Hi Team,

I am using the TPS7A7401DSDR part for Vin=1.8V & Vout=1V with Bias Voltage of 3.3V, Iload=1A

While checking for the drop out voltage, the condition fails for my case. so what would be the required drop out voltage for Vbias=3.3V

from the graph i could see the drop out voltage value for the Vbias=5V condition, i need to know whether i can use for my requirement.

the below graph shows the drop out voltage more than 750mv, which is not possible for my Vin, Vout range.

the graph values shows 750V in the Y-axis, is it a typing mistake?

Syed,

Yes, the y-axis should be mV not V. Y axis should be from 0 to 1.25V.

From your listed conditions, I believe this should work. You have 0.8V of headroom on VIN which is above the worst case value of 180mV per the datasheet. On Bias, you have 2.3V of headroom, which is also above the worst case of 1.3V from the datasheet EC specs and graphs.

Since VIN and VBIAS are powered from separate supplies in your application, the graphs you shared are the dropout requirements on the bias pin, not the vin pin. The actual dropout requirements for the vin pin can be seen from below graph. Just a reminder this is only true because Vin and Vbias are coming from separate supplies. If Vin and Vbias are tied together, then the graphs you shared would be the dropout requirement for both Vin and Vbias.

Best,
Jaime

Hi Jaime Flores,

the graph you are referring is the Vin drop out voltage for Vbias=5V but in my case the Vbias=3.3V, how to know the Vin drop out voltage for Vbias=3.3V. how to calculate it?

Syed,

Let me ask the team if we have any data on this.

Syed,

Our team believe this should be fine based off of the datasheet graphs.

Best,
