AP138
300mA Low-Noise CMOS LDO
Features
General Descriptions
- Very low dropout voltage
The AP138 is a positive voltage linear regulator
utilizing CMOS technology. The features that
include low quiescent current (30µA typ.), low
dropout voltage, and high output voltage accuracy,
make it ideal for battery applications. EN input
connected to CMOS has low bias current. The
space-saving SOT23-5L package is attractive for
“Pocket” and “Hand Held” applications.
- Low current consumption: Typ.30µA, Max. 35µA
- Output voltage: 1.8V, 2.5V, 2.8V, 3.0V and 3.3V
- High accuracy output voltage: ±1.5%
- Guaranteed 300mA output
- Input range up to 7.0V
- Thermal shutdown
- Current limiting
- Stability with low ESR capacitors
- Factory pre-set output voltages
- Low temperature coefficient
- Pb-free package: SOT23-5L
This rugged device has both thermal shutdown, and
current limit protections to prevent device failure
under the “Worst” operating conditions.
In a low noise, regulated supply application, a
1000pF capacitor is necessary to be placed in
between Bypass and Ground.
Applications
- Battery-powered devices
- Personal communication devices
- Home electric/electronic appliances
- PC peripherals
The AP138 is stable with a low ESR output
capacitor of 1.0µF or greater.
