator monitors the output voltage: when the output drops to between 92% and 98% of its nominal
regulated value, the PG output transistor turns on, taking the signal low. The open-drain output requires a pullup
resistor. If not used, it can be left floating. PG can be used to drive power-on reset circuitry or used as a
low-battery indicator. PG does not assert itself when the regulated output voltage falls out of the specified 2%
tolerance, but instead reports an output voltage low, relative to its nominal regulated value.
regulator protection
The TPS768xx PMOS-pass transistor has a built-in back diode that conducts reverse currents when the input
voltage drops below the output voltage (e.g., during power down). Current is conducted from the output to the
input and is not internally limited. When extended reverse voltage is anticipated, external limiting may be
appropriate.
The TPS768xx also features internal current limiting and thermal protection. During normal operation, the
TPS768xx limits output current to approximately 1.7 A. When current limiting engages, the output voltage scales
back linearly until the overcurrent condition ends. While current limiting is designed to prevent gross device
failure, care should be taken not to exceed the power dissipation ratings of the package. If the temperature of
the device exceeds 150°C(typ), thermal-protection circuitry shuts it down. Once the device has cooled below
130°C(typ), regulator operation resumes.
power dissipation and junction temperature
Specified regulator operation is assured to a junction temperature of 125°C; the maximum junction temperature
should be restricted to 125°C under normal operating conditions. This restriction limits the power dissipation
the regulator can handle in any given application. T o ensure the junction temperature is within acceptable limits,
calculate the maximum allowable dissipation, PD(max), and the actual dissipation, PD, which must be less than
or equal to PD(max).
The maximum-power-dissipation limit is determined using the following equation:
PD(max) +TJmax *TA
RqJA
Where:
TJmax is the maximum allowable junction temperature.
TA is the ambient temperature.
RθJA is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for the package, i.e., 172°C/W for the 8-terminal
SOIC and 32.6°C/W for the 20-terminal PWP with no airflow.
The regulator dissipation is calculated using:
PD+ǒVI*VOǓ IO
Power dissipation resulting from quiescent current is negligible. Excessive power dissipation will trigger the
thermal protection circuit.
