In automotive battery-connected applications, low quiescent current (IQ) is important to save power and extend battery lifetime. Ultra-low IQ must be included for always-on systems.
The TPS7B82-Q1 is a low-dropout linear regulator designed to operate with a wide input-voltage range from 3V to 40V (45V load dump protection). Operation down to 3V allows the TPS7B82-Q1 to continue operating during cold-crank and start and stop conditions. With only 2.7µA typical quiescent current at light load, this device is an excellent choice for powering microcontrollers (MCUs) and CAN or LIN transceivers in standby systems.
The device features integrated short-circuit and overcurrent protection. This device operates in ambient temperatures from –40°C to +125°C and with junction temperatures from –40°C to +150°C. Additionally, this device uses a thermally conductive package to enable sustained operation despite significant dissipation across the device. Because of these features, the device is designed as a power supply for various automotive applications.
