Product details
Overview
TPS73HD318PWP from Texas Instruments is a dual-output LDO voltage regulator with fixed 3.3-V and 1.8-V outputs, designed for split-supply DSP and mixed-voltage systems. It delivers up to 750 mA per channel, features <80 mV dropout at 100 mA (3.3-V rail), 340 µA typical quiescent current per regulator, and dual active-low reset signals with 200-ms pulse width - enabling independent core/I/O reset in battery-powered embedded applications.
For engineers reviewing the TPS73HD318PWP datasheet, TPS73HD318PWP pinout, TPS73HD318PWP application, or TPS73HD318PWP equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-rail output allocation, thermal performance in PowerPAD TSSOP-28, remote sense capability on Regulator #1, and guaranteed operation across −40°C to 125°C ambient.
Technical Context
The TPS73HD318PWP integrates two independent low-dropout regulators sharing a common 28-pin PowerPAD TSSOP package: Regulator #1 provides a fixed 3.3-V output with dropout voltage as low as 44 mV at 100 mA; Regulator #2 delivers a fixed 1.8-V output with 1.2 Ω pass-element resistance at full 750 mA load and −40°C to 125°C operation.
Each regulator includes enable control (active-low), ground separation (1GND/2GND), and dedicated reset outputs (1RESET/2RESET) with 100–300 ms timeout delay. Remote feedback (1FB/SENSE) supports precise regulation at point-of-load for Regulator #1, while Regulator #2 uses internal sensing (2SENSE tied internally).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS73HD325PWP | Fixed 3.3-V / 2.5-V outputs instead of 3.3-V / 1.8-V; higher dropout (800 mV at 750 mA on 2.5-V rail) | Suitable for systems needing 2.5-V I/O (e.g., legacy memory interfaces) rather than 1.8-V logic | Select when 2.5-V rail is required; not interchangeable due to different output voltage setpoints and reset thresholds |
| TPS7A8300RGRT | Single-channel, 3-A adjustable LDO with 45 µVRMS noise; no second output or dual reset | Used where ultra-low noise and high current are prioritized over dual-rail integration | Choose for RF-sensitive applications requiring sub-50 µVRMS noise; requires external 1.8-V regulator for dual-rail needs |
Compared with TPS73HD318PWP, TPS73HD325PWP offers higher second-rail voltage but reduced efficiency at full load, while TPS7A8300RGRT trades integration for precision and noise performance - making TPS73HD318PWP optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained dual-rail DSP systems.

FAQ
What are the output voltage options supported by the TPS73HD318PWP?
The TPS73HD318PWP provides fixed dual outputs: Regulator #1 delivers 3.3 V, and Regulator #2 delivers 1.8 V. These voltages are factory-programmed and not adjustable. The 3.3-V rail has ±2% tolerance over temperature (3.23 V to 3.37 V), and the 1.8-V rail maintains ±1.2% (1.728 V to 1.872 V), ensuring compatibility with standard DSP and FPGA core voltage requirements. No external resistors are needed to set either output.
How does the TPS73HD318PWP handle thermal management in high-power applications?
The TPS73HD318PWP uses a PowerPAD TSSOP-28 package with an exposed thermal pad that must be soldered to a dedicated copper pour on the PCB. With proper layout - such as a 2 in × 2 in thermal pad on a 1-layer board - it sustains 1.9 W at 70°C ambient. Derating is 23.5 mW/°C above 25°C. For higher airflow (300 CFM), power handling increases to 2.8 W at 70°C. Thermal shutdown activates at 165°C junction temperature.
Can the TPS73HD318PWP be used with different input voltage sources for each regulator?
Yes - the TPS73HD318PWP supports independent inputs: Regulator #1 accepts 3.97 V to 10 V (minimum 3.97 V for 3.3-V output), and Regulator #2 accepts 2.97 V to 10 V (minimum 2.97 V for 1.8-V output). Separate 1IN and 2IN pins allow connection to distinct power domains (e.g., buck converter for 3.3-V rail, linear pre-regulator for 1.8-V rail), improving system-level efficiency and fault isolation.
What is the function of the 1FB/SENSE and 2SENSE pins on the TPS73HD318PWP?
The 1FB/SENSE pin enables remote feedback for Regulator #1 (3.3-V rail), allowing regulation at the load to compensate for PCB trace resistance. It must be connected directly to the 3.3-V load point. In contrast, 2SENSE (for the 1.8-V rail) is internally connected and requires no external wiring - the device regulates based on its internal reference, simplifying layout for the fixed 1.8-V output.
Does the TPS73HD318PWP support power sequencing between its two outputs?
Yes - the TPS73HD318PWP supports controlled sequencing via independent enable inputs (1EN and 2EN, both active-low). By asserting 1EN before 2EN (or vice versa), designers can establish precise startup order - e.g., powering the 3.3-V I/O rail before the 1.8-V core to meet DSP boot requirements. Each regulator also features its own reset output (1RESET/2RESET), enabling independent fault signaling without cross-domain interference.
