AME8842 Datasheet | Analog Microelectronics

Description The AME8806/8809/8842 family of positive, linear regulators feature low quiescent current (30µA typ.) with low dropout voltage, making them ideal for battery applications. The space-saving SOP-8 package is attractive for "Pocket" and "Hand Held" applications. These rugged devices have both Thermal Shutdown, and Current Fold-back to prevent device failure under the "Worst" of operating conditions. In applications requiring a low noise, regulated supply, place a 1000 p F capacitor between Bypass and ground. The AME8806/8809/8842 is stable with an output capacitance of 2.2µF or greater. n Features l Very Low Dropout Voltage l Guaranteed 600m A Output l Accurate to within 1.5% l 30µA Quiescent Current l Over-Temperature Shutdown l Current Limiting l Short Circuit Current Fold-back l Noise Reduction Bypass Capacitor l Power-Saving Shutdown Mode l Space-Saving SOP-8 Package l Factory Pre-set Output Voltages l Low Temperature Coefficient l...
