description
The TPS779xx is a low dropout regulator with
integrated power-on reset. The device is capable
of supplying 250 mA of output current with a
dropout of 200 mV (TPS77930). Quiescent
current is 92 µA at full load dropping down to 1 µA
when the device is disabled. The device is
optimized to be stable with a wide range of output
capacitors including low ESR ceramic (10 µF) or
low capacitance (1 µF) tantalum capacitors. The
device has extremely low noise output performance (55 µVrms) without using any added filter
capacitors. TPS779xx is designed to have a fast
transient response for larger load current
changes.

The TPS779xx is offered in 1.8-V, 2.5-V, and 3-V fixed-voltage versions and in an adjustable version
(programmable over the range of 1.5 V to 5.5 V). Output voltage tolerance is 2% over line, load, and temperature
ranges. The TPS779xx family is available in 8-pin MSOP (DGK) packages.
Because the PMOS device behaves as a low-value resistor, the dropout voltage is very low (typically 200 mV
at an output current of 250 mA for 3.3 volt option) and is directly proportional to the output current. Additionally,
since the PMOS pass element is a voltage-driven device, the quiescent current is very low and independent
of output loading (typically 92 µA over the full range of output current, 0 mA to 250 mA). These two key
specifications yield a significant improvement in operating life for battery-powered systems.
Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of

250-mA LDO REGULATOR WITH INTEGRATED RESET IN A MSOP8 PACKAGE
SLVS283A – MARCH 2000 – REVISED MARCH 2000
description (continued)
The device is enabled when the EN pin is connected to a high-level input voltage. This LDO family also features
a sleep mode; applying a TTL low signal to EN (enable) shuts down the regulator, reducing the quiescent current
to less than 1 µA at TJ = 25°C.
The TPS779xx features an integrated power-on reset, commonly used as a supply voltage supervisor (SVS),
or reset output voltage. The RESET output of the TPS779xx initiates a reset in DSP, microcomputer or
microprocessor systems at power-up and in the event of an undervoltage condition. An internal comparator in
the TPS779xx monitors the output voltage of the regulator to detect an undervoltage condition on the regulated
output voltage. When OUT reaches 95% of its regulated voltage, RESET will go to a high-impedance state after
a 220 ms delay. RESET will go to low-impedance state when OUT is pulled below 95% (i.e. over load condition)
of its regulated voltage.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
pin functions
enable (EN)
The EN terminal is an input which enables or shuts down the device. If EN is a logic low, the device will be in
shutdown mode. When EN goes to logic high, then the device will be enabled.
sense (SENSE)
The SENSE terminal of the fixed-output options must be connected to the regulator output, and the connection
should be as short as possible. Internally, SENSE connects to a high-impedance wide-bandwidth amplifier
through a resistor-divider network and noise pickup feeds through to the regulator output. It is essential to route
the SENSE connection in such a way to minimize/avoid noise pickup. Adding RC networks between the SENSE
terminal and VO to filter noise is not recommended because it can cause the regulator to oscillate.
feedback (FB)
FB is an input terminal used for the adjustable-output options and must be connected to an external feedback
resistor divider. The FB connection should be as short as possible. It is essential to route it in such a way to
minimize/avoid noise pickup. Adding RC networks between FB terminal and VO to filter noise is not
recommended because it can cause the regulator to oscillate.
reset (RESET)
The RESET terminal is an open drain, active low output that indicates the status of VO. When VO reaches 95%
of the regulated voltage, RESET will go to a low-impedance state after a 220-ms delay. RESET will go to a
high-impedance state when Vout is below 95% of the regulated voltage. The open-drain output of the RESET
terminal requires a pullup resistor.
external capacitor requirements
An input capacitor is not usually required; however, a bypass capacitor (0.047 µF or larger) improves load
transient response and noise rejection if the TPS779xx is located more than a few inches from the power supply.
A higher-capacitance capacitor may be necessary if large (hundreds of milliamps) load transients with fast rise
times are anticipated.
Most low noise LDOs require an external capacitor to further reduce noise. This will impact the cost and board
space. The TPS779xx has a very low noise specification requirement without using any external component.
Like all low dropout regulators, the TPS779xx requires an output capacitor connected between OUT (output
of the LDO) and GND (signal ground) to stabilize the internal control loop. The minimum recommended
capacitance value is 1 µF provided the ESR meets the requirement in Figures 19 and 21. In addition, a low-ESR
capacitor can be used if the capacitance is at least 10 µF and the ESR meets the requirements in Figures 18
and 20. Solid tantalum electrolytic, aluminum electrolytic, and multilayer ceramic capacitors are all suitable,
provided they meet the requirements described previously.
Ceramic capacitors have different types of dielectric material with each exhibiting different temperature and
voltage variation. The most common types are X5R, X7R, Y5U, Z5U, and NPO. The NPO type ceramic type
capacitors are generally the most stable over temperature. However, the X5R and X7R are also relatively stable
over temperature (with the X7R being the more stable of the two) and are therefore acceptable to use. The Y5U
and Z5U types provide high capacitance in a small geometry, but exhibit large variations over temperature;
therefore, the Y5U and Z5U are not generally recommended for use on this LDO. Independent of which type
of capacitor is used, one must make certain that at the worst case condition the capacitance/ESR meets the
requirement specified in Figures 18 – 21.

