Microchip Technology, Inc. Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators MIC5236-1.8BMM

The MIC5236-1.8BMM is a low quiescent current, ¬µCap low-dropout regulator designed for applications requiring a stable output voltage with minimal power loss. It supports a maximum input voltage of 30V and can deliver up to 150mA output current with a low dropout voltage of 300mV. The device operates with a quiescent current of only 20¬µA, making it suitable for battery-powered and keep-alive applications. This regulator is stable with both ceramic and tantalum output capacitors, requiring only a 1.0¬µF capacitor for stability. It features a logic-compatible enable input, an undervoltage error flag indicator, and includes protections against thermal shutdown, current limit, overvoltage, load dump, reverse leakage, and reverse battery conditions. The MIC5236-1.8BMM is available in an 8-pin MSOP package and operates over a temperature range of -40¬8C to +125¬8C. Engineers may consider this product for use in automotive electronics, portable computers, and other applications where low power consumption and high reliability are critical.
