GM6655
600mA LOW DROPOUT CMOS VOLTAGE
REGULATOR WITH ENABLE FUNCTION
Description
Features
The GM6655 series is a low-dropout linear regulator.
This series is specially designed for battery-operated
systems. The ground current is very low (50µA Typ),
that significantly extending battery life. Low power
consumption and high accuracy is achieved through
CMOS and programmable fuse technologies with the
output voltage range from 1.5V to 6.0V.
Maximum output current up 600mA
Highly accurate output voltage:
±1.5%
Low power consumption
On-chip protections: Thermal, and
Short Circuit
The GM6655 consists of a high-precision voltage
reference, an error correction circuit, and a current
limited output driver. With good transient responses,
output remains stable even during load changes. The
SHDN input enables the output to be turned off,
resulting in reduced power consumption.
Small input/output differential:
600mV at 600mA
Also, the GM6655 having high ripple rejection ratios,
the series can be used with power supply noise. A
470pF capacitor from the bypass input to ground
reduces noise present on the internal reference, which
in turn significantly reduces output noise. If output
noise is not a concern, this input may be left
unconnected. Larger capacitor values Cbp be used, but
results in a longer time period to rated output voltage
when power is initially applied.
The GM6655 incorporates both over-temperature and
over-current protection.
