Description
LP38500/2-ADJ, LP38500A/2A-ADJ 1.5A FlexCap Low Dropout Linear Regulator for 2.7V to 5.5V Inputs May 19, 2008 LP38500/2-ADJ, LP38500A/2A-ADJ 1.5A Fl.
National's FlexCap LDO's feature unique compensation that allows the use of any type of output capacitor with no limits on minimum or maximum ESR.
Features
* FlexCap: Stable with ceramic, tantalum, or aluminum
* capacitors Stable with 10 µF input/output capacitor Adjustable output voltage from 0.6V to 5V Low ground pin current 25 nA quiescent current in shutdown mode Guaranteed output
Applications
* Developed on a CMOS process, (utilizing a PMOS pass transistor), the LP38500/2 has low quiescent current that changes little with load current. Ground Pin Current: Typically 2 mA at 1.5A load current. Disable Mode: Typically 25 nA quiescent current when the Enable pin is pulled low. Simplified Comp
