Product details

Package and mounting — TO-252-3 (DPak)

The SM72238TDE-5.0/NOPB comes in a TO-252-3 (DPak) surface-mount package with a tab for heat sinking. The tab is the output (drain) connection; the PCB copper area under the tab serves as the primary thermal path. For 100 mA at moderate dropout, a 1-inch-square copper pour on a standard 1 oz board keeps the junction well within the 125°C limit. The package is compatible with standard reflow profiles and does not require special handling beyond normal MSL precautions.

Protection and reliability

Built-in over-current and over-temperature protection reduce the need for external supervisory components.

Lifecycle and sourcing

The SM72238TDE-5.0/NOPB is listed as Active with no end-of-life notice. That means it remains in TI's current production portfolio, and there is no last-time-buy pressure. For new designs, this part can be specified without obsolescence risk.

Frequently asked questions

What is the datasheet for SM72238TDE-5.0/NOPB?

Design engineers need pinout, dropout, and absolute maximum ratings to validate fit.

How much does SM72238TDE-5.0/NOPB cost and where can I buy it?

Sourcing buyers require price and stock availability for BOM costing and procurement.

Is SM72238TDE-5.0/NOPB in stock at major distributors?

Inventory status drives purchasing decisions and lead time planning.

What is a replacement or equivalent for SM72238TDE-5.0/NOPB?

Maintenance techs and buyers need compatible substitutes when the part is unavailable or obsolete.

What is the dropout voltage of SM72238TDE-5.0/NOPB?

Dropout voltage is critical for low headroom applications; spec lookup is common.

Is SM72238TDE-5.0/NOPB obsolete or end-of-life?

Lifecycle status affects long-term design viability and supply chain risk.
