DYNAMIC WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 2.7–24 V and the output
current range of 0 mA to 50 mA.
Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible
damage to the EVM. If there are questions concerning the input range, please contact a TI
field representative prior to connecting the input power.
Applyingloadsoutsideofthespecifiedoutputrangemayresultinunintendedoperationand/or
possible permanent damage to the EVM. Please consult the EVM User’s Guide prior to
connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load specification,
please contact a TI field representative.

TPS715xx Family of LDO Regulators
1-2 Introduction
1.1 TPS715xx Family of LDO Regulators
TheTPS715xxfamilyofLDOregulatorsiscomprisedofsmallSOT–223/PICO
packaged regulators capable of delivering 50 mA of output current. Features
of the part include:
-50-mA Low-Dropout Regulator
-24-V Maximum Input Voltage
-Low 4.25-µA Quiescent Current at 50 mA
-5-Pin PICO/SC70 (DCK) Package
-Stable With Any Ceramic Capacitor (>0.47 µF)
-Dropout Voltage Typically 100 mV at 50 mA
-Over Current Limitation
-–40°C to 125°C Operating Junction Temperature Range
1.2 EVM Design Strategy
The purpose of this EVM is to facilitate evaluation of the TPS715xx family of
LDO regulators. Each EVM PCB contains a TPS71533 low dropout linear
regulator as well as supporting passive components. Also, the board’s small
size and side clips facilitate attaching it to other PCBs as a power module.
