Output Voltages Greater Than V
REF
For applications requiring an output voltage greater than the internal reference
voltage (V
FB
) of 1.224 V, a standard linear regulator circuit with an external
voltage divider is all that is necessary. The lower section of Figure 1 shows a
generic linear regulator circuit with an input capacitor (C1), output capacitor
(C3), external voltage divider (R3/R4), and the enable circuit with either a
pullup resistor (R1) or pulldown resistor (R2) as required. None of the backside
components are required for this application. If a delayed enabled is desired,
the R1 and R2/C2 component pads can be used for an RC circuit. When using
the TPS76918EVM–127 or the TPS76933EVM–127, the external divider is
not required and R3 is a 0-
Ω
resistor used to connect the sense terminal to V
O
.
When using the TPS76901EVM–127 (adjustable output voltage), it is recom-
mended that the divider current (I
REF
) be set to 7
µ
A. Choosing R4 to be
169 k
Ω
and calculating R3 for V
O
accomplishes this.

Lower value resistors can be used but are not as power efficient. Higher value
resistors should be avoided due to leakage currents at FB increasing the out-
put voltage error. Table 1–1 shows various voltage options and the suggested
resistor values.
