Product details
Overview
TPS7A20225PDQNR from Texas Instruments is a 300mA ultra-low-noise, low-IQ, high-PSRR LDO regulator in a 1mm × 1mm X2SON-4 package, delivering 2.25V output with ±1.5% tolerance, 7µVRMS noise (no bypass cap required), and 95dB PSRR at 1kHz-designed for RF power supply filtering in portable medical sensors and IP camera image signal processors.
For engineers reviewing the TPS7A20225PDQNR datasheet, TPS7A20225PDQNR pinout, TPS7A20225PDQNR application, or TPS7A20225PDQNR equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (140mV max at 300mA), smart enable pulldown (500kΩ internal), stability with 1µF ceramic output capacitor, and thermal performance (RθJA = 166.1°C/W) in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The TPS7A20225PDQNR uses a precision bandgap reference and adaptive biasing to maintain ±1.5% output accuracy across –40°C to +125°C, load (1–300mA), and line (1.6–6.0V) variations. Its low-noise architecture eliminates need for external noise-bypass capacitors while sustaining 95dB PSRR at 1kHz under 300mA load.
It integrates an internal soft-start circuit limiting inrush current and features a smart enable input with 500kΩ pulldown resistor-ensuring default disable state when EN floats-and automatic VOUT discharge via 150Ω internal pulldown during shutdown.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.25V fixed; enables direct replacement of 2.2V/2.3V rails without external feedback network. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA; supports moderate-power analog blocks like ADC drivers or RF front-end biasing. |
| Output Noise | 7µVRMS (10Hz–100kHz); meets stringent spectral purity requirements for GHz-range RF receivers. |
| PSRR | 95dB at 1kHz; suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding sensitive analog circuits. |
| Quiescent Current | 6.5µA typical; extends battery life in always-on wearable health monitors and IoT edge nodes. |
| Dropout Voltage | 140mV max at 300mA (VOUT = 3.3V); allows operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0V min) down to 2.39V under full load. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.6V to 6.0V; compatible with wide-input buck regulators and multi-cell battery stacks. |
Pinout & Package
TPS7A20225PDQNR is housed in a 1mm × 1mm, 4-pin X2SON (DQN) package with wettable flank leads for automated optical inspection. Thermal pad (Pin 5) must be connected to GND for optimal thermal performance (RθJB = 110.6°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers stable 2.25V; requires ≥1µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for stability and transient response. |
| 2 (GND) | Power ground | Common return path; must be tied directly to thermal pad and system ground plane to minimize impedance. |
| 3 (EN) | Enable control input | Logic-high (>0.9V) enables regulation; internal 500kΩ pulldown holds OFF if left floating. |
| 4 (IN) | Input supply | Accepts 1.6–6.0V; benefits from local 1µF ceramic capacitor to reduce source impedance and damp ringing. |
| 5 (Thermal Pad) | Thermal conduction path | Exposed copper pad; must be soldered to GND plane for thermal relief-no electrical function beyond thermal management. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Noise-bypass capacitor elimination | 7µVRMS output noise achieved via on-die filtering-reduces BOM count and PCB area by one 10nF–100nF capacitor. |
| Smart enable pulldown | 500kΩ internal EN pulldown ensures safe default-OFF state-removes need for external pull-down resistor in battery-critical systems. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 6.5µA IQ at 6V input enables >10-year shelf life in coin-cell-powered asset trackers. |
| Stability with minimal capacitance | Guaranteed stable with 1µF ceramic output capacitor-supports use of small 0201/0402 MLCCs in ultra-compact layouts. |
| Automatic output discharge | 150Ω internal pulldown discharges VOUT within microseconds after EN deactivation-prevents back-powering of downstream logic. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | IP Network Cameras |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7A20225PDBVR | SOT-23-5 package (2.9mm × 2.8mm); 145mV dropout at 300mA; RθJA = 187.1°C/W. | Better thermal margin in low-airflow industrial enclosures; larger footprint limits ultra-dense layouts. | Select when board-level thermal resistance exceeds 110°C/W and manual rework is preferred over X2SON reflow. |
| MCP1700T-2202E/TT | 250mA max output; 17µVRMS noise; no integrated EN pulldown; requires external 100nF bypass cap. | Limited for RF-sensitive loads; higher noise restricts use to digital I/O or LED biasing-not analog signal chains. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-RF applications where 6.5µA IQ and 7µV noise are not required. |
Compared with TPS7A20225PDBVR and MCP1700T-2202E/TT, the TPS7A20225PDQNR delivers superior noise performance and smallest footprint-critical for miniaturized RF/analog systems-while its smart EN and auto-discharge simplify power sequencing in battery-operated devices.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the TPS7A20225PDQNR?
The TPS7A20225PDQNR delivers up to 300mA of continuous output current while maintaining regulation and specified noise/PSRR performance. Its current limit is 360–730mA depending on output voltage and package; however, sustained operation above 300mA may exceed thermal limits in the 1mm × 1mm X2SON package without adequate PCB copper area.
Does the TPS7A20225PDQNR require an external noise-bypass capacitor?
No, the TPS7A20225PDQNR does not require an external noise-bypass capacitor. Its internal architecture achieves 7µVRMS output noise (10Hz–100kHz) without additional capacitance-verified across temperature and load conditions per SBVS338H datasheet Section 5.5.
What is the purpose of the thermal pad on the TPS7A20225PDQNR package?
The thermal pad (Pin 5) on the TPS7A20225PDQNR's X2SON package serves exclusively for heat dissipation. It must be soldered to a GND-connected copper pour to achieve the rated RθJB = 110.6°C/W; leaving it unconnected increases junction temperature by >30°C at 300mA load.
How does the smart enable pulldown function in the TPS7A20225PDQNR?
The TPS7A20225PDQNR features a 500kΩ internal pulldown resistor on the EN pin, ensuring the device remains disabled when EN is floating. When EN rises above 0.9V, the pulldown disconnects to reduce leakage-eliminating need for external pull-down resistors in battery-sensitive designs.
Can the TPS7A20225PDQNR operate with a 1.6V input supply?
Yes, the TPS7A20225PDQNR supports input voltages from 1.6V to 6.0V. At 1.6V input and 2.25V output, it operates in dropout mode (VIN < VOUT + VDO); quiescent current remains 6.5µA typical, but output regulation is not guaranteed below VIN = VOUT + 140mV.
