MARKING
General Description
The G9941 is a high performance positive voltage
regulator designed for use in applications requiring
very low dropout voltage at up to 0.5 Amps. The
G9941 VO output voltage follows the 4.0 times of
VSET voltage until it reaches VIN voltage. The VSET
voltage must be larger than 1V to guarantee VO 4.0
times of VSET. An enable pin further reduces power
dissipation while shut down. The G9941 provides excellent regulation over variations in line, load and
temperature.
The G9941 is available in the power TO-252-5 and
SOP-8 with power pad package.
