makes it suitable for low power applications and in
battery powered systems. Regulator ground
current increases only slightly in dropout, further
prolonging the battery life. Shutdown logic control
function is available, this means that when the
device is used as local regulator, it is possible to
put a part of the board in standby, decreasing the
total power consumption. Typical applications are
in mobile phone and similar battery powered
wireless systems, portable information
appliances.
SOT23-5L
The LDS3985xx provides up to 300 mA, from 2.5
V to 6 V input voltage. It is stable with ceramic and
high quality tantalum capacitor. The ultra low drop
voltage, low quiescent current and low noise
