, Low Dropout Voltage Linear Regulator
General Description
The RT9068 family are high voltage (60V operation), low
quiescent current low dropout linear regulators capable of
supplying 50mA of output current with a maximum dropout
voltage of 300mV. The low quiescent and shutdown
currents (30μA operating and 2μA shutdown) are ideal for
use in battery-powered and/or high voltage systems.
Ground current is well-controlled in all conditions, including
dropout.
The RT9068 family operates with any reasonable output
capacitors including 1μF low-ESR ceramic types and
features excellent line and load transient responses.
Internal protection circuitry includes reverse-battery
protection, current limiting, thermal shutdown, and reverse
current protection. Output voltage accuracy is ±2% over
the entire line and load range.
These devices are available in 3 fixed-output versions
(2.5V, 3.3V, 5V) as well as a version that supports an
adjustable output voltage (1.25V to 60V). All versions
come in SOP-8 and MSOP-8 packages with an exposed
pad for high power dissipation.
