DESCRIPTION
The LP3981's performance is optimized for battery
powered systems to deliver ultra low noise, extremely
low dropout voltage and low quiescent current.
Regulator ground current increases only slightly in
dropout, further prolonging the battery life.

2.5 to 6.0V Input Range
300mA Output
Power supply rejection is better than 60 dB at low
frequencies. This high power supply rejection is
maintained down to lower input voltage levels
common to battery operated circuits.
60dB PSRR at 1kHz
≤1μA Quiescent Current when Shut Down
Fast Turn-On Time: 120 μs (Typ.) with CBYPASS
= 0.01uF
The device is ideal for mobile phone and similar
battery powered wireless applications. It provides up
to 300 mA, from a 2.5V to 6V input, consuming less
than 1µA in disable mode.
