DESCRIPTION
•
1.5-A Low-Dropout Regulator With Enable
The TPS786xx family of low-dropout (LDO)
low-power linear voltage regulators features high
power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR), ultralow noise,
fast start-up, and excellent line and load transient
responses in small outline, SOT223-6 and DDPAK-5
packages. Each device in the family is stable, with a
small 1-µF ceramic capacitor on the output. The
family uses an advanced, proprietary BiCMOS
fabrication process to yield extremely low dropout
voltages (for example, 390 mV at 1.5 A). Each
device achieves fast start-up times (approximately 50

a 0.001 µF bypass capacitor) while
consuming very low quiescent current (265 µA,
typical). Moreover, when the device is placed in
standby mode, the supply current is reduced to less
than 1 µA. The TPS78630 exhibits approximately 48
µVRMS of output voltage at 3.0 V output noise with a
0.1 µF bypass capacitor. Applications with analog
components that are noise sensitive, such as
portable RF electronics, benefit from the high PSRR,
low noise features, and the fast response time.
