DESCRIPTION
Thve SS6732 is a 3-pin low-dropout linear
regulator. The superior characteristics of the
SS6732 include zero base current loss, very
low dropout voltage, and 2% accurate output
voltage.

Low dropout voltage of 130mV at 100mA
output current (5.2V output version).
Guaranteed 300mA output current.
Internal 1.3Ω P-MOSFET draws no base
current.
Low ground current: 55uA.
Accuracy of output voltage 2% of 3.3V/ 3.4V/
3.5V/ 3.6V/ 3.7V/ 3.8V/ 5.0V/ 5.2V.
Input voltage range up to 12V.
Needs only 1µF for stability.
Current limiting and thermal Protection.
conditions from zero up to the maximum
load. Dropout voltage at 100mA output current
is exceptionally low: 130mV for the SS6732-
50 and -52, 180mV for the SS6732-33, -34,
SS6732-35, -36, -37 and -38.
Current limiting and thermal protection are built
in to protect the SS6732 against fault
conditions.
The SS6732 comes in the popular 3-pin
SOT-89 package.

Guaranteed by design.
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low ON time.
Current limit is measured by pulsing a short time.
Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops
100mV below the value measured with a 1V differential.
