The OMR9601 is a radiation hardened, ultra low dropout linear regulator designed
specifically for space applications. This product has been characterized to a total ionizing
dose of 1M Rad (Si) per MIL-STD-883, Method 1019, Condition A at both high and low
dose rates under biased and unbiased conditions to account for ELDRE effects in bipolar
devices. The ultra low dropout voltage of 0.4V @ 3A makes the part particularly useful for
applications requiring low noise and higher efficiency.

In order to maintain regulation and stability specified additional input and output bulk
capacitors are recommended. Capacitors recommended above should be low ESR tantalums
with tolerances of ± 20% max. Internal to the product are a 4.7uF input capacitor and a
4.7uF output capacitor in parallel with a 0.33uF ceramic capacitor.
Shutdown: The regulator can be shutdown by applying a voltage > 1.6V to pin 4. The
regulator will restart when the SHDN pin is pulled below the shutdown threshold of 1.0V. If
remote shutdown is not required, pin 4 should be connected to GND to insure a safe “off”
state.
