3 Description
The TPS7A47-Q1 device is a positive voltage (35 V),
ultra-low-noise (4.2 µVRMS) low-dropout linear
regulator (LDO) capable of sourcing a 1-A load.
The TPS7A47-Q1 output voltage can be configured
with a user-programmable printed circuit board (PCB)
layout (up to 20.5 V), or adjustable (up to 34 V) with
external feedback resistors.
The TPS7A47-Q1 is designed with bipolar technology
primarily
for
high-accuracy,
high-precision
instrumentation applications where clean voltage rails
are critical to maximize system performance. This
feature makes the device ideal for powering
operational amplifiers, analog-to-digital converters
(ADCs), digital-to-analog converters (DACs), and
other high-performance analog circuitry.
In addition, the TPS7A47-Q1 is ideal for post dc-dc
converter regulation. By filtering out the output
voltage ripple inherent to dc-dc switching
conversions, maximum system performance is
ensured in sensitive instrumentation, audio, and RF
applications.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The TPS7A47-Q1 is a positive voltage (35 V), ultralow-noise (4.2 µVRMS) LDO capable of sourcing a 1-A load.
The TPS7A47-Q1 is designed with bipolar technology primarily for high-accuracy, high-precision instrumentation
applications where clean voltage rails are critical to maximize system performance. This feature makes the
device ideal for powering operational amplifiers, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), digital-to-analog converters
(DACs), and other high-performance analog circuitry.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Internal Current Limit (ICL)
The internal current limit circuit is used to protect the LDO against high-load current faults or shorting events. The
LDO is not designed to operate at a steady-state current limit. During a current-limit event, the LDO sources
constant current. Therefore, the output voltage falls when load impedance decreases. Also, when a current limit
occurs while the resulting output voltage is low, excessive power is dissipated across the LDO, which results in a
thermal shutdown of the output.
7.3.2 Enable (EN) And Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The TPS7A47-Q1 only turns on when both EN and UVLO are above the respective voltage thresholds. The
UVLO circuit monitors input voltage (VI) to prevent device turn-on before VI rises above the lockout voltage. The
UVLO circuit also causes a shutdown when VI falls below lockout. The EN signal allows independent logic-level
turn-on and shutdown of the LDO when the input voltage is present. EN can be connected directly to VI if
independent turn-on is not needed.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.3 Soft-Start And Inrush Current
Soft-start refers to the ramp-up characteristic of the output voltage during LDO turn-on after EN and UVLO have
achieved the threshold voltage. The noise-reduction capacitor serves a dual purpose of both governing output
noise reduction and programming the soft-start ramp during turn-on.
Inrush current is defined as the current through the LDO from IN to OUT during the time of the turn-on ramp up.
Inrush current then consists primarily of the sum of load and charge current to the output capacitor. Use
Equation 1 to estimate in-rush current:
VOUT(t)
COUT ´ dVOUT(t)
IOUT(t) =
+
RLOAD
dt
where:
•
•
•
VOUT(t) is the instantaneous output voltage of the turn-on ramp
dVOUT(t) / dt is the slope of the VO ramp
RLOAD is the resistive load impedance
(1)
7.4 Device Functional Modes
The TPS7A47-Q1 has the following functional modes:
1. Enabled: when EN goes above V+EN(HI), the device is enabled.
2. Disabled: when EN goes below V+EN(LO), the device is disabled. During this time, OUT is high impedance,
and the current into IN does not exceed I(SHDN).
7.5 Programming
7.5.1 ANY-OUT Programmable Output Voltage
For ANY-OUT operation, do not use external resistors to set the output voltage, but use device pins 4, 5, 6, 8, 9,
10, 11, and 12 to program the regulated output voltage. Each pin is either connected to ground (active) or is left
open (floating). The ANY-OUT programming is set by Equation 2 as the sum of the internal reference voltage
(V(REF) = 1.4 V) plus the accumulated sum of the respective voltages assigned to each active pin; that is, 100 mV
(pin 12), 200 mV (pin 11), 400 mV (pin 10), 800 mV (pin 9), 1.6 V (pin 8), 3.2 V (pin 6), 6.4 V (pin 5), or 6.4 V
(pin 4). Table 1 summarizes these voltage values associated with each active pin setting for reference. By
leaving all program pins open, or floating, the output is thereby programmed to the minimum possible output
voltage equal to V(REF).
VOUT = VREF + (S ANY-OUT Pins to Ground)

R1 and R2 can be calculated for any output voltage within the operational range. The current through feedback
resistor R2 must be at least 5 µA to ensure stability. Additionally, the current into the FB pin (I(FB), typically
350 nA) creates an additional output voltage offset that depends on the resistance of R1. For high-accuracy
applications, select R2 such that the current through R2 is at least 35 µA to minimize any effects of I(FB) variation
on the output voltage; 10 kΩ is recommended. Equation 3 calculates R1.

