Product details
Overview
TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive-qualified 1A ultra-low-dropout linear regulator with power-good (PG) output, fixed 1.7V output voltage, and wettable-flank 3mm × 3mm VSON-8 package. It operates from 1.5V to 6.0V input, delivers ±1.5% output accuracy over –40°C to +150°C, achieves 265mV max dropout at 1A (for 3.3VOUT), and supports fast load transient response in ADAS camera and cluster display power rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 datasheet, TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 pinout, TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 application, or TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include automotive-grade thermal robustness (RθJA = 55.5°C/W), open-drain or push-pull PG timing options, low 25μA quiescent current, stability with ≥1µF ceramic output capacitor, and functional safety documentation support.
Technical Context
The TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 implements a precision band-gap reference and error amplifier for high DC accuracy, integrated foldback current limiting to reduce thermal stress during short-circuit events, and undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 1.21–1.47V rising threshold and 40mV hysteresis. Its internal architecture enables sequencing control via EN and PG pins across multi-rail automotive systems.
It features dual PG configurations-open-drain (requiring external pull-up) or push-pull (supported for VOUT ≥ 1.0V)-with programmable delay times (e.g., 4.5–5.5ms rising delay for 'B' version), and supports both fixed-output and adjustable-output variants using external feedback resistors on the FB pin.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 1A continuous - sufficient to power SoC cores or image sensors in automotive cameras without derating at TJ ≤ 125°C. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.5V to 6.0V - compatible with 3.3V, 5V, and battery-backed pre-regulated rails in head units and radar modules. |
| Output Accuracy | ±1.5% max over –40°C to +150°C - ensures stable voltage delivery to sensitive analog/RF blocks under extreme ambient conditions. |
| Dropout Voltage | 265mV max at 1A (3.3VOUT) - enables efficient regulation from low-headroom sources like buck converter outputs. |
| PSRR | 38dB at 100kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters in noise-sensitive camera sensor supplies. |
| Quiescent Current | 25μA typical - minimizes standby power loss in always-on telematics and domain controller applications. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 55.5°C/W (DRB package) - allows 1A operation up to +125°C ambient with standard PCB copper area. |
Pinout & Package
TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 uses the DRB (wettable flank VSON-8) package: 3mm × 3mm body with exposed thermal pad electrically connected to GND, enabling optical solder-joint inspection and improved thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: OUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable 1.7V to load; requires ≥1µF ceramic capacitor to ground for stability and transient response. |
| 2: NC | No internal connection | Must be grounded for optimal thermal dissipation; no electrical function. |
| 3: NC | No internal connection | Must be grounded for optimal thermal dissipation; no electrical function. |
| 4: GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for load current and internal circuitry; connects to thermal pad. |
| 5: EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic; >1.0V enables regulator, <0.3V disables it with 1μA shutdown current. |
| 6: PG | Power-good status output | Open-drain or push-pull output indicating VOUT ≥ 92% of nominal; used for supply sequencing and fault detection. |
| 7: NC | No internal connection | Must be grounded for optimal thermal dissipation; no electrical function. |
| 8: IN | Input supply | Accepts 1.5–6.0V input; requires ≥1µF ceramic capacitor to GND near pin for EMI suppression and transient response. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS74618PQWDRBRQ1 | Fixed 1.8V output; identical package, pinout, and specs except VOUT. | Used where system requires 1.8V I/O or core rail instead of 1.7V; no change to layout or sequencing logic. | Select when target SoC or sensor specifies 1.8V nominal supply - same thermal, noise, and PG behavior. |
| NCP1117ST17T3G | Industrial-grade (not AEC-Q100), 1A, 1.7V fixed, SOT-223 package; higher dropout (1.1V typ), no PG output. | Limited to non-safety-critical, non-automotive applications; lacks sequencing capability and automotive temp range. | Only suitable for cost-sensitive industrial prototypes; not qualified for production automotive use due to missing AEC-Q100, PG, and thermal specs. |
Compared with TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1, the TPS74618PQWDRBRQ1 offers identical automotive qualification and functionality at 1.8V, while the NCP1117ST17T3G lacks AEC-Q100 compliance, PG signaling, and low-dropout performance - making it unsuitable for ADAS or cluster applications requiring functional safety and tight regulation.

FAQ
What is the output voltage of the TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1?
The TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 is a fixed-output LDO with a nominal output voltage of 1.7V. This value is factory-trimmed and guaranteed within ±1.5% over the full operating temperature range of –40°C to +150°C junction temperature, making it suitable for powering 1.7V I/O domains in automotive SoCs and image sensors.
Does the TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 support power sequencing with other regulators?
Yes, the TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 supports precise power sequencing via its active-high EN input and configurable power-good (PG) output. The PG pin can be configured as open-drain or push-pull and asserts when VOUT reaches ≥92% of 1.7V, enabling coordination with upstream/downstream supplies in multi-rail automotive systems such as telematics control units.
What package type does the TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 use, and why is it important for automotive applications?
The TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 uses the DRB package: a wettable flank VSON-8 (3mm × 3mm) with exposed thermal pad. This package enables automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints - a critical requirement for zero-defect manufacturing in automotive Tier-1 production - while delivering low RθJA = 55.5°C/W for reliable 1A operation at high ambient temperatures.
Is the TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 qualified for automotive use, and what grade does it meet?
Yes, the TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications and meets Grade 1 specifications, supporting operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. Its junction temperature range extends to +150°C, and it includes functional safety documentation to aid ISO 26262 ASIL-B system-level development for ADAS and digital cluster applications.
What is the minimum output capacitor required for stability with the TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1?
The TPS74617PQWDRBRQ1 is stable with a minimum 1µF ceramic output capacitor (X5R or X7R dielectric). This low capacitance requirement reduces solution size and cost compared to legacy LDOs needing ≥10µF tantalum capacitors, while maintaining excellent load transient response and phase margin across temperature and process variations.
