7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview

The TLV759P is a next-generation, low-dropout regulator (LDO). This device consumes low quiescent current

and delivers excellent line and load transient performance. These characteristics, combined with low noise and

good PSRR with low dropout voltage, make this device ideal for portable consumer applications.

This regulator offers foldback current limit, shutdown, and thermal protection. The operating junction temperature

for this device is –40°C to +125°C.

7.3 Feature Description

7.3.1 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)

The TLV759P uses an undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit that disables the output until the input voltage is

greater than the rising UVLO voltage (VUVLO). This circuit ensures that the device does not exhibit any

unpredictable behavior when the supply voltage is lower than the operational range of the internal circuitry. When

VIN is less than VUVLO, the output is connected to ground with a pulldown resistor (RPULLDOWN).

7.3.2 Shutdown

The enable pin (EN) is active high. Enable the device by forcing the EN pin to exceed VEN(HI). Turn off the device

by forcing the EN pin to drop below VEN(LO). If shutdown capability is not required, connect EN to IN.

The TLV759P has an internal pulldown MOSFET that connects an RPULLDOWN resistor to ground when the device

is disabled. The discharge time after disabling depends on the output capacitance (COUT) and the load resistance

(RL) in parallel with the pulldown resistor (RPULLDOWN). Equation 1 calculates the time constant:

τ = ( RPULLDOWN × RL) / (RPULLDOWN + RL)
