Product details
Overview
TPS71825-12DRVT from Texas Instruments is a dual-output, 200mA low-noise LDO regulator with independent enables, delivering fixed 2.5V on OUT1 and 1.2V on OUT2. It operates from 2.7V to 6.5V input, achieves 230mV dropout at 200mA, and maintains ±3% output accuracy over temperature, line, and load. Used in space-constrained portable systems requiring clean, sequenced power for RF and analog circuitry.
For engineers reviewing the TPS71825-12DRVT datasheet, TPS71825-12DRVT pinout, TPS71825-12DRVT application, or TPS71825-12DRVT equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, package layout guidance, dual-rail sequencing behavior, PSRR performance at 1kHz/1MHz, and validated alternative options for dual-LDO replacement in handheld and wireless designs.
Technical Context
The TPS71825-12DRVT integrates two independent PMOS-based LDOs sharing a common IN and GND, each with dedicated EN pins (EN1 for OUT1, EN2 for OUT2) enabling precise power sequencing. Its BiCMOS process delivers ultra-low 90µA total quiescent current with both regulators enabled and supports stable operation with ≥1µF ceramic output capacitors.
It features 70µVRMS output noise (scaled per VOUT), 65dB PSRR at 1kHz dropping to 45dB at 1MHz, and built-in protection including over-current, thermal shutdown (trip at +160°C, reset at +140°C), and undervoltage lockout (UVLO threshold 2.45V ±70mV). No active pulldown - distinct from TPS719xx family.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltages | 2.5V (OUT1), 1.2V (OUT2) - factory-programmed fixed outputs; no external feedback required. |
| Max output current per rail | 200mA - sufficient to power baseband processors, RF transceivers, or image sensors without derating at +85°C. |
| Dropout voltage | 230mV at 200mA - enables regulation from 2.73V input on 2.5V rail and 1.43V input on 1.2V rail. |
| Total quiescent current | 90µA (typical) with both LDOs enabled - critical for battery runtime in always-on subsystems. |
| PSRR @ 1kHz / 1MHz | 65dB / 45dB - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding sensitive analog/RF stages. |
| Output noise density | 70µVRMS/VOUT - translates to 175µVRMS on 2.5V rail and 84µVRMS on 1.2V rail (100Hz–100kHz). |
| Operating temperature | –40°C to +125°C junction - qualified for automotive infotainment and industrial edge nodes. |
Pinout & Package
TPS71825-12DRVT uses the DRV package: 2mm × 2mm WSON-6 (SON-6) with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is located at bottom-left corner (A1); thermal pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT1 | Regulator 1 output | Delivers 2.5V; requires ≥1µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient response. |
| IN | Input supply | Common input for both LDOs; accepts 2.7V–6.5V; decoupling capacitor recommended near pin. |
| OUT2 | Regulator 2 output | Delivers 1.2V; requires ≥1µF ceramic capacitor to GND; separate ground path improves PSRR. |
| EN2 | Enable for OUT2 | Active-high logic; drives high (>1.25V) to enable 1.2V rail; pulls low (<0.4V) for shutdown (ISHDN ≤3µA). |
| GND | Ground reference | Common analog/digital ground; thermal pad must connect directly to PCB ground plane. |
| EN1 | Enable for OUT1 | Active-high logic; independent control of 2.5V rail; enables power sequencing (e.g., 2.5V before 1.2V). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent enables | EN1 and EN2 allow flexible power-up/down sequencing - e.g., enable 2.5V rail first for I/O before activating 1.2V core. |
| Low-noise regulation | 70µVRMS/VOUT noise ensures minimal interference with ADC references, PLL VCO supplies, or RF bias rails. |
| Stable with 1µF ceramics | Eliminates need for large tantalum or electrolytic capacitors - reduces board area and cost in compact layouts. |
| High PSRR at low headroom | 65dB @ 1kHz even with VIN–VOUT = 0.5V - maintains clean output when fed from tightly regulated intermediate rails. |
| Full protection suite | Integrated over-current limit (240–575mA), thermal shutdown (+160°C trip), and UVLO prevent damage during fault conditions. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS71825-18DRVT | Same DRV package and 2.5V/1.8V output pair; higher second-rail voltage increases margin for 1.8V I/O interfaces. | Not suitable where 1.2V core rail is mandatory (e.g., ARM Cortex-M4F cores); requires redesign of downstream 1.2V loads. | Select only if system requires 1.8V instead of 1.2V for interface compatibility - no PCB change needed. |
| TPS71925-12DRVT | Includes active output pulldown on both rails; 180µs shutdown discharge vs. open-circuit decay in TPS71825-12DRVT. | Required in systems needing rapid rail discharge to meet safety or state-reset requirements (e.g., medical sensors). | Choose when fast VOUT discharge is critical; otherwise, TPS71825-12DRVT offers lower cost and identical regulation specs. |
Compared with TPS71825-12DRVT, TPS71825-18DRVT changes only the second output voltage (1.8V vs. 1.2V) with identical pinout and specs, while TPS71925-12DRVT adds active pulldown but shares same voltage set and package - making both viable alternatives depending on discharge or interface-voltage needs.

FAQ
What are the exact output voltages of the TPS71825-12DRVT?
The TPS71825-12DRVT delivers precisely 2.5V on OUT1 and 1.2V on OUT2. These values are factory-programmed using EEPROM and are not adjustable. Output accuracy is ±3% over full temperature, line, and load conditions, with typical deviation <±2.5mV at +25°C.
Does the TPS71825-12DRVT include active output pulldown during shutdown?
No, the TPS71825-12DRVT does not feature active pulldown. When EN1 or EN2 is pulled low, the corresponding output enters high-impedance state and discharges only through external load or parasitic paths. For controlled discharge, use TPS71925-12DRVT - the pin-compatible variant with integrated pulldown circuitry.
What is the minimum input voltage required for the TPS71825-12DRVT to regulate both outputs?
The minimum input voltage is determined by the higher dropout requirement: 2.5V rail needs VIN ≥ 2.5V + 0.23V = 2.73V; 1.2V rail needs VIN ≥ 1.2V + 0.23V = 1.43V. Thus, 2.73V is the effective minimum. The datasheet specifies absolute minimum VIN as 2.7V, aligning with the 2.5V rail's requirement.
Can the TPS71825-12DRVT operate with only 1µF output capacitance on each rail?
Yes - the TPS71825-12DRVT is explicitly designed to be stable with ≥1µF ceramic output capacitors (X5R/X7R) on both OUT1 and OUT2. Larger values improve transient response but are not required for stability. ESR must remain <1.0Ω across temperature.
Is the TPS71825-12DRVT RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the TPS71825-12DRVT is RoHS compliant and uses NiPdAu (NIPDAUAG) lead finish. It carries MSL Level-1 rating (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH) and is qualified for peak reflow up to 260°C, meeting JEDEC J-STD-020 standards.
