Microchip Technology, Inc. 1.5V 1.5A Voltage Regulator IC MIC49150-1.5BR

The MIC49150-1.5BR is a linear voltage regulator designed for low-power microprocessors, providing a fixed output of 1.5A with an output voltage of 1.5V. It operates with an input voltage range of 1.4V to 6.5V and requires a bias supply voltage between 3V and 6.5V. The device features a low dropout voltage of up to 500mV and is stable with a minimum output capacitance of 1¬µF, making it suitable for applications requiring fast transient response and low output impedance. This regulator supports both fixed and adjustable output voltages down to 0.9V, and it includes features such as thermal shutdown, current limit protection, and a logic-controlled shutdown option. The MIC49150-1.5BR is available in a 5-pin S-Pak package and operates within a temperature range of -40¬8C to +125¬8C, making it versatile for various environmental conditions. Its typical applications include powering graphics processors, microprocessor core voltages, and low voltage digital ICs.
