General Description
The TC55 Series is a collection of CMOS low dropout,
positive voltage regulators that can source up to
250 mA of current, with an extremely low input-output
voltage differential of 380 mV (typ) at 200 mA.
The TC55’s low dropout voltage, combined with the low
current consumption of only 1.1 µA (typ), makes it ideal
for battery operation. The low voltage differential (drop-
out voltage) extends the battery operating lifetime. It
also permits high currents in small packages when
operated with minimum VIN – VOUT differentials.
The circuit also incorporates short-circuit protection to
ensure maximum reliability.
