GENERAL DESCRIPTION
voltages ranging from 0.75 V to 3.3 V via an external divider.
The ADP1740/ADP1741 allow an external soft start capacitor
to be connected to program the startup. A digital power-good
output allows power system monitors to check the health of the
output voltage.
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are low dropout (LDO) CMOS linear
regulators that operate from 1.6 V to 3.6 V and provide up to 2 A
of output current. These low VIN/VOUT LDOs are ideal for regu-
lation of nanometer FPGA geometries operating from 2.5 V down
to 1.8 V I/O rails, and for powering core voltages down to 0.75 V.
Using an advanced, proprietary architecture, the ADP1740/
ADP1741 provide high power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) and
low noise, and achieve excellent line and load transient response
with only a small 4.7 µF ceramic output capacitor.
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are available in a 16-lead, 4 mm ×
4 mm LFCSP, making them not only very compact solutions,
but also providing excellent thermal performance for applica-
tions that require 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 version that allows output
