The TPS76918DBVR is an IC (Integrated Circuit) component developed by Texas Instruments. It is a low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator that provides a regulated output voltage of 1.8 volts. Here are the key features of this component:
1. Power Supply: The TPS76918DBVR operates with a supply voltage in the range of 1.7 to 5.5 volts, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
2. Output Voltage: The IC generates a fixed output voltage of 1.8 volts, which makes it ideal for powering low-voltage microprocessors, microcontrollers, and other digital circuits.
3. Low Dropout Voltage: With an ultra-low dropout voltage of just 40 millivolts at 100 mA load current, the TPS76918DBVR ensures efficient power delivery, even with a small input-output voltage differential.
4. Current Limit and Thermal Protection: It incorporates a built-in current limit and thermal shutdown protection mechanism. This safeguards the IC and the connected components from excessive current draw and overheating, ensuring system reliability
