DESCRIPTION

Stable with No Output Capacitor or Any Value
The TPS731xx family of low-dropout (LDO) linear
or Type of Capacitor
voltage regulators uses a new topology: an NMOS
pass element in a voltage-follower configuration. This
Input Voltage Range of 1.7V to 5.5V
topology is stable using output capacitors with low
Ultralow Dropout Voltage: 30mV Typ
ESR, and even allows operation without a capacitor.
Excellent Load Transient Response—with or
It also provides high reverse blockage (low reverse
without Optional Output Capacitor
current) and ground pin current that is nearly constant
over all values of output current.
New NMOS Topology Provides Low Reverse
Leakage Current
The TPS731xx uses an advanced BiCMOS process
to yield high precision while delivering very low
