3 Description

The TPS7A53A-Q1 is a low-noise (5.6 μVRMS), lowdropout

linear regulator (LDO) capable of sourcing

3 A with only 130 mV of dropout.

The combination of low noise (5.6 μVRMS), high

PSRR, and high output current capability makes the

TPS7A53A-Q1 designed for powering noise-sensitive

components, such as those found in radar power

and infotainment applications. The high performance

of this device limits power-supply-generated phase

noise and clock jitter, making this device useful for

powering RF amplifiers, radar sensors, and chipsets.

Specifically, signal chain components benefit from the

high-performance of the device. The TPS7A53A-Q1

is available with a wettable flanks option to facilitate

optical inspection.

For digital loads [such as application-specific

integrated circuits (ASICs), field-programmable gate

arrays (FPGAs), and digital signal processors (DSPs)]

that require low-input, low-output (LILO) voltage

operation, the exceptional accuracy (1.3 over load

and temperature), remote sensing, excellent transient

performance, and soft-start capabilities of the

TPS7A53A-Q1 provide optimal system performance.

The versatility of the TPS7A53A-Q1 makes the

device a component of choice for many demanding

applications.
