General Descriptions
The AP138 is a positive voltage linear regulator
utilizing CMOS technology. The features that
include low quiescent current (30µA typ.), low
dropout voltage, and high output voltage accuracy,
make it ideal for battery applications. EN input
connected to CMOS has low bias current. The
space-saving SOT23-5L package is attractive for
“Pocket” and “Hand Held” applications.
This rugged device has both thermal shutdown, and
current limit protections to prevent device failure
under the “Worst” operating conditions.
In a low noise, regulated supply application, a
1000pF capacitor is necessary to be placed in
between Bypass and Ground.
The AP138 is stable with a low ESR output
capacitor of 1.0µF or greater.
Applications
- Battery-powered devices
- Personal communication devices
- Home electric/electronic appliances
- PC peripherals
