What are the key features of TLV70012DSET?
- 175 mV maximum dropout voltage at 200 mA enables efficient regulation from lithium-ion battery supplies down to 1.375 V, extending device runtime
- Ultra-low quiescent current design minimizes standby power consumption in always-on IoT sensors and wearable devices operating from coin cells
- Fixed 1.2 V output in a 6-pin SOT-23 package with 2 V to 5.5 V input simplifies BOM and layout for core voltage rails in portable SoC designs
What is TLV70012DSET used for?
TLV70012DSET provides regulated 1.2 V core power to low-power microcontrollers, Bluetooth SoCs, and IoT sensor modules operating from 3.7 V lithium-ion or 3 V primary batteries in wearables and asset trackers. Its low dropout of 175 mV at 200 mA ensures continuous regulation even as the battery voltage approaches the cutoff threshold, maximizing usable battery capacity. The compact SOT-23 footprint also suits space-constrained medical patches, hearing aids, and miniature wireless sensor nodes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does TLV70012DSET's 175 mV dropout voltage extend battery life in a coin-cell powered sensor node?
TLV70012DSET's 175 mV maximum dropout voltage at 200 mA means the regulator maintains a regulated 1.2 V output until the supply drops to 1.375 V, compared to 1.5 V for a 300 mV dropout competitor. For a CR2032 coin cell with a 2.0 V nominal to 2.4 V initial range, this 125 mV improvement recovers approximately 15% to 20% more usable charge from cells that discharge to 1.5 V end voltage, extending sensor node lifetime by weeks in a 1 µA average current application.
What input voltage range does TLV70012DSET support, and how does it handle a 5 V USB supply without damage?
TLV70012DSET accepts input voltages from 2 V to 5.5 V continuously, with an absolute maximum input of 6 V. When connected directly to a standard 5 V USB supply that can spike to 5.25 V under transient conditions, the regulator remains within its safe operating range as the 6 V absolute maximum provides a 750 mV margin. No external clamp is required, simplifying the power input filter to a single 100 nF to 1 µF bypass capacitor at the input pin.
For a 200 mA Bluetooth SoC rail, how does TLV70012DSET in a 6-pin SOT-23 package compare to a larger WSON LDO?
TLV70012DSET's 6-pin SOT-23 occupies approximately 8.7 mm² versus 4 mm² for a WSON-6 footprint, but the SOT-23 package can be hand-soldered during prototype assembly and is compatible with standard pick-and-place machines without special nozzles. For a 200 mA Bluetooth SoC rail at 1.2 V, the 175 mV dropout leaves a 1.825 V headroom from a 2 V minimum supply, meeting the typical SoC startup minimum of 1.15 V with a 50 mV margin at end-of-battery.
