3 Description
The TPS748 low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator
provides an easy-to-use robust power management
solution for a wide variety of applications. User-
programmable soft-start minimizes stress on the input
power source by reducing capacitive inrush current
on start-up. The soft-start is monotonic and well-
suited for powering many different types of
processors and ASICs. The enable input and power
good output allow easy sequencing with external
regulators. This complete flexibility permits the user to
configure a solution that meets the sequencing
requirements of FPGAs, DSPs, and other
applications with special start-up requirements.
A precision reference and error amplifier deliver 2%
accuracy over load, line, temperature, and process.
The device is stable with any type of capacitor
greater than or equal to 2.2 μF, and is fully specified
for TJ= –40°C to 125°C. The TPS748 is offered in a
small, 3-mm × 3-mm, VSON-10 package, yielding a
highly compact, total solution size. The device is also
available in a 5 × 5 QFN-20 package for compatibility
with the TPS744.

PIN I/O DESCRIPTION
NAME VSON VQFN
BIAS 4 10 I Bias input voltage for error amplifier, reference, and internal control circuits. A 1-µF or
larger input capacitor is recommended for optimal performance. If IN is connected to
BIAS, a 4.7-µF or larger capacitor must be used.
EN 5 11 I Enable pin. Driving this pin high enables the regulator. Driving this pin low puts the
regulator into shutdown mode. This pin must not be left unconnected.
FB 8 16 I Feedback pin. The feedback connection to the center tap of an external resistor
divider network that sets the output voltage. This pin must not be left floating.
GND 6 12 Ground
IN 1, 2 5-8 I Input to the device. A 1-µF or larger input capacitor is recommended for optimal
performance.
NC N/A 2-4, 13, 14,
17 No connection. This pin can be left floating or connected to GND to allow better
thermal contact to the top-side plane.
OUT 9, 10 1, 18-20 O Regulated output voltage. A small capacitor (total typical capacitance 2.2 μF,
ceramic) is needed from this pin to ground to assure stability.
PG 3 9 O
Power Good pin. An open-drain, active-high output that indicates the status of VOUT.
When VOUT exceeds the PG trip threshold, the PG pin goes into a high-impedance
state. When VOUT is below this threshold the pin is driven to a low-impedance state. A
pull-up resistor from 10 kto 1 Mshould be connected from this pin to a supply of
up to 5.5 V. The supply can be higher than the input voltage. Alternatively, the PG pin
can be left unconnected if output monitoring is not necessary.
SS 7 15 Soft-Start pin. A capacitor connected on this pin to ground sets the start-up time. If this
pin is left unconnected, the regulator output soft-start ramp time is typically 200 μs.
Thermal pad Must be soldered to the ground plane for increased thermal performance. Internally
connected to ground.