To achieve higher nominal accuracy, two resistors can be used in the place of R1. Select the two resistor values
such that the sum results in a value as close as possible to the calculated R1 value.
There are several alternative ways to set the output voltage. The program pins can be pulled low using external
general-purpose input/output pins (GPIOs), or can be hardwired by the given layout of the printed circuit board
(PCB) to set the ANY-OUT voltage. The TPS7A4701 evaluation module (EVM), available for purchase from the
TI eStore, allows the output voltage to be programmed using jumpers.

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The TPS7A47-Q1 is a high-voltage, low-noise, 1-A LDO. Low-noise performance makes this LDO ideal for
providing rail voltages to noise-sensitive loads, such as PLLs, oscillators, and high-speed ADCs.
8.2 Typical Application
As shown in Figure 24, output voltage is set by grounding the appropriate control pins. When grounded, all
control pins add a specific voltage on top of the internal reference voltage (V(REF) = 1.4 V). For example, when
grounding pins 0P1V, 0P2V, and 1P6V, the voltage values 0.1 V, 0.2 V, and 1.6 V are added to the 1.4-V
internal reference voltage for VO(nom) equal to 3.3 V, as described in the Programming section.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.2.1 Capacitor Recommendations
This LDO is designed to be stable using low equivalent series resistance (ESR), ceramic capacitors at the input,
output, and at the noise-reduction pin (NR, pin 14). Multilayer ceramic capacitors have become the industry
standard for these types of applications and are recommended here, but must be used with good judgment.
Ceramic capacitors that employ X7R-, X5R-, and COG-rated dielectric materials provide relatively good
capacitive stability across temperature, but the use of Y5V-rated capacitors is discouraged precisely because the
capacitance varies so widely. In all cases, ceramic capacitance varies a great deal with operating voltage and the
design engineer must be aware of these characteristics. TI recommends applying a 50% derating of the nominal
capacitance in the design.

Attention must be given to the input capacitance to minimize transient input droop during load current steps
because the TPS7A47-Q1 has a very fast load transient response. Large input capacitors are necessary for good
transient load response, and have no detrimental influence on the stability of the device. However, using large
ceramic input capacitances can also cause unwanted ringing at the output if the input capacitor, in combination
with the wire lead inductance, creates a high-Q peaking effect during transients. For example, a 5-nH lead
inductance and a 10-µF input capacitor form an LC filter with a resonance frequency of 712 kHz at the edge of
the control loop bandwidth. Short, well-designed interconnect leads to the up-stream supply minimize this effect
without adding damping. Damping of unwanted ringing can be accomplished by using a tantalum capacitor, with
a few hundred milliohms of ESR, in parallel with the ceramic input capacitor.
8.2.2.1.1 Input and Output Capacitor Requirements
The TPS7A47-Q1 is designed and characterized for operation with ceramic capacitors of 10 µF or greater at the
input and output. Optimal noise performance is characterized using a total output capacitor value of 50 µF. Input
and output capacitances must be located as near as practical to the respective input and output pins.
8.2.2.1.2 Noise-Reduction Capacitor (CNR)
The noise-reduction capacitor, connected to the NR pin of the LDO, forms an RC filter for filtering out noise that
might ordinarily be amplified by the control loop and appear on the output voltage. Larger capacitances, up to
1 µF, affect noise reduction at lower frequencies and also tend to further reduce noise at higher frequencies. CNR
also serves a secondary purpose in programming the turn-on rise time of the output voltage and thereby controls
the turn-on surge current.
8.2.2.2 Dropout Voltage (VDO)
Generally speaking, the dropout voltage often refers to the voltage difference between the input and output
voltage (V(DO) = VI – VO). However, in the Electrical Characteristics V(DO) is defined as the VI – VO voltage at the
rated current (I(RATED)), where the main current pass-FET is fully on in the Ohmic region of operation and is
characterized by the classic RDS(on) of the FET. V(DO) indirectly specifies a minimum input voltage above the
nominal programmed output voltage at which the output voltage is expected to remain within its accuracy
boundary. If the input falls below this V(DO) limit (VI < VO + V(DO)), then the output voltage decreases in order to
follow the input voltage.
Dropout voltage is always determined by the RDS(on) of the main pass-FET. Therefore, if the LDO operates below
the rated current, then V(DO) is directly proportional to the output current and can be reduced by the same factor.
Use Equation 4 to calculate RDS(on) for the TPS7A47-Q1:
VDO
RDS(ON) =
IRATED
(4)
8.2.2.3 Output Voltage Accuracy
The output voltage accuracy specifies minimum and maximum output voltage error, relative to the expected
nominal output voltage stated as a percent. This accuracy error typically includes the errors introduced by the
internal reference and the load and line regulation across the full range of rated load and line operating
conditions over temperature, unless otherwise specified by the Electrical Characteristics. Output voltage
accuracy also accounts for all variations between manufacturing lots.
8.2.2.4 Startup
The startup time for the TPS7A47-Q1 depends on the output voltage and the capacitance of the CNR capacitor.
Equation 5 calculates the startup time for a typical device.

