FIXED 2.5 AND 5 VOLT MINIATURE VOLTAGE REGULATORS
ISSUE 4 - MARCH 2002 DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The ZMR series of three terminal fixed positive voltage regulators feature internal current limit and will shut down under thermal overload conditions making the devices difficult to destroy. The circuit design offers an exceptionally low quiescent current, only 30µA for the 2.5 volt device, ideal for low power applications. The initial devices in the series regulate to 2.5 or 5 volts with a drive capability up to 50mA, however, the flexible design will allow other voltage selections to be made. The device is designed with space saving in mind and is available in the small outline SOT23 package. The device is also available in through hole TO92 package.
