The TPS7A74 evaluation module (EVM) helps design engineers evaluate the operation and performance of the TPS7A74 linear regulator for possible use in their own circuit application. This EVM configuration contains a single low-noise, small-size, linear regulator for a wide range of applications. The regulator is capable of delivering up to 1.5 A to the load with low VIN-to-VOUT dropout.
For stability, use a minimum derated output capacitance of 4.7-µF (or larger). An added high-performance load-transient circuit is included to improve the measurement capability of the low-dropout (LDO) regulator.
Features
- VOUT range: 0.65 V to 5.5 V
- Low dropout (LDO): 60 mV (typ) at 1.5 A, VBIAS = 5 V
- Power-good (PG) output allows supply monitoring or provides a sequencing signal for other supplies
- 2% accuracy over line, load and temperature
- Programmable soft start provides linear-voltage start up
