Nanopower LDO for always-on and battery-sensitive rails
The Texas Instruments TPS7A0218PYCHR is a single-output, positive fixed-voltage LDO regulator delivering 200 mA with a quiescent current of 60 nA. The 1.8 V fixed output suits low-voltage digital cores, wireless MCU power domains, and always-on sensor rails. The package (0.64 x 0.64 mm) fits space-constrained portable and wearable designs, while the -40°C to 125°C junction temperature range covers industrial and automotive under-hood environments.
60 nA quiescent current — what it means for battery life
The 60 nA quiescent current is the defining spec for this LDO. Dropout voltage reaches 0.45 V maximum at the full 200 mA load, so the input rail must stay at least that margin above 1.8 V.

Enable pin and protection for robust power sequencing
The Enable control feature lets the system designer gate the output rail. Built-in protection includes over-current, over-temperature, and under-voltage lockout (UVLO).
