Product Overview
The TPS73701DCQR is a 1 A ultra-low-dropout voltage regulator from Texas Instruments with adjustable output and reverse current protection. Packaged in a 6-pin SOT-223 (DCQ), it operates from 2.2 V to 5.5 V input and provides very low dropout voltage with an NMOS pass transistor. The device features reverse current protection that blocks current flow from the output back to the input, and an enable pin for power sequencing control.
