8186
LOW-DROPOUT, 3.3 V REGULATOR — HIGH EFFICIENCY
Designed specifically to meet the requirement for extended operation of battery-powered equipment such as cordless and cellular telephones, the A8186SLU
voltage regulator offers the reduced dropout
voltage and quiescent current essential for maximum battery life. Applicable also to palmtop computers and personal data assistants, the device delivers a regulated, continuous 3.3 V output at up to 75 mA under normal operating conditions, or to 150 mA (transient) under worst-case conditions. A PMOS pass element provides a typical dropout
voltage of only 85 mV at 60 mA of load current. The low dropout
voltage permits deeper battery discharge before output regulation is lost. Furthermore, quiescent current does not increase as the dropout
voltage is approached, an ideal feature in standby/resume power systems where data integrity is crucial. Regulator accuracy and excellent temperature characteristics are provided by a bandgap reference. An ENABLE input gives the designer complete control over power up, standby, or power down.
