DESCRIPTION
The TPS726xx family of 1-A low-dropout (LDO) linear
regulators has fixed voltage options available that are
commonly used to power the latest DSPs, FPGAs,
and microcontrollers. The integrated supervisory
circuitry provides an active low RESET signal when
the output falls out of regulation. The no
capacitor/any capacitor feature allows the customer
to tailor output transient performance as needed.
Therefore, compared to other regulators capable of
providing the same output current, this family of
regulators can provide a stand alone power supply
solution or a post regulator for a switch mode power
supply.
These regulators operate over a wide range of input
voltages (1.8 V to 6 V) and have very low dropout
(170 mV at 1-A). Ground current is typically 210 µA at
full load and drops to less than 80 µA at no load.
Standby current is less than 1 µA.
Unlike some regulators that have a minimum current
requirement, the TPS726xx family is stable with no
output load current. The low noise capability of this
family, coupled with its high current operation and
ease of power dissipation, make it ideal for telecom
boards, modem banks, and other noise sensitive
applications.
The TPS726xx is available in either a SOT223 or
DDPAK package. The TPS726126 is available in a
SOT223 package only.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The TPS726xx family of low-dropout (LDO) regulators have numerous features that make it apply to a wide
range of applications. The family operates with very low input voltage (≥1.8 V) and low dropout voltage (typically
200 mV at full load), making it an efficient stand-alone power supply or post regulator for battery or switch mode
power supplies. Both the active low RESET and 1-A output current, make the TPS726xx family ideal for
powering processor and FPGA supplies. The TPS726xx family also has low output noise (typically 150 µVRMS
with 10-µF output capacitor), making it ideal for use in telecom equipment.
External Capacitor Requirements
A 1-µF or larger ceramic input bypass capacitor, connected between IN and GND and located close to the
TPS726xx, is required for stability. To improve transient response, noise rejection, and ripple rejection, an
additional 10-µF or larger, low ESR capacitor is recommended. A higher-value, low ESR 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, especially if the minimum input voltage of 1.8 V is used.
Although an output capacitor is not required for stability, transient response and output noise are improved with a
10-µF output capacitor.

Regulator Protection
The TPS726xx pass element has a built-in back diode that safely 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 is anticipated, external limiting might be
appropriate.
The TPS726xx also features internal current limiting and thermal protection. During normal operation, the
TPS726xx limits output current to approximately 1.6 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 165°C, thermal-protection circuitry shuts it down. Once the device has cooled down to below
145°C, regulator operation resumes.
THERMAL INFORMATION
The amount of heat that an LDO linear regulator generates is directly proportional to the amount of power it
dissipates during operation. All integrated circuits have a maximum allowable junction temperature (TJmax)
above which normal operation is not assured. A system designer must design the operating environment so that
the operating junction temperature (TJ) does not exceed the maximum junction temperature (TJmax). The two
main environmental variables that a designer can use to improve thermal performance are air flow and external
heatsinks. The purpose of this information is to aid the designer in determining the proper operating environment
for a linear regulator that is operating at a specific power level.

In general, the maximum expected power (PD(max)) consumed by a linear regulator is computed as:
ǒ
P max + V
*V
D
I(avg)
O(avg)
Ǔ
I
) V
O(avg)
I(avg)
xI
(Q)
(1)
Where:
• VI(avg) is the average input voltage.
• VO(avg) is the average output voltage.
• O(avg) is the average output current.
• I(Q) is the quiescent current.
For most TI LDO regulators, the quiescent current is insignificant compared to the average output current;
therefore, the term VI(avg) x I(Q) can be neglected. The operating junction temperature is computed by adding the
ambient temperature (TA) and the increase in temperature due to the regulator's power dissipation. The
temperature rise is computed by multiplying the maximum expected power dissipation by the sum of the thermal
resistances between the junction and the case ®qJC), the case to heatsink ®qCS), and the heatsink to ambient
®qSA). Thermal resistances are measures of how effectively an object dissipates heat. Typically, the larger the
device, the more surface area available for power dissipation and the lower the object's thermal resistance.
Figure 19 illustrates these thermal resistances for (a) a SOT223 package mounted in a JEDEC low-K board, and
(b) a DDPAK package mounted on a JEDEC high-K board.

The RqJC is specific to each regulator as determined by its package, lead frame, and die size provided in the
regulator's data sheet. The RqSA is a function of the type and size of heatsink. For example, black body radiator
type heatsinks can have RqCS values ranging from 5°C/W for very large heatsinks to 50°C/W for very small
heatsinks. The RqCS is a function of how the package is attached to the heatsink. For example, if a thermal
compound is used to attach a heatsink to a SOT223 package, RqCSof 1°C/W is reasonable.
Even if no external black body radiator type heatsink is attached to the package, the board on which the
regulator is mounted provides some heatsinking through the pin solder connections. Some packages, like the
DDPAK and SOT223 packages, use a copper plane underneath the package or the circuit board's ground plane
for additional heatsinking to improve their thermal performance. Computer-aided thermal modeling can be used
to compute very accurate approximations of an integrated circuit's thermal performance in different operating
environments (e.g., different types of circuit boards, different types and sizes of heatsinks, and different air flows,
etc.). Using these models, the three thermal resistances can be combined into one thermal resistance between
junction and ambient ®qJA). This RqJAis valid only for the specific operating environment used in the computer
model.

Using Equation 3 and the computer model generated curves shown in Figure 20 and Figure 23, a designer can
quickly compute the required heatsink thermal resistance/board area for a given ambient temperature, power
dissipation, and operating environment.
DDPAK Power Dissipation
The DDPAK package provides an effective means of managing power dissipation in surface mount applications.
The DDPAK package dimensions are provided in the Mechanical Data section at the end of the data sheet. The
addition of a copper plane directly underneath the DDPAK package enhances the thermal performance of the
package.
To illustrate, the TPS72625 in a DDPAK package was chosen. For this example, the average input voltage is 5
V, the output voltage is 2.5 V, the average output current is 1 A, the ambient temperature 55°C, the air flow is
150 LFM, and the operating environment is the same as documented below. Neglecting the quiescent current,
the maximum average power is:
P Dmax + (5 * 2.5) V x 1 A + 2.5 W

Substituting TJmax for TJ into Equation 4 gives Equation 6:

From Figure 20, DDPAK Thermal Resistance vs Copper Heatsink Area, the ground plane needs to be 1 cm for
the part to dissipate 2.5 W. The operating environment used in the computer model to construct Figure 20
consisted of a standard JEDEC High-K board (2S2P) with a 1 oz. internal copper plane and ground plane. The
package is soldered to a 2 oz. copper pad. The pad is tied through thermal vias to the 1 oz. ground plane.
Figure 21 shows the side view of the operating environment used in the computer model.
