3 Description
The TPS732-Q1 low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator
uses an NMOS topology consisting of an NMOS
pass transient in a voltage-follower configuration. This
topology is stable using output capacitors with low
ESR, and even allows operation without a capacitor.
The topology also provides high reverse blockage
(low reverse current) and ground pin current that is
nearly constant over all values of output current.
The TPS732-Q1 uses an advanced BiCMOS process
to yield high precision while delivering low dropout
voltages and low ground pin current. Current
consumption, when not enabled, is under 1μA and
designed for portable applications. The extremely low
output noise (30μVRMS with 0.1μF CNR) is designed
for powering VCOs. This device is protected by
thermal shutdown and foldback current limit.
