Product details
Overview
TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive-grade adjustable-output LDO regulator with integrated watchdog timer, power-on reset, and fault protection. It delivers up to 300 mA at 2.5–7 V output (programmable via FB pin), supports 7–40 V input, features 35 µA typical quiescent current, and operates from –40°C to 150°C junction temperature - used in automotive head units and center displays for stable low-power MCU supply.
For engineers reviewing the TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 datasheet, TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 pinout, TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 application, or TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed automotive-grade specifications, and real-world design implications - including watchdog window programmability via ROSC, reset delay tuning via CDLY, and fault-flag behavior specific to the TPS7A63-Q1 family variant.
Technical Context
The TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 implements a monolithic PMOS pass transistor architecture with internal charge pump enabling operation down to 7 V input while maintaining regulation during cold-crank transients. Its integrated watchdog uses an external resistor on ROSC to set window duration (10 ms to 254 ms), and its open-drain nRST output is programmable via CDLY capacitor (100 pF–100 nF) with deglitch filtering (5.5 µs).
It integrates UVLO (3.16 V turn-off, 3.45 V turn-on), thermal shutdown (165°C trip, 10°C hysteresis), short-circuit/overcurrent protection (350–1000 mA limit), and low-ESR ceramic capacitor stability. The FB pin enables precise output voltage setting using R1/R2 resistive divider referenced to 1.23 V internal bandgap.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 300 mA max continuous - sufficient for powering automotive MCUs, CAN transceivers, and display controllers without external boost stages. |
| Input Voltage Range | 7 V to 40 V - supports 12 V/24 V automotive systems and withstands 45 V load-dump transients per ISO 7637-2. |
| Quiescent Current | 35 µA typical at light load - enables always-on subsystems (e.g., body control modules) to meet <100 µA sleep budget. |
| Dropout Voltage | 300 mV at 150 mA - allows operation with minimal VIN–VOUT margin, reducing heat dissipation in high-temperature under-hood environments. |
| Watchdog Window | Programmable 10 ms to 254 ms via ROSC resistor - configurable for microcontroller firmware execution timing without requiring external timer ICs. |
| Reset Delay | Programmable 300 µs to 300 ms via CDLY capacitor - ensures reliable power sequencing for processors before release of nRST signal. |
| Operating Junction Temp | –40°C to 150°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for engine bay and infotainment applications. |
Pinout & Package
TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 is packaged in a thermally enhanced 14-pin HTSSOP (PWP) with PowerPAD, measuring 5.00 mm × 4.40 mm, optimized for automotive PCB layouts requiring high thermal reliability and compact footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Unregulated input supply | Accepts 7–40 V; includes 45 V transient tolerance and internal UVLO (3.16 V off / 3.45 V on). |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Adjustable 2.5–7 V via FB pin; stable with low-ESR ceramic capacitors ≥1 µF. |
| EN | Enable control input | High-voltage-tolerant (up to 40 V); internal pulldown keeps device disabled if floating. |
| nRST | Open-drain reset output | Asserts low when VOUT falls below 93% of target; requires external pull-up to VOUT. |
| FB | Feedback input | Connects to R1/R2 divider to set output; references 1.23 V internal bandgap for precision adjustment. |
| RDELAY | Reset delay timer output | Sinks 0.75–1.25 µA to charge CDLY; sets POR delay time (tPOR = CDLY × 1.1 × 10⁶ s/F). |
| ROSC | Oscillator frequency control | Connects to ground via resistor to program watchdog window (tWD ≈ 10 ms × ROSC/10 kΩ). |
| WD | Watchdog service input | Active-high pulse (>1.65 µs wide) resets watchdog timer; must be serviced within programmed window. |
| nWD_EN | Watchdog enable/disable | Active-low; pulling high disables watchdog; internal pulldown enables it by default. |
| WD_FLT | Watchdog fault output | Active-low open-drain flag indicating un-serviced watchdog timeout; requires external pull-up. |
| GND | Signal ground reference | Common return path for all analog and digital circuitry; connects to exposed PowerPAD for thermal conduction. |
| CIN / COUT / CDLY | External capacitor connections | Not pins - require external 1 µF+ CIN, 10 µF+ COUT (low-ESR ceramic), and 100 pF–100 nF CDLY. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated watchdog with programmable window | Enables fail-safe MCU supervision without external timing components - ROSC resistor directly sets timeout duration. |
| Programmable power-on reset delay | CDLY capacitor selects tPOR from 300 µs to 300 ms, ensuring deterministic boot timing for automotive processors. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for –40°C to 125°C ambient (–40°C to 150°C junction), meeting stringent automotive reliability and lifetime requirements. |
| Low-ESR ceramic capacitor stability | Eliminates need for costly tantalum or aluminum electrolytic output caps - reduces BOM cost and improves long-term reliability. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | Shuts down at 165°C and re-enables only after cooling to 155°C, preventing thermal cycling damage in enclosed enclosures. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar automotive LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7B6750QDDARQ1 | Fixed 5 V output; no FB pin; lower IQ (25 µA); no watchdog; 450 mA output | Lacks programmability and supervision - suitable only where fixed output and basic reset suffice | Select when watchdog and adjustable output are unnecessary and higher output current is required |
| TLV73333PDBVR | Non-automotive; 3.3 V fixed; 300 mA; 65 µA IQ; no watchdog/reset; SOT-23-5 package | Not AEC-Q100 qualified; lacks fault signaling and thermal robustness for under-hood use | Consider only for non-safety-critical, cost-sensitive consumer-grade designs outside automotive |
Compared with TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1, TPS7B6750QDDARQ1 offers higher current but omits programmability and supervision, while TLV73333PDBVR lacks automotive qualification and fault features - making TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 uniquely suited for safety-aware, adjustable-rail automotive subsystems requiring integrated monitoring.

FAQ
What output voltage range does the TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 support?
The TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 supports an adjustable output voltage range of 2.5 V to 7 V, set externally via resistive divider connected to the FB pin. Its internal 1.23 V reference enables precise programming, and the datasheet confirms ±2% output accuracy over load, line, and temperature for properly designed feedback networks.
Does the TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 include watchdog functionality, and how is it configured?
Yes, the TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 includes a programmable window watchdog. It is configured using an external resistor (ROSC) connected between the ROSC pin and GND - values from 10 kΩ to 200 kΩ set the watchdog window from 10 ms to 200 ms. The nWD_EN pin allows active disabling, and WD_FLT provides active-low fault indication upon timeout.
What is the maximum input voltage and transient tolerance for the TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1?
The TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 has a recommended operating input voltage range of 7 V to 40 V, with absolute maximum rating of 45 V for transients per ISO 7637-2. This makes it suitable for 12 V and 24 V automotive systems, including handling load-dump events without external clamping circuitry.
How is the power-on reset delay programmed on the TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1?
The power-on reset delay (tPOR) is programmed using an external capacitor (CDLY) connected between the RDELAY pin and GND. With CDLY values from 100 pF to 100 nF, tPOR ranges from 300 µs to 300 ms. The internal current source (0.75–1.25 µA) charges CDLY to a threshold, triggering nRST assertion after the delay elapses.
Is the TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 AEC-Q100 qualified, and what grade does it meet?
Yes, the TPS7A6301QPWPRQ1 is AEC-Q100 qualified and meets Grade 1 requirements: operating ambient temperature from –40°C to 125°C and junction temperature from –40°C to 150°C. This qualification covers stress testing for reliability, ESD, thermal cycling, and lifetime performance in automotive environments.
