Product details
Overview
TPS71533DCKRM3 from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output 3.3-V, 50-mA low-dropout linear regulator in SC70-5 package, featuring 3.2 μA typical quiescent current, 2.5 V to 24 V input range, and stable operation with ≥0.47 μF output capacitance - designed for battery-powered microcontroller power rails in space-constrained industrial sensors.
For engineers reviewing the TPS71533DCKRM3 datasheet, TPS71533DCKRM3 pinout, TPS71533DCKRM3 application, or TPS71533DCKRM3 equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low IQ across full load range (0–50 mA), dropout voltage of 415 mV at 50 mA, thermal performance up to +125°C junction, and compatibility with standard SC70 PCB footprints requiring no external feedback components.
Technical Context
The TPS71533DCKRM3 implements a CMOS pass transistor architecture with internal 1.205-V bandgap reference and leakage-null control circuitry active below 5 μA load. Its dropout behavior follows RDS(ON)-based scaling, delivering 415 mV typical VDO at 50 mA while maintaining regulation down to –40°C.
It integrates overcurrent protection with brick-wall limiting (125–350 mA depending on chip revision), internal soft-start to suppress inrush current, and operates without external compensation - enabled by stability with ceramic capacitors ≥0.47 μF and ESR-independent design.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±4% accuracy over temperature and line/load conditions - eliminates need for external resistor divider and associated tolerance stack-up. |
| Quiescent Current | 3.2 μA typical across 0–50 mA load and –40°C to +125°C - enables multi-year battery life in always-on IoT endpoints. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 24 V (30 V absolute max for new-chip M3 variant) - supports direct connection to 12-V/24-V industrial buses and Li-ion stacks without pre-regulation. |
| Dropout Voltage | 415 mV typical at 50 mA load - allows regulation from 3.715 V input, critical for single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V) applications near end-of-discharge. |
| Output Capacitance | ≥0.47 μF ceramic (50% derated minimum effective value) - enables use of small 0402/0603 MLCCs without stability risk. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial motor-control enclosures without derating. |
| PSRR @ 100 kHz | 60 dB - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
Pinout & Package
TPS71533DCKRM3 uses the 5-pin SC70 (DCK) package, measuring 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm, with exposed pad not electrically connected. Thermal resistance RθJA is 195.7°C/W (new chip), optimized for low-power board-level dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NC) | No-connect | Internally unconnected; recommended tied to GND for improved thermal conduction and EMI suppression. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for regulator current and feedback network; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 3 (NC) | No-connect | Internally unconnected; same thermal recommendation as Pin 1. |
| 4 (IN) | Input supply | Accepts 2.5–24 V; requires ≥0.1 μF ceramic capacitor to GND close to pin to damp source inductance effects. |
| 5 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers stable 3.3 V; requires ≥0.47 μF ceramic capacitor to GND with effective value maintained after derating. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 3.2 μA typical across full 0–50 mA load range and –40°C to +125°C - preserves battery capacity during deep-sleep MCU states. |
| Wide-input-voltage operation | 2.5 V to 24 V input range - eliminates need for intermediate buck stage when powering from 12-V or 24-V rails or multi-cell batteries. |
| Capacitor-stable design | Stable with ≥0.47 μF ceramic output capacitor - avoids costly tantalum or polymer caps and simplifies BOM. |
| Integrated overcurrent protection | Brick-wall current limit (125–350 mA) - prevents thermal runaway during short-circuit or inrush events without external sensing. |
| Internal soft-start | Controlled output ramp at enable - prevents large inrush into downstream capacitive loads and avoids input rail sag. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS71533DCKR | Same SC70-5 package and electrical specs, but legacy chip revision (higher IQ drift above 100°C, 750 mA current limit vs 350 mA). | Legacy version lacks M3-specific leakage-null optimization and tighter current-limit spec - suitable only where extended high-temp operation is not required. | Select TPS71533DCKR only if cost sensitivity outweighs thermal margin needs and long-term availability is confirmed. |
| MCP1703T-3302E/MB | 3.3 V fixed, 250 mA rated, 1.8 μA IQ, SOT-23-5 package - higher current but larger footprint and different pinout (IN-GND-EN-OUT-NC). | Supports higher load currents and lower IQ, but requires PCB redesign due to non-compatible pin mapping and 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm body size. | Choose MCP1703T-3302E/MB only when >50 mA load headroom or sub-2 μA IQ is mandatory and layout change is acceptable. |
Compared with TPS71533DCKRM3, the legacy TPS71533DCKR offers identical form factor but reduced thermal robustness above 100°C, while the MCP1703T-3302E/MB provides higher output current and lower IQ at the cost of incompatible pinout and larger PCB area - making TPS71533DCKRM3 optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding 50-mA applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for TPS71533DCKRM3?
The TPS71533DCKRM3 is rated for 24 V maximum continuous input voltage, with an absolute maximum of 30 V applicable only to the new-chip M3 revision. Exceeding 24 V in normal operation risks violating recommended conditions and may impact long-term reliability - always verify actual VIN against datasheet limits for the specific device lot.
Does TPS71533DCKRM3 require an external feedback resistor network?
No, TPS71533DCKRM3 is a fixed-output 3.3-V variant and contains internal feedback resistors. Unlike the adjustable TPS71501, it has no FB pin and uses Pins 1 and 3 as NC - eliminating external resistor selection, tolerance errors, and board space for feedback components.
Can TPS71533DCKRM3 operate stably with a 0.47 μF X7R ceramic capacitor?
Yes, TPS71533DCKRM3 is explicitly characterized and guaranteed stable with ≥0.47 μF ceramic output capacitance, including common X7R dielectrics. The datasheet specifies this minimum effective value after 50% derating - so a nominal 1.0 μF X7R cap meets the requirement under bias and temperature.
What is the thermal performance difference between legacy and M3 versions of TPS71533DCKRM3?
The M3 revision (TPS71533DCKRM3) features improved thermal resistance: RθJA = 195.7°C/W versus 253.8°C/W for legacy chips. This 23% reduction enables higher sustained output current at elevated ambient temperatures - critical for sealed enclosures or stacked PCBs where airflow is limited.
Is TPS71533DCKRM3 pin-compatible with other SC70-5 LDOs like TPS79533?
No, TPS71533DCKRM3 is not pin-compatible with TPS79533 or other SC70-5 LDOs. While both use SC70-5 packaging, TPS71533DCKRM3 assigns Pins 1 and 3 as NC, whereas TPS79533 uses Pin 1 for EN and Pin 3 for GND - requiring PCB redesign and netlist changes for substitution.
