CAT6201, CAV6201B
LDO Regulator - Adjustable CMOS
300 mA, 13 V
Description
The CAT6201/CAV6201B is a 13 V rated 300 mA CMOS low dropout regulator that provides fast response time to load current and line voltage changes in an automotive environment.
CAT6201/CAV6201B features a low RON P−channel pass element with internal control circuitry which prevents reverse current flow should the voltage at VOUT exceed VIN as in the case of the car’s battery voltage accidentally being applied to VOUT.
Thermal protection and current limiting circuitry combine to protect the pass device against faults and abuse. Current limiting is user controlled through a single resistor to ground. A fault output (FLT) provides an alert should an over−current event or thermal shutdown occur.