(1) For more information about traditional and new thermal metrics, see the Semiconductor and IC Package Thermal Metrics application
report.
(2) Thermal data for the RGW and DRC packages are derived by thermal simulations based on JEDEC-standard methodology as specified
in the JESD51 series. The following assumptions are used in the simulations:
(a) i. RGW: The exposed pad is connected to the PCB ground layer through a 4x4 thermal via array.
.ii. DRC: The exposed pad is connected to the PCB ground layer through a 3x2 thermal via array.
(b) i. RGW: Each of top and bottom copper layers has a dedicated pattern for 20% copper coverage.
.ii. DRC: The top and bottom copper layers are assumed to have a 20% thermal conductivity of copper representing a 20% copper
coverage.
(c) These data were generated with only a single device at the center of a JEDEC high-K (2s2p) board with 3in × 3in copper area. To
understand the effects of the copper area on thermal performance, see the Estimating Junction Temperature section of this data
sheet.
(3) The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance under natural convection is obtained in a simulation on a JEDEC-standard, high-K board, as
specified in JESD51-7, in an environment described in JESD51-2a.
(4) The junction-to-case (top) thermal resistance is obtained by simulating a cold plate test on the top of the package. No specific JEDEC-
standard test exists, but a close description can be found in the ANSI SEMI standard G30-88.
(5) The junction-to-board thermal resistance is obtained by simulating in an environment with a ring cold plate fixture to control the PCB
temperature, as described in JESD51-8.
(6) The junction-to-top characterization parameter, ψJT, estimates the junction temperature of a device in a real system and is extracted
from the simulation data to obtain θJA using a procedure described in JESD51-2a (sections 6 and 7).
(7) The junction-to-board characterization parameter, ψJB, estimates the junction temperature of a device in a real system and is extracted
from the simulation data to obtain θJA using a procedure described in JESD51-2a (sections 6 and 7).
(8) The junction-to-case (bottom) thermal resistance is obtained by simulating a cold plate test on the exposed (power) pad. No specific
JEDEC standard test exists, but a close description can be found in the ANSI SEMI standard G30-88.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The TPS74801 belongs to a family of low-dropout regulators that feature soft-start capability. These regulators
use a low current bias input to power all internal control circuitry, allowing the NMOS pass transistor to regulate
very low input and output voltages.
The use of an NMOS-pass FET offers several critical advantages for many applications. Unlike a PMOS topology
device, the output capacitor has little effect on loop stability. This architecture allows the TPS74801 to be stable
with any capacitor type of value 2.2 μF or greater. Transient response is also superior to PMOS topologies,
particularly for low VIN applications.
The TPS74801 features a programmable voltage-controlled soft-start circuit that provides a smooth, monotonic
start-up and limits startup inrush currents that may be caused by large capacitive loads. A power good (PG)
output is available to allow supply monitoring and sequencing of other supplies. An enable (EN) pin with
hysteresis and deglitch allows slow-ramping signals to be used for sequencing the device. The low VIN and VOUT
capability allows for inexpensive, easy-to-design, and efficient linear regulation between the multiple supply
voltages often required by processor-intensive systems.
7.2 Functional Block Diagram
7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Enable/Shutdown
The enable (EN) pin is active high and is compatible with standard digital signaling levels. VEN below 0.4 V turns
the regulator off, while VEN above 1.1 V turns the regulator on. Unlike many regulators, the enable circuitry has
hysteresis and deglitching for use with relatively slowly ramping analog signals. This configuration allows the
TPS748 to be enabled by connecting the output of another supply to the EN pin. The enable circuitry typically
has 50 mV of hysteresis and a deglitch circuit to help avoid on-off cycling as a result of small glitches in the VEN
signal.
The enable threshold is typically 0.8 V and varies with temperature and process variations. Temperature
variation is approximately –1 mV/°C; process variation accounts for most of the rest of the variation to the 0.4-V
and 1.1-V limits. If precise turnon timing is required, a fast rise-time signal must be used to enable the TPS748.

