LP2950/2951
Micrel
LP2950/2951
100mA Low-Dropout
Voltage Regulator
General Description
The LP2950 and LP2951 are micropower
voltage regulators with very low dropout
voltage (typically 40mV at light loads and 380mV at 100mA), and very low quiescent current (75µA typical).
The quiescent current of the LP2950/LP2951 increases only slightly in dropout, thus prolonging battery life.
This feature, among others, makes the LP2950 and LP2951 ideally suited for use in battery-powered systems.
Available in a 3-Pin TO-92 package, the LP2950 is pincompatible with the older 5V regulators.
Additional system functions, such as programmable output
voltage and logiccontrolled shutdown, are available in the...
