DESCRIPTION
The L4946 is a quad output low drop voltage
regulator. The four outputs are a low drop 10V at
125mA (V
200mA (V
100mA (V
), a 8V at 250mA (VO2), a 5V at
O1
) and a low drop 5V st-by line at
O3
).
O4
The IC includes a monitoring circuit to warn if a
low voltage or no voltage condition is occurring.
V
are offduring st-by mode.

ORDERING NUMBER: L4946
The STCAP pin allows the battery voltage to decay slowly giving theµP time to store data. This
IC is designed for supplying microcomputer controlled systems specially in automotive applications.
