LT1529-5 3A Low Dropout Regulators with Micropower Quiescent Current and Shutdown

LT1529 LT1529-3.3/LT1529-5 3A Low Dropout Regulators with Micropower Quiescent Current and Shutdown DESCRIPTIO The LT ®1529/LT1529-3.3/LT1529-5 are 3A low dropout regulators with micropower quiescent current and shutdown. The devices are capable of supplying 3A of output current with a dropout voltage of 0.6V. Designed for use in battery-powered systems, the.

Features

of the LT1529 /LT1529-3.3/LT1529-5 include the ability to operate with small output capacitors. They are stable with only 3.3µF on the output while most older devices require between 10µF and 100µF for stability. Small ceramic capacitors can be used, enhancing manufacturabiltiy. Also the input may be connected to voltages lower than the output voltage, including negative voltages, without reverse current flow from output to input. This makes the LT1529/LT1529-3.3/LT1529-5 ideal for backup power situations where the output is held high and the input is at ground or reversed. Under these conditi.