Feature Description (continued)
If not used, EN can be connected to either IN or BIAS. If EN is connected to IN, it should be connected as close
as possible to the largest capacitance on the input to prevent voltage droops on that line from triggering the
enable circuit.
The TPS748 has an internal active pulldown circuit that connects the output to GND through an 833-Ωresistor
when the device is disabled. This resistor discharges the output with a time constant of:
(1)
7.3.2 Power Good
The power good (PG) pin is an open-drain output and can be connected to any 5.5-V or lower rail through an
external pull-up resistor. This pin requires at least 1.1 V on VBIAS in order to have a valid output. The PG output is
high-impedance when VOUT is greater than VIT + VHYS. If VOUT drops below VIT or if VBIAS drops below 1.9 V, the
open-drain output turns on and pulls the PG output low. The PG pin also asserts when the device is disabled.
The recommended operating condition of PG pin sink current is up to 1 mA, so the pull-up resistor for PG should
be in the range of 10 kto 1 M. If output voltage monitoring is not needed, the PG pin can be left floating.
7.3.3 Internal Current Limit
The TPS748 features a factory-trimmed current limit that is flat over temperature and supply voltage. The current
limit allows the device to supply surges of up to 2 A and maintain regulation. The current limit responds in
approximately 10 μs to reduce the current during a short-circuit fault.
The internal current limit protection circuitry of the TPS748 is designed to protect against overload conditions. It
is not intended to allow operation above the rated current of the device. Continuously running the TPS748 above
the rated current degrades device reliability.
7.3.4 Thermal Protection
Thermal protection disables the output when the junction temperature rises to approximately 160°C, allowing the
device to cool. When the junction temperature cools to approximately 140°C, the output circuitry is enabled.
Depending on power dissipation, thermal resistance, and ambient temperature the thermal protection circuit may
cycle on and off. This cycling limits the dissipation of the regulator, protecting it from damage as a result of
overheating.
Activation of the thermal protection circuit indicates excessive power dissipation or inadequate heatsinking. For
reliable operation, junction temperature should be limited to 125°C maximum. To estimate the margin of safety in
a complete design (including heatsink), increase the ambient temperature until thermal protection is triggered;
use worst-case loads and signal conditions. For good reliability, thermal protection should trigger at least 40°C
above the maximum expected ambient condition of the application. This condition produces a worst-case junction
temperature of 125°C at the highest expected ambient temperature and worst-case load.
The internal protection circuitry of the TPS748 is designed to protect against overload conditions. It is not
intended to replace proper heatsinking. Continuously running the TPS748 into thermal shutdown degrades
device reliability.
7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Normal Operation
The device regulates to the nominal output voltage under the following conditions:
The input voltage and bias voltage are both at least at the respective minimum specifications.
The enable voltage has previously exceeded the enable rising threshold voltage and has not decreased
below the enable falling threshold.
The output current is less than the current limit.
The device junction temperature is less than the maximum specified junction temperature.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
7.4.2 Dropout Operation
If the input voltage is lower than the nominal output voltage plus the specified dropout voltage, but all other
conditions are met for normal operation, the device operates in dropout mode. In this condition, the output
voltage is the same as the input voltage minus the dropout voltage. The transient performance of the device is
significantly degraded because the pass device is in a triode state and no longer controls the current through the
LDO. Line or load transients in dropout can result in large output voltage deviations.
7.4.3 Disabled
The device is disabled under the following conditions:
The input or bias voltages are below the respective minimum specifications.
The enable voltage is less than the enable falling threshold voltage or has not yet exceeded the enable rising
threshold.
The device junction temperature is greater than the thermal shutdown temperature.
Table 1 shows the conditions that lead to the different modes of operation.

7.5 Programming
7.5.1 Programmable Soft-Start
The TPS748 features a programmable, monotonic, voltage-controlled soft-start that is set with an external
capacitor (CSS). This feature is important for many applications because it eliminates power-up initialization
problems when powering FPGAs, DSPs, or other processors. The controlled voltage ramp of the output also
reduces peak inrush current during start-up, minimizing start-up transient events to the input power bus.
To achieve a linear and monotonic soft-start, the TPS748 error amplifier tracks the voltage ramp of the external
soft-start capacitor until the voltage exceeds the internal reference. The soft-start ramp time depends on the soft-
start charging current (ISS), soft-start capacitance (CSS), and the internal reference voltage (VREF), and can be
calculated using Equation 2:
(2)
If large output capacitors are used, the device current limit (ICL) and the output capacitor may set the start-up
time. In this case, the start-up time is given by Equation 3:
where
VOUT(nom) is the nominal output voltage,
COUT is the output capacitance, and
ICL(min) is the minimum current limit for the device. (3)
In applications where monotonic startup is required, the soft-start time given by Equation 2 should be set greater
than Equation 3.

