FEATURES
D Qualified for Automotive Applications
D ESD Protection Exceeds 2000 V Per
DESCRIPTION
The TPS791xx family of low-dropout (LDO)
low-power linear voltage regulators features high
power supply rejection ratio (PSRR), ultralow
noise, fast start-up, and excellent line and load
transient responses in a small outline, SOT23,
package. Each device in the family is stable with
a small 1-µF ceramic capacitor on the output.
MIL-STD-883, Method 3015; Exceeds 200 V

100-mA Low-Dropout Regulator With EN
Available in 1.8-V, 3.3-V, 4.7-V, and Adj.
High PSRR (70 dB at 10 kHz)
The family uses an advanced, proprietary
BiCMOS fabrication process to yield extremely
low dropout voltages (e.g., 38 mV at 100 mA,
TPS79147). Each device achieves fast start-up
times (approximately 63 µs with a 0.001 µF
bypass capacitor) while consuming very low
quiescent current (170 µA typical). Moreover,
when the device is placed in standby mode, the
supply current is reduced to less than 1 µA. The
TPS79118 exhibits approximately 15 µVRMS of
output voltage noise with a 0.1 µF bypass
capacitor.
Ultralow Noise (15 µVRMS)
Fast Start-Up Time (63 µs)
Stable With Any 1-µF Ceramic Capacitor
Excellent Load/Line Transient
Very Low Dropout Voltage
(38 mV at Full Load, TPS79147)
D 5-Pin SOT23 (DBV) Package
D TPS792xx Provides EN Options
APPLICATIONS
D VCOs
D RF
D Bluetooth, Wireless LAN
Applications with analog components that are
noise sensitive, such as portable RF electronics,
benefit from the high PSRR and low noise
features as well as the fast response time.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The TPS791xx family of low-dropout (LDO) regulators have been optimized for use in noise-sensitive
battery-operated equipment. The device features extremely low dropout voltages, high PSRR, ultralow output
noise, low quiescent current (170 µA typically), and enable-input to reduce supply currents to less than 1 µA
when the regulator is turned off.
A typical application circuit is shown in Figure 32.

EXTERNAL CAPACITOR REQUIREMENTS
A 0.1-µF or larger ceramic input bypass capacitor, connected between IN and GND and located close to the
TPS791xx, is required for stability and to improve transient response, noise rejection, and ripple 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 TPS791xx requires an output capacitor connected between OUT and GND
to stabilize the internal control loop. The minimum recommended capacitance is 1 µF. Any 1 µF or larger ceramic
capacitor is suitable. The device is also stable with a 0.47 µF ceramic capacitor with at least 75 mΩ of ESR.
The internal voltage reference is a key source of noise in an LDO regulator. The TPS791xx has a BYPASS pin
which is connected to the voltage reference through a 250-kΩ internal resistor. The 250-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. In order for the regulator
to operate properly, the current flow out of the BYPASS pin must be at a minimum because any leakage current
creates an IR drop across the internal resistor thus creating an output error. Therefore, the bypass capacitor
must have minimal leakage current.
For example, the TPS79118 exhibits approximately 15 µVRMS of output voltage noise using a 0.1 µF ceramic
bypass capacitor and a 1 µF ceramic output capacitor. Note that the output starts up slower as the bypass
capacitance increases due to the RC time constant at the bypass pin that is created by the internal 250 kΩ
resistor and external capacitor.
BOARD LAYOUT RECOMMENDATION TO
IMPROVE PSRR AND NOISE
PERFORMANCE
To improve ac measurements like PSRR, output noise, and transient response, it is recommended that the
board be designed with separate ground planes for VIN and VOUT, with each ground plane connected only at
the ground pin of the device. In addition, the ground connection for the bypass capacitor should connect directly
to the ground pin of the device.

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
T max * T
A
+ J
D(max)
R
qJA
(1)
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.
The regulator dissipation is calculated using:

Power dissipation resulting from quiescent current is negligible. Excessive power dissipation triggers the
thermal protection circuit.
PROGRAMMING THE TPS79101 ADJUSTABLE LDO REGULATOR
The output voltage of the TPS79101 adjustable regulator is programmed using an external resistor divider as
shown in Figure 33. The output voltage is calculated using:
V
O
+V
ǒ1 ) R1
Ǔ
R2
ref
(3)
Where:
Vref = 1.2246 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 for improved noise performance, but the solution consumes more power. Higher resistor values should
be avoided as leakage current into/out of FB across R1/R2 creates an offset voltage that artificially
increases/decreases the feedback voltage and thus erroneously decreases/increases VO. The recommended
design procedure is to choose R2 = 30.1 kΩ to set the divider current at 50 µA, C1 = 15 pF for stability, and
then calculate R1 using:
R1 +

In order to improve the stability of the adjustable version, it is suggested that a small compensation capacitor
be placed between OUT and FB. For voltages 1.8 V, the approximate value of this capacitor can be calculated as:
C1 +

(5)
The suggested value of this capacitor for several resistor ratios is shown in the table below. If this capacitor is
not used (such as in a unity-gain configuration) or if an output voltage < 1.8 V is chosen, then the minimum
recommended output capacitor is 2.2 µF instead of 1 µF.

REGULATOR PROTECTION
The TPS791xx 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 TPS791xx features internal current limiting and thermal protection. During normal operation, the TPS791xx
limits output current to approximately 400 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 or the absolute maximum
voltage ratings of the device. 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.
