Product details
Overview
TPS76927DBVT from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output 2.7V, 100mA low-dropout linear regulator in 5-pin SOT-23 package. It operates from 2.5V to 16V input, delivers ±1.2% output accuracy over load and temperature, features 215mV typical dropout at 100mA, integrated thermal shutdown and overcurrent protection, and supports ≥2.2μF ceramic output capacitance for stability. It powers microcontroller bias rails in HVAC control modules.
For engineers reviewing the TPS76927DBVT datasheet, TPS76927DBVT pinout, TPS76927DBVT application, or TPS76927DBVT equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage range (2.5–16V), output accuracy (±1.2%), PSRR (46dB at 1MHz), soft-start time (750µs), and thermal performance (RθJA = 178.6°C/W).
Technical Context
The TPS76927DBVT implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling low dropout and high PSRR. Its internal soft-start circuit limits inrush current during power-up, reducing required input capacitance. The device uses a precision bandgap reference and error amplifier to maintain tight output regulation across line, load, and temperature variations.
It incorporates undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 2.2V rising threshold and 2.07V falling threshold, plus enable logic with 0.415V low-level and 1.6V high-level thresholds. Thermal shutdown activates at 173°C and resets at 157°C, ensuring safe operation under overload or ambient stress.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.7V ±1.2% over full load (0–100mA) and temperature (–40°C to +125°C) |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 16V - supports direct regulation from 12V industrial rails or battery-backed systems |
| Dropout Voltage | 215mV (typ) at 100mA - enables stable 2.7V output from 2.915V minimum input |
| PSRR | 46dB at 1MHz - attenuates switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters without additional filtering |
| Quiescent Current | 620µA at 100mA load - balances low-noise regulation with efficiency in always-on subsystems |

Pinout & Package
TPS76927DBVT is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package measuring 2.9mm × 2.8mm with RθJA = 178.6°C/W. Pin functions are validated per TI SLVS203F (Jan 2025) datasheet.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 IN | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.5–16V; requires ≥1µF input capacitor placed adjacent to IN/GND pins |
| 2 GND | Power ground reference | Common return path for input, output, and internal circuitry; must be low-impedance |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS76933DBVT | Fixed 3.3V output; identical package, pinout, and electrical specs except VOUT | Used where 3.3V logic rail is required instead of 2.7V; no PCB change needed if output voltage is the only difference | Select when system requires 3.3V instead of 2.7V; same layout, thermal, and decoupling design applies |
| MCP1700T-2702E/TT | 250mA output, 6V max input, 1.8µA quiescent current; SOT-23-3 package (no EN pin) | Lacks enable and thermal shutdown; suited for ultra-low-power, non-safety-critical consumer applications | Choose only for cost-sensitive, low-current (<100mA), low-input-voltage (<6V) designs without fault protection requirements |
Compared with TPS76933DBVT, the TPS76927DBVT offers identical robustness but targets 2.7V logic domains; versus MCP1700T-2702E/TT, it trades higher quiescent current for industrial-grade protection, wider input range, and enable control-critical for automotive and HVAC systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the TPS76927DBVT?
The TPS76927DBVT has an absolute maximum input voltage of 18V, with recommended continuous operation up to 16V. Exceeding 18V risks permanent damage. This 16V operating limit allows direct regulation from 12V industrial rails or battery systems with transient spikes, making the TPS76927DBVT suitable for demanding environments like HVAC control modules where input voltage stability cannot be guaranteed.
Does the TPS76927DBVT require an external feedback resistor network?
No, the TPS76927DBVT is a fixed-output 2.7V regulator and does not require external feedback resistors. Pin 4 (FB/NC) is designated as "No Connection" and must remain unconnected and floating. This simplifies design, reduces BOM count, and eliminates resistor tolerance errors-key advantages for high-volume appliance and industrial control applications where the TPS76927DBVT is commonly deployed.
What is the minimum output capacitance required for stability with the TPS76927DBVT?
The TPS76927DBVT requires a minimum output capacitance of 2.2µF ceramic with ESR ≤3Ω for stable operation. This is lower than legacy LDOs requiring ≥4.7µF, enabling smaller, more reliable, and lower-cost designs. Using a 2.2µF X7R ceramic capacitor placed close to the OUT and GND pins ensures phase margin and transient response meet specifications across –40°C to +125°C, as verified in the TPS76927DBVT datasheet.
How does the enable (EN) pin function on the TPS76927DBVT?
The EN pin on the TPS76927DBVT is active-low: driving it below 0.415V disables the regulator (high-impedance output), while pulling it above 1.6V enables regulation. This allows precise power sequencing and low-power standby modes. With only 0.9µA standby current when EN = VIN, the TPS76927DBVT supports energy-efficient designs such as OBD-II telematics units that must operate for months on vehicle battery power when ignition is off.
Is the TPS76927DBVT pin-compatible with other members of the TPS769 family?
Yes, all TPS769 DBV-packaged variants-including TPS76915DBVT, TPS76925DBVT, TPS76927DBVT, TPS76930DBVT, TPS76933DBVT, and TPS76950DBVT-are pin-compatible in the 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package. They share identical pinout, thermal characteristics (RθJA = 178.6°C/W), and enable/ground/input/output terminal assignments. This enables voltage-scaling flexibility across product families without PCB redesign-e.g., upgrading from TPS76927DBVT to TPS76933DBVT requires only a BOM change.
