PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPS51206 device is a sink or source tracking termination regulator specifically designed for low input voltage, low cost, and low external component count systems where space is a key application parameter. The device integrates a high-performance, low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator (VTT) that has ultimate fast response to track ½ VDDQSNS within 40 mV at all conditions, and its current capability is 2 A for both sink and source directions. A 10-µF (or greater) ceramic capacitor(s) need to be attached close to the VTT terminal for stable operation. A grade of X5R or better is recommended. To achieve tight regulation with minimum effect of trace resistance, the remote sensing terminal, VTTSNS, should be connected to the positive terminal of the output capacitor(s) as a separate trace from the high current path from the VTT pin.
The device has a dedicated pin, VLDOIN, for VTT power supply to minimize the LDO power dissipation on user application. The minimum VLDOIN voltage is 0.4 V above the ½ VDDQSNS voltage.