Programming (continued)
The maximum recommended soft-start capacitor is 15 nF. Larger soft-start capacitors can be used and do not
damage the device; however, the soft-start capacitor discharge circuit may not be able to fully discharge the soft-
start capacitor when enabled. Soft-start capacitors larger than 15 nF could be a problem in applications where it
is necessary to rapidly pulse the enable pin and still require the device to soft-start from ground. CSS must be
low-leakage; X7R, X5R, or C0G dielectric materials are preferred. Refer to Table 2 for suggested soft-start
capacitor values.
(1) where tSS(s) = soft-start time in seconds.

270 pF 0.5 ms
560 pF 1 ms
2.7 nF 5 ms
5.6 nF 10 ms
10 nF 18 ms
Another option to set the start-up rate is to use a feedforward capacitor; see the Pros and Cons of Using a
Feedforward Capacitor with a Low-Dropout Regulator application report for more information.
7.5.2 Sequencing Requirements
VIN, VBIAS, and VEN can be sequenced in any order without causing damage to the device. However, for the soft-
start function to work as intended, certain sequencing rules must be applied. Connecting EN to IN is acceptable
for most applications, as long as VIN is greater than 1.1 V and the ramp rate of VIN and VBIAS is faster than the
set soft-start ramp rate.
There are several different start-up responses that are possible, but not typical:
If the ramp rate of the input sources is slower than the set soft-start time, the output tracks the slower supply
minus the dropout voltage until it reaches the set output voltage.
If EN is connected to BIAS, the device soft-starts as programmed, provided that VIN is present before VBIAS.
If VBIAS and VEN are present before VIN is applied and the set soft-start time has expired, then VOUT tracks VIN.
If the soft-start time has not expired, the output tracks VIN until VOUT reaches the value set by the charging
soft-start capacitor.
Figure 23 shows the use of an RC-delay circuit to hold off VEN until VBIAS has ramped. This technique can also
be used to drive EN from VIN. An external control signal can also be used to enable the device after VIN and
VBIAS are present.

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The TPS74801 belongs to a family of low-dropout regulators that feature soft-start capability. These regulators
use a low current bias input to power all internal control circuitry, allowing the NMOS pass transistor to regulate
very low input and output voltages.
The use of an NMOS-pass FET offers several critical advantages for many applications. Unlike a PMOS topology
device, the output capacitor has little effect on loop stability. This architecture allows the TPS74801 to be stable
with any capacitor type of value 2.2 μF or greater. Transient response is also superior to PMOS topologies,
particularly for low VIN applications.
The TPS74801 features a programmable voltage-controlled soft-start circuit that provides a smooth, monotonic
start-up and limits startup inrush currents that may be caused by large capacitive loads. A power good (PG)
output is available to allow supply monitoring and sequencing of other supplies. An enable (EN) pin with
hysteresis and deglitch allows slow-ramping signals to be used for sequencing the device. The low VIN and VOUT
capability allows for inexpensive, easy-to-design, and efficient linear regulation between the multiple supply
voltages often required by processor-intensive systems.

