Frequently Asked Questions
What is the output voltage and current rating of the TPS7250QP?
The TPS7250QP provides a fixed 5V output voltage with ±2% accuracy and supports a maximum output current of 250mA (0.25A), making it suitable for low-power embedded and sensor applications.
What input voltage range does the TPS7250QP support?
The TPS7250QP operates with an input voltage range of 5.41V to 10V absolute maximum, with a typical dropout voltage of 0.56V and a maximum dropout of 0.312V under certain conditions, allowing efficient regulation close to the output voltage.
What package does the TPS7250QP come in and is it RoHS compliant?
The TPS7250QP is available in an 8-Pin PDIP (Dual-In-Line Package) through-hole package, ideal for prototyping and industrial boards. It is Pb-free (RoHS compliant) with JESD-609 code e4, confirming lead-free construction.
What are typical applications for the TPS7250QP?
Typical applications include automotive control units, industrial sensor power supplies, embedded microcontroller rails, and legacy through-hole PCB designs requiring a reliable 5V regulated output with low dropout performance.
How does the TPS7250QP compare to adjustable LDO regulators?
Unlike adjustable LDO regulators that require external resistors to set output voltage, the TPS7250QP provides a factory-fixed 5V output, simplifying the BOM and reducing design complexity for applications where a fixed 5V rail is always required.
