DESCRIPTION
The LP38690/2 low dropout CMOS linear regulators
provide tight output tolerance (2.5% typical),
extremely low dropout voltage (450mV @ 1A load
current, VOUT = 5V), and excellent AC performance
utilizing ultra low ESR ceramic output capacitors.
The low thermal resistance of the WSON, SOT-223
and PFM 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 (typ) @ 1A (typ. 5V out).
Ground Pin Current: 55 µA (typ) at full load.
Precision Output Voltage: 2.5% (25°C) accuracy.