NOTE
When VBIAS and VEN are present and VIN is not supplied, this device outputs approximately
50 μA of current from OUT. Although this condition does not cause any damage to the
device, the output current may charge up the OUT node if total resistance between OUT
and GND (including external feedback resistors) is greater than 10 k.
8.1.2 Input, Output, and Bias Capacitor Requirements
The device is designed to be stable for all available types and values of output capacitors 2.2 μF. The device is
also stable with multiple capacitors in parallel, which can be of any type or value.
The capacitance required on the IN and BIAS pins strongly depends on the input supply source impedance. To
counteract any inductance in the input, the minimum recommended capacitor for VIN is 1 μF and minimum
recommended capacitor for VBIAS is 0.1 µF. If VIN and VBIAS are connected to the same supply, the recommended
minimum capacitor for VBIAS is 4.7 μF. Good quality, low ESR capacitors should be used on the input; ceramic
X5R and X7R capacitors are preferred. These capacitors should be placed as close the pins as possible for
optimum performance.
8.1.3 Transient Response
The TPS748 was designed to have excellent transient response for most applications with a small amount of
output capacitance. In some cases, the transient response may be limited by the transient response of the input
supply. This limitation is especially true in applications where the difference between the input and output is less
than 300 mV. In this case, adding additional input capacitance improves the transient response much more than
just adding additional output capacitance would do. With a solid input supply, adding additional output
capacitance reduces undershoot and overshoot during a transient event; refer to Figure 20 in the Typical
Characteristics section. Because the TPS748 is stable with output capacitors as low as 2.2 μF, many
applications may then need very little capacitance at the LDO output. For these applications, local bypass
capacitance for the powered device may be sufficient to meet the transient requirements of the application. This
design reduces the total solution cost by avoiding the need to use expensive, high-value capacitors at the LDO
output.

(1) 3.25 V is a test condition of this device and can be adjusted by referring to Figure 6.
8.1.4 Dropout Voltage
The TPS748 offers very low dropout performance, making it well-suited for high-current, low VIN/low VOUT
applications. The low dropout of the TPS748 allows the device to be used in place of a dc/dc converter and still
achieve good efficiency. Equation 4 provides a quick estimate of the efficiency.
(4)
This efficiency provides designers with the power architecture for their applications to achieve the smallest,
simplest, and lowest cost solutions.
There are two different specifications for dropout voltage with the TPS748. The first specification (see Figure 25)
is referred to as VIN Dropout and is used when an external bias voltage is applied to achieve low dropout. This
specification assumes that VBIAS is at least 3.25 V(1) above VOUT, which is the case for VBIAS when powered by a
5.0-V rail with 5% tolerance and with VOUT = 1.5 V. If VBIAS is higher than VOUT +3.25 V(1), VIN dropout is less
than specified.
The second specification (illustrated in Figure 31) is referred to as VBIAS Dropout and applies to applications
where IN and BIAS are tied together. This option allows the device to be used in applications where an auxiliary
bias voltage is not available or low dropout is not required. Dropout is limited by BIAS in these applications
because VBIAS provides the gate drive to the pass FET; therefore, VBIAS must be 1.6 V above VOUT. Because of
this usage, IN and BIAS tied together become a highly inefficient solution that can consume large amounts of
power. Pay attention not to exceed the power rating of the IC package.
8.1.5 Output Noise
The TPS748 provides low output noise when a soft-start capacitor is used. When the device reaches the end of
the soft-start cycle, the soft-start capacitor serves as a filter for the internal reference. By using a 1-nF soft-start
capacitor, the output noise is reduced by half and is typically 30 μVRMS for a 1.2-V output (10 Hz to 100 kHz).
Further increasing CSS has little effect on noise. Because most of the output noise is generated by the internal
reference, the noise is a function of the set output voltage. The RMS noise with a 1-nF soft-start capacitor is
given in Equation 5:
(5)
The low output noise of the TPS748 makes it a good choice for powering transceivers, PLLs, or other noise-
sensitive circuitry.

8.2 Typical Applications
8.2.1 FPGA I/O Supply at 1.5 V With a Bias Rail
Figure 25. Typical Application of the TPS748 Using an Auxiliary Bias Rail
8.2.1.1 Design Requirements
This application powers the I/O rails of an FPGA , at VOUT(nom) = 1.5 V and IOUT(dc) = 1.5 A. The available external
supply voltages are 1.8 V, 3.3 V and 5 V.
8.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure
First, determine what supplies to use for the input and bias rails. A 1.8-V input can be stepped down to 1.5 V at
1.5 A if an external bias is provided, because the maximum dropout voltage is 165 mV if VBIAS is at least 3.25 V
higher than VOUT. To achieve this voltage step, the bias rail is supplied by the 5-V supply. The approximation in
Equation 4 estimates the efficiency at 83.3%.
The output voltage then must be set to 1.5 V. As Table 3 describes, set R1= 4.12 kΩand R2= 4.75 kΩto obtain
the required output voltage. The minimum capacitor sizing is desired to reduce the total solution size footprint;
refer to Input, Output, and Bias Capacitor Requirements for CIN = 1 µF, CBIAS = 1 µF, and COUT = 2.2 µF. Use
CSS = 1 nF for a typical 1.8-ms start-up time.
Figure 25 shows a simplified version of the final circuit.

