Product details
Overview
TPS79933DRVTG4 from Texas Instruments is a 200-mA, low-quiescent-current, ultralow-noise, high-PSRR low-dropout linear regulator with fixed 3.3-V output, EN control, and inrush current protection. It delivers 2% overall accuracy across load, line, and temperature (–40°C to +125°C), achieves 100-mV dropout at 200 mA, and operates stably with ≥2-μF ceramic output capacitance - ideal for powering RF VCOs and precision analog circuitry in space-constrained portable devices.
For engineers reviewing the TPS79933DRVTG4 datasheet, TPS79933DRVTG4 pinout, TPS79933DRVTG4 application, or TPS79933DRVTG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40-μA quiescent current, 66-dB PSRR at 1 kHz, 10.5 × VOUT μVRMS output noise (with CNR), thermal shutdown at 165°C, and compatibility with 0.97-mm × 1.34-mm DSBGA packaging.
Technical Context
The TPS79933DRVTG4 employs a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout (100 mV @ 200 mA) and high PSRR via a high-gain, high-bandwidth error amplifier. Its noise-reduction (NR) pin bypasses bandgap reference noise using an external capacitor, reducing total output noise to 10.5 × VOUT μVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz).
It integrates inrush current limiting activated on EN toggle, overshoot detection with active pulldown (~350 Ω to GND), undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 70-mV hysteresis, and thermal shutdown (165°C trip, 145°C reset). The device is fully specified over –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and requires no minimum load for stability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±2% over full load, line, and temperature range |
| Max Output Current | 200 mA continuous; internal current limit protects against sustained overload |
| Quiescent Current | 40 μA typical - enables battery-powered operation with multi-week standby life |
| Dropout Voltage | 100 mV at 200 mA - supports operation with only 3.4 V input for 3.3 V output |
| PSRR | 66 dB at 1 kHz, 51 dB at 10 kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters |
| Output Noise | 10.5 × VOUT μVRMS (34.7 μVRMS at 3.3 V) with 0.01-μF NR capacitor - suitable for RF VCO biasing |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C junction - qualified for automotive cabin and industrial edge applications |
Pinout & Package
TPS79933DRVTG4 is packaged in a 5-bump, thin, 0.97-mm × 1.34-mm DSBGA (YZU package), optimized for ultra-compact PCB layouts in wearable and mobile RF modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Input supply | Accepts 2.7 V to 6.5 V; must exceed VOUT + VDO (≥3.4 V for 3.3 V output) |
| GND | Ground | Primary ground connection; DSBGA thermal pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane |
| EN | Enable input | Active-high logic control; drives high (>1.2 V) to enable, low (<0.4 V) to shut down (150 nA IQ) |
| NR | Noise reduction | Connects to 0.01-μF ceramic capacitor to bypass bandgap noise and reduce output noise by >85% |
| OUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable 3.3 V; requires ≥2-μF ceramic capacitor (X5R/X7R) to ground for stability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inrush current protection | Immediate current limiting on EN toggle start-up prevents input rail sag and system brownout |
| Overshoot detection & pulldown | Active ~350-Ω pulldown engages if output exceeds nominal by >5%, suppressing transient overshoot |
| Stability with low-ESR ceramics | Guaranteed stable with ≥2-μF X5R/X7R capacitors (ESR < 1.0 Ω) - eliminates need for tantalum or polymer |
| Ultra-low noise architecture | NR pin + 0.01-μF capacitor reduces integrated noise to 10.5 × VOUT μVRMS - critical for VCO phase noise |
| High-accuracy feedback loop | Precision 1.193-V internal reference and tight tolerance error amplifier deliver ±2% total output accuracy |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS79933DRVR | Same silicon, identical electrical specs; differs only in tape-and-reel packaging (DRVR = 3,000-unit reel, DRVTG4 = 250-unit tape) | No functional difference; both support same PCB layout and thermal design | Select DRVR for high-volume production; DRVTG4 for prototyping or low-MOQ builds |
| MCP1703T-3302E/MB | 250-mA output, 1.8-μA IQ, 60-dB PSRR @ 1 kHz, 30-μVRMS noise - higher IQ but lower noise suppression than TPS79933DRVTG4 | Better suited for ultra-low-power always-on sensing nodes; less effective for RF-sensitive loads | Choose MCP1703T-3302E/MB when sub-2-μA quiescent current outweighs PSRR/noise requirements |
Compared with TPS79933DRVR and MCP1703T-3302E/MB, the TPS79933DRVTG4 offers superior PSRR (66 dB vs. 60 dB) and lower output noise (34.7 μVRMS vs. 30 μVRMS), making it optimal for RF and precision analog applications where supply ripple rejection is critical - while maintaining identical pinout and footprint with DRVR.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the TPS79933DRVTG4?
The TPS79933DRVTG4 has an absolute maximum input voltage of 7.0 V. However, its recommended operating input voltage range is 2.7 V to 6.5 V. Operation above 6.5 V risks exceeding absolute maximum ratings and may cause permanent damage. For reliable 3.3-V output, minimum input must be ≥3.4 V (VOUT + VDO) under full 200-mA load.
Does the TPS79933DRVTG4 require an external noise-reduction capacitor to achieve its specified output noise?
Yes - the TPS79933DRVTG4 achieves its 10.5 × VOUT μVRMS (34.7 μVRMS) output noise specification only when a 0.01-μF ceramic capacitor is connected to the NR pin. Without this capacitor, output noise rises to 94 × VOUT μVRMS (≈310 μVRMS), degrading RF performance. The NR capacitor must be low-leakage (e.g., X7R ceramic) and placed close to the NR pin.
Can the TPS79933DRVTG4 be used without connecting the EN pin?
Yes - the EN pin can be tied directly to IN to permanently enable the TPS79933DRVTG4. This configuration eliminates external control but retains all other functionality including inrush protection and thermal shutdown. When unused, EN must not float; connecting it to IN ensures predictable startup and avoids undefined behavior.
What is the thermal performance of the TPS79933DRVTG4 in its DSBGA package?
The TPS79933DRVTG4 in the YZU DSBGA package has a junction-to-board thermal resistance (RθJB) of 84.7°C/W and junction-to-ambient (RθJA) of 143.3°C/W. With proper PCB copper pour under the thermal pad, it sustains 200-mA output at +85°C ambient without thermal shutdown. Derating is required above 100°C ambient to maintain TJ ≤ +125°C.
Is the TPS79933DRVTG4 compatible with ceramic output capacitors smaller than 2.2 μF?
No - the TPS79933DRVTG4 is only guaranteed stable with output capacitance ≥2.2 μF (ceramic, X5R/X7R, ESR < 1.0 Ω). Using smaller values risks oscillation or poor transient response. TI's datasheet explicitly specifies 2.2 μF as the minimum; 4.7 μF or 10 μF improves load transient undershoot but does not harm stability.
