The usual PNP pass transistor has been replaced
by a PMOS pass element. Because the PMOS
pass element behaves as a low-value resistor, the
dropout voltage is very low, typically 57 mV at
50 mA of load current (TPS79030), and is directly
proportional to the load current. The quiescent
current is ultralow (17 µA typically) and is stable
over the entire range of output load current (0 mA
to 50 mA). Intended for use in portable systems
such as laptops and cellular phones, the
ultralow-dropout voltage feature and ultralowpower operation result in a significant increase in
system battery operating life.

The TPS790xx family of low-dropout (LDO)
voltage regulators offers the benefits of
low-dropout voltage, ultralow-power operation,
low-output noise, and miniaturized packaging.
These regulators feature low-dropout voltages
and ultralow quiescent current compared to
conventional LDO regulators. An internal resistor,
in conjunction with an external bypass capacitor,
creates a low-pass filter to reduce the noise. The
TPS79030 exhibits only 56 µVRMS of output
voltage noise using 0.01 µF bypass and 10 µF
output capacitors. Offered in a 5-terminal small
outline integrated-circuit SOT-23 package, the
TPS790xx series devices are ideal for
micropower operations, low output noise, and
where board space is limited.

detail description
The TPS790xx uses a PMOS pass element to dramatically reduce both dropout voltage and supply current over
more conventional PNP-pass-element LDO designs. The PMOS pass element is a voltage-controlled device
and, unlike a PNP transistor, it does not require increased drive current as output current increases. Supply
current in the TPS790xx is essentially constant from no load to maximum load.
The TPS790xx family of low-dropout (LDO) regulators have been optimized for use in battery-operated
equipment. They feature extremely low dropout voltages, low output noise, low quiescent current (17 µA
typically), and enable inputs to reduce supply currents to 1 µA when the regulators are turned off.
The internal voltage reference is a key source of noise in a LDO regulator. The TPS790xx has a BYPASS pin
which is connected to the voltage reference through a 150-kΩ internal resistor. The 150-kΩ internal resistor,
in conjunction with an external bypass capacitor connected to the BYPASS pin, creates a low pass filter to
reduce the voltage reference noise and, therefore, the noise at the regulator output. Note that the output will
start up slower as the bypass capacitance increases due to the RC time constant at the bypass pin that is created
by the internal 150-kΩ resistor and external capacitor.
Current limiting and thermal protection prevent damage by excessive output current and/or power dissipation.
The device switches into a constant-current mode at approximately 350 mA; further load reduces the output
voltage instead of increasing the output current. The thermal protection shuts the regulator off if the junction
temperature rises above approximately 165°C. Recovery is automatic when the junction temperature drops
approximately 25°C below the high temperature trip point. The PMOS pass element includes a back gate diode
that conducts reverse current when the input voltage level drops below the output voltage level.
A voltage of 1.7 V or greater on the EN input will disable the TPS790xx internal circuitry, reducing the supply
current to 1 µA. A voltage of less than 0.9 V on the EN input will enable the TPS790xx and will enable normal
operation to resume. The EN input does not include any deliberate hysteresis, and it exhibits an actual switching
threshold of approximately 1.5 V.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The TPS790xx family of low-dropout (LDO) regulators have been optimized for use in battery-operated
equipment. They feature extremely low dropout voltages, low quiescent current (17 µA typically), and enable
inputs to reduce supply currents to less than 1 µA when the regulators are turned off.
A typical application circuit is shown in Figure 26.

external capacitor requirements
Although not required, a 0.047-µF or larger ceramic input bypass capacitor, connected between IN and GND
and located close to the TPS790xx, is recommended to improve transient response and noise rejection. A
higher-value electrolytic input capacitor may be necessary if large, fast-rise-time load transients are anticipated
and the device is located several inches from the power source.
Like all low dropout regulators, the TPS790xx requires an output capacitor connected between OUT and GND
to stabilize the internal control loop. The minimum recommended capacitance is 4.7 µF. The ESR (equivalent
series resistance) of the capacitor should be between 0.2 Ω and 10 Ω to ensure stability. Capacitor values larger
than 4.7 µF are acceptable, and allow the use of smaller ESR values. Capacitances less than 4.7 µF are not
recommended because they require careful selection of ESR to ensure stability. Solid tantalum electrolytic,
aluminum electrolytic, and multilayer ceramic capacitors are all suitable, provided they meet the requirements
described above. Most of the commercially available 4.7 µF surface-mount solid tantalum capacitors, including
devices from Sprague, Kemet, and Nichico, meet the ESR requirements stated above. Multilayer ceramic
capacitors may have very small equivalent series resistances and may thus require the addition of a low value
series resistor to ensure stability.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
external capacitor requirements (continued)
The external bypass capacitor, used in conjunction with an internal resistor to form a low-pass filter, should be
a low ESR ceramic capacitor. For example, the TPS79030 exhibits only 56 µVRMS of output voltage noise using
a 0.01 µF ceramic bypass capacitor and a10 µF ceramic output capacitors. Note that the output will start up
slower as the bypass capacitance increases due to the RC time constant at the bypass pin that is created by
the internal 150 kΩ resistor and external capacitor.
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. To 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:
P
D(max)
* TA
+ TJmax
R
qJA
Where:
TJmax is the maximum allowable junction temperature.
RθJA is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for the package, see the dissipation rating table.
TA is the ambient temperature.
ǒ
Ǔ
The regulator dissipation is calculated using:
P
D
+ VI * VO
I
O
Power dissipation resulting from quiescent current is negligible. Excessive power dissipation will trigger the
thermal protection circuit.
regulator protection
The TPS790xx PMOS-pass transistor has a built-in back diode that conducts reverse current 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. If extended reverse voltage operation is anticipated, external limiting might
be appropriate.
The TPS790xx features internal current limiting and thermal protection. During normal operation, the TPS790xx
limits output current to approximately 350 mA. 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 approximately 165°C, thermal-protection circuitry shuts it down. Once the device has cooled down to
below approximately 140°C, regulator operation resumes.