Typical Applications (continued)
8.2.2 FPGA I/O Supply at 1.5 V Without a Bias Rail
Figure 31. Typical Application of the TPS748 Without an Auxiliary Bias Rail
8.2.2.1 Design Requirements
The application powers the I/O rails of an FPGA, at VOUT(nom) = 1.5 V and IOUT(max) = 1.5 A. The only available rail
is 3.3 V. The I/O pins are driven for only short durations with a 5% duty cycle, so thermal issues are not a
concern.
8.2.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
There is only one available rail; therefore, the input supply and the bias supply are connected together on the
3.3-V input supply.
The output voltage must be set to 1.5 V. As Table 3 describes, set R1= 4.12 kΩand R2= 4.75 kΩto obtain the
required output voltage. The minimum capacitor sizing is desired to reduce the total solution size footprint; refer
to Input, Output, and Bias Capacitor Requirements for CIN = CBIAS = 4.7 µF, and COUT = 2.2 µF. Use CSS = 1 nF
for a typical 1.8-ms start-up time.
Figure 31 shows the TPS748 configured without a bias rail.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The TPS748 is designed to operate from an input voltage up to 5.5 V, provided the bias rail is at least 1.62 V
higher than the input supply and dropout requirements are met. The bias rail and the input supply should both
provide adequate headroom and current for the device to operate normally. Connect a low output impedance
power supply directly to the IN pin of the TPS748. This supply must have at least 1 μF of capacitance near the IN
pin for optimal performance. A supply with similar requirements must also be connected directly to the bias rail
with a separate 1-μF or larger capacitor. If the IN pin is tied to the bias pin, a minimum 4.7 μF of capacitance is
needed for performance. To increase the overall PSRR of the solution at higher frequencies, use a pi-filter or
ferrite bead before the input capacitor.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
An optimal layout can greatly improve transient performance, PSR, and noise. To minimize the voltage drop on
the input of the device during load transients, the capacitance on IN and BIAS should be connected as close as
possible to the device. This capacitance also minimizes the effects of parasitic inductance and resistance of the
input source and can, therefore, improve stability. To achieve optimal transient performance and accuracy, the
top side of R1in Figure 24 should be connected as close as possible to the load. If BIAS is connected to IN, it is
recommended to connect BIAS as close to the sense point of the input supply as possible. This connection
minimizes the voltage drop on BIAS during transient conditions and can improve the turnon response.
Knowing the device power dissipation and proper sizing of the thermal plane that is connected to the thermal pad
is critical to avoiding thermal shutdown and ensuring reliable operation. Power dissipation of the device depends
on input voltage and load conditions and can be calculated using Equation 6:
(6)
Power dissipation can be minimized and greater efficiency can be achieved by using the lowest possible input
voltage necessary to achieve the required output voltage regulation.
On both the VSON (DRC) and QFN (RGW) packages, the primary conduction path for heat is through the
exposed pad to the printed circuit board (PCB). The pad can be connected to ground or be left floating; however,
it should be attached to an appropriate amount of copper PCB area to ensure the device does not overheat. The
maximum junction-to-ambient thermal resistance depends on the maximum ambient temperature, maximum
device junction temperature, and power dissipation of the device and can be calculated using Equation 7:
(7)
Knowing the maximum RθJA, the minimum amount of PCB copper area needed for appropriate heatsinking can
be estimated using Figure 36.
Note: θJA value at board size of 9 in2(that is, 3 in × 3i n) is a JEDEC standard.
Figure 36. ΘJA vs Board Size
Figure 36 shows the variation of θJA as a function of ground plane copper area in the board. It is intended only as
a guideline to demonstrate the effects of heat spreading in the ground plane and should not be used to estimate
actual thermal performance in real application environments.
NOTE
When the device is mounted on an application PCB, TI strongly recommends using ΨJT
and ΨJB, as explained in Estimating Junction Temperature.

