TI TPS73701DRVT

The TPS737xx series low-dropout (LDO) regulators use an NMOS pass element in a voltage-follower configuration. This topology is relatively insensitive to output capacitor value and equivalent series resistance (ESR), enabling a wide range of load configurations. Excellent load transient response is achieved even with a small 1μF ceramic output capacitor. The NMOS topology also enables ultra-low dropout voltage. The TPS737xx series leverages an advanced BiCMOS process to achieve high accuracy while delivering ultra-low dropout voltage and low ground pin current. Shutdown current consumption of less than 20nA makes these devices well-suited for portable applications. The devices are protected by thermal shutdown and foldback current limiting.
