Product details
Overview
TLE4276 V85 from Infineon Technologies is a monolithic linear voltage regulator delivering a fixed 8.5 V output with up to 400 mA load current, integrated short-circuit and thermal shutdown protection, and designed for automotive power supply rails in engine control units and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the TLE4276 V85 datasheet, TLE4276 V85 pinout, TLE4276 V85 application, or TLE4276 V85 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 400 mA, quiescent current in standby mode, load dump immunity per ISO 7637-2, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for under-hood operation.
Technical Context
The TLE4276 V85 operates as a low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator using bipolar technology, with internal bandgap reference and error amplifier driving a Darlington pass transistor. It features active current limiting that transitions smoothly into foldback during overload.
Its protection architecture includes reversible thermal shutdown with hysteresis, reverse-battery protection down to –16 V, and transient overvoltage clamping compliant with ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a (load dump up to 60 V). The device maintains regulation over input voltages from 5.5 V to 45 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 8.5 V ±2%, stable across temperature and line/load variations for powering microcontrollers and sensors. |
| Max Output Current | 400 mA continuous, enabling direct supply of ECUs with multiple peripherals without external boost stages. |
| Dropout Voltage | Typ. 0.65 V at 400 mA, allowing operation down to 9.15 V input while maintaining regulation during cold-crank conditions. |
| Quiescent Current | Typ. 120 µA in standby mode, minimizing battery drain during vehicle sleep states. |
| Input Voltage Range | 5.5 V to 45 V, supporting 12 V and 24 V automotive systems including load dump transients. |
| Protection Features | Integrated short-circuit, thermal shutdown, reverse-battery (–16 V), and load dump (60 V) protection per ISO 7637-2. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in TO220-5-3 package: 5-pin through-hole outline with exposed tab for thermal dissipation and mechanical mounting. Pin 1 = Input, Pin 2 = Ground, Pin 3 = Output, Pin 4 = Sense (not connected in standard configuration), Pin 5 = Enable (active-high, internally pulled down).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (IN) | Main power input | Accepts unregulated 5.5–45 V supply; connects directly to battery rail via fuse and EMI filter. |
| Pin 2 (GND) | Power ground reference | Low-impedance return path shared with sense and enable; must be routed to main chassis ground point. |
| Pin 3 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers stable 8.5 V to downstream logic; requires local 10 µF ceramic + 100 µF electrolytic output capacitance. |
| Pin 4 (SENSE) | Remote output sensing | Optional Kelvin connection to load to compensate for PCB trace resistance; left open for standard use. |
| Pin 5 (EN) | Enable control input | Active-high logic input; pull high ≥2.0 V to activate regulator; tied low or floating disables output. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified | Rated for –40 °C to +125 °C ambient, validated for under-hood automotive deployment without derating. |
| Load dump protection (60 V) | Withstands ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a without external TVS, reducing BOM count and board space. |
| Reverse-battery tolerance (–16 V) | Survives incorrect battery connection without damage or latch-up, eliminating need for series diode. |
| Adjustable enable threshold | EN pin threshold configurable via external resistor divider to match system wake-up logic levels. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for regulation at full 400 mA load?
The TLE4276 V85 maintains regulation down to 9.15 V input at 400 mA due to its 0.65 V typical dropout voltage. Below this, output drops linearly with input; operation below 5.5 V input is not functional.
Does the SENSE pin require external connection in standard applications?
No - Pin 4 (SENSE) is optional and left unconnected in standard configurations. It is only used for remote sensing in high-current layouts where PCB trace resistance causes significant voltage drop between regulator output and load.
Can the EN pin be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes - the EN pin has a 2.0 V typical threshold and draws <1 µA, making it compatible with 3.3 V CMOS logic. No level-shifting is needed, and internal pull-down ensures safe default-off behavior.
Is external output capacitance mandatory, and what type is recommended?
Yes - a minimum 10 µF ceramic capacitor (X7R, 16 V rating) is required at the output for stability. Adding a 100 µF aluminum or polymer electrolytic in parallel improves transient response and reduces low-frequency ripple.
