Product details
Overview
TPS75733KTTRG3 from Texas Instruments is a 3-A, 3.3-V fixed-output low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator in TO-263 (KTT) surface-mount package, featuring 150 mV typical dropout at 3 A, 125 µA quiescent current, and open-drain power-good (PG) output for system monitoring in high-current digital supply rails.
For engineers reviewing the TPS75733KTTRG3 datasheet, TPS75733KTTRG3 pinout, TPS75733KTTRG3 application, or TPS75733KTTRG3 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout performance under full load, thermal behavior in PCB-constrained layouts, PG timing hysteresis, and compatibility with 100 µF ceramic output capacitors per TI's stability guidelines.
Technical Context
The TPS75733KTTRG3 uses a PMOS pass element enabling low dropout (150 mV @ 3 A) and load-independent quiescent current (125 µA). Its bandgap reference is trimmed to 1.22 V, and output voltage tolerance is ±3% over line, load, and temperature (−40°C to 125°C).
Power-good (PG) is an active-low open-drain output with 91% VO trip threshold and 0.5% VO hysteresis; enable (EN) is TTL-compatible with logic-low activation. Thermal shutdown engages at 150°C and recovers at ~130°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±3% over −40°C to 125°C, 0–3 A load, and 4.3–5.5 V input range. |
| Dropout Voltage | 150 mV typical at 3 A (TJ = 25°C); ensures stable 3.3-V output from ≥3.45-V input under full load. |
| Quiescent Current | 125 µA typical at full 3-A load; drops to <1 µA in shutdown (EN = high), extending battery life. |
| Power-Good Output | Open-drain PG with 91% VO trip and 0.5% VO hysteresis; requires external pull-up for reset sequencing. |
| Thermal Protection | Shuts down at 150°C junction temperature; auto-resumes after cooling to ~130°C - prevents permanent damage during overload. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.8 V to 5.5 V; minimum valid input = VO + VDO(max) = 3.3 V + 300 mV = 3.6 V at worst-case load/temperature. |
| Package Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 38.7°C/W (JEDEC High-K board, no heatsink); enables ~2.4 W dissipation at ΔT = 93°C (125°C − 32°C ambient). |
Pinout & Package
TPS75733KTTRG3 is housed in a 5-pin TO-263 (KTT) thermally enhanced surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad connected to GND. Pin 1 is EN, Pin 2 is IN, Pin 3 is GND, Pin 4 is OUTPUT, and Pin 5 is FB/PG (functionally FB for adjustable variants, PG for fixed-output TPS75733).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - EN | Enable input | Active-low TTL input; logic low enables regulation; logic high disables device and reduces IQ to <1 µA. |
| 2 - IN | Input voltage | Accepts 2.8–5.5 V; must remain ≥3.6 V under 3-A load to maintain regulation (VO + VDO). |
| 3 - GND | Regulator ground | Reference node for all internal circuitry; thermal pad must be soldered to PCB GND plane for RθJA = 38.7°C/W. |
| 4 - OUTPUT | Regulated output | Delivers up to 3 A at 3.3 V; requires ≥100 µF low-ESR ceramic output capacitor for stability per Fig. 1. |
| 5 - FB/PG | Feedback / Power-good | For TPS75733KTTRG3: open-drain PG output; sinks current when VO ≥91% of 3.3 V (≈3.00 V). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| PMOS Pass Element | Enables 150 mV dropout at 3 A and eliminates reverse-current conduction path limitations seen in NMOS LDOs. |
| Fast Transient Response | ±15 mV output deviation under 3-A step load (Fig. 16); supports FPGA/CPU core rail dynamic current demands. |
| Integrated Power-Good | PG output provides hardware reset signaling without external comparators - simplifies power sequencing in multi-rail systems. |
| Low Quiescent Current | 125 µA at full 3-A load - critical for always-on subsystems where standby efficiency impacts total system battery life. |
| Thermal Shutdown with Hysteresis | Shuts down at 150°C and restarts at ~130°C - prevents thermal runaway while allowing safe recovery without manual reset. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS75733KTT | Same silicon, identical electrical specs; differs only in packaging - KTT is tape-and-reel variant without "R" suffix or "G3" grade marking. | No functional difference; suitable for same PCB layout and thermal design; used in non-automotive volume production. | Select TPS75733KTT if RoHS-compliant but non-automotive-grade qualification is sufficient and tape-and-reel delivery is preferred. |
| TLV75733PDBVR | 1-A rated, SOT-23-5 package, 220 mV dropout at 1 A, 25 µA IQ, no PG output, RθJA = 229°C/W. | Limited to ≤1 A loads; unsuitable for thermal-constrained 3-A designs; lacks PG for sequencing-critical systems. | Choose TLV75733PDBVR only for space-constrained, low-power auxiliary rails where 3-A capability and PG are unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS75733KTTRG3, TPS75733KTT offers identical performance in tape-and-reel form for standard industrial use, while TLV75733PDBVR trades current capacity, thermal performance, and power-good functionality for ultra-small footprint - making it viable only for sub-1-A auxiliary supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the TPS75733KTTRG3?
The TPS75733KTTRG3 delivers up to 3 A of continuous output current under specified thermal conditions (TJ ≤ 125°C, RθJA = 38.7°C/W). Internal current limiting activates at ~10 A to prevent damage, but sustained operation above 3 A requires careful thermal design using PCB copper planes or forced airflow to maintain junction temperature within limits.
Does the TPS75733KTTRG3 require an external pull-up resistor on the PG pin?
Yes, the TPS75733KTTRG3 PG pin is an open-drain output and requires an external pull-up resistor (typically 10 kΩ to 3.3 V or 5 V) to generate a valid logic-high signal when the output voltage is within regulation. Without this resistor, PG remains floating and cannot drive downstream reset logic reliably.
Can the TPS75733KTTRG3 operate with a 3.6-V input supplying 3.3-V output at 3 A?
Yes - the TPS75733KTTRG3 has a typical dropout of 150 mV at 3 A and 25°C, so 3.6-V input exceeds the minimum required 3.45 V (3.3 V + 150 mV). At worst-case temperature (125°C), dropout rises to 300 mV, requiring ≥3.6 V input - confirming 3.6 V is marginally sufficient but 3.8 V+ is recommended for robustness.
What is the purpose of the thermal pad on the TPS75733KTTRG3 TO-263 package?
The exposed thermal pad on the TPS75733KTTRG3 TO-263 (KTT) package must be soldered to the PCB ground plane to achieve the specified RθJA of 38.7°C/W. Leaving it unconnected or floating increases thermal resistance significantly, risking thermal shutdown under 3-A load - proper thermal pad layout is mandatory for rated performance.
How does the enable (EN) pin function on the TPS75733KTTRG3?
The EN pin on the TPS75733KTTRG3 is active-low: applying ≤0.7 V enables regulation, while ≥2 V disables the device and reduces quiescent current to <1 µA. It is TTL-compatible and does not require external pull-down; unused EN should be tied to GND for default operation.
