The TPS7B85-Q1 is a low-dropout linear regulator designed to connect to the battery in automotive applications. The device has an input voltage range extending to 40 V, which allows the device to withstand transients (such as load dump) that are anticipated in automotive systems. With only an 18-µA quiescent current, the device is an optimal solution for powering always-on components such as microcontrollers (MCUs) and controller area network (CAN) transceivers in standby systems.
The device has state-of-the-art transient response that allows the output to quickly react to changes in load or line (for example, during cold-crank conditions). Additionally, the device has a novel architecture that minimizes output overshoot when recovering from dropout. During normal operation, the device has a tight DC accuracy of ±0.75% over line, load, and temperature.
The TPS7B85-Q1 is equipped with power-good and integrated voltage monitoring. The power-good delay and voltage threshold can be adjusted by external components. The integrated voltage detector can be used to monitor the input voltage and alert downstream components (such as MCUs) when the battery voltage begins to fall.
The device is available in a small VSON package that facilitates a compact printed circuit board (PCB) design. The low thermal resistance enables sustained operation despite significant dissipation across the device.

PIN | TYPE(1) | DESCRIPTION | |
---|---|---|---|
NAME | DRC | ||
DELAY | 4 | O | Power-good delay adjustment pin. Connect a capacitor from this pin to GND to set the PG reset delay. Leave this pin floating for a default (t(DLY_FIX)) delay. See the Section 8.1.8 section for more information. If this functionality is not desired, leave this pin floating because connecting this pin to GND causes a perminant increase in the GND current. |
EN | 8 | I | Enable pin. The device is disabled when the enable pin becomes lower than the enable logic input low level (VIL). To ensure the device is enabled, the EN pin must be driven above the logic high level (VIH). This pin should not be left floating as this pin is high impedance if it is left floating the part may enable or disable. |
GND | 6 | G | Ground pin. Connect this pin to the thermal pad with a low-impedance connection. |
NC | 5 | — | No internal connection. Connect this pin to GND for the best thermal resistance. |
PGADJ | 2 | I | Power-good threshold-adjustment pin. Connect a resistor divider between the PGADJ and OUT pins to set the power-good threshold. Connect this pin to ground to set the threshold to VPG(TH,FALLING). See Section 8.1.8 for more information. |
PG | 7 | O | Power-good pin. This pin has an internal pullup resistor. Do not connect this pin to VOUT or any other biased voltage rail. VPG is logic level high when VOUT is above the power-good threshold. See Section 8.1.8 for more information. |
SI | 9 | I | Sense input pin. Connect via an external voltage divider to the supply voltage to be monitored. |
SO | 3 | O | Sense output pin. This pin has an internal pullup resistor. Do not connect this pin to VOUT or any other biased voltage rail. VSO is logic level low when VSI falls below the sense-low threshold. |
IN | 10 | P | Input power-supply voltage pin. For best transient response and to minimize input impedance, use the recommended value or larger ceramic capacitor from IN to ground as listed in the Recommended Operating Conditions table and the Section 8.2.2.1 section. Place the input capacitor as close to the input of the device as possible. |
OUT | 1 | O | Regulated output voltage pin. A capacitor is required from OUT to ground for stability. For best transient response, use the nominal recommended value or larger ceramic capacitor from OUT to ground; see the Recommended Operating Conditions table and the Section 8.2.2.2 section. Place the output capacitor as close to the output of the device as possible. If using a high ESR capacitor, decouple the output with a 100-nF ceramic capacitor. |
Thermal pad | — | Thermal pad. Connect the pad to GND for the best possible thermal performance. See the Section 10 section for more information. |
