2.3.3 TPS7A16

The TPS7A16 family of ultra-low power, low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulators offers the benefits of ultra-low quiescent current, high input voltage and miniaturized, high thermal-performance packaging.

The TPS7A16 family is designed for continuous or sporadic (power backup) battery-powered applications where ultra-low quiescent current is critical to extending system battery life.

The TPS7A16 family offers an enable pin (EN) compatible with standard CMOS logic and an integrated open drain active-high power good output (PG) with a user-programmable delay. These pins are intended for use in microcontroller-based, battery-powered applications where power-rail sequencing is required.

In addition, the TPS7A16 is an excellent choice for generating a low-voltage supply from multicell designs ranging from high cell-count power-tool packs to automotive applications; not only can this device supply a well-regulated voltage rail, but the device can also withstand and maintain regulation during voltage transients. These features translate to simpler and more cost-effective, electrical surge-protection circuitry.
