Product details
Overview
TLE4473G V52 from Infineon Technologies is a dual low-dropout voltage regulator IC for automotive microcontroller and sensor power supply, delivering 300 mA at 2.6 V (±3%) on Q1 and 180 mA at 5 V (±2%) on Q2, with independent inhibit control, watchdog supervision on Q1, and dual reset outputs - deployed in engine control units and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the TLE4473G V52 datasheet, TLE4473G V52 pinout, TLE4473G V52 application, or TLE4473G V52 equivalent, key selection considerations include output voltage configuration (2.6 V/5 V vs. 3.3 V/5 V), watchdog timing dependency on D1 capacitor value, reset delay adjustability per channel, and PG-DSO-12 thermal performance under 150 °C junction operation.
Technical Context
The TLE4473G V52 integrates two LDO regulators with separate enable logic (INH1 disables both outputs; INH2 disables only Q2), each with dedicated reset generation (RO1 for Q1 with integrated watchdog; RO2 for Q2). It operates from 5.6 V to 42 V input and maintains regulation down to < 0.5 V dropout at full load.
Its watchdog circuit monitors WI (positive-edge triggered) to sustain RO1 high; absence of pulses discharges D1 capacitor until VDL1 is reached, asserting reset. Reset delays for both channels are set externally via capacitors on D1 and D2, enabling programmable power-on timing and fault recovery windows.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Q1 Output Voltage | 2.6 V ±3% - fixed core supply for 2.6 V microcontrollers or ASICs requiring tight tolerance |
| Q2 Output Voltage | 5.0 V ±2% - stable I/O or sensor interface rail tolerant of automotive load dump transients |
| Max Output Current | Q1: 300 mA; Q2: 180 mA - sufficient for MCU core + peripheral clusters without external boost |
| Quiescent Current | < 1 µA with both outputs disabled - enables ultra-low-power sleep mode in always-on vehicle modules |
| Operating Input Range | 5.6 V to 42 V - supports cold-crank (5.6 V) and load-dump (42 V) conditions per ISO 7637-2 |
| Junction Temp Range | −40 °C to +150 °C - qualified for under-hood placement without derating |
| Dropout Voltage | < 0.5 V at full load - minimizes power loss and heat generation in high-ambient environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-DSO-12 (exposed thermal pad, RoHS-compliant, lead-free, moisture sensitivity level 3).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 WI | Watchdog input | Positive-edge-triggered signal from MCU to prevent RO1 reset assertion during normal operation |
| 2 RO2 | Reset output for Q2 | Open-collector output asserting low when Q2 voltage falls below VRT2 or D2 capacitor discharges |
| 3 RO1 | Reset & watchdog output for Q1 | Open-collector output combining power-on reset and watchdog timeout detection for MCU core supply |
| 4 Q2 | Main 5 V output | Regulated 5 V rail requiring ≥22 µF/ESR <5 Ω ceramic or tantalum bulk capacitance |
| 5 Q1 | Core 2.6 V output | Regulated 2.6 V rail requiring ≥10 µF/ESR <5 Ω bulk capacitance for digital core stability |
| 6 N.C. | No connect | Internally unused; must be connected to GND for mechanical and thermal integrity |
| 7 I | Input voltage | High-voltage input (5.6–42 V); requires local ceramic decoupling directly at pin |
| 8 INH1 | Inhibit 1 | Active-low global disable: pulls both Q1 and Q2 into standby (<1 µA IQ) |
| 9 INH2 | Inhibit 2 | Active-low Q2-only disable - enables selective shutdown of I/O rail while retaining core power |
| 10 D2 | Reset delay 2 | Capacitor connection point setting Q2 reset delay time (tD2 ∝ CD2) |
| 11 D1 | Reset delay 1 / watchdog timing | Capacitor connection point setting Q1 reset delay and maximum watchdog pulse interval (tWI,tr = 0.42 ms/nF × CD1) |
| 12 GND | Ground / heatsink | Power and signal reference; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent inhibit inputs | INH1 globally disables both outputs; INH2 selectively disables only Q2 - enabling flexible power sequencing in multi-rail systems |
| Integrated watchdog on Q1 | Monitors MCU activity via WI pin; asserts RO1 low if no edge occurs within programmable window - prevents lockup without external timer |
| Two adjustable reset outputs | RO1 and RO2 each driven by separate RC networks (D1/D2 pins) - allows asymmetric reset timing for core vs. I/O domains |
| Short-circuit & overtemperature protection | Auto-recovering foldback current limiting and thermal shutdown at ~175 °C - sustains reliability during sustained overload or cooling failure |
| Automotive-grade thermal design | Rthj-a = 48 K/W with 300 mm² copper heatsink - supports continuous 150 °C junction operation in constrained enclosures |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Body Control Module (BCM) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output automotive LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV70733PDQNR | Single 3.3 V output (300 mA), no 5 V rail, no watchdog, no dual reset - lacks Q2 functionality and supervision features | Suitable only for single-rail 3.3 V systems without safety monitoring | Select only if application requires only one regulated rail and no functional safety features |
| TLE42744G V33 | Dual 5 V outputs (500 mA + 150 mA), no 2.6 V option, no watchdog, RO1/RO2 present but no WI pin - missing core-supply-specific supervision | Applicable where both rails must be 5 V (e.g., legacy sensor clusters), but cannot replace 2.6 V core requirement | Choose when dual 5 V regulation suffices and watchdog is not required for MCU supervision |
Compared with TLV70733PDQNR and TLE42744G V33, the TLE4473G V52 uniquely delivers matched 2.6 V/5 V outputs with integrated watchdog and dual independent reset - making it irreplaceable for new automotive MCU designs requiring ASIL-aware power management.

FAQ
What is the function of the WI (Watchdog Input) pin?
The WI pin accepts positive-edge-triggered pulses from the MCU to reset the internal watchdog timer. If no edge occurs within the programmable window (set by capacitor on D1), the RO1 output asserts low, signaling a system fault. This prevents MCU lockup without requiring an external timer IC.
How does the INH1 and INH2 pin logic differ?
INH1 is an active-low global inhibit: pulling it low disables both Q1 and Q2 outputs simultaneously, reducing quiescent current to <1 µA. INH2 is an active-low Q2-only inhibit: it disables only the 5 V output while leaving Q1 (2.6 V) active - enabling selective power-down of I/O peripherals during sleep modes.
Can the TLE4473G V52 be used outside automotive applications?
Yes, but its design targets automotive requirements: wide input range (5.6–42 V), −40 °C to +150 °C operation, and robust protection features. In industrial applications with similar voltage/thermal stress - such as railway control or off-highway machinery - it provides proven reliability, though non-automotive users should verify AEC-Q100 test reports for their specific use case.
What capacitor values are recommended for D1 and D2 to achieve standard reset delays?
For a typical 100 ms power-on reset delay on Q1 (RO1), use 220 nF on D1; for 100 ms on Q2 (RO2), use 220 nF on D2. These values align with the formula tD = (VDU − VDL) × C / IDC, where IDC1 = IDC2 ≈ 10 µA per datasheet. Always validate timing with actual board layout parasitics and temperature variation.
