PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The SPX2955/56/57 is a low power voltage regulator. This device is an excellent choice for use in battery-powered applications such
as cordless telephones, radio control systems, and portable computers. The SPX2955/56/57 features very low quiescent current
(100µA Typ.) and very low dropout voltage. This includes a tight initial tolerance of 1% max and 2% max., and very low output
temperature coefficient, making the SPX2955/56/57 useful as a low-power voltage reference.
The error flag output feature is used as power-on reset for warning of a low output voltage, due to a falling voltage input of batteries.
Another feature is the logic-compatible shutdown input which enables the regulator to be switched on and off. The SPX2955/56/57 is
offered in 3-pin and 5-pin TO-220 package compatible with other 5 volt and adjustable regulators, in 8-Pin Plastic Dip SO-8 (same pin
out as SPX2951) and surface mount TO-263 packages.
The regulator output voltage (of the 8-pin package and 5-pin TO-220 & TO-263) may be pin-strapped for a 5V and 3.3V or
programmed from 1.24V to 29V with an external pair of resistors. Look for SPX2951 for 150mA and SPX2954 for 250mA
applications.