10.3 Estimating Junction Temperature
Using the thermal metrics ΨJT and ΨJB, as shown in the Thermal Information table, the junction temperature can
be estimated with corresponding formulas (given in Equation 8). For backwards compatibility, an older θJC,Top
parameter is listed as well.
(8)
Where PDis the power dissipation shown by Equation 6, TTis the temperature at the center-top of the IC
package, and TBis the PCB temperature measured 1 mm away from the IC package on the PCB surface
(Figure 38).
NOTE
Both TTand TBcan be measured on actual application boards using a thermo-gun (an
infrared thermometer).
For more information about measuring TTand TB, see the Using New Thermal Metrics application note, available
for download at www.ti.com.

Estimating Junction Temperature (continued)
By looking at Figure 39, the new thermal metrics (ΨJT and ΨJB) have very little dependency on board size. That
is, using ΨJT or ΨJB with Equation 8 is a good way to estimate TJby simply measuring TTor TB, regardless of the
application board size.

For a more detailed discussion of why TI does not recommend using θJC(top) to determine thermal characteristics,
see the Using New Thermal Metrics application report, available for download at www.ti.com. For further
information, see the IC Package Thermal Metrics application report, also available on the TI website.

TO ANY OTHER TI INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT, AND NO LICENSE TO ANY TECHNOLOGY OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RIGHT OF TI OR ANY THIRD PARTY IS GRANTED HEREIN, including but not limited to any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
regarding or referencing third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services, or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of TI Resources may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
TI RESOURCES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS. TI DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR
REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS, TITLE, ANY EPIDEMIC FAILURE WARRANTY AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS. TI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR AND SHALL NOT DEFEND OR INDEMNIFY DESIGNER AGAINST ANY CLAIM,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY INFRINGEMENT CLAIM THAT RELATES TO OR IS BASED ON ANY COMBINATION OF
PRODUCTS EVEN IF DESCRIBED IN TI RESOURCES OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT SHALL TI BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTUAL,
DIRECT, SPECIAL, COLLATERAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN
CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF TI RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER TI HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Unless TI has explicitly designated an individual product as meeting the requirements of a particular industry standard (e.g., ISO/TS 16949
and ISO 26262), TI is not responsible for any failure to meet such industry standard requirements.
Where TI specifically promotes products as facilitating functional safety or as compliant with industry functional safety standards, such
products are intended to help enable customers to design and create their own applications that meet applicable functional safety standards
and requirements. Using products in an application does not by itself establish any safety features in the application. Designers must
ensure compliance with safety-related requirements and standards applicable to their applications. Designer may not use any TI products in
life-critical medical equipment unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special contract specifically governing such use.
Life-critical medical equipment is medical equipment where failure of such equipment would cause serious bodily injury or death (e.g., life
support, pacemakers, defibrillators, heart pumps, neurostimulators, and implantables). Such equipment includes, without limitation, all
medical devices identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class III devices and equivalent classifications outside the U.S.
TI may expressly designate certain products as completing a particular qualification (e.g., Q100, Military Grade, or Enhanced Product).
Designers agree that it has the necessary expertise to select the product with the appropriate qualification designation for their applications
and that proper product selection is at Designers’ own risk. Designers are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory
requirements in connection with such selection.
Designer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of Designer’s non-
compliance with the terms and provisions of this Notice.
