The TPS740xx uses a bias input supply to allow very
low voltage of a main input supply. The main input
supply operates from 1.2 V to 6.0 V and the bias
input supply requires between 3.0 V to 6.0 V for
proper operation. The TPS740xx offers adjustable
output voltages down to 0.9 V.
VBIAS: 2.9 V to 6.0 V

capacitance. A small 2.2-μF ceramic capacitor is
enough for its stability.
Excellent Line and Load Regulation
Logic-Controlled Shutdown Option
The TPS740xx is available in an 8-pin power MSOP
package and
a 5-pin Jr S-PAK. Its operating
temparature range is –40°C to +125°C.
