Product details
Overview
TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive-grade low-dropout linear regulator delivering 1.6V fixed output at up to 150mA, with input voltage range 2.7V–10V, ±1.5% output accuracy (typical), and 175mV dropout (typical at 150mA). It powers microcontrollers and sensors in high-voltage battery systems and instrument clusters where thermal robustness (–40°C to +150°C TJ) and ESD resilience are critical.
For engineers reviewing the TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 datasheet, TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 pinout, TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 application, or TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5-pin SOT-23 package, active over-shoot pulldown protection, logic-enabled sleep mode (≤1μA standby), and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors (0Ω–1Ω).
Technical Context
The TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 implements a bandgap-referenced feedback control loop with internal 1.2V reference and UVLO circuitry. Its architecture integrates thermal shutdown, current limiting (0.8–1.05A), and active output pulldown during disable-enabling safe power sequencing in traction inverters and 2-/3-wheeler drive systems.
Unlike legacy variants, this "new chip" version features soft-start for controlled inrush current, improved line regulation (0.01%/V), lower quiescent current (65μA at zero load), and reduced thermal resistance (RθJA = 178.6°C/W), making it suitable for space-constrained automotive modules operating continuously at junction temperatures up to 150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.6V ±1.5% (typical); meets tight supply requirements of automotive MCUs and CAN transceivers. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA continuous; supports dual-core microcontrollers and sensor signal chains without external boost. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 10V; accommodates wide automotive battery transients including cold-crank (6.5V min) and load-dump (up to 10V). |
| Dropout Voltage | 175mV (typical at 150mA); enables stable 1.6V output even when VIN drops to 1.775V-critical for start-stop systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 65μA (typical at IOUT = 0mA); extends battery life in always-on vehicle modules like telematics and body controllers. |
| Operating Junction Temp | –40°C to +150°C; qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and powertrain applications. |
| ESD Rating | CDM Level C4 (±1000V); ensures robustness against assembly-line electrostatic discharge events. |
Pinout & Package
TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package measuring 2.9mm × 2.8mm, optimized for high-density automotive PCBs with RθJA = 178.6°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (Pin 1) | Input supply | Accepts 2.7V–10V; requires ≥0.47µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient response. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Ground reference | Low-impedance return path; must be connected directly to system ground plane to minimize noise coupling. |
| EN (Pin 3) | Enable control | Active-high logic input (VIH = 0.85V min); ties to VIN if unused; enables <1μA standby mode when pulled low. |
| NC (Pin 4) | No connection | Not bonded internally; left unconnected-no feedback network required for fixed-output configuration. |
| OUT (Pin 5) | Regulated output | Delivers 1.6V ±1.5%; requires ≥1µF (min) ceramic capacitor with ESR ≤1Ω for stability and load transient suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Active over-shoot pulldown | Internally discharges OUT during disable to prevent bus contention in multi-rail systems-eliminates need for external pulldown resistors. |
| Soft-start circuit | Controls inrush current during power-up, reducing required input capacitance and preventing upstream supply sag in shared rail designs. |
| Logic-enabled sleep mode | Reduces quiescent current to ≤1μA at TJ = 25°C, enabling ultra-low-power operation in always-on vehicle subsystems. |
| Thermal & overcurrent protection | Auto-recovering shutdown prevents damage during sustained overload or ambient temperature excursions beyond 150°C. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive use across –40°C to +150°C TJ, including HBM ±2000V and CDM ±1000V ESD stress testing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS76316QDBVRQ1 | Same silicon, identical electrical specs, but shipped in standard tape-and-reel (no G4 suffix); no functional difference. | No application difference-identical thermal, electrical, and mechanical behavior in all automotive use cases. | Select TPS76316QDBVRQ1 only if packaging logistics or legacy BOM alignment require non-G4 variant. |
| TLV76316QDBVRQ1 | Lower IQ (40μA vs 65μA), same 150mA rating and 1.6V output, but rated only to 125°C TJ (not 150°C) and lacks AEC-Q100 Grade 1 certification. | Not suitable for under-hood or powertrain locations requiring full Grade 1 qualification; limited to cabin or chassis modules. | Choose TLV76316QDBVRQ1 only for cost-sensitive, non-critical cabin applications where 125°C max TJ suffices. |
Compared with TPS76316QDBVRQ1 (same die, different packaging), TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 offers identical performance but with TI's enhanced green packaging (lead-free, RoHS-compliant marking). Versus TLV76316QDBVRQ1, it provides guaranteed 150°C operation and full AEC-Q100 Grade 1 compliance-essential for traction and battery-system deployment.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1?
The TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 has an absolute maximum input voltage of 18V for the new-chip revision, though its recommended operating range is 2.7V to 10V. This 18V rating provides margin against automotive load-dump transients, ensuring robust operation without external clamping in most 12V/48V systems. Always verify layout and capacitor derating per TI's SGLS247C datasheet Section 5.1.
Does the TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 require an external feedback resistor network?
No, the TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 is a fixed-output 1.6V regulator and does not require external feedback resistors. Pin 4 is labeled NC (no connection) in the datasheet, confirming internal resistor trimming. External resistors are only needed for adjustable versions like TPS76333QDBVRG4Q1-using them with TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 would cause malfunction.
What is the minimum output capacitance required for stable operation of the TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1?
The TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 requires a minimum output capacitance of 1µF with ESR ≤1Ω for stable operation. TI recommends 2.2µF ceramic (X7R or better) as typical design practice. The device supports zero-ESR capacitors and is compatible with multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), enabling compact, low-profile layouts in automotive modules where board space is constrained.
How does the enable (EN) pin function on the TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1?
The EN pin on the TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 is active-high with VIH(min) = 0.85V and VIL(max) = 0.72V. Driving EN ≥0.85V enables regulation; pulling EN ≤0.15V disables the output and reduces quiescent current to ≤1μA. If unused, EN must be tied to VIN-not left floating-to ensure reliable startup and avoid erratic behavior during power sequencing.
Is the TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1 pin-compatible with other members of the TPS763xx-Q1 family?
Yes, all TPS763xx-Q1 devices-including TPS76316QDBVRG4Q1, TPS76333QDBVRG4Q1, and TPS76350QDBVRG4Q1-share identical 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) pinout and footprint. This enables drop-in replacement across output voltages without PCB redesign, provided thermal and capacitor requirements are verified for each specific variant's load and transient profile.
