DESCRIPTION
The TPS74701 low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator
provides an easy-to-use, robust power management
solution for a wide variety of applications.
User-programmable soft-start minimizes stress on the
input power source by reducing capacitive inrush
current on start-up. The soft-start is monotonic and
well-suited for powering many different types of
processors and ASICs. The enable input and power
good output allow easy sequencing with external
regulators. This complete flexibility permits the user to
configure a solution that meets the sequencing
requirements of FPGAs, DSPs, and other
applications with special start-up requirements.
A precision reference and error amplifier deliver 2%
accuracy over load, line, temperature, and process.
The device is stable with any type of capacitor
greater than or equal to 2.2µF, and is fully specified
from –40°C to +125°C. The TPS74701 is offered in a
small 3mm × 3mm SON-10 package for compatibility
with the TPS74801.
