Product details
Overview
TPS7A0528PDBZT from Texas Instruments is a 200-mA, ultralow-quiescent-current LDO regulator with 1-µA typical IQ, 2.8-V fixed output, 1% typical accuracy, and 235-mV max dropout at 200 mA - designed for battery-powered wearables, always-on subsystems, and portable electronics requiring extended runtime.
For engineers reviewing the TPS7A0528PDBZT datasheet, TPS7A0528PDBZT pinout, TPS7A0528PDBZT application, or TPS7A0528PDBZT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.4–5.5-V input range, active output discharge, foldback current limiting, stability with ≥0.47-µF ceramic output capacitor, and operation across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The TPS7A0528PDBZT implements a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low quiescent current (1 µA typ) while maintaining fast transient response and low dropout voltage. Its enable-controlled shutdown reduces leakage to ≤300 nA, and integrated UVLO (1.3 V threshold, 40-mV hysteresis) prevents erratic startup under weak input sources.
It features an active pulldown circuit for rapid output discharge when disabled, foldback current limiting to limit power dissipation during overload, and thermal shutdown at 160°C with 20°C hysteresis. The device is stable with small ceramic capacitors and requires no external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.8 V ±1% (typ), ensuring precise biasing for 2.8-V logic or analog rails without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 200 mA continuous, supporting moderate-power microcontrollers, sensors, or RF front-ends in compact systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 1 µA typical at light load, extending battery life in multi-year IoT endpoints and always-on wake-up circuits. |
| Dropout Voltage | 235 mV maximum at 200 mA (for 2.8-V output), enabling regulation from 3.035-V sources like single Li-MnO₂ or two alkaline cells. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.4 V to 5.5 V, compatible with Li-ion, Li-SOCl₂, Li-MnO₂, and 2–3-cell alkaline batteries without pre-regulation. |
| Accuracy Over Temp | ±3% maximum from –40°C to +125°C, meeting industrial-grade voltage reference requirements for sensor signal chains. |
| Enable Threshold | VEN(HI) = 0.9 V min, allowing direct interface with low-voltage GPIOs (e.g., 1.8-V or 2.5-V I/O domains). |
Pinout & Package
TPS7A0528PDBZT uses the SOT-23 (3-pin) package (2.90 mm × 1.60 mm), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts. Pin 1 = IN, Pin 2 = GND, Pin 3 = OUT. No EN or NC pins - enable functionality is omitted in this variant, simplifying routing and reducing BOM count.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Input supply connection | Accepts 1.4–5.5 V; requires ≥1-µF ceramic capacitor to ground for stability and transient suppression. |
| GND | Power ground reference | Must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane; serves as return path for all internal currents. |
| OUT | Regulated output | Delivers stable 2.8 V; requires ≥0.47-µF ceramic capacitor to ground for loop stability and load-transient response. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow IQ | 1 µA typical quiescent current enables >10-year battery life in 10-µA average-load applications (e.g., BLE beacon sleep mode). |
| Active Output Discharge | Integrated pulldown resistor (120 Ω typ) discharges output to <0.1 V within 100 µs after disable - critical for safe power sequencing. |
| Foldback Current Limit | Reduces short-circuit current to ~150 mA at VOUT = 0 V, limiting thermal stress and enabling self-recovery without latch-off. |
| Wide Input Range | Operates down to 1.4 V input, supporting direct regulation from aging primary lithium or partially discharged alkaline cells. |
| High Temp Rating | Specified from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature, suitable for automotive cabin modules and industrial edge sensors. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7A0528PDQNR | Same electrical specs but in 1.0-mm × 1.0-mm X2SON-4 package with EN pin; adds enable control and smaller footprint. | Required where programmable enable or PCB area reduction is critical; not pin-compatible due to different pin count and layout. | Select PDQNR if system-level power sequencing or space constraints demand EN functionality and miniaturization. |
| MCP1700T-2802E/TT | 200-mA, 2.8-V LDO with 1.6-µA IQ (typ), but higher 600-mV dropout at 200 mA and no active discharge. | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer devices where fast output discharge is unnecessary and input voltage margin is ample. | Choose MCP1700T-2802E/TT only when dropout headroom exceeds 600 mV and active discharge is not required. |
Compared with TPS7A0528PDBZT, the PDQNR offers enable control and smaller size but requires PCB redesign, while the MCP1700T-2802E/TT trades off higher dropout and no pulldown for lower unit cost - making TPS7A0528PDBZT optimal for space- and battery-life-critical designs needing guaranteed fast discharge.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for the TPS7A0528PDBZT?
The TPS7A0528PDBZT supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 6.0 V, but its recommended operating range is 1.4 V to 5.5 V. Exceeding 5.5 V may trigger internal protection or degrade reliability; sustained operation above 6.0 V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does the TPS7A0528PDBZT include an enable pin?
No, the TPS7A0528PDBZT (SOT-23-3 package) does not include an enable pin. It is a simple three-terminal LDO: IN, GND, and OUT. Enable functionality is present only in variants like TPS7A0528PDQNR (X2SON-4) or TPS7A0528DBVR (SOT-23-5).
What output capacitor value is required for stability with the TPS7A0528PDBZT?
The TPS7A0528PDBZT is stable with a minimum 0.47-µF ceramic output capacitor (X5R or X7R dielectric). Using ≥1 µF improves transient response and PSRR; tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors are not recommended due to ESR and reliability concerns.
Can the TPS7A0528PDBZT operate from a single alkaline cell?
Yes - the TPS7A0528PDBZT operates down to 1.4 V input, making it compatible with a single fresh alkaline cell (1.5–1.6 V) and functional until the cell discharges to ~1.4 V, delivering regulated 2.8 V output throughout that range when paired with sufficient headroom.
Is the TPS7A0528PDBZT RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the TPS7A0528PDBZT is RoHS-compliant and lead-free per TI's official packaging documentation. It meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) and is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering profiles up to 260°C peak temperature.
