3 Description
The LM3686 is a step-down DC-DC converter with a very low-dropout linear
regulator and a low-noise linear
regulator optimized for powering ultra-low voltage circuits. It provides three outputs with combined load current up to 900 mA over an input voltage range from 2.7 V to 5.5 V.
The device offers superior featur...