8.2.2.5 AC Performance
AC performance of the LDO is typically understood to include power-supply rejection ratio, load step transient
response, and output noise. These metrics are primarily a function of open-loop gain and bandwidth, phase
margin, and reference noise.
8.2.2.5.1 Power-Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
PSRR is a measure of how well the LDO control loop rejects ripple noise from the input source to make the dc
output voltage as noise-free as possible across the frequency spectrum (usually 10 Hz to 10 MHz). Equation 6
gives the PSRR calculation as a function of frequency where input noise voltage [VS(IN)(f)] and output noise
voltage [VS(OUT)(f)] are understood to be purely ac signals.
VS(IN)(f)
PSRR (dB) = 20 Log10
VS(OUT)(f)
(6)
Noise that couples from the input to the internal reference voltage for the control loop is also a primary
contributor to reduced PSRR magnitude and bandwidth. This reference noise is greatly filtered by the noisereduction capacitor at the NR pin of the LDO in combination with an internal filter resistor (RSS) for optimal
PSRR.
The LDO is often employed not only as a dc/dc regulator, but also to provide exceptionally clean power-supply
voltages that are free of noise and ripple to power-sensitive system components. This usage is especially true for
the TPS7A47-Q1.
8.2.2.5.2 Load Step Transient Response
The load step transient response is the output voltage response by the LDO to a step change in load current
whereby output voltage regulation is maintained. The worst-case response is characterized for a load step of
10 mA to 1 A (at 1 A per microsecond) and shows a classic, critically-damped response of a very stable system.
The voltage response shows a small dip in the output voltage when charge is initially depleted from the output
capacitor and then the output recovers as the control loop adjusts itself. The depth of the charge depletion
immediately after the load step is directly proportional to the amount of output capacitance. However, to some
extent, the speed of recovery is inversely proportional to that same output capacitance. In other words, larger
output capacitances act to decrease any voltage dip or peak occurring during a load step but also decrease the
control-loop bandwidth, thereby slowing response.
The worst-case, off-loading step characterization occurs when the current step transitions from 1 A to 0 mA.
Initially, the LDO loop cannot respond fast enough to prevent a small increase in output voltage charge on the
output capacitor. Because the LDO cannot sink charge current, the control loop must turn off the main pass-FET
to wait for the charge to deplete, thus giving the off-load step its typical monotonic decay (which appears
triangular in shape).
8.2.2.5.3 Noise
The TPS7A47-Q1 is designed, in particular, for system applications where minimizing noise on the power-supply
rail is critical to system performance. This scenario is the case for phase-locked loop (PLL)-based clocking
circuits for instance, where minimum phase noise is all important, or in-test and measurement systems where
even small power-supply noise fluctuations can distort instantaneous measurement accuracy. Because the
TPS7A47-Q1 is also designed for higher voltage industrial applications, the noise characteristic is well designed
to minimize any increase as a function of the output voltage.
LDO noise is defined as the internally-generated intrinsic noise created by the semiconductor circuits alone. This
noise is the sum of various types of noise (such as shot noise associated with current-through-pin junctions,
thermal noise caused by thermal agitation of charge carriers, flicker or 1/f noise that is a property of resistors and
dominates at lower frequencies as a function of 1/f, burst noise, and avalanche noise).
To calculate the LDO RMS output noise, a spectrum analyzer must first measure the spectral noise across the
bandwidth of choice (typically 10 Hz to 100 kHz in units of µV/√Hz). The RMS noise is then calculated in the
usual manner as the integrated square root of the squared spectral noise over the band, then averaged by the
bandwidth.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The device is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range of 3 V to 35 V. If the input supply is noisy,
additional input capacitors with low ESR can help improve the output noise performance.
9.1 Power Dissipation (PD)
Power dissipation must be considered in the PCB design. In order to minimize risk of device operation above
145°C, use as much copper area as available for thermal dissipation. Do not locate other power-dissipating
devices near the LDO.
Power dissipation in the regulator depends on the input to output voltage difference and load conditions.
Equation 7 calculates PD:
PD = (VOUT - VIN) ´ IOUT
(7)
Power dissipation can be minimized, and thus greater efficiency achieved, by proper selection of the system
voltage rails. Proper selection allows the minimum input voltage necessary for output regulation to be obtained.
The primary heat conduction path for the VQFN (RGW) package is through the PowerPAD to the PCB. The
PowerPAD must be soldered to a copper pad area under the device. Thermal vias are recommended to improve
the thermal conduction to other layers of the PCB.
The maximum power dissipation determines the maximum allowable junction temperature (TJ) for the device.
According to Equation 8, power dissipation and junction temperature are most often related by the junction-toambient thermal resistance (θJA) of the combined PCB and device package and the temperature of the ambient
air (TA).

