First integrated dual regulator simplifies powering split-voltage DSPs

Product features

  • Dual output voltages, 3.3 V and adjustable from 1.2 to 9.75 V
  • Dual active-low resets with 200 ms delay
  • Output current 0 to 750 mA either output, 2-W max dissipation for total device
  • Low supply current, typically 800 µA total
  • ±2-percent accuracy for 3.3-V output; ±3 percent for adjustable output
  • Characterized for operation from –40° C to 125° C

Texas Instruments new TPS73HD301 combines a 3.3-V and an adjustable low dropout regulator with dual processor reset outputs in a single high-power surface mount package.

Typically, new DSPs or microprocessors require two voltages — one to power the peripheral interface and one to power the core sections. The dual-output regulator eliminates three or more components from power supply designs for split-voltage DSPs or processors. Packaged in TI’s patented PowerPAD™ TSSOP package, the TPS73HD301 can supply 750mA from either output, with a 2-W power dissipation limit for the total package. The device is capable of supplying power to multiple low-power DSPs, reducing both system power consumption and board space.

Applications
  • Low-power microprocessor and DSP designs
  • Wireless base stations, handsets
  • Modems
  • Portable battery-powered equipment

The TPS73HD301 uses a PMOS low-power design that enables a dual regulator with micropower supply current requirements and very low dropout voltages. Typical dropout for the 3.3-V output is only 350 mV at the full rating of 750-mA output. Supply current for the entire device is a maximum of 1.1 mA over all specified conditions. Total accuracy for the 3.3-V output is ±2 percent; tolerance on the adjustable output is ±3 percent. Programming the adjustable regulator output is accomplished using an external resistor divider.

The TPS73HD301 is offered in a PowerPAD TSSOP surface-mount package.
