DESCRIPSION
The TJ3966 series of high performance ultra low-dropout
linear regulators operates from 2.5V to 6V input supply
and provides ultra low-dropout voltage, high output
current with low ground current. Wide range of preset
output voltage options are available. These ultra low
dropout linear regulators respond fast to step changes in
load which makes them suitable for low voltage micro-
processor applications. The TJ3966 is developed on a
CMOS process technology which allows low quiescent
current operation independent of output load current. This
CMOS process also allows the TJ3966 to operate under
extremely low dropout conditions.

* TJ3966 can deliver a continuous current of 3.0A over the full operating temperature. However, the output
current is limited by the restriction of power dissipation which differs from packages. A heat sink may be
required depending on the maximum power dissipation and maximum ambient temperature of application.
With respect to the applied package, the maximum output current of 3.0A may be still undeliverable.
* When a Pull-Up resistor is connected between V
EN
terminal and V
EN
Signal (or V
IN
line), the resistance
of the Pull-Up resistor should be kept under 10kΩ.
