The LT
®
1764 is a low dropout regulator optimized for fast
transient response. The device is capable of supplying 3A
of output current with a dropout voltage of 340mV. Oper-
ating quiescent current is 1mA, dropping to <1µA in
shutdown. Quiescent current is well controlled; it does not
rise in dropout as it does with many other regulators. In
addition to fast transient response, the LT1764 has very
low output voltage noise which makes the device ideal for
sensitive RF supply applications.
Output voltage range is from 1.21V to 20V. The LT1764
regulators are stable with output capacitors as low as 10µF.
Internal protection circuitry includes reverse battery pro-
tection, current limiting, thermal limiting and reverse cur-
rent protection. The device is available in fixed output
voltages of 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V and as an adjustable
device with a 1.21V reference voltage. The LT1764 regu-
lators are available in 5-lead TO-220, DD and Exposed Pad
16-lead TSSOP packages.
