JAJSDB7B June 2017 – October 2021 TPS7A83A
PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS7A83A is designed for system applications where minimizing noise on the power-supply rail is critical to system performance. For example, the TPS7A83A can be used in a phase-locked loop (PLL)-based clocking circuit and can be used for minimum phase noise, or in test and measurement systems where even small power-supply noise fluctuations reduce system dynamic range.
LDO noise is defined as the internally-generated intrinsic noise created by the semiconductor circuits alone. This noise is the sum of various types of noise (such as shot noise associated with current-through-pin junctions, thermal noise caused by thermal agitation of charge carriers, flicker noise, or 1/f noise and dominates at lower frequencies as a function of 1/f). Figure 9-7 shows a simplified output voltage noise density plot versus frequency.
