Fixed 1.8 V rail in a 4-ball DSBGA
The LP5990TMX-1.8/NOPB is a single-output positive LDO from Texas Instruments that delivers a fixed 1.8 V at up to 200 mA. It comes in a 4-DSBGA package and is rated for the industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. This part is built for noise-sensitive supply rails: its 55 dB PSRR at 10 kHz means it attenuates switching-regulator ripple well into the audio-frequency band, making it a candidate for powering analog front-ends, codec supplies, or sensor bias lines where a clean 1.8 V is critical.
Dropout and quiescent — the headroom numbers
Maximum dropout is 0.25 V at the full 200 mA load. Quiescent current sits at 75 µA, low enough for always-on peripherals in battery-operated gear. The enable pin (Control Features) lets the system shut down the regulator entirely, pulling near-zero current when the rail is not needed.
Lifecycle and sourcing — active, no LTB watch
Texas Instruments lists this part as Active with a ROHS3 compliance rating.
