SBVS034J – SEPTEMBER 2003 – REVISED MAY 2007
The TPS731xx family of low-dropout (LDO) linear
voltage regulators uses a new topology: an NMOS
pass element in a voltage-follower configuration. This
topology is stable using output capacitors with low
ESR, and even allows operation without a capacitor.
It also provides high reverse blockage (low reverse
current) and ground pin current that is nearly
constant over all values of output current.
The TPS731xx uses an advanced BiCMOS process
to yield high precision while delivering very low
dropout voltages and low ground pin current. Current
consumption, when not enabled, is under 1 µ A and
ideal for portable applications. The extremely low
output noise (30 µ V
powering VCOs. These devices are protected by
thermal shutdown and foldback current limit.
RMS
with 0.1 µ F C
) is ideal for

APPLICATIONS
• Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment
• Post-Regulation for Switching Supplies
• Noise-Sensitive Circuitry such as VCOs
• Point of Load Regulation for DSPs, FPGAs,
ASICs, and Microprocessors

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.

mode. Refer to the Shutdown section under Applications Information for more details. EN can be connected to
IN if not used.
NR 4 Fixed voltage versions only—connecting an external capacitor to this pin bypasses noise generated by the
internal bandgap, reducing output noise to very low levels.
FB 4 Adjustable voltage version only—this is the input to the control loop error amplifier, and is used to set the
output voltage of the device.
OUT 5 Output of the regulator. There are no output capacitor requirements for stability.

INPUT AND OUTPUT CAPACITOR
REQUIREMENTS
Although an input capacitor is not required for
stability, it is good analog design practice to connect
a 0.1µF to 1µF low ESR capacitor across the input
supply near the regulator. This counteracts reactive
input sources and improves transient response,
noise rejection, and ripple rejection. A higher-value
capacitor may be necessary if large, fast rise-time
load transients are anticipated or the device is
located several inches from the power source.
The TPS731xx does not require an output capacitor
for stability and has maximum phase margin with no
capacitor. It is designed to be stable for all available
types and values of capacitors. In applications where

REVERSE CURRENT
The NMOS pass element of the TPS731xx provides
inherent protection against current flow from the
output of the regulator to the input when the gate of
the pass device is pulled low. To ensure that all
charge is removed from the gate of the pass
element, the enable pin must be driven low before
the input voltage is removed. If this is not done, the
pass element may be left on due to stored charge on
the gate.
After the enable pin is driven low, no bias voltage is
needed on any pin for reverse current blocking. Note
that reverse current is specified as the current
flowing out of the IN pin due to voltage applied on
the OUT pin. There will be additional current flowing
into the OUT pin due to the 80k Ω internal resistor
divider to ground (see Figure 1 and Figure 2 ).
For the TPS73101, reverse current may flow when
V
is more than 1.0V above V
FB
THERMAL PROTECTION
Thermal protection disables the output when the
junction temperature rises to approximately +160 ° C,
allowing the device to cool. When the junction
temperature cools to approximately +140 ° C, the
output circuitry is again enabled. Depending on
power dissipation, thermal resistance, and ambient
temperature, the thermal protection circuit may cycle
on and off. This limits the dissipation of the regulator,
protecting it from damage due to overheating.
Any tendency to activate the thermal protection
circuit indicates excessive power dissipation or an
inadequate heatsink. For reliable operation, junction

.
IN
The ability to remove heat from the die is different for
each package type, presenting different
considerations in the PCB layout. The PCB area
around the device that is free of other components
moves the heat from the device to the ambient air.
Performance data for JEDEC low- and high-K boards
are shown in the Power Dissipation Ratings table.
Using heavier copper will increase the effectiveness
in removing heat from the device. The addition of
plated through-holes to heat-dissipating layers also
improves the heat-sink effectiveness.
Power dissipation depends on input voltage and load
conditions. Power dissipation (P

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, modifications, enhancements,
improvements, and other changes to its products and services at any time and to discontinue any product or service without notice.
Customers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All products are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its hardware products to the specifications applicable at the time of sale in accordance with TI’s
standard warranty. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this
warranty. Except where mandated by government requirements, testing of all parameters of each product is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or customer product design. Customers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with customer products and applications, customers should
provide adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any TI patent right, copyright, mask
work right, or other TI intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services
are used. Information published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license from TI to use such
products or services or a warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under
the patents or other intellectual property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is
accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an
unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties
may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business
practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would
reasonably be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement
specifically governing such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications
of their applications, and acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related
requirements concerning their products and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any
applications-related information or support that may be provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its
representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in such safety-critical applications.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are
specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military
specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is
solely at the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in
connection with such use.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products
are designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any
non-designated products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
