TPS71933-33DRVT

The Texas Instruments TPS71933-33DRVT is a positive voltage regulator with a low input voltage range of 1.6V to 20V, making it ideal for applications that need a regulated voltage source with a low minimum input voltage. This regulator features a low shutdown current of 3µA, a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, and a load current of up to 1.5A.

The TPS71933 is a linear voltage regulator. Linear voltage regulators, also known as linear power supplies, work by rectifying the AC fluctuating voltage from a wall outlet and providing a steady DC voltage to the load. The input voltage is regulated by a feedback loop that detects the output voltage and adjusts the internal threshold accordingly. This adjustment process is known as closed loop regulation. The internal circuitry of the TPS71933 uses two linear transistors, a control feedback network, and a voltage divider network to control the output voltage. The current output is then limited by a transistor, which acts as a series pass element that regulates the voltage to the load.

The TPS71933-33DRVT is ideal for applications such as automotive, industrial, and instrumentation systems that require reliable and low power linear voltage regulation. Its small size makes it ideal for portable equipment, and its low operating current makes it suitable for battery-powered applications. The TPS71933 is also resistant to reverse and overload conditions, making it a reliable voltage regulation solution for a variety of different scenarios.

Overall, the TPS71933-33DRVT voltage regulator is a robust and reliable linear voltage regulator that is well-suited for a variety of applications. Its low input voltage, wide operating temperature range, and small size make it an ideal choice for portable and battery-powered applications, while its robust overload protection makes it reliable for various scenarios.
