Introduction

Texas Instruments' TPS7A26EVM-021 EVM helps design engineers evaluate the operation and
performance of the TPS7A26 family of linear regulators for possible use in their own circuit application.
This particular EVM configuration contains a single low-noise, high-PSRR linear regulator for high-speed
communication systems. The regulator is capable of delivering up to 500 mA to the load with low V
V dropout voltage. For stability, use a 0.47-µF (or larger) output capacitor for the TPS7A26.

Before You Begin

The following warnings and cautions are noted for the safety of anyone using or working close to the
TPS7A26EVM-021. Observe all safety precautions.
Warning
The circuit module may be damaged by over temperature. To avoid damage,
monitor the temperature during evaluation and provide cooling, as needed, for
your system environment.
Some power supplies can be damaged by application of external voltages. If
using more than one power supply, check your equipment requirements and
use blocking diodes or other isolation techniques, as needed, to prevent
damage to your equipment.
The circuit module is not a finished product or electrical appliance. The module
does not contain current or voltage thresholds for circuit protection. It must be
used by qualified personnel with additional equipment for evaluation only.
