DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION
The US1205 device is an efficient linear voltage regulator with better than 1% initial voltage accuracy, very low
dropout voltage and very low ground current designed
especially for hand held, battery powered applications.
Other features of the device are; TTL compatible enable/
shutdown control input, current limiting and thermal
shutdown.
The US1205 is available in fixed and adjustable output
voltage versions in a small SOT23-5 package.

Unless otherwise specified ,these specifications apply over ,Cin=Co=22uF, Io=100uA, Vinmin=2.5V(Adjustable
devices) Vin=Vo+1V(for fixed voltage devices), Vout=Vfb (for adjustable version only), Cbyp=470pF(for fixed output
versions only), Venb=2V and Ta=25°C. Typical values refer to Ta=25 °C.Low duty cycle pulse testing are used
which keeps junction and case temperatures equal to the ambient temperature.
