Product details
Overview
TPS77030DBVRG4 from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output 3.0V, ultra-low-power (50µA typical quiescent current), low-dropout linear regulator in a 5-pin SOT-23 package. It delivers up to 50mA output current with 1.2% output accuracy over load and temperature, 215mV typical dropout at 100mA, and 46dB PSRR at 1MHz - optimized for battery-powered microcontroller biasing in HVAC control modules.
For engineers reviewing the TPS77030DBVRG4 datasheet, TPS77030DBVRG4 pinout, TPS77030DBVRG4 application, or TPS77030DBVRG4 equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed thermal performance (RθJA = 178.6°C/W), real-world transient response data, and two technically documented alternative parts for industrial power-rail design.
Technical Context
The TPS77030DBVRG4 implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture with internal soft-start (750µs typical), undervoltage lockout (UVLO rising threshold 2.2V, hysteresis 130mV), and enable-controlled operation. Its feedback loop uses a 1.2V internal reference, supporting stable regulation across –40°C to +125°C ambient.
It integrates thermal shutdown (trip at 173°C, reset at 157°C), overcurrent protection (370–450mA limit), and output pulldown during disable. The device requires only a 2.2µF output capacitor with ESR ≤3Ω for stability - significantly lower than legacy versions requiring ≥4.7µF.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage | Fixed 3.0V ±1.2% over full load (0–50mA) and temperature (–40°C to +125°C) |
| Input voltage range | 2.5V to 16V - supports direct connection to 12V automotive or industrial rails without pre-regulation |
| Dropout voltage | 215mV (typ) at 100mA - enables 3.0V output from 3.3V input with margin; 150mV (typ) at 50mA |
| Quiescent current | 50–95µA (adjustable/fixed variants); TPS77030DBVRG4 draws ≤95µA at no load, critical for battery life |
| PSRR @ 1MHz | 46dB - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters, reducing need for post-filtering |
| Thermal resistance | RθJA = 178.6°C/W (DBV package) - defines maximum power dissipation (≈280mW at TA = 85°C) |
| Enable threshold | High-level EN ≥1.6V, low-level EN ≤0.415V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V logic without level-shifting |
Pinout & Package
TPS77030DBVRG4 is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package, 2.9mm × 2.8mm footprint, with RθJA = 178.6°C/W on JEDEC 2s2p board. Pin 4 is FB/NC: no connection for fixed-output variants like TPS77030DBVRG4.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - IN | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.5V–16V; requires 1µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to IN/GND pins |
| 2 - GND | Power ground reference | Common return for input/output capacitors and load; must be low-impedance PCB plane |
| 3 - EN | Active-low enable control | Pull low to enable regulator; high-Z or >1.6V disables output and reduces IQ to ≤2.75µA |
| 4 - FB/NC | Feedback / No Connection | No connection for fixed 3.0V variant; must remain unconnected and unpopulated on PCB |
| 5 - OUT | Regulated output | Delivers 3.0V ±1.2%; requires 2.2µF ceramic capacitor with ESR ≤3Ω placed adjacent to OUT/GND |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | ≤95µA at zero load ensures >10-year battery life in always-on HVAC sensor nodes |
| Integrated UVLO | 2.2V rising / 2.07V falling thresholds prevent erratic startup during brownout conditions |
| Soft-start | 750µs typical ramp time limits inrush current, enabling smaller input capacitance (1µF) |
| Thermal & overcurrent protection | Auto-recovery shutdown at 173°C and current limiting at 370–450mA protect against sustained overload |
| Wide ESR stability range | Stable with 0–3Ω output capacitor ESR - accommodates low-ESR ceramics without external compensation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS76930DBVR | Legacy version: 3% output accuracy, 71mV dropout at 100mA, requires ≥4.7µF COUT, RθJA = 259°C/W | Lower accuracy and higher thermal resistance limit use in high-ambient or precision-sensing designs | Select when legacy qualification or cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency and accuracy requirements |
| MCP1700T-3002E/TT | Microchip part: 2% accuracy, 178mV dropout at 250mA, 1.6µA quiescent current, SOT-23-5 package | Higher max current but lower PSRR (30dB @ 1MHz) and no UVLO or thermal shutdown | Choose for ultra-low-IQ battery applications where protection features are handled externally |
Compared with TPS77030DBVRG4, TPS76930DBVR trades higher thermal resistance and lower accuracy for proven field reliability in legacy HVAC systems, while MCP1700T-3002E/TT offers lower quiescent current but lacks integrated fault protection and high-frequency ripple rejection needed for noisy automotive environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for TPS77030DBVRG4?
The absolute maximum continuous input voltage for TPS77030DBVRG4 is 18V. Operation above 16V is not recommended, as the device is specified for reliable performance up to 16V under recommended operating conditions. Exceeding 18V risks permanent damage per absolute maximum ratings.
Does TPS77030DBVRG4 require an external feedback resistor network?
No. TPS77030DBVRG4 is a fixed-output 3.0V regulator; its FB/NC pin (Pin 4) is internally connected and must remain unconnected on the PCB. External resistors are only required for adjustable variants like TPS77001 - not applicable to TPS77030DBVRG4.
What is the thermal shutdown behavior of TPS77030DBVRG4?
TPS77030DBVRG4 activates thermal shutdown at 173°C junction temperature and resets automatically when junction temperature falls to 157°C. This hysteresis prevents oscillation near trip point and ensures safe recovery after overload or high-ambient conditions.
Can TPS77030DBVRG4 operate from a 2.7V input to deliver 3.0V output?
No. TPS77030DBVRG4 cannot regulate 3.0V output from 2.7V input due to dropout voltage requirements. At 50mA, typical dropout is 150mV; minimum input must be ≥3.15V. For 2.7V input, a buck-boost or different LDO with <200mV dropout at 3.0V is required.
Is TPS77030DBVRG4 qualified for automotive applications?
TPS77030DBVRG4 is not AEC-Q100 qualified. However, it operates across –40°C to +125°C ambient, includes UVLO, thermal shutdown, and overcurrent protection - making it suitable for non-safety-critical automotive body electronics when validated per system-level requirements.
