3 Description
The LP38690-ADJ and LP38692-ADJ low dropout
CMOS linear regulators provide 2.5% precision
reference voltage, extremely low dropout voltage
(450 mV at 1-A load current, VOUT = 5 V) and
excellent AC performance utilizing ultralow equivalent
series resistance (ESR) ceramic output capacitors.
The low thermal resistance of the WSON and SOT-
223 packages allow the full operating current to be
used even in high ambient temperature
environments.
The use of a PMOS power transistor means that no
DC base drive current is required to bias it allowing
ground pin current to remain below 100 µA
regardless of load current, input voltage, or operating
temperature.
• Dropout Voltage: 450 mV (typical) at 1 A (typical
5-V out)
• Ground Pin Current: 55 µA (typical) at full load
• Adjust Pin Voltage: 2.5% (25°C) accuracy
