7.1 Overview

The TPS7A4101 belongs to a family of linear regulators that use an innovative BiCMOS process technology to achieve very high maximum input and output voltages.

This process not only allows the TPS7A4101 to maintain regulation during very fast high-voltage transients up to 50 V, but this process also allows the TPS7A4101 to regulate from a continuous high-voltage input rail. Unlike other regulators created using bipolar technology, the TPS7A4101 ground current is also constant over its output current range, resulting in increased efficiency and lower power consumption.

These features, combined with a high thermal performance HVSSOP-8 PowerPAD package, make this device ideal for industrial and telecom applications.
