GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are CMOS, low dropout linear regula-
tors that operate from 1.6 V to 3.6 V and provide up to 2 A of
output current. Using an advanced proprietary architecture,
they provide high power supply rejection and achieve excellent
line and load transient response with a small 4.7 μF ceramic
output capacitor.
allows output voltages that range from 0.75 V to 3.0 V via
an external divider. The ADP1740/ADP1741 allow an external
soft start capacitor to be connected to program the start-up.
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are available in a 16-lead, 4 mm ×
4 mm LFCSP, making them very compact solutions while
providing excellent thermal performance for applications
requiring up to 2 A of output current in a small, low profile
footprint.
The ADP1740 is available in seven fixed output voltage options.
The ADP1741 is an adjustable output voltage version, which
