19-4662; Rev 0; 6/09 www.DataSheet4U.com Low-Noise, High PSRR, Low-Dropout, 120mA Linear Regulator General Description The MAX8940 low-noise, low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator is designed to deliver up to 120mA continuous output current. This regulator achieves a low 120mV dropout for 120mA load current. The MAX8940 uses an advanced architecture to achieve low output voltage noise of 25µVRMS and PSRR of 45dB at 100kHz. The MAX8940 is preset to either 2.8V or 3.0V. Designed with a p-channel MOSFET series pass transistor, the MAX8940 maintain very low ground current (40µA). The regulator is designed and optimized to work with lowvalue, low-cost ceramic capacitors. The MAX8940 requires only 1µF (typ) of output capacitance for stability with any load.
