MIC37300/01/02/03
3.0A, Low-Voltage µCap LDO Regulator
General Description
The Micrel MIC37300/01/02/03 is a 3.0A low-dropout
linear voltage regulator that provides a low voltage, high
current output with a minimum number of external
components. It offers high precision, ultra-low dropout
(500mV over temperature), and low ground current.
The MIC37300/01/02/03 operates from an input of 2.25V
to 6.0V. It is designed to drive digital circuits requiring low-
voltage at high currents (i.e., PLDs, DSP, microcontroller,
etc.). It is available in fixed and adjustable output voltages.
Fixed voltages include 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V. The
adjustable version is capable of 1.24V to 5.5V.
Features of the MIC37300/01/02/03 LDO include thermal
and current-limit protection, and reverse-current protection.
Logic enable and error flag pins are available on the 5-pin
version.
Junction temperature range of the MIC37300/01/02/03 is
from –40°C to +125°C.
For applications requiring input voltage greater than 6.0V,
see the MIC3910x, MIC3915x, MIC3930x, and MIC3950x
LDOs.
