Product details
Overview
TPS728185315DRVT from Texas Instruments is a 200mA low-dropout linear regulator with pin-selectable dual-output voltages (1.85V and 3.15V), 230mV typical dropout at full load, ±3% output accuracy over load/line/temperature, and stable operation with 1.0μF ceramic output capacitance. It serves as a power-management IC in portable memory card interfaces requiring dynamic voltage scaling between programming and operational modes.
For engineers reviewing the TPS728185315DRVT datasheet, TPS728185315DRVT pinout, TPS728185315DRVT application, or TPS728185315DRVT equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-voltage toggle timing (<40μs), ultra-low quiescent current (50μA active / 0.1μA shutdown), thermal shutdown at +160°C, PSRR of 65dB at 1kHz, and compatibility with 0.9V–3.6V EEPROM-programmable output ranges.
Technical Context
The TPS728185315DRVT implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture with factory-EEPROM-programmed dual output levels (VOUT1 = 1.85V, VOUT2 = 3.15V), selected via the VSET pin logic threshold (VLO ≤ 0.4V, VHI ≥ 1.2V). Its internal bandgap reference and error amplifier deliver 3% DC accuracy across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
It features active pulldown circuitry for fast output discharge during shutdown, undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 2.51V nominal turn-on and 230mV hysteresis, and thermal protection that disables output above +160°C and re-enables at +140°C. The device operates with input voltage from 2.7V to 6.5V and supports stable regulation down to zero load current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage Levels | 1.85V (VSET low) and 3.15V (VSET high); factory-programmed, non-adjustable |
| Max Output Current | 200mA continuous; internally current-limited to 240–575mA depending on conditions |
| Dropout Voltage | 230mV typical at 200mA; enables operation with minimal VIN–VOUT headroom |
| Quiescent Current | 50μA active mode; 0.1μA shutdown mode - critical for battery-powered standby |
| PSRR @ 1kHz | 65dB - suppresses ripple from noisy system rails feeding memory controllers |
| Accuracy | ±3% over full temperature, load, and line range - ensures reliable EEPROM programming margin |
| Startup Time | 160μs to 97% of nominal VOUT - supports fast wake-up in DVS applications |
Pinout & Package
TPS728185315DRVT uses the DRV package: 2mm × 2mm WSON-6 with exposed thermal pad (pin 6). Thermal pad must be connected to GND for thermal performance and electrical stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.7V–6.5V input; requires local 0.1–1.0μF bypass capacitor for transient immunity |
| 2 (GND) | Power ground reference | Common return for IN, OUT, EN, VSET; thermal pad (pin 6) must connect here |
| 3 (EN) | Enable control input | Active-high TTL/CMOS-compatible; <0.4V = shutdown (100nA IQ), >1.2V = active |
| 4 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers 1.85V or 3.15V; requires 1.0μF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor to GND for stability |
| 5 (VSET) | Voltage level select | Drives low (≤0.4V) for 1.85V output, high (≥1.2V) for 3.15V output; no external pull required |
| 6 (Thermal Pad) | Thermal and electrical ground | Exposed copper pad; soldered to PCB GND plane to dissipate heat and reduce θJA by ~45°C/W |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-pin-selectable output | VSET toggles between 1.85V (memory operating) and 3.15V (EEPROM programming) without external resistors |

| Fast VSET toggle response | <40μs transition time (1.85V ↔ 3.15V at 1–10mA load) - enables rapid DVS state changes |
| Stable with minimal capacitance | Guaranteed stability with 1.0μF ceramic output cap - reduces BOM count and board area |
| Integrated thermal shutdown | +160°C trip / +140°C reset - protects against sustained overload without external circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-voltage LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS728180285YZUT | Same dual-output (1.80V/2.85V), but in YZU WCSP-5 package (1.2mm × 0.8mm); no thermal pad; 85°C/W θJA | Targeted for space-constrained wearables; lacks thermal pad for high-current thermal management | Select when board area <1.0mm² is critical and peak load ≤150mA; verify thermal margin at +85°C ambient |
| TPS728120150DRVT | Different output pair (1.20V/1.50V); identical DRV package, pinout, and electrical specs otherwise | Suitable for low-voltage logic rails (e.g., 1.2V core + 1.5V I/O) rather than memory programming interfaces | Choose only if system requires sub-1.8V dual-rail support; not functionally interchangeable with TPS728185315DRVT |
Compared with TPS728185315DRVT, the YZUT alternative trades thermal performance for miniaturization, while the DRVT variant offers different voltage pairing - neither provides pin-to-pin or functional equivalence for 1.85V/3.15V memory card use cases.

FAQ
What are the exact factory-programmed output voltages for TPS728185315DRVT?
The TPS728185315DRVT is factory-programmed with two precise output voltages: 1.85V when VSET is driven low (≤0.4V), and 3.15V when VSET is driven high (≥1.2V). These values are laser-trimmed during manufacturing and are not adjustable; the part number encoding "185315" directly reflects these nominal voltages.
Does TPS728185315DRVT require an input capacitor for stability?
No, the TPS728185315DRVT does not require an input capacitor for stability, but TI recommends a 0.1μF–1.0μF low-ESR ceramic capacitor near the IN pin to improve transient response and noise rejection. This is especially important when the device is remote from the main power source or subject to fast load transients.
Can TPS728185315DRVT operate with input voltage below 2.7V?
No - the absolute minimum input voltage for TPS728185315DRVT is 2.7V per the datasheet's operating conditions. Below this, UVLO prevents regulation, and the device remains in shutdown. For 1.85V output, VIN must be ≥2.7V (i.e., ≥0.85V headroom); dropout voltage rises significantly below spec limits.
How is thermal management handled on the DRV package of TPS728185315DRVT?
The TPS728185315DRVT in DRV package features an exposed thermal pad (pin 6) that must be soldered to a PCB ground plane. TI specifies RθJA = 65°C/W on high-K board; omitting thermal pad connection degrades θJA by >30°C/W and risks thermal shutdown above 150mW dissipation at +70°C ambient.
Is TPS728185315DRVT compatible with automatic optical inspection (AOI) after reflow?
Yes - the TPS728185315DRVT DRV package (2mm × 2mm WSON-6) has fully exposed top-side markings and coplanar leads suitable for standard AOI systems. Its NIPDAUAG lead finish and Level-1 MSL rating support single-reflow assembly without moisture sensitivity concerns.
