Product details
Overview
TPS727185YFFT from Texas Instruments is a 1.85-V fixed-output, 250-mA ultralow-IQ LDO linear regulator in a 4-ball DSBGA package (1.20 mm × 0.80 mm), featuring 7.9 µA quiescent current, 65 mV dropout at 100 mA, and ±50 mV load transient response for 200 mA step changes. It powers RF-sensitive analog rails in compact portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the TPS727185YFFT datasheet, TPS727185YFFT pinout, TPS727185YFFT application, or TPS727185YFFT equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-programmed 1.85-V output, 70 dB PSRR at 1 kHz, thermal shutdown at +160°C, stable operation with 1.0-µF ceramic output capacitance, and compatibility with 0.4-mm pitch wafer-level packaging for space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The TPS727185YFFT uses a PMOS pass transistor to achieve low dropout and maintains regulation down to 65 mV headroom at 100 mA. Its internal EEPROM sets the precise 1.85-V output voltage, eliminating external feedback components.
It integrates undervoltage lockout (UVLO) triggering at 1.90 V (typ), active-high enable logic with 0.9 V turn-on threshold, and thermal shutdown cycling between +140°C (restart) and +160°C (shutdown). Ground pin current remains ≤130 µA across full load and temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.85 V ±2% over load, line, and –40°C to +125°C - eliminates need for external resistor divider and ensures precision biasing of RF ICs. |
| Max Output Current | 250 mA - supports moderate-power RF transceivers and baseband processors without external current boosting. |
| Quiescent Current | 7.9 µA - enables multi-week battery life in always-on sensor nodes and Bluetooth LE peripherals. |
| Dropout Voltage | 65 mV at 100 mA - allows operation from single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2 V) or coin-cell sources with minimal headroom loss. |
| PSRR | 70 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters feeding sensitive analog/RF circuitry. |
| Load Transient Response | ±50 mV for 200 mA load step - maintains stable supply during burst-mode RF transmission without external compensation. |
| Output Capacitor | Stable with ≥1.0 µF X5R/X7R ceramic - reduces BOM count and PCB area versus tantalum or electrolytic alternatives. |
Pinout & Package
TPS727185YFFT is housed in a 4-ball, 0.4-mm pitch DSBGA (DSBGA-4) package measuring 1.20 mm × 0.80 mm, optimized for ultra-compact handheld and wearable applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (A2) | Input power supply connection | Accepts 2.0–5.5 V input; requires local 0.1–1.0 µF ceramic decoupling to ground for optimal transient rejection. |
| EN (A1) | Active-high enable control | Drives >0.9 V to enable; <0.4 V to enter 120 nA shutdown - compatible with GPIOs of ultra-low-power MCUs. |
| GND (B1) | Ground reference | Primary return path for load and quiescent current; ball B1 is marked with dot on 1.85-V variants per TI YFF0004 outline. |
| OUT (B2) | Regulated output | Delivers 1.85 V ±2%; must connect ≥1.0 µF ceramic capacitor directly to this pin and GND for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory EEPROM voltage programming | Enables exact 1.85-V output without external resistors - guarantees accuracy across temperature and simplifies layout. |
| Ultralow ground pin current | ≤130 µA at 250 mA load and +125°C - minimizes system-level power loss and improves efficiency in battery-powered systems. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | +160°C shutdown / +140°C restart - protects against sustained overload while allowing safe recovery without manual reset. |
| No noise-reduction pin required | 33.5 µVRMS output noise (100 Hz–100 kHz) - meets RF PLL and ADC reference requirements without additional filtering components. |
| Soft-start current control | 70 mA typical startup current for 1 µF COUT - prevents inrush-induced rail collapse and avoids false triggering of upstream power monitors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS72718YFFT | Fixed 1.80 V output (vs. 1.85 V); identical package, pinout, and specs otherwise | Used where 1.80 V is required for legacy SoC compatibility or tighter margin on 1.8-V nominal rails | Select when system requires exactly 1.80 V; no layout change needed - direct functional substitute with same thermal and transient behavior. |
| TPS7A05185PDBVR | 1.85 V output but in SOT-23-5 package; 1.5 µA IQ, 150 mA max output, higher dropout (250 mV @ 100 mA) | Suitable for cost-sensitive, non-space-constrained designs where ultra-small size is secondary to lowest possible IQ | Choose for lower quiescent current in less compact assemblies; not pin-compatible - requires PCB redesign and derating for 250 mA loads. |
Compared with TPS727185YFFT, TPS72718YFFT offers identical performance at 1.80 V for pin-compatible replacement, while TPS7A05185PDBVR trades size and current capability for ultra-low 1.5 µA IQ in a larger, non-drop-in package.

FAQ
What is the exact output voltage tolerance of the TPS727185YFFT over temperature and load?
The TPS727185YFFT delivers 1.85 V with ±2.0% DC accuracy across the full operating range: –40°C to +125°C junction temperature, 0–250 mA load, and input voltage from VOUT + 0.3 V to 5.5 V. This specification is guaranteed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the SBVS128F datasheet and applies directly to the TPS727185YFFT variant.
Does the TPS727185YFFT require an input capacitor for stability?
The TPS727185YFFT does not require an input capacitor for basic stability, but TI recommends a 0.1–1.0 µF ceramic capacitor from IN to GND to improve transient response, reduce input ripple coupling, and counteract source impedance. This is specified in Section 8.2.1.1 of the TPS727185YFFT datasheet and applies to all YFF-package variants including the TPS727185YFFT.
What is the maximum junction temperature before thermal shutdown activates in the TPS727185YFFT?
The TPS727185YFFT enters thermal shutdown at +160°C (typical), with automatic recovery when junction temperature falls to +140°C (typical). This hysteresis prevents oscillation near the trip point and is fully characterized in the Electrical Characteristics table of the TPS727185YFFT datasheet under parameter TSD.
Can the TPS727185YFFT operate with a 1.0-µF output capacitor, and what type is recommended?
Yes, the TPS727185YFFT is explicitly designed to be stable with a minimum 1.0-µF ceramic output capacitor. X5R and X7R dielectrics are recommended due to their low ESR (<200 mΩ) and minimal capacitance shift over temperature - details are confirmed in Section 8.2.1.1 of the TPS727185YFFT datasheet.
Is the TPS727185YFFT pin-compatible with other members of the TPS727xxYFF family?
Yes, all TPS727xxYFF variants - including TPS727185YFFT, TPS72718YFFT, and TPS72728YFFT - share identical DSBGA-4 pinout (IN, EN, GND, OUT), package dimensions (1.20 mm × 0.80 mm), and ball pitch (0.4 mm). The only difference is factory-programmed output voltage, making them drop-in replacements for voltage-scaling design iterations.
