Claiming to cut dropout voltage by as much as 20% and optimized for low voltage applications where dropout voltage performance is critical for efficiency or long battery life, proprietary IMP37 low dropout (LDO) voltage regulator handles 800 mA loads
Claiming to cut dropout voltage by as much as 20% and optimized for low voltage applications where dropout voltage performance is critical for efficiency or long battery life, proprietary IMP37 low dropout (LDO) voltage regulator handles 800 mA loads with a maximum dropout voltage of 0.95V. Maximum quiescent operating current is 75 mA. Fixed output voltage options are 2.5V, 3V or 3.3V. Regulator outputs are trimmed to 1% accuracy and input voltage range exceeds 5.5V. Short-circuit and thermal protection are provided on-chip. Applications include battery chargers, post regulators for switched-mode power supplies, ISDN and DSL modems and battery powered equipment. Datasheets, samples and production quantities are also available.
