Product details
Overview
TLE42742DV50NTMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a monolithic high-precision linear voltage regulator delivering fixed 5.0 V ±2% output at up to 400 mA, featuring integrated short-circuit and thermal shutdown protection, designed for automotive power supply rails in engine control units and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the TLE42742DV50NTMA1 datasheet, TLE42742DV50NTMA1 pinout, TLE42742DV50NTMA1 application, or TLE42742DV50NTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (typ. 300 mV at 400 mA), quiescent current (120 µA), and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for under-hood operation.
Technical Context
This device implements a bandgap reference-based error amplifier driving a PNP pass transistor, enabling stable regulation across input voltages from 5.5 V to 42 V. It includes reverse-battery protection and load-dump tolerance up to 60 V transient per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a.
Internal circuitry provides undervoltage lockout (UVLO) activation below 4.5 V and enables precise reset functionality via an open-drain RESET output that asserts low when VOUT drops below 4.75 V with 100 ms delay.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±2% - ensures compatibility with 5 V microcontrollers and CAN transceivers without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 400 mA - supports multiple downstream ICs including MCUs, sensors, and interface ICs in compact ECUs. |
| Dropout Voltage | 300 mV @ 400 mA - enables operation down to 5.3 V input, critical during cold-crank battery conditions. |
| Quiescent Current | 120 µA - minimizes standby power loss in always-on vehicle modules like door controllers. |
| Reset Threshold | 4.75 V with 100 ms delay - provides clean power-on reset signaling for microcontroller initialization. |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +150 °C - qualified for placement near engines or in transmission control units. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in PG-TO252-3 (DPAK) package with exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation in automotive PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 5.5–42 V DC; withstands 60 V load-dump transients per ISO 7637-2. |
| GND | Power ground reference | Common return path for regulator output and internal protection circuits. |
| VOUT | Regulated 5 V output | Delivers up to 400 mA; connects directly to MCU VCC or sensor supply rails. |
| RESET | Open-drain reset output | Pulls low when VOUT < 4.75 V; requires external pull-up for microcontroller reset assertion. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for −40 °C to +150 °C ambient operation in safety-critical automotive systems. |
| Reverse-battery protection | Withstands −16 V applied to IN without damage-eliminates need for external series diode. |
| Integrated thermal shutdown | Activates at junction temperature >170 °C and auto-recovers after cooldown-prevents permanent failure during overload. |
| Load-dump protection | Survives 60 V/100 ms transients per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a-enables direct battery connection in ECU designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV73350PDBVR | Lower max current (300 mA), no RESET output, no load-dump rating | Suitable only for non-automotive, low-power industrial sensors | Select only if AEC-Q100 and 60 V transient immunity are not required. |
| MC78T05CD2TR4G | Higher dropout (2 V @ 400 mA), no reverse-battery protection, no RESET | Limited to 12 V systems with stable input; lacks automotive qualification | Use only in legacy 12 V chassis designs where thermal margin permits higher dropout loss. |
Compared with TLV73350PDBVR and MC78T05CD2TR4G, TLE42742DV50NTMA1 uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 1, 60 V load-dump survival, reverse-battery tolerance, and integrated RESET-making it the sole choice for new automotive ECU designs requiring functional safety compliance.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for regulation at full 400 mA load?
The TLE42742DV50NTMA1 maintains regulation down to 5.3 V input at 400 mA due to its 300 mV typical dropout voltage. Below this threshold, output voltage collapses linearly; operation is guaranteed only above 5.5 V per datasheet specifications.
Does the RESET output require an external pull-up resistor?
Yes-the RESET pin is open-drain and must be pulled up to a logic-compatible voltage (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V) with a resistor typically between 10 kΩ and 100 kΩ to assert a valid reset signal to the connected microcontroller.
Can this regulator be used in parallel to increase output current?
No-TLE42742DV50NTMA1 lacks current-sharing capability or master/slave control. Parallel connection risks thermal imbalance and uncontrolled current distribution; use a single unit rated for the full load or select a higher-current alternative.
Is the thermal pad on the DPAK package electrically connected?
Yes-the exposed thermal pad is internally connected to GND and must be soldered to a PCB copper pour tied to the system ground plane to ensure both thermal performance and electrical safety per Infineon's mounting recommendations.
