KEY FEATURES

The LX8221 contains two fixed
voltage linear regulators combines low
dropout, high accuracy, ultra-low ground
current and fast response in a very small
footprint. Each device can be powered
from a separate supply voltage or the
same supply voltage for maximum
system flexibility.
Using the Enable pin, the regulators is
switched on with TTL logic levels,
which is especially useful for battery-
operated equipment.
Other features
include independent Thermal and Short
Circuit Current protection.
The regulators are stable with a low
value ceramic output capacitors. For
ultra low noise operation a Bypass pin is
brought out to connect an optional
capacitor.
Significant performance
improvements over Bipolar technology
are achieved designing in CMOS:
increased regulator efficiency by
minimizing operating ground current
(typ<100uA) and it is nearly eliminated
(typ<1uA) in shutdown. The PMOS
output transistor allows for ultra low
dropout typically less than 300mV at
100mA.
