This parallel low-dropout (LDO) reference design showcases the TPS7A85 low-noise LDO linear regulator in a parallel configuration, which is capable of sourcing 3.5 A per LDO or 7 A per board. Additional design flexibility includes the ability to stack this design to meet the current requirements of an application.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
