microprocessor-compatible input. This LDO is
designed specifically for battery-powered applications
where dual-level voltages are needed. With ultralow
IQ (1µA), microprocessors, memory cards, and smoke
detectors are ideal applications for this device.

The ultralow-power and selectable dual-level output
voltages allow designers to customize power
consumption for specific applications. Designers can
now shift to a lower voltage level in a battery-powered
design when the microprocessor is in sleep mode,
further reducing overall system power consumption.
The two voltage levels are preset at the factory
through a unique architecture using an EPROM. The
EPROM technique allows for numerous output
voltage options between VSET low (1.5V to 4.2V) and
VSET high (2.0V to 3.0V) in the fixed output version
only. Consult with your local factory representative for
exact voltage options and ordering information;
minimum order quantities may apply.

The TPS781 series are designed to be compatible
with the TI MSP430 and other similar products. The
enable pin is compatible with standard CMOS logic.
This LDO is stable with any output capacitor greater
than 1.0µF. Therefore, implementations of this device
require minimal board space because of miniaturized
packaging and a potentially small output capacitor.
The TPS781 series IQ (1µA) also come with thermal
shutdown and current limit to protect the device
during fault conditions. All packages have an
operating temperature range of TJ = –40°C to
+125°C. For high-performance applications requiring
a dual-level voltage option, consider the TPS780
series, with an IQ of 500nA and dynamic voltage
scaling.

DESCRIPTION
The TPS781 family of low-dropout (LDO) regulators
offer the benefits of ultralow power (IQ = 1µA),
miniaturized packaging (2×2 SON-6), and selectable
dual-level output voltage levels. An adjustable version
is also available, but does not have the capability to
shift voltage levels.
