Product details
Overview
TLV73328PDBVR from Texas Instruments is a capacitor-free, 300-mA, low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) in a 1.0-mm × 1.0-mm X2SON-4 package, delivering 2.8 V output with 1.4% max accuracy, 125 mV dropout at 300 mA (VOUT = 3.3 V), and 34 µA quiescent current. It serves as a primary power rail for ultra-compact battery-powered systems requiring stable, low-noise voltage regulation without external output capacitance.
For engineers reviewing the TLV73328PDBVR datasheet, TLV73328PDBVR pinout, TLV73328PDBVR application, or TLV73328PDBVR equivalent, key selection criteria include capacitor-free stability, active output discharge, foldback overcurrent protection, thermal shutdown behavior, and compatibility with 1.4–5.5 V input sources in space-constrained portable designs.
Technical Context
The TLV73328PDBVR employs a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling true capacitor-free operation-stable with zero output capacitance while remaining compatible with optional 1-µF ceramic capacitors. Its enable circuitry features asymmetric thresholds: VEN(HI) ≥ 0.9 V (enable) and VEN(LO) ≤ 0.35 V (disable), with no internal pull-down on EN.
It integrates undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 1.25–1.4 V falling/rising thresholds, foldback current limiting (360–700 mA ILIM, collapsing to ~170 mA short-circuit), and thermal shutdown (160°C trip, 140°C reset). The 120-Ω active pull-down discharges the output during disable, with discharge time dependent on COUT and load resistance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.8 V ±1.4% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures consistent biasing for 2.8-V logic, sensors, or RF front-end stages. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA continuous - supports moderate-power microcontrollers, camera modules, or USB peripherals without thermal derating in DQN package. |
| Dropout Voltage | 125 mV at 300 mA (for VOUT = 3.3 V); for 2.8 V variant: ≤260 mV @ –40°C to +85°C - enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V min) with margin. |
| Quiescent Current | 34 µA typical - minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems like real-time clocks or wake-up controllers. |
| PSRR | 68 dB @ 100 Hz, 35 dB @ 10 kHz - suppresses switching noise from DC/DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Enable Thresholds | VEN(HI) ≥ 0.9 V, VEN(LO) ≤ 0.35 V - compatible with 1.8-V and 3.3-V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 160°C trip / 140°C reset - provides robust fault recovery in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments. |
Pinout & Package
TLV73328PDBVR uses the DQN (X2SON-4) package: 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm, 0.4 mm height, wettable flank terminals, thermal pad electrically connected to GND. Recommended solder paste stencil: 0.12 mm thickness, 0.35 mm × 0.35 mm apertures.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: OUT | Regulated output | Delivers 2.8 V; stable with or without external capacitor; connects to load and optional 1-µF ceramic cap. |
| 2: GND | Ground reference | Common return for IN, OUT, and EN; thermal pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for RθJB = 164.9°C/W. |
| 3: EN | Enable control | Active-high digital input; no internal pull-down; requires external pull-up if floating; drives >0.9 V to enable. |
| 4: IN | Input supply | Accepts 1.4–5.5 V; recommended 100-nF ceramic decoupling to GND near pin; UVLO engages below 1.25 V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Capacitor-free stability | Operates reliably with zero output capacitance - eliminates BOM cost, board area, and inrush current at startup. |
| Active output discharge | 120-Ω pulldown activated during shutdown - ensures rapid, controlled discharge of output node for sequencing compliance. |
| Foldback overcurrent protection | Current limit reduces as VOUT collapses (e.g., short-circuit → ~170 mA) - limits power dissipation and prevents thermal runaway. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 34 µA typical - extends battery life in IoT edge nodes where sleep-mode current dominates energy budget. |
| High PSRR at low frequency | 68 dB @ 100 Hz - effectively filters ripple from buck converter outputs or noisy shared rails. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLS850F0TESK | 500-mA automotive-grade LDO with integrated watchdog and reset; requires 2.2-µF output cap; 60 µA IQ. | Designed for ASIL-B automotive body electronics; includes safety monitoring not present in TLV73328PDBVR. | Select when functional safety compliance (ISO 26262) and system-level supervision are required; avoid for consumer portables due to higher cost and size. |
| MCP1804T-2802I/OT | 300-mA, 2.8-V fixed LDO in SOT-23-5; 110 µA IQ; requires 1-µF output cap; 350 mV dropout @ 300 mA. | Higher dropout and quiescent current; no active discharge or foldback protection; legacy silicon process. | Choose only for legacy redesigns where X2SON footprint is incompatible; TLV73328PDBVR offers superior efficiency, size, and protection in new designs. |
Compared with TLS850F0TESK and MCP1804T-2802I/OT, TLV73328PDBVR delivers the smallest solution size (no output cap needed), lowest quiescent current, and fastest transient response-making it optimal for next-generation portable and space-constrained industrial devices where BOM count and standby power are critical.

FAQ
Does TLV73328PDBVR require an output capacitor to operate?
No, TLV73328PDBVR is architecturally stable with zero output capacitance due to its capacitor-free internal compensation. This eliminates inrush current and saves PCB area. However, adding a 1-µF ceramic capacitor improves load transient response and reduces output noise-especially beneficial in noise-sensitive analog circuits powered by TLV73328PDBVR.
What is the maximum input voltage for TLV73328PDBVR?
The absolute maximum input voltage for TLV73328PDBVR is 6.0 V, but the recommended operating range is 1.4 V to 5.5 V. Operation above 5.5 V risks permanent damage. For reliable 2.8-V regulation, VIN must exceed 2.8 V plus dropout (≤260 mV at 300 mA, +85°C), so minimum practical VIN is ~3.06 V.
How does the enable pin (EN) function on TLV73328PDBVR?
TLV73328PDBVR features an active-high EN pin: drive >0.9 V to enable regulation; drive <0.35 V to disable. There is no internal pull-down, so EN must be actively driven or externally pulled up. During disable, the 120-Ω active pulldown discharges the output-discharge time depends on COUT and load resistance per τ = (120 Ω ∥ RL) × COUT.
Can TLV73328PDBVR be used in automotive applications?
TLV73328PDBVR is rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and meets AEC-Q200 stress test requirements for temperature cycling and HBM ESD (±2000 V), but it is not officially qualified to AEC-Q100. For production automotive ECUs, TI recommends automotive-grade alternatives like TLV73328QDBVRQ1. TLV73328PDBVR is suitable for non-safety-critical automotive accessories or prototyping.
What thermal performance can be expected from TLV73328PDBVR in the X2SON-4 package?
In the DQN (X2SON-4) package, TLV73328PDBVR has RθJA = 218.6°C/W (JEDEC high-K board) and RθJB = 164.9°C/W. With proper thermal pad soldering to a 1-in² 1-oz copper pour, it sustains 300 mA at +85°C ambient when VIN = 3.8 V (ΔV = 1.0 V). Derating is required above 100°C junction temperature; maximum continuous IOUT drops to ~220 mA at +125°C ambient.