Figure 22. – LDO Output Stage With Parasitic Resistances ESR and ESL
In steady state (dc state condition), the load current is supplied by the LDO (solid arrow) and the voltage across
the capacitor is the same as the output voltage (V(CO) = VO). This means no current is flowing into the CO
branch. If IO suddenly increases (transient condition), the following occurs;
The LDO is not able to supply the sudden current need due to its response time (t1 in Figure 23). Therefore,
capacitor CO provides the current for the new load condition (dashed arrow). CO now acts like a battery with
an internal resistance, ESR. Depending on the current demand at the output, a voltage drop will occur at RESR.
This voltage is shown as VESR in Figure 22.
When CO is conducting current to the load, initial voltage at the load will be VO = V(CO) – VESR. Due to the
discharge of CO, the output voltage VO will drop continuously until the response time t1 of the LDO is reached
and the LDO will resume supplying the load. From this point, the output voltage starts rising again until it reaches
the regulated voltage. This period is shown as t2 in Figure 23.
The figure also shows the impact of different ESRs on the output voltage. The left brackets show different levels
of ESRs where number 1 displays the lowest and number 3 displays the highest ESR.
From above, the following conclusions can be drawn:
D
D
The higher the ESR, the larger the droop at the beginning of load transient.
The smaller the output capacitor, the faster the discharge time and the bigger the voltage droop during the
LDO response period.

Where:

Resistors R1 and R2 should be chosen for approximately 7-µA divider current. Lower value resistors can be
used but offer no inherent advantage and waste more power. Higher values should be avoided as leakage
currents at FB increase the output voltage error. The recommended design procedure is to choose
R2 = 30.1 kΩ to set the divider current at 7 µA and then calculate R1 using:

regulator protection
The TPS779xx PMOS-pass transistor has a built-in back diode that conducts reverse currents when the input
voltage drops below the output voltage (e.g., during power down). Current is conducted from the output to the
input and is not internally limited. When extended reverse voltage is anticipated, external limiting may be
appropriate.
The TPS779xx also features internal current limiting and thermal protection. During normal operation, the
TPS779xx limits output current to approximately 0.9 A. When current limiting engages, the output voltage scales
back linearly until the overcurrent condition ends. While current limiting is designed to prevent gross device
failure, care should be taken not to exceed the power dissipation ratings of the package. If the temperature of
the device exceeds 150°C(typ), thermal-protection circuitry shuts it down. Once the device has cooled below
130°C(typ), regulator operation resumes.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
power dissipation and junction temperature
Specified regulator operation is assured to a junction temperature of 125°C; the maximum junction temperature
should be restricted to 125°C under normal operating conditions. This restriction limits the power dissipation
the regulator can handle in any given application. To ensure the junction temperature is within acceptable limits,
calculate the maximum allowable dissipation, PD(max), and the actual dissipation, PD, which must be less than
or equal to PD(max).
The maximum-power-dissipation limit is determined using the following equation:
P
D(max)
* TA
+ TJmax

Where:
TJmax is the maximum allowable junction temperature
RθJA is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for the package, i.e., 266.2°C/W for the 8-terminal
MSOP with no airflow.
TA is the ambient temperature.

Power dissipation resulting from quiescent current is negligible. Excessive power dissipation will trigger the
