3 Description

The TPS769-Q1 is a low-dropout (LDO) linear voltage

regulator. This device supports an input voltage range

from 2.5V to 16V (new chip) and up to 100mA of load

current. For the new chip, the supported output range

is from 1.2V to 5.0V (fixed version) or from 1.2V to

5.5V (adjustable version).

The wide input voltage range makes the device a

good choice for operating from regulated rails (such

as 10V or 12V). The voltage range is up to 16V for

the new chip. This range allows the LDO to generate

the bias voltage for a variety of applications. These

applications include power microcontrollers (MCUs)

and processors, as well as silicon carbide (SiC) gate

drivers and microphones.

Wide bandwidth PSRR performance is greater than

70dB at 1kHz and 46dB at 1MHz (new chip). This

performance helps attenuate the switching frequency

of an upstream DC/DC converter and minimizes post

regulator filtering. The new chip supports an internal

soft-start circuit mechanism that reduces inrush

current during start-up, thus allowing for smaller input

capacitance.
