CAT6218
Overview
The CAT6218 is a 300mA CMOS low dropout regulator that provides fast response time during load current and line voltage changes. The quick-start feature allows the use of an external bypass capacitor to reduce the overall output noise without affecting the turn-on time of just 150μs.
- Guaranteed 300mA output current