Unfortunately, this thermal resistance (θJA) depends primarily on the heat-spreading capability built into the
particular PCB design, and therefore varies according to the total copper area, copper weight, and location of the
spreading planes. The θJA recorded in the Thermal Information table is determined by the JEDEC standard, PCB,
and copper-spreading area and is to be used only as a relative measure of package thermal performance. For a
well-designed thermal layout, θJA is actually the sum of the VQFN package junction-to-case (bottom) thermal
resistance (θJCbot) plus the thermal resistance contribution by the PCB copper. By knowing θJCbot, the minimum
amount of appropriate heat sinking can be used with Figure 27 to estimate θJA. θJCbot can be found in the
Thermal Information table.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
For best overall performance, all circuit components are recommended to be located on the same side of the
circuit board and as near as practical to the respective LDO pin connections. Ground return connections to the
input and output capacitor, and to the LDO ground pin, must also be as close to each other as possible and
connected by a wide, component-side, copper surface. The use of vias and long traces to create LDO circuit
connections is strongly discouraged and negatively affects system performance. This grounding and layout
scheme minimizes inductive parasitics and thereby reduces load-current transients, minimizes noise, and
increases circuit stability.
A ground reference plane is also recommended. This reference plane serves to assure accuracy of the output
voltage, shield noise, and behaves similar to a thermal plane to spread (or sink) heat from the LDO device when
connected to the PowerPAD. In most applications, this ground plane is necessary to meet thermal requirements.
Use the TPS7A4701 evaluation module (EVM), available for purchase from the TI eStore, as a reference for
layout and application design.

10.3 Thermal Protection
The TPS7A47-Q1 contains a thermal shutdown protection circuit to turn off the output current when excessive
heat is dissipated in the LDO. Thermal shutdown occurs when the thermal junction temperature (TJ) of the main
pass-FET exceeds 170°C (typical). Thermal shutdown hysteresis assures that the LDO again resets (turns on)
when the temperature falls to 145°C (typical). Because the TPS7A47-Q1 is capable of supporting high input
voltages, a great deal of power can be expected to be dissipated across the device at low output voltages, which
causes a thermal shutdown. The thermal time-constant of the semiconductor die is fairly short, and thus the
output oscillates on and off at a high rate when thermal shutdown is reached until power dissipation is reduced.
For reliable operation, the junction temperature must be limited to a maximum of 145°C. To estimate the thermal
margin in a given layout, increase the ambient temperature until the thermal protection shutdown is triggered
using worst-case load and highest input voltage conditions. For good reliability, thermal shutdown must be
designed to occur at least 45°C above the maximum expected ambient temperature condition for the application.
This configuration produces a worst-case junction temperature of 145°C at the highest expected ambient
temperature and worst-case load.
The internal protection circuitry of the TPS7A47-Q1 is designed to protect against thermal overload conditions.
The circuitry is not intended to replace proper heat sinking. Continuously running the TPS7A47-Q1 into thermal
shutdown degrades device reliability.
10.4 Estimating Junction Temperature
JEDEC standards recommend the use of PSI thermal metrics to estimate the junction temperatures of the LDO
when in-circuit on a typical PCB board application. These metrics are not strictly speaking thermal resistances,
but rather offer practical and relative means of estimating junction temperatures. These PSI metrics are
determined to be significantly independent of copper-spreading area. The key thermal metrics (ΨJT and ΨJB) are
given in the Thermal Information table and are used in accordance with Equation 9.
YJT: TJ = TT + YJT ´ PD
YJB: TJ = TB + YJB ´ PD
where:

•
PD is the power dissipated as explained in Equation 7
TT is the temperature at the center-top of the device package
TB is the PCB surface temperature measured 1 mm from the device package and centered on the package
edge
