Product details
Overview
TPS75615KTTT from Texas Instruments is a 5-A, 1.5-V fixed-output low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator in a TO-263 (KTT) surface-mount package. It delivers up to 5 A with a typical dropout voltage of 250 mV at full load, quiescent current of 125 µA, and ±3% output voltage tolerance over line, load, and temperature (–40°C to +125°C). It is used in high-current point-of-load regulation for FPGA core supplies and DSP power rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS75615KTTT datasheet, TPS75615KTTT pinout, TPS75615KTTT application, or TPS75615KTTT equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout performance at 5 A, thermal shutdown behavior at 150°C, EN pin logic thresholds (2 V high / 0.7 V low), output capacitor stability requirements (≥47 µF, ≥200 mΩ ESR), and TO-263 thermal resistance (RθJA = 38.7°C/W).
Technical Context
The TPS75615KTTT uses a PMOS pass element enabling low dropout and load-independent quiescent current. Its bandgap reference is trimmed to 1.22 V, and internal feedback is hardwired for 1.5-V output - eliminating external resistor networks required by the adjustable TPS75601 variant.
It integrates thermal shutdown (trip at 150°C, resume at ~130°C), current limiting (~10 A peak), undervoltage lockout (UVLO threshold 2.2–2.75 V), and fast transient response optimized for large-slew load steps (e.g., 1.25 A/µs). The FB/NC pin is unconnected in fixed-output versions, confirming no external feedback path is used.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage | 1.5 V ±3% over –40°C to +125°C, line, and load - ensures stable core supply for 1.5-V logic families. |
| Max output current | 5 A continuous - supports high-power digital ICs without external current boosting. |
| Dropout voltage | 250 mV typical at 5 A - enables 1.5-V output from as low as 1.75-V input (e.g., LiFePO₄ battery discharge tail). |
| Quiescent current | 125 µA at full load, <1 µA in shutdown - extends battery life in always-on systems. |
| Enable threshold | EN high ≥2 V, low ≤0.7 V - compatible with 1.8-V and 3.3-V GPIO without level shifting. |
| Thermal shutdown | Activates at 150°C junction, auto-resumes at ~130°C - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
| PSRR | 60 dB at 100 Hz (1.5-V output) - suppresses ripple from upstream switching converters feeding the LDO. |
Pinout & Package
TPS75615KTTT is housed in a 5-pin TO-263 (KTT) thermally enhanced surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is EN, Pin 2 is IN, Pin 3 is GND, Pin 4 is OUTPUT, and Pin 5 is FB/NC (no connection for fixed 1.5-V version).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic: >2 V enables regulation; <0.7 V forces shutdown (<1 µA IQ). |
| 2 - IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2.8 V to 5.5 V; minimum VI = VO + 1 V = 2.5 V for 1.5-V output under full load. |
| 3 - GND | Regulator ground reference | Must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane; shares return path with output capacitor. |
| 4 - OUTPUT | Regulated output | Delivers 1.5 V ±3% at up to 5 A; requires ≥47 µF output capacitor with ≥200 mΩ ESR for stability. |
| 5 - FB/NC | Feedback input / No connect | Internally tied to reference for fixed 1.5-V operation; left floating - no external components needed. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| PMOS pass transistor | Enables 250-mV dropout at 5 A and load-independent 125-µA quiescent current - critical for battery runtime. |
| Fast transient response | Stabilizes within microseconds after 5-A load step (di/dt = 1.25 A/µs); ΔVO < ±50 mV with 100-µF output cap - maintains digital IC timing margins. |
| Integrated protection | Current limit (~10 A), thermal shutdown (150°C), and UVLO (2.2–2.75 V) - eliminates need for external fault management circuitry. |
| TO-263 thermal performance | RθJA = 38.7°C/W (JEDEC 2S2P board, no heatsink) - enables 2.4 W dissipation at 55°C ambient before reaching 125°C TJ limit. |
| Low-noise output | 35 µVrms noise (300 Hz–50 kHz) - suitable for noise-sensitive analog peripherals powered from same rail. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS75715KTTT | Same 1.5-V output, 5-A rating, TO-263 package, but features power-good (PG) output and lower 80-µA quiescent current. | Required when system-level power sequencing or fault reporting is needed; PG signal asserts after output reaches regulation. | Select TPS75715KTTT if power-good monitoring is mandatory; otherwise TPS75615KTTT offers simpler enable-only control. |
| LP38798SD-1.5/NOPB | 1.5-V, 5-A LDO in 8-pin SO PowerPAD; dropout 220 mV at 5 A; quiescent current 100 µA; no EN pin - always-on. | Suitable for space-constrained PCBs needing ultra-low dropout and no enable control; lacks shutdown mode. | Choose LP38798SD-1.5/NOPB only if EN functionality is unnecessary and footprint size is prioritized over control flexibility. |
Compared with TPS75615KTTT, TPS75715KTTT adds power-good signaling at slightly lower quiescent current but same thermal and electrical specs, while LP38798SD-1.5/NOPB trades enable control for smaller footprint and marginally better dropout - making each suitable for distinct system architecture needs.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for TPS75615KTTT?
The absolute maximum input voltage for TPS75615KTTT is 6 V, but the recommended operating range is 2.8 V to 5.5 V. For reliable 1.5-V output at 5 A, the minimum input must be at least 2.5 V (VO + 1 V) per datasheet guidance; exceeding 5.5 V risks permanent damage.
Does TPS75615KTTT require an external feedback resistor network?
No. TPS75615KTTT is a fixed 1.5-V output variant - its feedback is internally configured. Pin 5 (FB/NC) is not connected and must remain unpopulated; no external resistors are needed or permitted for output voltage setting.
What output capacitor is required for stable operation of TPS75615KTTT?
TPS75615KTTT requires a minimum 47-µF output capacitor with ≥200 mΩ ESR. Solid tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors meeting these values ensure loop stability; ceramic capacitors alone are insufficient due to near-zero ESR and risk of oscillation.
How does the enable (EN) pin function on TPS75615KTTT?
The EN pin on TPS75615KTTT is active-high: applying ≥2 V enables regulation, while ≤0.7 V places the device in shutdown mode drawing <1 µA. A pull-up resistor to VIN is recommended if EN is driven by an open-drain controller output.
Can TPS75615KTTT be used in automotive applications?
TPS75615KTTT is rated for –40°C to +125°C operating junction temperature and qualified per JEDEC standards, but it is not AEC-Q100 qualified. For automotive applications requiring qualification, consult TI's automotive-grade alternatives such as the TPS7H3301-SP or LP8733xx series.
