GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM7151 is a low dropout (LDO) linear regulator that
operates from 4.5 V to 16 V and provides up to 800 mA of output
current. Using an advanced proprietary architecture, it provides
high power supply rejection (>90 dB from 1 kHz to 1 MHz),
ultralow noise (1.7 nV√Hz from 10 kHz to 1 MHz), and excellent
line and load transient response with a 10 μF ceramic output
capacitor. The output voltage can be set to any voltage between
1.5 V and 5.1 V with two resistors.

The ADM7151 is available in two models that optimize power
dissipation and PSRR performance as a function of input and
output voltage. See Table 6 and Table 7 for selection guides.
