7.1 Overview

The TPS794 family of LDO regulators has been optimized for use in noise-sensitive. The device features extremely low dropout voltages, high PSRR, ultralow output noise, low quiescent current, and enable-input to reduce supply currents to less than 1μA when the regulator is turned off.
