nn Cellular Phones nn Battery-Powered Systems nn Noise-Sensitive Instrumentation Systems DESCRIPTION
The LT®1962 series are micropower, low noise, low dropout regulators. The devices are capable of supplying 300mA of output current with a dropout voltage of 270mV. Designed for use in battery-powered systems, the low 30µA quiescent current makes them an ideal choice. Quiescent current is well controlled; it does not rise in dropout as it does with many other regulators.
