DESCRIPTION
The LP8340 low-dropout CMOS linear regulator is
available in 5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V and adjustable
output versions. Packaged in the 6ld WSON package
and 3ld PFM. The LP8340 can deliver up to 1.0A
output current.
Typical dropout voltage is 420mV at 1.0A for the 5.0V
version, 540mV at 1.0A for the 3.3V version, 670mV
at 1.0A for the 2.5V version and 680mV at 800mA for
the 1.8V version.
The LP8340 includes a zener trimmed bandgap
voltage reference, foldback current limiting and
thermal overload limiting.
The LP8340 features a PMOS output transistor which
unlike PNP type low dropout regulators requires no
base drive current. This allows the device ground
current to remain less than 50µA over operating
temperature, supply voltage and irrespective of the
load current.
