Product details
Overview
TL751M12QKVURQ1 from Texas Instruments is an automotive-grade 12-V low-dropout linear voltage regulator in TO-252-5 (KVU) package, featuring enable control, load-dump protection up to 60 V, dropout voltage ≤0.6 V at 750 mA, and operation from –40°C to 125°C. It delivers stable power to infotainment head units, body control modules, and ADAS camera power rails.
For engineers reviewing the TL751M12QKVURQ1 datasheet, TL751M12QKVURQ1 pinout, TL751M12QKVURQ1 application, or TL751M12QKVURQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, TTL/CMOS-compatible ENABLE input, thermal overload protection, and compliance with automotive load-dump transients per ISO 7637-2.
Technical Context
The TL751M12QKVURQ1 integrates internal overvoltage, overcurrent, and thermal shutdown circuitry to survive harsh automotive environments. Its ENABLE input allows precise sequencing-high logic disables output (high-impedance state), enabling controlled power-up/down in multi-rail systems.
Designed for permanent battery connection, it maintains low quiescent current (≤75 mA at full load) and supports input transients up to 60 V for 100 ms during load dump. Output voltage accuracy is ±2% over temperature and line/load conditions.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar automotive LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL751M12QKTTRQ1 | Same electrical specs, but in TO-263-5 (KTT) package with higher θJA (26.5°C/W vs 38.6°C/W) | Better thermal performance in low-airflow chassis locations; requires larger PCB footprint | Select for higher power dissipation margins where board space permits |
| TPS7B8750QKVURQ1 | 5-V fixed output, 500-mA rating, lower dropout (0.35 V), integrated watchdog timer | Not a direct voltage/function replacement; suited for MCU core rails, not 12-V peripherals | Choose only if system redesign accommodates 5-V rail and requires built-in supervision |
Compared with TL751M12QKTTRQ1 and TPS7B8750QKVURQ1, TL751M12QKVURQ1 offers optimal balance of 12-V output, 750-mA capability, TO-252-5 compactness, and proven load-dump robustness-making it the preferred choice for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 12-V automotive peripheral regulation.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the TL751M12QKVURQ1 can withstand during load-dump events?
The TL751M12QKVURQ1 withstands transient input voltages up to 60 V for durations ≤100 ms, complying with ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a for automotive load-dump protection. This eliminates the need for external TVS diodes in most front-end protection schemes. Continuous input voltage must remain ≤26 V. The device's internal overvoltage protection activates above this threshold to prevent damage.
Does the TL751M12QKVURQ1 require an external capacitor for stability, and what are the recommended values?
Yes, TL751M12QKVURQ1 requires an output capacitor with controlled ESR for loop stability. TI specifies a minimum 10-µF tantalum capacitor with ESR between 0.13 Ω and 2 Ω (depending on load current). For 750-mA loads, 10–47 µF with 0.3–0.8 Ω ESR is typical. Input requires ≥0.1 µF ceramic. Deviations outside these ranges risk oscillation or poor transient response.
How does the ENABLE pin function on the TL751M12QKVURQ1, and what logic levels are required?
The ENABLE pin on TL751M12QKVURQ1 is TTL/CMOS-compatible: VIH ≥2 V enables regulation (output active), while VIL ≤0.8 V forces output into high-impedance state (shutdown). During shutdown, quiescent current drops to ≤200 µA. The pin has no internal pull-up/down, so external biasing is required in floating conditions to ensure defined startup behavior.
Is the TL751M12QKVURQ1 qualified to AEC-Q100, and which grade does it meet?
Yes, TL751M12QKVURQ1 is AEC-Q100 qualified per Grade 1, meaning it is specified for operation from –40°C to +125°C virtual junction temperature. This qualification covers stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity, ESD, and lifetime reliability-ensuring suitability for passenger compartment and under-hood automotive applications.
What thermal considerations apply to the TL751M12QKVURQ1 in TO-252-5 (KVU) package?
The TL751M12QKVURQ1 in TO-252-5 has θJA = 38.6°C/W (JEDEC high-K board). To maintain TJ ≤125°C at 750 mA output with 13 V input (1.5 W dissipation), ambient must stay ≤98°C with standard layout. Use of the exposed thermal pad soldered to ≥2 cm² copper pour with ≥4 thermal vias is mandatory. Without proper thermal design, internal thermal shutdown will activate.
