3 Description
The TPS74901 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
during 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
≥ 2.2 µF, and the device is fully specified from –40°C
to 125°C. The TPS74901 is offered in a small (3 mm
× 3 mm) VSON package and a small (5-mm × 5-mm)
VQFN package, yielding a highly compact total
solution size. The device is also available in a
DDPAK-7 package.
