Product details
Overview
TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive-grade 1-A linear voltage regulator with adjustable output (0.8 V to 14.6 V), 1% output accuracy over load and temperature, 50 µA typical quiescent current, and 70 dB PSRR at 1 kHz. It operates from 2.5 V to 16 V input and delivers stable bias for SiC gate drivers and automotive head units.
For engineers reviewing the TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 datasheet, TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 pinout, TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 application, or TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (0.63 V typ at 1 A), thermal shutdown threshold (180°C), wettable-flank WSON-8 package, and enable-controlled soft-start (500 µs).
Technical Context
The TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 implements a CMOS pass transistor architecture with internal 0.8-V reference, foldback current limiting, and active output pulldown during disable. Its UVLO circuit features 130 mV hysteresis and thresholds of 2.22 V (rising) and 2.09 V (falling), ensuring robust startup under varying input conditions.
It integrates thermal shutdown with 20°C hysteresis (180°C trip / 160°C reset), supports remote sensing via SNS pin in fixed-output variants, and achieves high PSRR (>46 dB at 1 MHz) through wide-bandwidth error amplifier design - critical for post-regulating switching converter outputs in noise-sensitive automotive subsystems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output current | 1 A max continuous - supports MCU core rails and gate driver bias without external heatsinking in thermally optimized layouts. |
| Input voltage range | 2.5 V to 16 V - compatible with 12-V automotive battery rails, transformer secondaries, and upstream DC/DC outputs. |
| Output accuracy | ±1% over –40°C to +125°C ambient - meets tight supply requirements of digital loads including automotive MCUs and processors. |
| Quiescent current | 50 µA typ (no load), 4 µA max (shutdown) - enables always-on systems with low standby power consumption. |
| PSRR | 70 dB at 1 kHz, 46 dB at 1 MHz - attenuates switching ripple from upstream converters, reducing need for additional filtering. |
| Dropout voltage | 0.63 V typ at 1 A (VIN ≥ 3.0 V) - enables regulation from low headroom inputs such as 3.3-V or 5-V intermediate rails. |
| Thermal resistance | RθJA = 51.9°C/W - allows 1-A operation up to +125°C ambient when mounted on 2-layer PCB with thermal pad connected to ground plane. |
Pinout & Package
TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 uses an 8-pin, 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm WSON package (DRB) with wettable flanks and exposed thermal pad. The package supports automated optical inspection (AOI) and provides low thermal resistance (RθJA = 51.9°C/W) when the thermal pad is soldered to a large-area ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (Pin 8) | Power input | Accepts 2.5–16 V input; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to IN and GND pins for stability. |
| OUT (Pin 1) | Regulated output | Delivers 0.8–14.6 V adjustable output; supports ≥1 µF output capacitance with ESR ≤500 mΩ. |
| FB (Pin 3) | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider to set output voltage; must not be left floating; internal 0.8-V reference. |
| GND (Pins 4, 6) | Ground reference | Both pins must be connected to system ground; shared return path for input/output capacitors and thermal pad. |
| EN (Pin 5) | Enable control | Active-high logic input (1.2 V min high, 0.4 V max low); internal pullup allows floating for default-enable operation. |
| NC (Pins 2, 7) | No connect | Not internally bonded; may be floated or tied to GND for improved thermal performance. |
| Thermal pad | Thermal interface | Exposed copper pad beneath package; must be soldered to PCB ground plane to achieve rated RθJA. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive ambient operation from –40°C to +125°C and junction temperatures up to +150°C. |
| Internal soft-start | 500 µs typical ramp time - limits inrush current, enabling smaller input capacitance and reducing stress on upstream supplies. |
| Foldback current limiting | 1.37 A typical current limit with foldback activation at 50% of nominal VOUT - protects against short-circuit faults while minimizing thermal runaway. |
| Output pulldown circuit | 1.2 mA typical sink capability activated during shutdown - actively discharges output capacitance to prevent floating rail conditions. |
| Stability with low-ESR capacitors | Stable with ≥1 µF ceramic output capacitor (ESR ≤500 mΩ) - eliminates need for tantalum or electrolytic capacitors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV76712QWDRBRQ1 | Fixed 1.2-V output; identical package, thermal specs, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating. | Eliminates external feedback resistors but lacks output adjustability for multi-rail systems. | Select when fixed 1.2-V rail is required and board space for feedback network must be minimized. |
| TLS850F0TESV33 | 500-mA output, integrated watchdog timer and reset generator; TO-263-7 package. | Targets safety-critical ASIL-B domains; includes diagnostic features absent in TLV76790QWDRBRQ1. | Choose when functional safety compliance (ISO 26262) and system-level supervision are mandatory. |
Compared with TLV76712QWDRBRQ1, TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 offers output flexibility at the cost of two external resistors; versus TLS850F0TESV33, it trades integrated diagnostics for higher current and lower quiescent power - making it optimal for non-safety-critical, high-efficiency bias rails.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for TLV76790QWDRBRQ1?
The absolute maximum input voltage for TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 is 18 V, though recommended operation is limited to 16 V. Exceeding 18 V risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation at 16 V is supported across the full –40°C to +125°C ambient range, with thermal derating applied above 125°C junction temperature.
Does TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 support remote voltage sensing?
No, TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 does not support remote sensing. It is the adjustable version of the TLV767-Q1 family and uses the FB pin for local feedback only. Remote sensing is implemented only in fixed-output variants (e.g., TLV76712QWDRBRQ1) via the SNS pin - a function not present in TLV76790QWDRBRQ1's pinout or internal architecture.
What is the minimum output capacitor required for stability with TLV76790QWDRBRQ1?
TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 is stable with a minimum 1-µF ceramic output capacitor having ESR ≤500 mΩ. The datasheet confirms stability down to 0.5 µF effective capacitance, but 1 µF is the recommended minimum for robust phase margin across temperature and load. Tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors are not required.
How does the enable pin (EN) behave when left unconnected on TLV76790QWDRBRQ1?
When left floating, the EN pin of TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 is pulled high internally via a 200–800 nA current source, enabling the regulator by default. This allows simplified implementation in always-on applications. To disable the device, EN must be driven below 0.4 V; pulling it to GND achieves full shutdown with 4 µA max quiescent current.
Is TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 compatible with standard WSON-8 reflow profiles?
Yes, TLV76790QWDRBRQ1 complies with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 2a and supports standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C). Its wettable flanks enable reliable solder joint inspection using automated optical inspection (AOI), and the 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm footprint matches industry-standard WSON-8 land patterns.
