MIC37150/1/2/3
1.5A, Low Voltage µCap LDO Regulators
Features
General Description
• 1.5A Minimum Guaranteed Output Current
The MIC37150, MIC37151, MIC37152, and MIC37153
are 1.5A low-dropout linear voltage regulators that
provide low voltage and high current output with a
minimum of external components. They offer high

temperature), and low ground current.
The MIC37150/1/2/3 operate from an input of 2.25V to
6.0V. They are designed to drive digital circuits that
require low voltage at high currents (i.e., PLDs, DSPs,
microcontrollers, etc.). They are available in fixed and
adjustable output voltages. Fixed voltages include
1.5V, 1.65V, 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V. The adjustable
version is capable of supplying output voltages from
1.24V to 5.5V.
